GREAT VOLUME PRODUCTION AND EXCELLENT OUT
 LOOK FOR 1880

DETROIT, Dec, 3, P)-Wage increases will add approximately s2O,O00OO0 annually to the pay roll of the Ford Motor Co.,, 1t was announced by Edsel Ford, president of the company.
 The minimum wage scale of $6 per day has been increased to ST and increases on a graduation basis of 5 cents an hour will be given to employees already re- ceiving between ST and $10 per day.
 The increase will be effective December l and is confined to employees within the United States. The formal announcement by Edsel Ford said;
 We are able to make this wage increase partly because of the an ticipated economics proposed the great volume of production which we had over a period ot months. and partly because oi our excellent outlook for next year Wage increases cannot be collected from the public nor talk en out of the quality of our pro- duct but have to be made up by better management. We will work that way to justify the increase"

consider the move -ponsored by the

ATOMIC BODY
IS EXPLORED
Scientist and Several AS
sistants Make Deep
Study
BY OSCAR LEIDING

WASHINGTON, July 19.-(P)-
An atom is a structure so small
that If a drop of water were magni-
fled to the size of the earth its
atoms would be comparative to toy
balloons.
The problems of disintegration
are being explored by DR.. L. F. Cur
elsS and a number of assistants
lhey hope to study results of dis
indignation when particles Of diff
ferenN velocitieS are shot through
different case. to get more accu-
rate Information of the forces
which exist in the nuclei, and to
investigate more closely the coils
ions of the infinitesimal bodies.
The basis Of the study is the pho
tographing of the tracks made by
alpha particles in a device known
as a Wilson cloud chamber. The
particles, travelling at a velocity of
63l2.7 miles a second, leave be-
hind them paths of fog in moving
through an atmosphere Supersatu-
rated with water vapor.
When there is a head-on coils
ion, or direct hit, and the energy IS
great enough, fra, ~1entS are torn
from the nucleus of the atom. The
path9Scf the bits are visible as lines
Of fog and recorded on films from
two angles by cameras.
Scientists haze not discovered
the trigger action necessary to re-
lease the energy hitch would be
liberated by one atorl charging
into another. The energy is SO
great that the forces lying dor
mant in an ordinary yard-stick, II
suddenly released, would burst the
earth into millions Of pieces.
In the fa-ouS experiments OF
Ernest Rutherford, he was only
able to detect that, u a collision
of particles, hydrogen atoms had
been knocked out" of aluminium
or nitrogen. 1T the bureau OF
standards improved - ratuS has
been developed through study for
more than one and c1e-half years.
Now, with the tracks visible as
fine lines of for, not OF ! can the
collisions be observed but sclen-
lists tan count the number OF frag-
ments that emerge, the direction
they take and an exact deduction
can be made C what has nap
pened. They can determine the
mass of all fragments broken OH
and thus determine what new eIe-
mentS are formed.

MEXICO CITY, July 19.-P)-
Population of the vast stretches Of
northern NJ. leo bounding TN e
United States with Mexicans, span

It is advisable t. populate the e r

is to mix with and Gre tie unison
among the different classes n
IndisSA tribes now living there and
to NIX among themselves, thus
eventually creating n people rath-
er than a series of distinct groups.
To substantiate that heory, the
commission used the situation IN
certain parts CT Europe IS an ex-
ample setting forth in particular
The case of the old Austro-Hun-
parian empire, where people OF va
rious origin settled and aimed
their individ lily, leading to the
necessity after the war of splitting
the empire int several countries.
The first thing that sb ould be
done. according to the commissions
ideas, is for the government to OF
Ger lam in the tie ritory mentioned
under conditions within the immi-
grants abilit. to meet, provided the
necessary help in the ,cy OF 1rri-
cation, roads, etc, and tfcn give
Mexicans now living in the United
f5ates first right to the sell.
