Leaves Hair Twice
 as Beautiful

The simple hair styles of today make beautiful hair a necessity. Luckily, beautiful hair is now cas- fly obtaineS It is simply matter Of shampooing.
 Proper shampooing makes the hair soft and silky. It brings out all the real life and lustre, all the natural wave and color, and leaves it fresh looking, glossy and bright. While your hair must have ire quent and regular washing to keep it beautiful, it cannot stand the harsh effect of ordinary soaps. The free alkali in ordinary soaps soon dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle and ruins it.
 That is why discriminating wom- en, everywhere, now use Mulsified Cocoanut Oil Shampoo. This clear, pure and entirely greaseless product brings out all the real beauty of the hair and cannot possibly injure.
 Two or three teaspoonfuls is all that is required. It makes an abund- ance of rich, creamy father which cleanses thoroughly and rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust. dirt and dandruff.
 It leaves the hair soft and easy to manage and makes 1t fairly sparkle with new life. gloss and lustre.
 You can get Mulsifed Cocoanut oil Shampoo at any drug store.
 A four-ounce bottle lasts for months.

MENTAL TELEPATHY IN RADIO TESTS
British Fans Will Take Part in
 Tonight's Experiments

London. Feb. 1s (UP)-For the second time in six months radio will be used tonight as link in a mental telepathy test reaching mill lions of owners of radio receiving sets in England. At exactly eleven p. m. radio fans will be asked by Sir Oliver Lodge, famous exponent of spiritualism to try to learn by telepathic communication the nature Of series of objects which com mencing at that moment will be shown one at time to group Of students of psychic phenomena clos eted in the offices of the psychical Research society in London.
 The test is going to be on strict ly scientific lines, and every effort will be made to exclude the possi- bility of fraud" said Dr. V. J. Lool- leh, research investigator for the society in an exclusive interview with the United Press. "The group at the offices of the society will be shown a number of objects that l will select, and which nobody but myself will have known of before hand. AS I show them the objects ] will ask them to concentrate their thoughts on them. Simultaneously Sir Oliver Lodge in the offices of the British Broadcast company, after having explained the nature of the test. will say that the objects are now being shown and he will ask radio listeners throughout England to concentrate and see if they get any telepathic reaction from the group in the offices of the society. If they do they will be asked to write them down and mail them to the society.
 The test will be of great scien- tific interest" continued Woolley, because it is only since the advent Of radio that any test on such a vast scale as this has become pos- sible.
 Almost everybody has heard within their own experience stories of telepathic communication, or mind reading, under stress of great crises or emotional moments. These stories may, or may not, be true. or may or may not be accounted for. But whether such telepathic com munication can be invoked without the pressure of a great emotional crisis is something we should be interested in learning"

STICKERS BANNED BY LAW
Corporation Counsel Kirkham Pre- parcs Opinion in Response to Agi- tation By Councilman Sablotsky.

Corporation Counsel John B. Kirkham has prepared an opinion for the common council that exist ing statutes are sufficiently strong to prevent advertisers from placing gummed stickers on the windows and doors of properties other than their own. Councilman Samuel Sa- blotsky presented a resolution last week asking that ordinances be prepared to wipe out this practice in the event that the corporation counsel finds there are no present laws covering the point. The coun- cilman argued that through this practice some advertisers are seizing upon property rights over which they have no claim.

.DEFECTIVE METAL
 CAUSE OF CRASH
M. l. I. Professor Makes Report on Shenandoah Disaster

New Haven, Feb. 16 P-Defects in the metal work of the Shenan- doah were the real cause of the crash over Zanesville. Ohio, on Sep tember 3, 1925. according to Prof. George L. Clark, director Of the research laboratory of the Massa- chusetts Institute of Technology in an exclusive interview with the New Haven Register.
 For many months Prof. Clark has been making minute studies of metal sections of the giant dirigiblc in the X-ray laboratories of the uni versity and these have led him to the conclusion that defects in the metal, rather than the fury of the storm through which the Shenan- doah was riding. caused the tragedy. he told the Register.
 T have said more than has been said before" Prof. Clark told the Register, "and while We will know more in a month than we know now, there is no doubt but that the metal at the breaking point was defective.
 Tt may have been caused by inn proper treatment during the manI- facture of the alloy, or it may have been caused by the effects of vibra- tion and weather.
 The results of our study do not place the responsibility for the crash upon manufacturers Of the metal of the dirigible. It was merely a case of inadequate knowledge. When the shin was built we did not know so much about N-ray examination of metals, and there was no way of dis covering defects in the framework. '
 The official report of the crash will be ready for the government in a. month or two he said.
 Of the process of examination by which his conclusions have been drawn Prof. Clark said:
 We have found that duralium and other similar alloys undergo changes with ageing and vibration and our research into the cause of the crash has been delayed by the fact that w6 wanted to make some ageing test.
 We have placed particles of the metal from the sections near the fracture in the framework Of the Shenandoah under minute N-ray examination, photographed them, and have found that the molecules have become disarranged. speci- mems taken from other parts of the ship showed the metal to be in good condition.
 The navy has asked us to con- tinue our studies of aluminium all Joys for aircraft, and we are now engaged in an extensive research to find the strongest possible material for the great new dirigible which the navy plans to build.
 When the framework of the new ship, which will have a cubic capa- city Of nearly three times the vol ume of the Shenandoah is built, we will be able to discover with cer- tainty any defects in the material. We will also have more information on the effects of weather and yibra- ton on the aluminium alloys
 Prof. Clark was here to address the annual meeting of the Connecti- cut Society Of Civil Engineers, in an- nual session at Yale.

Letters From Our Readers

The Electric Chair Civilization.
Editor, The DAILY WORKER,
Dear Friend and Brother by struggle:
When Y stop to think about that
black hour when the thunderbolt
crashed through the hearts of two
innocent people, | shudder at the
meaning Of this so called civilization.
That judges, and professors, presi-
dents of the most exalted social in
stitutions, should seal human destinies
behind closed doors, and wreak
vengeance in the most brutal way, is
vision beyond comprehension. Why
these silk HATED cannibals don't scat
ter dust and ashes over their heads,
and raise voice toward heaven, cry
ing "Hypocrisy!" that their ears may
hear and the ..~..y j. tremble at what
they did on August %! Miserables
the coming generations will spit in
the face Of this monstrous barbarism
you style civilization!
Yet they triumph. Let them
triumph Let them terrorize during
their day. We know, and history tells
US that the ultimate victory belongs
to the masses.
No gallows and electric chairs shall
stop the victorious onward march of
humanity. If they killed two
fighters, thousands will spring into
their place to carry the torch Of revo-
luton against grinding conditions. In
fact Sacco and Vanzetti are not dead.
Their bodies are gone, but their
spirits remain more truculent than
ever before. They were men, now

THE TRIP OF THE DICTIONARIES
BY EDW. W. CONNAWAY.

There was Carl LIE Mon the bankers son
And a sheik from the boulevard,
The senator's boy, his pride ana JOY,
With the bootegger's son for pard;
Then catching step, the merchants kid
Hooked arms with the mayors hope,
And the brat Of an Irish ward boss
Palled up with prosperous dope;
yegg and his pal who had cracked crib,
And a six-foot minister's pride
Drank booze and joked with half dead soak
On this world famed drunken ride.
But where are Bill and Ike and Phil,
And Tryako and the fighting Finn,
Who waded thru mud and quits and blood
To see democracy win?
