Uncertainty

TIME first sharp attack upon the
Il physicists is made By Professor
Albert P. Weiss, psychologist of Ohio
State university.
He writes an article in the cur
rent issue of the Scientific Monthly,
official publication of the American
Association for the Advancement OF
Science. criticising the views which
Professor P. w. Bridgman, physicist
of Harvard university, recently eX-
pressed in an article in Harper's
Magazine.
Professor Bridgman drew certain
philosophical conclusions from the
famous Heisenberg principle Of un-
certainty"
This principle represents an ex-
tension of Einstein's dictum that all
measurements are relative to the OBJ
server to a statement that nothing
exists unless it can be measured by
an observer.
Now the present state Of affairs
in physics is such that an expert
menter can measure the velocity of
an electron or he can measure the
position of an electron, but he must
sacrifice one to measure the other.
He can not measure both.
Consequently, since it is impoSSi-
BILE to measure both position and
velocity, it is impossible to predict
what an electron will do next. This
is the principle of uncertainty"
Professor Bridgman writes: IA
body has position only in so far as
it's position can be measured; if its
position can not in principle be
measured, the concept of position
applied to the body is meaningless,
or in other words, a position of the
body does not exist.
Hence if both the position and
the velocity of the electron can not
in principle be measured, the cleo
iron can not have both position and
velocity; position and velocity as
expressions of properties which an
electron can simultaneously have
are meaningless"

Lack Of What?

I'd EPORTERS had no difficulty
N in locating Mr.. Terranova
within twenty-four hours after he
had been accused of this fake hold
up by Inspector Donovan, but for
some inscrutable reason the police
department could not discover that
it wanted him, much less where he
lived, until he had departed for
Atlantic City.
The speed with which a street
sweeper can be apprehended stands
out in amazing contrast to the
clumsiness with which the New
York police department moves
when gamblers, big gangsters or
artichoke kings are involved.
Ordinary folks are puzzled to
know whether this contrast is due
to lack Of skill, or will.
At that, the New York police de-
partment is typical, rather than
exceptional.
On every hand, American law ap-
pears far more capable of catching
and Furnishing little criminals than
big ones.
No trouble at all with the pint
peddler, or petty thief, but lots of
it with the wholesale bootlegger and
the man who steals millions.
This is in strange contradiction
to our general theory of things.
We like tall buildings because
they can be seen, and big banks
because they stand for greater Sc
curity.
When it comes to crime, however,
we appear to be blinded by size.

NEW MEXICO ADMITTED

-Jdnuary o.
ON Jan. 6, 1912, New Mexico was
" admitted to the Union. AL
though the state legislature was
strongly Republican, the first
Governor to be elected was a
Democrat, William C. Mcdonald.
He was elected by a coalition of
Democratic and Progressive Repub-
ncan voters.
The legislature on March II, 1912,
elected Albert 3. Fall and Thomas
B. Catron, United States senator's
Senator Fall drew the short term
Zone Year,, but at the end of that
time he was elected to succeed him
self.
Two years later three constitution
al amendments were carried-one
reducing the terms of county and
state officials from four to two
years, another permitting such
officials to succeed themselves, and
the third eliminating the state
board of equalization and repeal
ing the clause on taxation.

The Sandwich

HOWEVER, to stick to the sub
L L iect, three major ambitions
have animated my life. I have al
ways wanted to receive the honor
ary degree of doctor of letters, see
a picture of myself and Peggy Joyce
in a Palm Beach wheel chair
printed in a rotogravure section and
have a sandwich named after me.
The doctorate and the wheel chair
will have to wait, but I've got my
sandwich.
"Just what is this Haywood Broun
special on your menu?" asked the
waiter.
"It's a triple-decker, sir" he ex-
planned. 1.-The top layer is chicken
fat and under that comes a slice OF
salami and then the peanut but
ter. Of course, it's got lettuce and
tomatoes with it besides the Ber-
muda onion"
But with the weighing machines
all going crazy as they have, I
wouldn't dare to touch a Haywood
Broun special unless they left out
the chicken fat, and the Salami and
the peanut butter and most of the
bread. That, of course, would de-
stroy its individuality.
And so the sandwich is doomed
to languish. 1t takes a good deal
of personal initiative to put over a
thing like that.
Even the now-famouS ham sand
wich probably needed press agentry
and propaganda in the beginning.
Lacking leadership, I'll bet there are
evenings when Dave doesn't sell a
cool fifty of the Haywood Broun
special. But if he'll only be patient
with me through few months of
oranges and clam juice, I'll promise
to eat dozen of the specials at a
single sitting.

NNE of the most serious things
~ that can happen to a human
being is to get an embolus in his
blood stream.
An embolus is some foreign ma
terial, usually solid, that gets loose
in the circulation and travels
around until it comes to a place
where the blood vessel is so narrow
that it can travel no farther.
Then the embolus stops and the
blood is unable to get beyond it to
feed the tissues which ordinarily
are supplied with blood by the blood
vessel concerned.
When the tissue fails to receive
blood it dies or becomes so weak
ened that secondary infection sets
in promptly. The result Is gan
creme or abscess, in many instances
sufficiently severe to cause death.
Some of the parts of the body are
fortunately supplied with blood not
only by one blood vessel, but by
several.

Misses Biz HaulS

Having proved its ability to catch
a poor street cleaner, with no more
than silver of wood to go by, one
wonders why the New York police
department couldn't solve the Roth
stein case.
Or coming down to more recent
events, why couldn't the New York
police department find Giro Terra
nova, who was accused of staging
a fake holdup to get possession of
a contract he had signed with a
Chicago gunman for the killing of
FRANKIE Yale and Frank NARROW?

"DSYCHO-PHYSICS" may be the
L next branch of science to make
its sudden entry upon the horizon
of an already puzzled and startled
world. At least, that is a reasonable
conclusion from the present trend
of the science of physics.
First, the development of the
atomic theory brought about
union of physics and chemistry into
physical chemistry. Next, astrono-
mers turned to atomic theory 1or
explanations cs what was happening
in the stars. AS result, astro-
physics came into existence.
And now. it looks as though the
next scientific union would be that

"psycho-physics."

 ABANDONED AIRPLANE
Souvenir Hunters in Mid dletown Begin to Strip
 Craft of Devices

Middletown, Oct. 22 LP-Police Of this city have an abandoned air plane on their hands and are anxious to get rid of it before souvenir hunters carry it away piecemeal,
 The plane landed on property ol the Connecticut State hospital Sun day. Attracted by screams, J. Fred erick Collins, superintendent of the town farm, hurried to the place and found a woman strapped in it. A young man, apparently the pilot was near the ship.
 Collins asked what it was all abou: and the woman replied: T guess if you were strapped in and afraid Of the plane taking fire you would yell. The woman and her companion ther left the scene without revealing thei. names, after covering the engine ot the plane with blanket.
 A search of the plane today dis, closed a license card issued by tho department of aeronautics to $. license car dissued by Massachusetts officials in 1926 bore the name of Emma Guillemette of 25 Dewey St, Methuen, Mass.

TO Bodies Recovered, Many of Them Unrccognizablc - Ghastly Sights Greet Rescue Crews Penc- trating Depths of Works.

Alsdorf, Rhenish Prussia, Oct. 22 (Et-This mining town of 10000 in- habitants was plunged into new grief today when it became appar- cnt that there was no hope for 61 miners still under ground in the Anna II coal mine.
 With a certain death total of 231 terdays mysterious explosion already recovered, there seemed every like lihood this afternoon that further increases in the death list must be made.
 go Still in Hospital
 Ninety-nine persons remained in hospitals. many of them in a critical condition.
 It was thought by those above ground that many men, some of them probably suffering hurts, were slowly groping their way through the subterranean darkness toward exits two miles distant from the point where the blast occurred.
 When rescue crews, wearing gas masks, penetrated 1,500 feet below the surface a ghastly sight met their eyes. All about them the victims lay, apparently asphyxiated. From this pit not one person had emerged alive. It was only then that the re- | lief workers realized hope must be given up for saving any in that area. There were sad scenes as the dead were taken from the shaft and iden- tified by their families. Many per- sons came from surrounding towns, some even motoring over the nearby Belgian and Dutch borders. These thronged the town today but a strong force of mounted and foot po- lice kept the crowds at distance from the mine.
 Cause Still Sought
 A government commission contin- ued it's efforts to learn the cause of the explosion. The blast at first was attributed to ignition of dynamite. Coal damp also was suspected. How ever it was the belief that this had Continued on Page Two)

Colchester House and
 Barn Are Burned Down

Colchester, Oct. % P>-Fire of undetermined origin completely de- stroyed the two and a half story house and barn of William Burba on the Willimantic road, two miles from here early today.
 The family, sleeping in the main portion of the house, was able to escape only in night clothes and the fire had gained too much headWay when discovered for fighters from the Colchester fire department to make any headway. The well, be- tween the house and the barn, could not be reached because of the blaze.
 Two horses and a calf were burn ed to death, and all hay, corn, and tools in the barn were destroyed. Damage was estimated at s12,000, a portion of which is covered by insurance.

 Miss Powell waved as Kingsford Smith circled the field once or twice before he landed, but it was not until he taxied his little single en- gined machine across the field to- ward the official dais that he saw her and waved kisses at her.
 When he stopped his plane and throttled it's motor Miss Powell ran out to meet the aviator. And she took his hand as he stepped from the cockpit. They embraced and talked smilingly and happily as they walked toward the cheering crowd of 5000 or more.

NEWSPAPERMAN SAVES BLIND WOMAN IN FIRE l
Crean Carries Her From Smoke Filled Chestnut
 Street House

Gerald P. Crean, sporting editor of the New Britain Herald, carried Mrs Anne Young, 79, and totally blind, out of the first story of the house at Al Chestnut street this aft ernoon after o'clock, when a fire threatened to destroy the structure.
 Crean rushed into her house. which was filled with smoke, and carried her to the street.
 Clouds of smoke enveloped the neighborhood. It appeared as if the flames were in the upper part of the building and were licking at the roof.
 An alarm from Box was sound ed, bringing the greater part of the city fire apparatus to the scene.
 Fireman John D. Blair received a slight cut on the face from flying glass.
