Machine InventedWhich
Will Work Mathematics

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Oct. 90
A much improved computing device
which can solve intricate mathe-
NAUTICAL problems and will therefore
replace a considerable number of en-
ployees of engineering firms has
been invented.
Into this mechanical mind can be
fed the condition of a mathematical
problem too complex for the human
brain to master, and it will promptly
grind out the answer and write it
down, as efficiently as a machine
takes in lumber and chemicals and
produces finished boxes of matches, I"
read an astounding announcement
from the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology today.
The thinking machine" was in
vented by DR.. Vannevar Bush, Pro-
lessor of Electric Power transmits
sion, and a staff of research workers
including F. G. Kear, H. l.. Hazen,
H. r. Stewart and F. D. Gage.
1t is called "The Product Inte-
graph" Work was begun on it sevs
eral years ago to meet the need for
a machine which would automatically
solve problems of advanced electrical
theory rapidly and accurately.

purchase military supplies for the
armies of Admiral Kolchak and other
Observation-Disclosures, who invaded
Russia and attempted to overthrow
the Soviet government. 1t is obviously
the height of unfairness for our gov
eminent to insist upon collecting from
the Russian government the cost of
the munitions which were used in an
attempt to crush it. Yet the commits
sar for foreign affairs of the Russian
government expressed to us his will
ingness to admit even this claim, pro-
vided that he can in return file claims
for the damages done to Russian prop
erty by American armies and by the
munitions furnished by the United
States. We should not forget that,
without any declaration of war on our
part, an American army invaded Rus
STA in 1918 and helped to kill Russian
citizens and to destroy Russian prop
erty in the Archangel district. An
American detachment also accompan-
led Kolchak's Army and, although it

the moral support of America to the
counter-revolutionary forces and oper-
ated railroads for their benefit. The
munitions bought with money furnish
ed by the United States were also
used to damage Russian property, as
those of us who have seen the depre-
dations wrought by Kolchak's Army
in the Ural districts and in Siberia
can testify. Russia's claim for COM
pensation on these counts seems per-
fectly valid"

Governor Smith Pardons
CRATER; Petty Larceny
May Mean a Life Term

ALBANY, N. Y, Oct. 2O.--Gov-
ernor Smith today commuted the
two-year prison sentence of T. For
rest Brown, of Amsterdam, former
County Treasurer of Montgomery
county.
Brown was convicted of misappro-
priating several thousand dollars of
county funds. He was sentenced in
November, 1926, to minimum term
expiring Sept. q, 1928.
The governor said he had received
a letter from County Judge George
G. Butler, who imposed sentence on
Brown, urging executive clemency.
This is in the same estate where
men are sentenced to life imprison-
ment for petty larceny if it is the
fourth offense.

Bootleg King Calls
Cabinet Member in
His Murder Trial

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Oct. 20.--The
Remus trial is taking on a serious as
pect for some government officials,
including one member of President
Coolidge's cabinet. The former "boot-
leg king" is desperate, with his back
to prison wall and his face to the
gallows, and he is carrying out his
threat to expose lot of things about
prohibition enforcement if he is put
on trial.
Want Evidence On Agent.
The cabinet member is Attorney
General John H. Sargent, whose depo-
sition is now sought.
In addition, Mrs. Mable Walker

ton Commissioner David H. Blair, and
many other minor officials have been
subpoenaed and are expected to give
important testimony.
According to Attorney Elston, the
purpose of taking dispositions from
Sargent and others in Washington is
TO have advantage of the information
gathered by Tom Wilcox, agent in
charge Of the Detroit office of the
Department of Justice during the
governments investigation of the ac-
tivities of Franklin L. Dodge, Jr., for
mer ace of the Department of Justice,

3 Shot Dead in Chicago

CHICAGO, Oct, 1.-TWO young
women were shot to death and their
bodies thrown from speeding auto
mobile here early today. One hundred
yards from the spot where the bodies
lay, the automobile crashed into a
telegraph pole and was demolished.
IN the wreckage of the machine was
found the body of Wilfred Winters, 81,
who had been shot through the head.
One of the girls was identified as
Frances Martin, student. Efforts
are being made to identify the second
body. There have been many such
murders in Chicago.

the labor-hating reputation of the
presiding Judge.
Enthusiastic Meeting.
The answer to the prison sentence
imposed upon the three loyal union
lists was an enthusiastic meeting of
capmakers held last night. Speakers
at the meeting challenged the bosses
and warned them that they would
fail in their efforts to weaken their
organization. "We~will continue to
fight to maintain our working condi-
tons and wage standards and every
attack of the bosses will solidify our
ranks"
The capmakers unanimously pledg-
ed to support the families of the i'm
prisoned workers and carry on the
work of the union with greater devo-
ton than ever.

Active in Strike.
The workers are among the most
active in the Local, and aroused the
enmity of the bosses, especially dur
ing the last general strike which won
for the Boston capmakers a 40-hour
week and an increase in wages. Ev-
cry means conceivable was utilized by
the bosses to break that strike, and
the assault" frame-up was but one
of their desperate moves to break the
ranks of the striking workers.
Evidence Weak.
The three capmakers must serve
prison terms despite the fact that
they furnished convincing alibis to
prove that they had nothing to do
with the assault. The conviction was
not complete surprise to the work
ers who were aware of the Massachu-
sets hysteria following upon the ex-

Engine Crew Dies AS
Track Is Weakened

HALLSTEAD, Pa, Oct. 20.-The
Lackawanna tracks were not either
built heavy enough to withstand the
fall rains nor inspected often enough
to prevent a passenger train from
running into washout. So Newton

They threw the airbrakes an d
stopped the rest of the train in time
to prevent any other cars than the

ENGINEER FIRMS
CONSIDER ENDING
ALI. ARBITRATION
Technical Congress Has
Motion to War on Labor

YORK, Pa, Oct 20.-The congress
Of Engineering societies opened here
today with the introduction Of a reso-
luton which recognizes a state of war
on organized labor in the building
trades. This comedies with the re-
cent attacks by New York building
contractors on the union scale. Among
q list Of subjects relating to better
highways, changes in the national
government so as to concentrate the
contracting power in the Department
Of the Interior, Of which Albert F.
Fall was lately the head, and patent
office suggestions intended to make
less valuable the holding of patent
by the inventor, comes motion to
recommend liquidation of the national
board of jurisdictional awards in the
building industry.
Line Up With Boss.
The engineering and architectural
firms represented here are sometimes
themselves contractors, and even
when not are the high-priced techni-
cal men, who draw up plans and esti-
mates for building. Their adhesion to
the newly developed policy of aggres-
siveness by building contractors in
New York and other cities against
the building trades, and the present
hardly concealed open shop drive, was
expected, The presiding officer at the
congress is Dean Dexter S. Kimball,
of Cornell University.
The building trades department of
the American Federation of Labor has
already withdrawn from the national
board of jurisdictional awards joint
committee of arbitration, because of
the crudely unfair decisions it has
rendered Until now, however, the
board has been kept running by the
employers, apparently as a part of
their campaign for public sympathy
in the impending period of lock-outs
and strikes.
Don't Want Settlement.
The members of engineering firms
SdtIlSLSQ HGlS, IlOWSNCI, appear W NC
back of the resolution, sponsored by
Rudolph P. Miller, of New York, rep
resentative of the council on the
board, of which he is also chairman,
which will recommend to the Amer
lean Institute of Architects, the As
ISOLATED General Contractors of
America, and the National Associa-
tion of Building Trades Employers
that the whole plan Of settling labor
disputes within the building industry
through the board be abandoned.
Want New U. S. Department.
Formal announcement was made to-
day Of the adoption by the council of
new plan of u. S. government reor-
ganization, under which the entire
public works functions of the govern
rnent would be transferred to the De-
partment of the Interior, in which a
major division Of public works would
be created. The plan has been en-
bodied in bill to be introduced at the
coming session of Congress by Rep.
Adam M. Wyant, of Pennsylvania.
