Tarrytown, N. J., July 10 R - When this suburban community needs something and cant find it anywhere else. it generally calls on "Neighbor Johp.'
 Yesterday it was suction pump. A marsh along the Hud- son river wasn't draining. and mosquitoes were matching in the stagnant water to poster the neighborhood on summer nights.
 Somebody called the estate of John D. Rockefeller. Yes, MT. Rockefeller had suction pump. and Tarrytown was welcome to it. The pump was used and the marsh was drained.

connected with the wire. About 100 amperes
OF current are forced through this circuit under
the pressure of 10000 volts. AS this powerful
electric current charges the condenser and
backs up against the spark gap the current
jumps the gap and instantaneously the re-
Sistance disappears and the electricity surges
around the circuit. When it reaches the fine

expected to reveal what happens to the plati-

description of this experiment was given
by DR.. Thomas H Johnson assistant director
of the Bartol Foundation of Franklin Insti-
tute who is one of the thousand or more men
working on the secrets of the atom in all parts
Of the world
DR.. johnson has shared in recent discoveries
regarding the nature OF the atom. He has
shown that an atom in motion acts like q
wave in motion. To glimpse what he means
one should think in terms Of light. There are
two theories of light: First, that it is a disturb
ance in the ether" just as a wave is a dis
turbance in water; second, that light is cor
puscular. that corpuscules or particles emit

ted which strike the retina OF the eye and
produce the sensation Of light
DR. JOHNSON invented q method through
which he discovered that hydrogen in mo-
ton has a wave action similar to light in
motion.
IF hydrogen is q wave, is it logical to as
sumo that oxygen, carbon and all other matter
are waves, even cells of living matter that make
up our bodies?" he was asked
you can't consider the discovery in that
way" DR.. johnson replied. cit has no present
meaning for people or for practical use. It
simply means we have found q new way by
which to try to understand the atom and the
fundamental qualities of matter
"At the present time there is much confu-
sion in the minds of physicists. We have made
experiments which can only be explained on
the theory that light is wave, and other ex-
periments which can only be explained on the
theory that light is a corpuscle. Both appear
to be right and we haven't reconciIed them
yet"
In his recent speech, Eddington stated that
there Is enough energy in a drop Of water to
furnish 200 horsepower for q year; that per-
hapS some day great generating stations with
wharves and sdings would be unnecessary.
and instead OF pampering the appetites of our
engines with delicacies like coal or OIL we shall
induce them to work on a plain diet of SUBJ

degrees centigrade. Sirius the
brightest star in the sky, BLUSH
white twinkle, sends out a tempera-
ture of 1900 degrees; Vega rates $4,000 de-
greeS on the astronomers measuring instru-
mentS, and Capella $500 degrees.
But man himself has done better. In the
laboratories of science 100000 degrees cent?
. grade Is not unknown. One million degrees
OF heat seems almost beyond imagination, but
n has already been achieved by man.
Sir Arthur Eddington, the famous British
astronomer, mentioned this fact in a casual
reference during his speech before the World
Power Conference in Berlin a few weeks ago
while describing the vast energy which is
stored in the atom.
He estimated that IL we could stir I'D a
heat of 100000 or 100000 degrees the
atom might begin to give prolific yield of its
energy. He went on to make the astonishing
statement that 40 900 degrees is perhaps
not beyond attainment in our laboratories.
AT Cavendish Laboratory" he continued
~Dr. kapitza produces momentary magnetic
fields in which the concentration of energy
corresponds to about 100000 degrees cent?
grade. In this therInometic scale the tenn
perature at freezing pont of water is zero and
the boiling point of water 100 degrees; Fahren-
heit shows freezing at 81 degrees and water
boiling at 212 degrees

WHILE DR.. Kapitza is stocking a fire of
100000 degrees in England, DIR. j. w.
Beams of the department of physics Uni
versity of Virginia, is doing the same in his
laboratory.
The 100000 degrees fash out in an instant
or less, but still the heat is definite certain
palpable for DR.. Beams not only measures it.
but he is taking what viii be q motion picture
OF 100000 degrees OF heat, how it starts
what it looks like at its greatest instensity
and where or how it disappears.
To photograph 100000 degrees of heat
DR.. Beams is taking Seperate photographs Of
the flash 100000, 000th Of a second apart
The photographs must be taken one at
time, but DR.. Beams is operating with such
precision that he can take snapshots of the
heat explosion at the proper intervals and be
certain when he sets them up in sequence
that the series is perfect.
When heat is intense, it becomes light and
the light forms colors-everybody has heard
of red hot, white hot and blue hot-and the
color spectrum Of the heat fash tells just how
high temperature has been reached. DR..
Beams photographs the spectrum of the flash,
and he expects that a study Of the spectrum as
the flash wakes and wanes will tell the inside
story of 1,000,00 degrees of heat.

more on the average than the domestic
bond market and has been conspicu-
oIisly strong in some sections. With the
Young plan adopted and preparations
now going forward in behalf of the first
portion Of the reparations loan it would
not be surprising to see an advance
staged in those dollar issues whose
market must be the gauge of the new
loan. Already there are signs of this.
More will become apparent before
Spring. While South and Central
American issues have acted badly and
also those of German municipalities
and corporations and various Eastern
European obligations have sold at heavy
discounts from their initial prices. it
will be found that the older and higher
credits of Europe and South America
came through the market crisis in
about as satisfactory a way as any
group of securities listed on the Ameri-
can exchanges. Those who have held
them for several years could today
realize substantial profits on them.
During January the market for gov
eminent issues has been quiet and
somewhat lower. Corporations which
bought them to make the first use Of
funds they had in the call money
market have since sold. There has also
been liquidation by individuals who
after November were looking for the
highest factor of safety, but have since
been seeking higher yields than those
available on United States bonds or
notes.

CONSTRUCTION WORK
AT STEADY LEVELS
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, January 3I.-Activity in
heavy construction and engineering for
the Nation as whole continues to hold
at steady, levels, Engineering News Rec
ord reports today. The value Of con-
tracts placed in the past were set at
$49, 262 900, which compares with S49,-
223,000 in the preceding week and $50
100000 in the corresponding week last
year.
Comparison with the previous week
and with the like period a year ago"
the report states, reveals a fairly even
rate of activity in all classes of engi-
neering construction and a slight gain
in street and road construction.
Large awards for the week included
$3,500,000 bar mill, to be built in
Detroit by a steel company; construc-
ton of 81 coke ovens in Pueblo, Colo,
at a cost of 81 200, 900, and a 81, 900 900
garage in Chicago, Ill
Grouped according to classes, con-
tract lettings were valued at the follow
ing sums: Commercial buildings, 3d.
$4,000; industrial buildings, $3.50, 900;
streets and roads, $7,139, 900, and other

Since January l, heavy construction
and engineering awards announced
throughout the country amounted to
$3.50, 900, comparing with $396, $685.

bonds and in almost all cases the gains
OF preferred stocks from their November
levels have been maintained during FREE
quent recessions in both bonds and
common stocks. Apparently the in
vesting public either wants an out
and-out equity" or strictly mortgage
or debenture type Of security, and per-
sistently overlooks the income advan-
tages to be obtained in this intermediate
field.
Oversupply.
The chief deterrent to a general i'm
provement in bond prices is that of
oversupply, which in the end will be
regulated by demand. There are a
great many new issues pressing on the
market. Most of them that have so
far been brought out represent. new
capital. It is too early for much re-
funding. as very few per. cent or 512
per cent issues can be sold around par.
Later we shall probably come into q
period when some of the 6 per cent
bonds outstanding will be retired in
favor of lower coupon issues and opera
tons that were postponed in 1928 will
be resumed. This assumes that money
rates will continue easy under the in
fuence of a def1ation in stocks and alb
normally low demand for business re-
quirements.
One of the problems of the situa-
ton is the position of the banks of the
country, which in the past have alb
Sorbed high percentage of new offer
ings. While they will take issues that
promise an immediate premium, such
as the American Telephone & Tele-
graph bonds, they will hesitate to buy
others so long as their loans on Sc
curities are at the present high level.
These loans are being liquidated slowly.
They represent a commitment that
may keep the banks out of the bond
market for many months. The pur-
chasing power controlled by the invest
ment trusts and trading corporations
is still high in spite of the reduction in
their call and time loans since Oc-
tober, but they are quite generally COM
mttted to common stock investment
program. If they enter the. bond mar
ket at ali 1t will be as they find high
yields and prospects for appreciation.
These elements are more likely to occur
in foreign than in domestic issues.

Arsenal, where those charged with con-
spring to assassinate President Lincoln,
along with the dead murderer, Booth,
and to murder other Government
omcials Is in progress, may be interest,"
ing at this time, in view of the wide
public desire to read every scrap Of
news that Is printed about the historic
case.
The prisoners were brought promptly
into the court room at the usual hour
Of 10 O'Clock this morning. The weather
was not quite 50 warm as 1t had been
during the last few days, and at the
prisoners request the window nearest
them was closed.
DR.. Mudd, one of the prisoners, APP
peared again In shirt sleeves with
white handkerchief bound closely about
his neck. His full forehead gives him
an intellectual look, but he keeps his
lips closely compressed and his eyes are
small.
Spectators generally pick out Atzerott
as the most "villainous looking"
prisoner. They say his face is ter
rible witness against him" He has a
low forehead, pinched features, q
mean" chin, sallow complexion, green
ish blue eyes, twisted mustache and
Q head sunk between his shoulders,
while his crouching figure adds to the
generally unfavorably impression.
Payne Is not readily distinguished,
except by his height He has q
desperate. daredevil look, but not that
of mean villain" His smoothly
shaver face and fiorid complexion and
his large, clear eyes give him q more

hand and playing with his rnustache.
No attempt is to be made here to tell
Of the testimony, to which all Of the

It might be added that DR.. Mudd
pays considerable attention to his per-
sonal appearance, especially to the
cleanliness of his body. Like Mrs. Sur
raft, he spends much time reading
religious books.
Herold's mood is mercurial. Some
times he Is buoyant and often he seems
deeply depressed.
