querel then discovered that this blackening was
not due to the fiuorescence of the uranium salt,

therefore. be due to some rays coming from the
uranium itself said he
Nine. Curie's profound knowledge of chem
tstry was known to Prof. Becquerel, and he
asked her to take up the question and find out
why the uranium gave of a kind of light which
would pass through black paper It was shortly
found that the uranium had also the capacity
TO discharge electricity from bodies near it. 1t
happened that Nine. Curie's husband had been
interested in devising a very sensitive instru-
ment for detecting such minute electrical cur
rents as pass through air influenced by uranium,
so he Joined with his wife In testing the radio
activity of a large number of substances
Certain minerals were found to be highly
radioactive, but only those containing uranium
or thorium Mime. Curie then suggested the
hypothesis that there must be in these ores
some substance which was much more radio
active than either uranium or thorium itself.
This meant of course. separating chemically
these new substances from uranium ores. The
separation was based entirely on the tested ra-

more thoroughly and rapidly made than in
this laboratory, only few steps from the place
where Nine. Curie herself and her daughter,
Irene, labor to complete the work which she
began in 1898 with the discovery of radium.
FEW people know the details of the dramatic
discovery which Nine. Curie and her hus-
band made. Like so many other discoveries
in science it was not wholly independent for
it was preceded by the discovery by Roentgen
of the x-rays in 1895. He showed that these
rays coming from a tube through which an
electric current was running. could pass through
opaque substances and blacken a Photographic
plate. The glass of the tube was brilliant
green when the current was on resembling the
fiuorescence which is seen when ordinary sum
light strikes uranium glass

rays similar to x-rays might be emitted from

CHICAGO FOOD
WORKERS HOLD
T.U.E.L.. MEETING
To Have Delegates at
Convention

CHICAGO, Aug. 26.-The call for
the election of delegates to the
Trade Union Unity convention was
heard and answered by the Chicago
Progressive Food Workers at the
recent conference held at Fraternity
Hall, 19 W, Adams St.
All branches of the industry were
represented and enthusiasm ran
high for the organization of new
Industrial Union of Food Workers.
It was decided to send delegates
to the Cleveland convention.
The convention of the Hotel and
Restaurant Employees International
Union and Bartenders Alliance of
America GA. F. of L. which was in
session in Kansas City at the time
of the conference, more openly than
ever before laid a program of SELL
out betrayal and class collaboration.
Several explosions from the
walters local have already taken
place, and more are expected to fol-
low from other locals. AS far as
the organization of the workers are
concerned, explosions from the union
means little as only about 1900 are
organized into six different craft
locals out of the $4,000 food work
ers in Chicago.

In the meanwhile unions through
out the country, rallied by the Gas
tonia Joint Defense and Relief Cam
paign Committee, are pledging them
selves to aid to the utmost the cam
paign for funds to meet the heavy
legal expenses throughout the trial.
The Needle Trades Workers In
dustrial Union has pledged fullest
aid, assessing every member so
cents for the drive. Shop collec-
tions, street and house to house col
lections are taking place in every
Industrial section of the country.
Tag days that began the drive last
Saturday and Sunday will be re-
peated the last four days of the
campaign, Aug. 80 and 81 and Sept.
l and 2, in all sections of the land.
The Labor Day weekend is expected
to bring in many thousands of dol
lars.
"The workers of America must
rally with funds, or else our defense
may collapse in the midst of the
trial." the campaign committee
warned.

Cause of 6 Deaths
i'm Toronto Hospital

TORONTO, Aug. 26.-Alleged
faulty ether was examined today by
government chemists to ascertain
whether it was the cause of six
deaths of patients undergoing opera
tons.
The investigation was begun after
the death of Mary Cummins, Is, who
died three minutes after she had
been placed on the operating table
of hospital here.
Miss Cummins, in apparent good
spirits, was singing a popular air
when ether was applied for her
operation, she succumbed before the
operation was begun.
