Atlantis, Ca, Oct. 3O.-(AP)-
Science has tackled the human voice
and out Of the laboratories have
come sound speech for the dumb and
= sound code which may be used
readily to replace all codes used
heretofore in war and peace.
An artificial larynx has been
made to do the work Of the human
vocal chords and voice box in those
persons who have found it necessary
to have this organ removed through
, . malignant disease, said DR.. Ser
gius O. Grace, assistant vice presi-
dent Of the Bell Telephone company,
and scientist in the New York city
laboratories Of the company.
He demonstrated the instrument
ut . session Of the American insti-
tute Of electrical engineers held here
last night.
These persons who lack q voice
box, DR.. Grace pointed out, have no
further use for their throat as far
as breathing or speaking is con-
cerned, but breathe through a small
artificial outlet just about at their
collar bone. They are unable to make
= sound through their mouth.
So far the benefit of these persons
the artificial voice box was made.
1t is composed Of black tube about
quarter Of an inch in diameter
with an enlargement and then a
continuation of the tube, in all about
eight inches long. If air is forced
through the longer tube, the thing
emits sound something like that
of . hand organ. But then if the
other end is placed in the mouth and
the lips and mouth are formed as in
speaking, words themselves become
audible and are clearly distinct.
In persons who have the artificial
breathing opening in their neck, the
latter may be provided with a con-
nection to the "voice box" for the
purpose Of furnishing the air pres
sure. In that case the person car
ries his voice in his pocket and takes
it out whenever he wishes to speak.

Here, as everywhere, the law de-

therefore, Danish hair tonics will

SECURED FROM
CANADA TRAIN
Holdup Staged in Tor
onto Union Station;
Robbe-c Make Es-
cape In automobile

TORONTO, Ont, June 20.-P)-
Six armed men who in n daring mid
night holdup escaped with register
ed mail valued as high as 100000
from an express car Of the Cana
dian National Railways at the Union
station here were being sought
throughout western Ontrio today.
Entrance to the car was gained on
the pretence that the men wanted to
sell a sedan which they had backed
up to the car.
They quickly covered the express
messengers and selecting three reg
istered mail pouches, tossed the
bags into their car and speeded
away.
Police arrived on the scene just
as the robbers car disappeared
around a corner about 100 yards
away
Postal authorities Immediately
started a check of the contents Of
the missing pouches. Although no
official estimate of the loot was
given out, it was reported it might
reach 100000. One bag contained
cash and the other two registered
mail. The car was destined for
Windsor and was attached to a Chi
caGo-bound train.
Early arrival of the police was
due to William Venton. assistant
agent Of the Canadian National
Railways express, who defied the
bandits.
Ordered by the robbers to lie
down on the platform and jabbed in
the stomach with a sawed-off shot
gun and revolver. he got free,
lodged around mail trucks. rushed
into the express office and tele-
phoned police.
