ATOMS, INVISIBLE,
ARE PUT TO WORK
Dr.. Whitmore Tells Chemists
of Harvesting of Minute
Particles.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, August @ Atoms, the
little invisible particles so minute they
have been harnessed by chemists tC
change naturally deadly poisonous sub
stances into sweet smelling perfumes
dyes. valuable drugs and explosives.
DR.. Frank c. Whitmore, head of the
chemistry department Of Northwestern
University. told the American Chemical
Society Institute today how chemists
have mastered the secret of these
atoms, until as much is known about
them and their actions as If they actu-
ally were seen.
The chemist has learned enough
about the atoms, which really are the
building stones of which all material
things are composed. so that he can
put them together and build them up
into complicated materials with the
same skill that the modern builder
uses bricks. stone and mortar" DR.
Whitn1ore said.
In the field of organic chemistry
which Is the chemistry Of all substances
containing carbon as an clement, most
progress has been made in studying
the atom. Many millions of different
materials contain carbon and chemists
have studied them so thoroughly that
they know exactly what kind of atoms.
how many atoms of each kind and the
way the atoms are fastened together
in each of more than 100000 of the
substances, DR.. Wi1itmore said
Not only has the chemist found that
by changing the numbers of the same
kinds of atoms he can change the
properties of the substances, but he
has found that he can use not only
the same kind Of atoms, but the same
numbers Of atoms and still get entirely
different sets Of properties by changing
the ways these atoms are fastened
together" DR. Whitmore declared.
There are often hundreds of kinds of
different substances which contain ex-
actly the same kind of elements and
exactly the same number of atoms of
each element, but have entirely differ
ent properties

STATES LOOSEN|NG
OLD SPEED LAWS
Increasing Limits in Interest
of Safety Evident, Accord
ina to the A. A. A.

| A tendency on the part of States to
increase speed limits in the interest of
safety is becoming increasingly evident
In the eyes of the American Automobile
Association.
Results Of survey conducted by the
association show that within the past
| three years a total of % States have
wiped out obsolete" speed laws and
that the move on" signal in the open
country, together with drives to elim-
mate speed traps and roadside courts,
! has done much to facilitate the move
ment of the ever-increasing number of
automobiles"
Divorcing Speed and Recklessness.
| The association. reported there had
| been a very notable development In
| the tendency to divorce speed and reck-
lessness and to judge the recklessness
! of the driver on the facts in the case
and the situation confronting him,
rather than on the mere question as
| TO whether or not he was overstepping
a speed limit at the time of the ac-
cidert."
secondly" 1t said. there was q
very marked increase of opinion in fa-
ror of minimum speed laws, this
thought being advanced by State off,
cials who have observed over a long
period of time that many accidents are
due to people taking chance in get
ting out of the line of Slow-moving
traffic. While. Of course, the practice
of leaving the line always involves
serious hazards. experience is driving
home the fact that vehicles moving at
an unnecessarily slow rate are PROV
ing one of the worst nuisances on the
road today"
Cut Down Accidents.
States having speed laws allowing
the motorist to step on 1t" out in the
open. the survey showed, have con-
ritbuted less to the accident list than
those with obsolete regulations"
The States which have raised their
speed limits in the past three years and
their old and new maximum rates
were listed as follows:
Alabama, 30 to As miles an hour,
Arizona, 90 to 35 Connecticut, 80 to
proper and careful operation Flori-
da, 30 to AS; Georgia. 80 40 Idaho.

RED LODGE GOLF
COURSE RAPIDLY
NEARING SHAPE

L. L. Folsom, golf professional,
working with A. D. Williams and a
crew of men, are rapidly Willing the
Red Lodge golf course into shape,
One breen is at present in fine shape
except for a coating of oil and it will
not be many days until the entire
course will be cleared Of sage brush
and rock and the other green finished.
1t had been intended to have an
opening day Sunday, but in view of
the fact that only a part of the course
would be in shap, it has been post
poned. However, an opening day will
be announced later and at that time
preparations made for entertaining
a large number of out of town visitors.
The shelter house has been COM
pleted and as there is a membership
of about 70 at the present time, it is
thought enough more can be found
ready to join so that permanent
club house can be erected at once.
