PHYSICAL SOCIETY
GIVEN NEW THEORY
Scientist Presents ExpIana-
ton of Nicholson Morley
Miller Experiments.

Mysteries of great and little universies
were expounded at the annual meeting
of the American Physical Society, which
opened at the Bureau Of Standards
today.
A new explanation Of the fantastic
results of the celebrated Nicholson
Morley-Miller experiments was offered
by N. Galli-Shohat of Mount Holyoke
College.
More than Is years ago Prof Albert
A. Nicholson of the University of Chi
cago first performed the experiment of
trying to prove the movement OF the
earth through space by light measure
ments which has kept physicists argu-
ing ever since. BY observations of the
heavens 1t was obvious that the earth
moved around the sun, presumably
through the hypothetical ether. Light
also moved through the ether. Hence
it was taken for granted that If two
beams of light were sent out simulta-
neously, one in the direction of the for
ward movement of the earth and the
other at right angles to it, and reflected
back by mirrors to their starting point,
the second would return trifie sooner
than the first The mirrors would be
moving with the earth. The light would
be moving independent of the earth.
Result Astonishing.
The astonishing result was that with
the finest conceivable methods of de-
lection there was no difference at all
in the time of the return journey.
Light beams, moving at the same speed,
seemed to cover different distances at
the same time. Upon this result was
predicated the EinStein theory, which
upset all previously held conceptions OF
the structure of the universe.
Then Prof. Dayton G. Miller of the
Case School of Applied Sciences, at
Cleveland, repeated the experiment with
still finer methods of detection and
claimed to find an actual difference In
the return time of the two light beams,
although less than would be predicted
by the classical theory.
Another element which might have
affected the return time was the change
in the positions of the mirrors relative
to fixed space by the rotation OF the
earth on its axis at rate OF about 80
kilometers q second. This possibility
was examined by mathematician, who
found the difference so small that 1t
could not possibly be detected.
Movement Of Solar System.
But, Galli-Shohat told the physicists
today, the whole solar system is sup
posed to be moving through space at
an estimated speed 10 times that of the
rotation of the earth, and this would
cause an effect about the same as that
obtained by Miller. Thus the original
finding of Nicholson, that the forward
movement of the earth cannot be de-
tected, would be upheld.
A new instrument, the fiarimeter, for
measuring shortnesS OF breath, was de-
scribed by DR.. r. v. Wells of the Pru-
dental Insurance Co. This test is i'm
portant in detecting heart disease. The

with individually. He suggested Fed
eral aid for establishing chair for
crime detection and police training in
State universities and then the grad
yates from these schools could go to
various communities and set up schools
for training the local. police forces.
Answering general criticism of the
police investigation in crime conditions
Inspector Shelby pointed out that en-
forcement of the law is intrusted to
many agencies, of which a municipal
police force is but one arm. He pointed
to the crowded court docketS and the
overcrowded prisons as attesting to po-
lice activities. To stop the crime wave
court action should be made quick for
the deterrent effect.
If school should be established, as
Mr.. Romjue proposes, Inspector Shelby
said that the course should last fol
many months and even years and that
crime detection should be made ca
reer and not job, and assurance must
be given to students that there Is a
career before them. Police forces and
officials should be absolutely divorced
from politics. he said.
Mrs. Norton asked him if better Sala-
rieS would not attract more efficient
men to the police force, and he agreed
with her that the question of low sala-
rieS is one of the underlying evils of
the police system.
Inspector Shelby pointed out that the
Nation, State and municipal govern
ment have so broadened police work
that the policemen become instruments
of oppression and are so looked upon
by the citizens.
Quotes Petty Regulations"
He quoted many petty absurdities"
such as absurd parking regulations,
which have made policemen objects of
attack generally, and said that under
such situation 1t is remarkable that
the results obtained are so good. He
said what police force most needs to-
day is fewer petty laws and regulations
to be enforced and pointed out that a
few years ago the duty of the police
was to prevent crime. to arrest crimi-
mails and to suppress riots, but now they
have all sorts of duties which worry
and annoy citizens.
In conclusion, Inspector Shelby sug-
gested to Representative Romjue that
way might be found for the Govern
ment to provide fund for some agency
distinct from police, and he suggested q
university, to make careful study 81
the situation and report to Congress or
what is needed to build up a more ef-
ficient crime detecting and law enforc-
ing system.
He thought that this might lead tc
setting up such a school in the National
Capital and letting the District of Co
lumbia police be the first to receive
training there and then the police de-
partments of other cities could SEND
men from their forces to this schoo
for fundamental training, who later
would return to their communities anc
there set up local schools.

A group of prominent members of the
Women's Organization for National
Prohibition Reform is expected to ap-
pear in opposition to the Howell local
prohibition bill when the Senate Dis
trict committee considers the measure
again at o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
The Howell bill contains the new search
warrant provision, under which war
rants could be issued for dwellings on
information Of the presence of a still,
or knowledge that liquor had been taken
to or from the premises. Under the
national prohibition law. evidence of
sale Is required to obtain warrant
for dwelling.
Mrs. Frederick II. Brooke said that
representatives of the District branch Of
the Women's Organization for National
Prohibition Reform would attend the
meeting tomorrow. The organization
Is holding national convention in
Cleveland, Ohio. this week, and some

ASSAULT CHARGES
CONFRONT MAN
Prisoner Is Held for Arraign-
ment After Capture by,
G. w. U. Student.

A charge carrying the death penalty
has been placed against Dellie Clark
35, colored, of the 1900 block of @ street
following his identification yesterday as
the attacker of two young women.
Clark is held without bond at the
tenth precinct station pending arraign-
ment in Police Court tomorrow on two
assault counts. 1t is alleged that he
attacked one of the girls early Tuesday
morning and the other early yesterday.
He was captured by William Brainin
Of Capitol Heights, Md, 19-year-old
George Washington University student
in front of the residence of one of the
girls when her screams attracted his at
tention as he was passing. He grappled
with Clark and held him until police
arrived and took him into custody.
One of the girls identified Clark as
her aSsailant by scratches on his face
mouth and neck, which she said she
inflicted in beating him off when he
seized her as she was making her way
home from her place of employment.

preceded Gov. Pollard in the guberna-
torial mansion at Richmond, had COM
pleted negotiations by which he becomes
owner of 1890 acres of apple orchards,
yielding, at the lowest estimate, 100000
barrels Of fruit annually and thereby
the largest individual apple grower In
the world.
Show at Airport.
Following the coronation this after
noon there was an air show at Win
chester Airport.
Band concerts were scheduled at the
court house, the George Washington
Hotel and the Handley Library.
Tonight's big event will be the torch

Winchester and visiting companies from
Maryland surrounding sections of Vir-
ginia, Pennsylvania and West Virginia,
beginning at o'clock. ..-..
All of the princesses of Queen Suzanne
Pollard's court will be guests at a re-
ception given by Miss Pollard at the
Headquarters of the queen, the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. w. A. Baker. Follow
ing the reception the queen and her
court will attend the annual apple BIOS
som ball in the gold room of the George
Washington Hotel.
Another ball is scheduled for the
same time at the Hotel Drusilla, Jordan
Spring, Va, about miles northeast of
Winchester.
Program Tomorrow.
At 10 o'clock tomorrow morning a

new instrument measures both short
ness of breath and vital capacity, or the
volume of maximum breath expiration
These are often confused, DR.. Wells
said, and he pointed out that after ex-
erciSe, when the breath Is coming In
short gulps, the flarimeter measurement
shows no decrease in vital capacity
while the special measuring device for
shortneSS of breath shows reduction
to as much as one-third normal rate.
Persons with normal heart muscles,
he said, should be able to make a
forced expiration of the breath for so
seconds before the irresistible impulse
to breathe stops the expiration. The
new instrument, he pointed out, can
be carried about by physicians in max
ing standard tests.
The dangers to high smokestacks
from strong winds were pointed out
by H. L. Dryden and G. M. Hill of
the Bureau of Standards as the result
of precise measurements in the wind
tunnel at that institution where arti-
fetal gales are created. They estimated
that stacks are safe from wind speeds
up to 100 miles an hour If the height
is not more than 10 times the diameter
and the walls are constructed to resist
a pressure of 20 pounds square foot.
