A large circular issued by the Hol-
land Furnace Company, of Holland,
Mich, and with branch at 800 Day.
ton street, Hamilton, Ohio, created
much talk and criticism at the regular
meeting of the COOPERATIVE Trades
and Labor Council, Tuesday night.
The circular was received through
the mails and contained few scrib-
bled words which read, Look, see how
many union men you have on this" T"
On one side of the circular appear the
names of every house in Hamilton
that Holland furnace has been in
stalled in, and gives the names of
the owners and in many instances the
tenants of the houses who are not
home owners. 1t appears that the
circular has been issued for the pur-
psoe Of checking the fight that is be-
ing made on the Holland furnaces by
the local Molders' Union No. 68 and
the international Molders' Union
throughout the country.
The intention of the circular is to
give the public the impression that
union men are installing these non
union furnaces in their homes, which
is untrue. The few names of union
men who are listed on the circular
have purchased homes with Holland
furnaces installed and few more list
ed are tenants in houses and had
nothing to do whatever in installing
these furnaces. All of these furnaces
have been installed in the houses
mentioned years ago and long before
the Holland furnaces were placed on
the unfair list by the molders and
the core makers of Holland, Mich.
1t was proven at the meeting of the
central body Tuesday night that the
above statements made by the dele
gates of the local Molders' Union are
facts concerning the union men on
the circular and every case has been
investigated.
The fight that is being waged by
the international Molders' Union
seems to be having it's effect on the
Holland furnaces, and from all indi-
cations the local molders' organiza-
ton will put more vigor in fight to
inform the builders of homes of the
tactics used by the Michigan concern.
Read the following Resolution No.
4, issued by the metal trades depart
ment of the American Federation of

honorable and unfair

Whereas, The Ell Paso convention

Arizona Good Roads
Association
Asks People to Vote Against
Bill IT Once Sponsored

At a meeting OF the Board OF
Directors Of the Arizona Good Roads
Association it was decided to issue this
statement asking the voters generally, to
vote against the Association Highway
Bill, 3O4-3O5, for the following reasons:
In the haste of the last few days of
work on the Bill number of errors and
omissions were made which were not dis
covered until after the Bill was submitted
with its signatures to the Secretary OF
State and then it was too late to make
changes. 1t has been brought out that
the Bill is unfair, in some respects, to the
transportation industry of the state, and
the Association does not wish to be unfair
to any of our industries.
In view of the above conditions. the
Directors of the Arizona Good Roads
Association, an organization which has
for fifteen years been working for the
best interests of the entire state in per-
fecting the system of highways and high
way legislation, is asking the people to
vote against it's own Bill and is directing
its legislation committee to appear before
the Legislature as soon as it isdormed to
work out a better measure.

We discovered clerical error in

X-RAY TESTS ARE
 HIGHLY IMPORTANT
Its lnteraction on Energy and
 Matter Studied

Ithaca, \. Y., May [ LPl-Research in the field of N-rays. now under way at Cornell university has led to the discovery of certain laws gov erning the action and effect of the rays which shed considerable light 'on the present problem of great scientific importance - the interac ton between radiant energy and matter.
 Dr. r. K. Richimyer. professor of physics at Cornell, has established that the absorption Of N-rays in matter is proportional to the cube of their wave length. lis graduate students have demonstrated, to one part in ten thousand, that no change m absorption of the rays is produc- cd when iron is magnetized: that there is a slight change as the tenn perature of the absorber is raised, and that chemical combination seems to change the absorption.
 The students also arc working on tho problem of scattering N-rays, which are spread in much the same manner as dust in a sun beam scat ters light; the effect of various fac .ors, such as temperature, magnetic condition and chemical combination, on absorption, and the polarization ul N-rays,
 Professor Richtmyer asserts the experiments thus far have led to no practical results and that they were undertaken with no thought of their application in industry or elsewhere, except as they have a direct bearing on scientific theories.
 The problems we are studying however, may have q practical ef- feet upon the lives of the future generations" he said. For instance, Ii We knew absolutely what the ef- feet Of N-rays upon matter is, We might have something more of clue as to whether X-rays could cure cancer. We cannot anticipate the commercial or other problems of the future, but We can determine and formulate the laws of nature with the confident expectation that future generations will make use ot these laws in solving their proble,ns."
 Roentgen quite accidentally dis covered N-rays in 1895 when he was working on the discharge of cleo tricity through evacuated tubes, Pro- lessor Richtmycr pointed out. Tt is absolutely certain that if Roent- gen had been interested in finding some way to assist surgeons in set ting bones, he would never have ben studying vacuum tubes and electricity. Yet out of his acci- dental discovery came this new tool Of N-rays which has revolutionized certain phases of medical practice.
 Thus the scientist never knows how close he may be to some mighty discovery. The laboratory experi- ments of today may suddenly divulge

MARTYR OF X-RAY
 CONTINUES WORK
DT. Bateper Determined to Keep
 Up His Studies

Baltimore, May GP,-Dr. Fred Ierick Henry Baetjer, professor of Roentgenology at Johns Hopkins Merical school, is back at the big game of tag with the vengeful slave he is tampering.
 The Last of the Old Guard"- with the scars of the latest of more than three score and ten amputa- |tions and skin grating operations scarcely healed-is rounding out a quarter century of duelling with the dragon that turks in Roentgen's ray. He plans to stay in the fight until ithe rays soaring thrusts finally break down the defense of modern surgery.
 Insidious A-ray burns slowly are eating his body away. They have taken seven of his fingers and one
 of his thumbs, and the glands from his right arm and shoulder. Seventy as many times has Dr, Bacter's medical colleagues succeeded in staying the attack. But each burn has left it's mark.
 Dr. Baetier is daring a demon that has slain many of his early co-work- CTS in Roentgcnology. One Of the Hast to die was Prof J. Bcrgonie, .an outstanding authority whose work had been contemporary with Dr. Baetjer's. Surgeons see like fate .awaiting the Johns Hokpins profes- sor-but he goes on, displaying his contempt for the X-ray's death threat in writing whimsical rhymes and jingles.
 In common with his associates, Dr. Baetjer engaged in Roentgenologica research when knowledge of the ray and It's potency was in it's infancy. It was some time after the discov- cry of the X-ray that it's effect on the human body began to be under stood, and in those pioneer days neither screens which today protect N-ray operators. nor the need for them, was known. While a patient undergoing X-ray treatment would be exposed to the ray for only a fraction of a second, the carly day operators were subjected to the rays full power for long periods. They suffered severely or paid with their lives for the knowledge that has contributed much to the pres ent day safety of X-ray control.
 Dr. Baetjer began his experiments in 1901, immediately after his grad uation from Johns Hopkins medical school In few months the ray had started train of destructive burns. In its incipiency, the effect of prolonged exposure 10 the Roent- gen ray resembles sunburn. If ex- posture is repeated, as is was in the
