NEW MENACE
 THREATENING
 HEALTH NOW
Impurities in Air Is Delay ing Progress of
 Sanitation

PITTSBURGH, Jan. 24-Impuri menace to health, in the opinion of Professor Samuel E. Dibble head of the department of plumb ing, heating and ventilating at the Carnegie Institute of Tech nology. s
 Although we have, by intelli. gent legislation, cut down the death rate as far as the purity of our water and food supplies are concerned" he says, i've have done very little to purify the air and this is the principal factor now delaying the progress of sanitation.
 "The death rate per thousand from disease germs carried by food has gradually decreased in the past few years. Sanitary laws pure food laws and laws requiring sanitary conditions at the sources of food gathering. handling, pack ing and shipping have brought about this improvement.
 "The death rate caused by dis ease germs which enter the body through drinking water has gradu- ally decreased also This is di direct result of purifying all the water which is used.
 But when we consider air the third element that introduces disease to the body-conditions are far different. The death rate caused by disease germs entering the body through the air we breathe has Gradually increas sd. The solution Q the menace of i'm pure air is to purify all the air we breathe. This can be done by Keeping out of the air that which contaminates it."
 Carbon monoxide gases general ed by hot water heaters and gas stoves that are not equipped with flues are health menaces to 90 per cent of Americas housewives, Professor Dibble asserts. Bitum- inous coal smoke is listed as aa- other hazard.
 Examine the lungs of a per son from such a district as St. Louis, Cincinnati Chicago, Pitts bnrgh and other cities where soft coal smoke is polluting the air, and you will find them like ebony" he declares. While smoke abatement regulations are doing some good in these cities. the abatement laws should be more, rigidly administered.'
 Faulty plumbing systems and methods of garbage and refuse disposal are other sources of dis ease germs transmitted by air, Professor *Dibble points out.

BRITISH CHEMISTS SEEK METHOD
 TO TURN GOLD INTO TIN, COPPER

LONDON, Jan. 24-The old al- chemists tried to turn tin and copper into gold. But British sci entists are now thinking of going them one better, by turning gold into tin and copper
 Copper and tin deposits are rapidly running out, while tue gold supply continues undiminis.i- ed. In time, scientists here soS copper and tin will become s1 valuable that it will pay chemists to transform gold and silver into these more useful metals.
 British scientists, in an inte.si view in the Daily Mail, say there is only about 100 years supply Of copper in the world. Cables and electrical devices are using up great quantities of it. The mar velous durability of gold will make it good substitute for con per when the time comes that gold is more plentiful than cops per.
 The alluvial deposits of tin il Cornwall have all been worked out, and the only tin now pro- duced there is from vein mining. Five.sixths of all the tin in the world is obtained from such al-' luvial deposits. England is de- pending on such small areas as Guiana, Bolivia and Straits Set dement's for nearly all the tin which goes into commodities in- dustrially indispensable.
 By encouragement of the cleo irons of gold, scientists say they may some day be able to trans mute gold into the baser metals, just as the alchemists tried vainly-to transmute the baser metals into gold.
 Failing that, scientists are look. ing about for a method of extract ing material from space, accord ing to the published symposium
 Astronomers have recently dis covered that there is in certain stars peculiar sort of matter 20.000 times as heavy as the ordi. nary earthly matter we know" scientist is quoted as saying. "A piece of it the size of golf ball. if placed on table, would simply crash through the table, and pos sibly through the floor.
 Now that we know such mat ter exists in the universe we can predict that in the future. by mar shalling our electrons and setting them to work, we shall be making this heaviest-known matter here on earth. Think of it's power iii explosive shells for the nation which first ferrets out the secret

Thrifty Frenchmen
 Used Stamp Twice

PARIS, Jan. 24.-Those thrifty Frenchmen who carefully "recov- cred" the anti-tuberculosi stamps on letters and used them again are out of luck. The government has decided to cancel all stamps of the sort, even though they are not official. Evidence that in some cases stamps were being used three or four times led to the decision.
 Some persons, thinking the new anti-tuberculosis stamps were an issue of the post office depart ment, used them as regular stamps In each case the receiv- Ter Of the letter paid the bill.

which he expresses the belief that
