COAL CAR SHORTAGE
HELD UNNECESSARY
Commission Says Anthracite Re.
sumption Need Not Cause
ANY Tie-Up.

With proper movement by carriers
and prompt unloading by consignees,
nc coal car shortage should occur, in
the opinion of the Interstate Com
merce Commission.
The commissions statement was
made in connection with an announce
ment that on January 81 the total
surplus of open-top or coal cars ag-
greSated 92,412, of which 52,S94 cars
were represented as surplus in the
anthracite region. The anthracite
companies, therefore, will have an ag
Sregate of about 81 per cent of all
surplus coal cars in their mining ter
ritory when they renew production.
AT this period last year" the
commission said, the anthracite rail
roads were loading about $4,000 cars
of anthracite per week. For n period
of six months following the 1929
strike the production of anthracite
averaged about 3S,5O0 carloads per
week. There were seven weeks dur
ing that period in which production
slightly exceeded 10000 cars per
week ~

SUN RAYS MEASURED
BY NEW INSTRUM MENT
Simple Contrivance Perfected to
Record Intensity of Healing
Short Rays"

BY the Associated Press.
TUCSON. AriZ.. April IA simple
strument-compared with others for
the same purpose-has been perfected
for measuring the intensity Of the
healing short rays of the sun by Dr..
T.. Petit of the Mount Wilson Observe
tory staff of the Carnegie institution.
The apparatus will he installed i'm
the desert sanatorium here by Dr.. -.
r. MacDougal of the Carnegie Desert
Laboratory.
The instrument apparatus is capa-
BILE of great precision and will prove
invaluable in studying the benefits of
various light waves TO patients" said
DR.. MacDougal, 1T consists essen
TALLY of a small chamber containing
a thermocouple sensitive to the short
rays. The chamber js mounted on au
astronomical clock which focuses =.
tubular lens opening directly on the
sun throughout the day. continu-
Gus graphic record is kept. The ma.
chine needs virtually no attention
whereas the spectroscOpic methods oil
measuring the rays require constant
attention.
DR. MacDougaI explained that the
necessary element in the instrument :
construction is an extremely thin
layer Of silver deposited upon a sheet
of quartz used as lens. The silver
coating of the right thickness permits
only the short rays to pass and affect
the thermocouple. a recording gal
vanometer attached TO this puts the
findings in graphic form.
I'm addition to registering the con
stantly changing intensities OF the
short rays" DR.. MacDougal added
"the instrument similarly will record
the green light rays, giving IA basis Of
comparison valuable to the astrono-
mer and which may have a signiti-

SHRINE IN LOUISIANA
MECCA FOR SICK PEOPLE
Saint AMIGO Visited by Many Who
Claim Graces. Favors and Cures
Are Obtained.
BY the Associated Press.


DONALDSONVILLE La. April II.
In the Tcche country of Louisiana
that spot hallowed i'm literature as the
home of the beloved Evangeline-
there is little rural shrine erected
to Saint AMIGO which is attracting
wide attention as a mecca for the sick.
the afflicted and those otherwise in
distress.
Supplicants of the shrine declare
that many graces and favors and
cures have been obtained here.
Several years ago Tony Mosco. II
truck farmer. purchased and brought
back from Italy a statue OF Saint
AMIGO 1t was installed in a small
one-room building on Mosco's farm
near here, but later n modest and uE-
pretentious little chapel at the end OF
a lane was built, and here the statue
was housed.
Most of those who claim TO have
been aided placed on the statue piece
of iewelry ranging in variety from
watch to ring, and so many of these
offerings have already been made that
the statue is literally covered.
Every year the feast of Saint AMIGO
is celebrated by Mosco and his friends.
The celebration is in the form of
solemn high mass at the Catholic
church in Donaldsonville, followed by
an all-day barbecue and picnic in the
vicinity of the chapel. The statue is
carried on the shoulders of several
men in solemn procession from the
little chapel in A Bend to the church
in Donaldsonvilie, and after the mass
it is carried in like manner back TO the
little chapel. after which the barbecue
and picnic begin.
