Despite unexpected upturns today in
wheat quotations both at Liverpool and

of prospective better export demand for
wheat from North America, the wheat
market here proved sensitive to AUS

correspondent lifted the estimate of
Australian wheat production $4,000, 900
bushels above earlier figures. On the
other hand, Liverpool reported sellers
scarce, and the amount of wheat on

X-RAY AIDS STEEL MAKERS
TO ADD TO PLANE SAFETY
Metallurgist Describes Use of
Medicines Arm to Discover
Imperfections in Castings.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, September 13.-The
x-ray, an instrument of physicians and
surgeons, has become a tool of the
foundry room and its benefits to the
metal industry have been of consider
able aid to manufacturing, notably in
aviation, according to the statements
of w. L. Fink, metallurgist, before the
National Metals Congress in session
here yesterday.
Aviation has been furthered and
made safer, Fink told the American
Society for Steel Treatment, through
the revelation of defects in metals by
X-ray machines. The equipment is the
same as that used in the medical pro-
fession, he said.
The shadowgraphs of the x-ray
show shyinkage, blow holes, pin hole
porosity and other imperfections in
castings which never would be discov-
cred by other means of examination. he
asserted. AS consequence, the metal
frames of airplanes can be thoroughly
tested before construction of the plane
is completed, safety device that would
be available in no other way.
BY the same means, castings gen.
orally have been improved, Fink de-
clared.
