GIVES DATA ON
sun ENERGY

FOR the first time one of the
mysteries of centuries the source cf
energy which permits the stars IN
range ii tenperature UP To 4oF
0O0. 900 degrees centigrads has been
answered
Pointing ont that surface tenapera.
lures Of the stars range from 5000
degrees centigrade for the red
giants to 1900 degrees Tor such 8
star IS Rigel, ana the suns 5000
degrees. Or e. q. Abbot, OF smith
sonian institution, showed that
science has proven interior heat Of
the stars to reach 40 million degrees.
What IS the source Of energy
which naaintains the tremendous
outward flow Of stellar radiation7
For the first time, according 20
DR., Abbot an adequate answer has
been brought forward.
Now that atoms ara shown 70
consist entirely of groups Of equal
electrical charges. positive and neg.
atfve, supposed 10 remain separate
by virtue OF orbitRl notion II IA
conceived that under the circun1-
stances of exalted temperature and
pressure prevailing within stars,
union OF these electric particles
may occur, with annihillation Of
mass and liberation Of energy. DR..
Abbot declared.
II this is so, our SUN can con.
tinue to maintain the present rate
OF solar radiation for some fifteen
triilion years"
Abbot declared that the free adj
mission Of all the rays of the sun
and stars. II admitted to the earth's
surface, would destroy our sight by
chemical action. On the other
hand. IL the protecting ozone layer
Ii the upper atmosphere cut off
just g fraction more OF the spec.
trum of the sun. human and AMI
NAL young all would be stricken
by ricketts,.
Touching on solar radiation and
the dependence OF life thereon, Alb
bot showed that this dependence
rests on q very narrow margin Of
safety. Certain extreme ultra
violet solar rays synthesize a layer
Of ozone out Of the oxygen In the
upper air. This protecting element
II brought to sea level would make
a layer Of ozone aaA about as thick

Search for U. S. Girl
In EurOpe Is Futile

The initial efforts Of the State
Department to trace nine-year-old
Lucienne Nolan in Germany has
resulted in failure.
At the request of Representative
Gallivan (D) of Massachusetts,, the
American consul at Munich ques-
toned a woman named Emma
Prieth at Trauenstein, Bavaria, but
she refused to give any information
and referred all questioners to Will
liam Grossmith. an attorney OF
Hartford, Conn.,, and DR.. j. X.
Hunt. as West Fifty.fifth ST.. New
York.
The girls mother started an in
ternational search for her some time
ago following the death Of the
child's father in Switzerland. The
Nolans had been separated, the
father retaining the child, and the
mother married again.
