Highly Sensitive

TIME combination of the l00-inch
l. telescope with a sensitive ther-
mocouple is one of unusual pene-
tration and delicacy. Were it pos
sible to place a candle 100 miles
out in space, its temperature could
be taken with the combination.
The thermocouple consists of two
tiny bits of wire fused together. One
is of bismuth. The other is an alloy
containing tin. The wires are con-
tanned within a glass bulb from
which the air has been extracted.
Now it was shown many years ago
that when the juncture Of two wires
Of different metals is heated, an
electric current can be measured
and the intensity of the heat in
volyed calculated from the amount
of current generated.
The Mt. Wilson astronomers re-
move the eyepiece from the great
100-inch telescope and replace it
with the thermocouple. The image
of the star then falls upon the
juncture of the two wires.
The thermocouple is connected to
an exceedingly delicate measuring
instrument which measures the
amount of current generated by the
heating effect which the star exer-
cises upon the thermocouple.
The amount of heat received from
the star then can be calculated
from the current. From this, in
turn, the actual temperature OF the
star can be calculated.

A ToSt Strike

year ago the American Federation Of Labor be-
gan an intensive effort to unionize the textile mills of
the south. Recently some progress was reported,
despite adverse business conditions which make
ganization difficult.
Now the United Textile Workers are engaged in
their first big test of strength with the employers
More than 1000 workers are on strike at Danville,
Va, charging material reductions in already low
wages, and use of the "stretch-out" system, about
which so much was heard in other southern textile
disputes in the last year.
Progress of the strike will be watched with much
interest. Company unions broke down, which gave
the A. F. of L. union opportunity to bring the mill
workers into its ranks The outcome of the struggle
may indicate whether the federation will be able to
carry out its ambitious program to better wages and
working conditions throughout the south.
However, it may show whether a well-establshed
labor body like the textile workers conduct a
strike below the line without interference
of the authorities in behalf of the mill owners, such
occurred in Gastonia, Ezabethtown and elsewher.
Then the cry of Communism" was raised and
hatred kindled against so-called alien organizers.
Such accusation cannot be made in this instance be-
the textile union is not radical and southern
unions in other crafts cooperating in an effort
TO help the workers in the mills.

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE

The best authorities are con-
vinced that one should not lose
more than two pounds week, the
average safe loss being from three
to six pounds month, and by the
safe method one who is greatly
overweight can take off from twenty
to twenty-five pounds over a period
of four or five months, and then
maintain this weight for three or
four months before any further re-
duction is attempted.
Intensive reduction of weight
should be undertaken only when
the person is able to remain in bed
constantly during the period of in
tenSlve reduction. Certainly Moth
ing intensive should be attempted
without having the constant at
tention of a physician who will
watch for the presence of any
dangerous reactions.
He will examine the excretionS
for the presence of sugar or al
bumen; he will study regularly the
ability of the heart to carry on it's
work and in this way make the
process safe.
1t now generally is known that
the taking of thyroid extract speeds
up the chemical interchange that
goes on in the body. However, the
taking of thyroid extract is not
without danger. Some of the
patented products sold in drug
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1930-10-01
Will Power Needed to Cure Obesity

stores for the reduction of weight
contain liberal quantities of thyroid
and serious results have been re-
ported from the taking Of such
preparations.
Never should thyroid extract be
taken without careful supervision by
some one trained in observing the
changes that go on in the human
body.
AS can be seen from these con-
siderations, the problems of weight
are not fully understood. Because
of the nation wide attempt at re-
duction, such as occurred in recent
years, more attention has been given
to problems of weight during the
last five years than at any previous
period in medical science.
Thus, much information has been
acquired and a beginning has been
made In establishing the ideal
weight for health. Several methods
are available for securing and main
tanning that weight. Perhaps the
problem never will be solved until
human beings have learned the i'm
portance of heredity and eugenjcs
in the building of sound tissues. 1t
has been possible in the breeding
of animals to develop horses of both
the racing and draft horse type.
With the same amount of consider
alton, similar results could be ac-
complished for the human being.

Tariff Propaganda

Republican campaign managers are getting very
indignant over attacks on the billion dollar Grundy
tariff law 1t is not surprising that they are so sensi
tive. Didn't they promise the country that the tariff
boost would restore national prosperity within thirty
days? Naturally, they find it pretty hard to defend
law which has produced such disastrous results in pro-
longing the business depression.
Apparently they have decided that the only defense
is attack. Hence the Republican cry that all criticism
of the tariff law should be dismissed as partisan
Democratic propaganda
There is no doubt that there is plenty of Demo
cratic propaganda on the subject. And there is no
doubt that is effective politically That is the Re-
publicans' fault They created the issue by putting
over the gold brick the public. Since they them
selves created the ISSUE the Republicans hardly can
blame the Democrats for taking full political adj
vantage of the fatal Republican bunder
In all these campaign arguments between Demo-
Gratis and Republicans however there is danger that
the public will get the idea that this chiefly party
fight. 1t is not The issue far tranScends partisan
pickering.
The one thousand and more leading economists of
the country who warned the President and congress
of the dire results which since have been produced by
the law not out to knife the administration nor
to spread Democratic propaganda
They were speaking as impartial experts and scien-
of Republican business who oppose the tariff law
driven not by partisan motives but by hard times

report the results of the tariff started by the

Heat From Star
TINE difficulty Of taking a star

TINE difficulty of taking a stars
L temperature can be realized
from the slight amount of heat re-
ceived from a star.
The Mt. Wilson astronomers say
that the amount of heat radiated
upon the entire surface Of the
United States by star just visible
to the unaided eye is approximately
the same amount which the sun
radiates upon one square yard OF
surface.
The thermocouple receives about
one-half of -millionth Of de-
gree, Fahrenheit, of heat from such
star. The current generated by that
amount of heat is about one
twentieth of one-billionth OF an
ampere.
However, the measuring instru-
ment or galvanometer employed by
the Mt. Wilson astronomers Is deli
cate enough to measure that small
amount of current.
The thirteenth magnitude stars
which Nicholson and Petit have
been studying send far less heat to
the earth than the sort of star just
mentioned. And the current gen.
Grated In the thermocouple is, OF
course, far smaller as result.
To increase accuracy of their
work, the two astronomers use a gal
vanometer in which the current
strengths are recorded photo
graphically, thus eliminating errors
which might creep in from visual
observations.
They have been using the thermo-
couple also to take the temperatures
of the moon and of the various
planets.

A man may be large and still not
have a double chin, pendulous abb
domen, enormous buttockS and hips.
Collections Of fat in these parts of
the body may be taken as definite
evidence Of obesity.
The attempt to control overweight
is obviously dependent on the abil-
ity of the physician to convince the
patient that he ought to eat less,
and on the ability of the patient to
eat less when he knows it. A
prominent German investigator has
said that education of the will is
the first step in the treatment Of
obesity.
Far too often it is not necessary
for the person who is reducing to
go hungry. If he will eat bulky,
coarse foods he will have a sense
of fullness which will overcome the
sensation of hunger. A small amount
of something sweet taken at the
end of meal increases his sense
of satisfaction of the appetite.
Eating slowly and chewing the
food for long time help to limit
the amount of food. Sometimes the
feeling of emptiness can be relieved
by wearing a tight belt around the
abdomen.

the coarsest of food, wear castoff clothing.
They live in fine homes, eat the best of
food, drive to their daily task of scheming
and conniving in limousines, and fatten on
the taxpayers Of the county.
What do they care if scores of broken
men who have gone over the hill' live and
die in misery? Apparently nothing at all.
Woefully inadequate accommodations
have been provided for years for men at the
Marion county infrmary. Today conditions
have reached the acute emergency stage. TO
morrow they will be past description with
winter coming on and the economic depres-
sion forcing scores more to seek this mock
cry even on the poorest form of charity.
A public statement was made Tuesday,
after a Times survey had disclosed the pit
liable situation at the infrmary, that the
county council would be called on to issue
bonds for new and decent living quarters.
Today comes the welshing. County
Auditor Harry Dunn says that matters are
all gummed UP" and the meeting to meet the
emergency may not be called. John Shearer,
head of the county commission, is silent on
relief. Other officials are lodging the issue.
They can not dodge the issue much
longer The state fire marshal's investigation
Tuesday revealed that the infrmary is a fire
trap of the worst sort. 1t is foregone con-
cusion that condemnation orders will be is
sued.
This condemnation will eliminate living
quarters-if they can be honored with this
name-for 200 men, and the question of
housing them will be put squarely up to
county officials Even the present crop of
county officials hardly can put 200 men out
in the street to freeze to death.

If they do not, the duty deyolves upon the
voters of the county to wipe every one Of

that they never can contemplate, even from

which they have fattened and thrived while
scores of other men lived and died in dire
misery.

we have abandoned all thought of

Making of Martyrs

THIS is good system for devel-
l. oping martyrs, but a poor one
for making converts. Indeed, If the
prohibition people actually had faith
in the malleability Of mankind, we
would have today a vigorous tenn
perance campaign instead of bone
dry legislation.
In a sense, the drys of today have
displayed a contempt toward the
earlier temperance workers. At one
time there was a lively belief that
man might be good enough to leave
off alcohol of his own accord ii only
he we're prayed with enough and
persuaded to look at colored charts
showing the effects Of rum upon his
internal organs.
