CHEMISTS NOW HAVE
NEW USE FOR X-RAY
Determination OF FOrmulae for
Alloys Made Possible Through
Extension OF Machines Uses.

State College, Pa, July S.-dP-
Through the use of new N-ray appa-
ratus scientists expect to be able ct
some future date to write prescr1p
tions for alloys Of a certain strength,
weight and size in much the same
manner as engineers design bridges,
DR.. Wheeler P. Davey, of the Penn
sylvania State college, today told the
institute of chemistry of the Ameri-
can chemical society.
This will be possible as a result of
research continuing over period of
years into the molecular composition
of metals and their alloys, the speak
er asserted.
"Sounder metal castings are al
ready being made as a result of
X-ray Investigations, he said.
Studies now in progress at the
Pennsylvania State college and else
where may reveal new alloys and
methods of predicting their proper
ties as certainly as an engineer can
predict the strength of bridge be-
tore it is built"
The scientists believe that many
millions of dollars can be saved an
nually to the nation by the discovery
of the best protective coatings for
metal structures and machinery.

Frank Gilmore, executive secre-

Equity and laid plans for definite
action looking toward an eieh hour

The secretary said the Equity's
business was not that of adjusting
wage disputes, but merely to present
the case of its members. In the event
the industry's chiefs felt they could
not meet the condition. he said, the
Equity would be glad to arbitrate.

areas to combat the boil weevil,
made forest patrols against fire In
the west, and conducted nation wide
work in aerial photography and
mapping.
In the more sensational field of &C
tivities the army has sponsored a
long series of spectacular stunts"
the most important of which was the
round the-world flight Of the Doug
las cruisers. Army fliers, 1t. Kelly
and 1t. Macready piloted an army
plane on nonstop flight from New

many records for speed and endur-
ance, and its flyers have won laurels
by flights to Porto Rico. Panama
