Wind Pressures
Are Being Studied

Washington, Aug. 26.--P) w ind
pressures and wind phenomena are
being studied by the bureau Of stand
ards by methods that involve the ac-
tual production of miniature hurri-
canes, and for purposes that touch
upon problems in a half dozen fields
of human enterprise.
Air pressure that can be produced
by gales is being worked out to a
definite gauge for the bridge and
building builder; while for the auto
mobile industry the tests will deter
mine how much power is required to
remove machine against breeze,
and for the aviator the experiments
are aimed at determining the proper
shapes and curvature of the wings to
reduce air resistance, the stresses
that materials must endure, and the
effects that propellers may attain.
Originally the bureaus work start
ed in wind tunnels, which are tubes of
various lengths and sizes, through
which air is blown in measured speed
and quantity, while the devices and
objects under test are held in the
current. Attached gauges show the
pressure encountered.
The gales the bureau uses are pro-
duced by specially designed batteries
Of air prOpellers, working under con-
troll and measurement. The wind
tunnels can produce gales up to $50
miles per hour.

Trapping on Lakes
Containing Fish to
Be Forbidden in N. ID,

Trapping, on all lakes known to con-
tain fish will be forbidden next win
ter under a ruling just issued by the
state game and fish commission. The
idea, members Of the commission
said, is not only to help protect fur
bearing animals which rapidly are
being depleted but more especially
to protect the fish.
The houses" built by muskrats
and other animals serve as ventila-
tors for the fish and some trappers
have formed the habit of destroying
the houses. As result the lakes
freeze and the fish are smothered,
it was said. The present law for
bids the destruction of such houses
Possibility exists that the commits
sion will recommend to the governor
that he close the season on musk
rats as reports indicate that they are
comparatively scarce this year
Agents for the commission are max
ign survey and will report in Sep
TENDER at which time the matter will
be dec ided.

TAX REFUND ON

Money Return to Lessons Who

Applications for refunds Of taxes
paid on state land purchased on con-
tract but which have subsequently
been returned to the state through
contract cancellation should be de-

General George Shafer has held in an
opinion to j. A. Kramer, auditor for
ramsey county.
Kramer asked whether, under
Chapter 264 Of the 1927 session laws
such refunds could be made and par
ticularly whether such taxes might
be refunded regardless of the date
of the issuance of tax certificates on
such state lands.
If section two Of the law is valid
provision such refunds may be made
the opinion says, but points out that
the attorney generals office already
has advised the state hail insurance
department that the law. in SO far as
it purports to authorize refunds OF
taxes under the circumstances out
lined is unconstitutional.

that section two of Chapter 264 OF
the laws Of 1927, in so far as it pur-
ports to apply to refundments on tax
certificates issued prior to the taking

and invalid" the opinion says. ~,
