forces is this:
Inside the earth there are
pockets Of concentrated heat that
sometimes produce volcanic ertlr-

Effected BY Heat
This heat effects a wide area
Of the rocks buried in the earth's
interior. The result is that the
crystals of these rocks change
their forms. Sometimes the
change is even chemical, mean
ing rearrangement of atoms in
them.
Changed rock crystals become
longer in one direction and
shorter in another. In the direc-
ton that they are heightened, the
crystals exert amazing pressure

ROBINSON HITS
NAVAL TREATY
OVER RADIO
Indiana Senator Claims U. S.
Is Injured, While Britain
and Japan Gain Under Pact

Another Senate opponent OF the
London naval treaty. Senator
Robinson (R.0 of Indiana. used
the radio today to broadcast his
objections to the pact.
Declaring ratification would
"very gravely imperil the safety
and security of the United
States Robinson said even a
cursory study would convince the
most skeptical the pact should
not be ratified.
He spoke under the auspices
Of the National Grange, over a
national radio llookup.
Reviews History
He reviewed the history Of
previous treaties. At the 1927
Geneva conference. Robinson re-
called. American delegates came
home rather than acariesce to
the demands Of Great Britain
that this country arm its ships
with 6-inch guns. He said:
Three years later the Lon
don conference took place and
the American delegation de-
liberateIy acquiesced in the
British demands, even though
it meant definite abandonment
Of cur historic policy"
He limited his attack princi-
pally to the cruiser provisions OF
the treaty, which would allow
only 18 10000 ton
cruisers armed with eight inch
guns. The Navy's general board
had estimated 81 such craft as
the 'irreducible minimum"
Just Suits Britain
Robinson explained the six-inch
cruiser was the desirable type for
Great Britain, inasmuch as she
has q worldwide, closely knit sys-
tenn of naval bases. He added:
with us, however, 1t Is quite
different. While our ocean
borne commerce is as large as
that of Great Britain. we have
practically no naval bases

are unfOrtified in accordance
with the terms Of the Wash

Because Of this fact we re-
quire cruisers of the largest pos
SibIe tonnage, carrying the
heaviest armament possible and
with the widest cruising range"
Robinson deplored what he
termed the abandonment of the
$50 ratio Of naval ornaments
between Great Britain, America
and Japan. He said that under
the present treaty Japan had been
granted a 5-3R ratio of cruisers
with this country, and SIS ratio
