TUBE MEASURES
STARS HEAT

SCHENECTADY. Sept. "a. - A
new type of vacuum tube so sem
sitive that astronomers can use
it in conjunction with photo
electric cells to determine the
amount of heat radiated by stars
countless miles distant has been
developed by the General Elec.
trio Company, it was announced
here by Ellis L. Manning, Of the
company's research laboratory, In
a talk over radio station WGY.
The sensitiveness Of the tube
renders it capable of measuring
q hundredth of a millionth Of a
blllionth Of an aI11pere.
In the measurement Of small
currents the new tube will to a
great extent replace electrometers
which are now used. The tube
has the advantages Of greater
sensitivity and much greater ease
Of mounting. One Of the major
applications will be in the labora-
tory measurement Of currents In
ionization chambers which are
used to indicate the intensities of
Xgay and ultraviolet light beams.

Petroleum HOnOrS

PARIS, Sept. "a G.N.S9
Americans are not entitled to the
honors of having been the first
to exploit petroleum in the mod
er1l manner, according to a
writer in "Candide."
He says Rumania first ex.
tfacted 2.O00 tons Of petrol in
1857, not by digging wells, but by
following out great trenches,
from which the. precious mineral
oil was taken by means OF great
buckets.
The Frenchn1an adds that 1t
was not until 1859, two years
later, that United States engi.
neers dug several oil wells Of SO
meters depth.
