MANGANESE IS
MADE PURE BY
RADIO FURNACE
Announcement Made Of Me-
chanical Servant In Pitts
burgh Today

Pittsburgh, Pa, Oct. 19.-@-
Another mechanical servant for i'm.
proving building materials, q radio
furnace that produces pure manga
nesc in commercial quantities for
the first time, was announced here
today.
Manganese exists in all steels,
with properties Of toughening and
; cutility, and Importance in making
pure alloys. The discovery was an
nounced by the bureau of metal
research at the Carnegie Institute
Of Technology At an open meeting
held jointly whit the United States
bureau Of mines. Those perform
ing the maganese distillation were
DR.. F. NJ. Walters Jr., director, and
Doctors v. N. Krivolok and J. B.
Friauf.
The radio furnace is q super
vacuum-tube. Crude metallic man.
ganese is placed in q crucible made
OF pure magnesia and covered by
another crucible, placed upside down
to collect the distilled metal. These
crucibles are placed inside q fused

and two feet long, closed at both
ends. The air Is pumped out Of the
quartz tube, until there is less than
one twenty-thousandth Of it left.
Around the quartz tube is water
cooled copper coil. Through this
coil is passed an alternating cur
rent Of about two amperes at TOO
volts. The energy from this high
frequency current passes through
the quartz tube, the vacuum and the
crucible walls, and sets up eddy cur.
rents, by induction, which heat the
manganese to its melting point. On
the outside of the quartz the copper
coil Is almost cold, but inside, only
two inches away, the manganese is
50 hot it hurts the eyes to look at it.
The pure manganese has a silver
lustre, and is hard enough to scratch
glass. The form in which the public
knows manganese best is in the
clouds Of reddish smoke from steel
) mills. The substance is lost by
combining with air during steel
making.

Colonel Paul v. McNutt and Mrs.
McNutt, whom he met while in
training camp in 1918.
Bloomington, Ind, Oct. l9.-The
new national commander of the
American Legion is one of those un-
happy Americans whose services
during the World War were highly
essential but not at all spectacular
or exciting.
Colonel Paul v. McNutt, the 81
year-old chieltain of the soldiers
organization, knew too much about
field artillery for his own good.
Because Of his knowledge the army
authorities kept him at San Antonio,
Tex. where he just won election to
the Legion's highest office, train ;ng
artillery units. He was considered
one Of the foremost theoretical field
artillery instructors in the country
and that was just his hard luck,
Colonel McNutt is youthful to be
q national commander; but then. he
has travelled far for his years in
other ways, too. He is dean of the
Indiana University School Of Law,
