But so low does it sit that the closer positions of some in tcrvcning mountains show only in their sharper lights and shadows.
 Stevens took pictures successfully also from 214 miles. One of the views at that distance shows Rain ! fer even more shadowy than the longer shot--simply a gray trian- gle, detached from earth The flier believes he can take pictures still farther with the present camera.
 He came here a few days ago to cooperating i'll the work, which is authorized by the war department | because of valuable contributions to military photography expected to re- suit. Stevens talked with experts of 1 the Eastman Kodak Company, Fol mer GrafleX corporation and DauSch & Lomb Optical company. His special camera has a 12-inch focal length lens, the only one of it's kind existing, speed f5 This lens pierced haze and smoke that even a telescope would not have opened to eyesight. It uses, in ad- dition to light, vibrations which are half heat and half light, but wholly invisible to the eye.
 They are infra-red rays, of wave lengths so long that they get through fog better than light does That is, they hit the camera plate much in the pattern in which they left the object on the other side of the curtain of haze.
 Development of photographic plates even more sensitive to these long rays is under way, opening possibilities of bringing still more distant objects into view. Krypto- Cyanine has been much used as an infra-red sensitizCr. Now this prep aration has little brother, Neocy- anime, Q youngster whose special merit is to take in a wider band of invisible rays than the older sub stance.
 The 227 mile photograph Captain Stevens thinks may yield important measurements concerning the pos sible curvature of light rays around the earth's surface.
 These measurements would bear on the possibility of pointing cam- era at some object actually below the horizon, and yet obtain q like ness or an inkling of it by rays which had curved,
 Differences in density Of the at mosphere might affect the direction of light apprcciably over long dis tances. Computations on light curva- ture possibilities will require a good deal of time.
 Stevens was war photographer. His "bis experience" had nothing to do with photography. but is typi- cal of his unbound curiousity. He was flying over Dayton. his home and had finished picture taking.
 At 24,o00 feet he began to won der what a parachute jump feels like.

Steamer Turns Back;
 COllides With Lighter

New York, Oct. 21 P1A colli- sion with a railroad lighter Satur- day forced the liner Henry R. Mal- lory to return to port today.
 The collision occurred as the liner nosed into midstream to start it's voyage to Miami and Galveston. when a ferryboat leaving a nearby slip compelled the pilot of the liner to swing his wheel. The vessel re- sponded, but was swung by the tide and collided head-on with the lighter.
 The collision buckled and loos. ened the liners bow plate, but Cap- tain E. D. Johnston believed tho ship seaworthy and proceeded. Re- ports of heavy weather to the south, however, forced him to turn back yesterday when the ship was off the Delaware Capes, The vessel was then taking water in the for ward bulkhead.

MANY DIPLOMATS
 QUIT IN DISGUST
Dissatisfaction With Promotion
 System Causes Changes

Washington, Oct. 21 P)-Recent resignations of several high officials of the foreign service have severely depleted the upper ranks of Amer ican diplomacy.
 While the state department usual y declines to comment on resigna- ions, it was estimated by well in formed persons in the department today that more than 50 member of the diplomatic personnel will have been dropped from the list for one or another reason before December 31.
 Six to Enter Business
 Outstanding in the recent resig- (atlons were those of six high of iclals Of the foreign service to en- CT the banking or oil business.
 The reason generally assigned for 'he resignations is the dissatisfac ton of members of the diplomatic personnel with the present promo ton system. Since most members of the foreign service enter the de- partment at the age of 25, 1t is es timated that under the present sys- tenn diplomat would reach the age of 5 or GO before attaining the ranks of consul general in the con- sular service or counsellor of em- bassy in the diplomatic service.
 The most outstanding case at the present time, in the opinion of some diplomatic officers is the sta tus of the so-called class of 1922" and those following it, whose mem- bers within seven years have not been promoted beyond the rank of third secretary, with a salary of S4,0o0 annually.
 Morgan Case Cited
 A recent resignation which stir red considerable speculation in state department circles. was that of Stoklcy Morgan of Arkansas, formerly chief of the important Latin American division of the de- partment. Morgan resigned to enter the banking business.
 Others were those of Thomas l.. Daniels of St. Paul, formerly frs, secretary at Rome. to enter the vegetable oil business; John r. Mar tin of Florida, formerly charge d alfaires at La Paz. Bolivia, who resigned 10 enter the service of Well-known oil company, and My ron A. Hofer, of Cincinnati, assign ed 10 the department, who resigned to enter the banking business.

 Rochester, N. Y. Oct. q LP- Flying 17,00 feet above the middle of Oregon, Capt. A. w. Stevens of the army air corps recently pointed a special camera toward the state of Washington. The result was a picture taken at | range of 227 miles, the farthest a lens has ever seen"
 Captain stevens could not see Washington. Haze and forest fire smoke hid even it's mountain peaks. But he "shot' as a big gun is aimed. by calculation. for point where he thought Mt Rainier, in Washing tons mid-seCtion, reared it's 14,400 foot bulk. That was his target.
 The photograph made, he flew to Eugene, Ore, an hour away, landed and developed the plates.
 The picture revealed q line of mountains which had been invis- ible to his eyes. At their far end, on the horizon. was Rainier itself dim, small, sitting low behind the shoulder of the earth's curvature.
 The low appearance is ascribed to the great curvature in the 227 miles, which, as q new record, breaks by 50 miles Stevens own previous long distance picture.
 This photograph shows, in the near foreground a scene of the type made familiar by aerial pho- tography: great wooded eXpanses of the Cascade mountains, peaks typographical features all distinct.
 Beyond this foreground, 50 miles and upward to the northward, be- gins widening, fan shaped pano- rama of mountain peaks. It resem- bles a small clay model made by a child's fingers.
 Up to 100 miles and more this model shows many details of contour, humps, peaks and fissure- like ridges. Beyond that distance the outstanding mountains are visible principally through their bulk, with occasional traces of vast shadows on their slopes.
