ULTRAVIOLET RAY
 SHINES FROM BULB
Invention Will Not Be Put on
 Market Yet

Richmond, Va, Oct. II P1In- vention of an experimental electric light of a new type to produce ul- traviolet rays from an ordinary lighting fixture was reported to the annual convention of the Illuminat- ing Engineering society here yester- day
 The lamp is a double bulb, re- sembling pair of ordinary size lamps screwed into a two-way sock ct, and it may be used wherever such socket will fit It is not to be put on the market for at least two years.
 This lamp" said Dr. J. w. Mar den, research engineer of the West inghouse Lamp company, lis de- signed to send out small quantities of healthful ultraviolet rays. It pro- duces a very mild sunburn or red ness of the skin of ones arm held about five inches from the lamp for h to 20 minutes"
 ncCelll uSSClOpllltIlo III hlloNi- edge of effects of ultraviolet on health, such as the work of Maughn and Smiley of Cornell university, who obtained a reduction in incl dence of colds among cold-suscep- tible students by few minutes ar tif1cial ultraviolet each week, have created widespread interest" Dr. Warden added.
 Twin Cuts Voltage
 One of the paired bulbs emits the ultraviolet, and the other, while giving ordinary light, serves as re- sistance to cut down the voltage to it's twin. Thus the ultraviolet comes actually from a lower voltage than that of an ordinary house current.
 So law may this voltage be drop ped, said Dr. Warden, that bulbs scarcely bigger than an automobile

indicated, because of his criticism in a speech at Pittsburgh some months ago of the marine occupa- tion of Nicaragua.
 Quiet on Plans
 Butler declined to discuss spe- officially reports that he would leC- ture or write about his experience in Philadelphia a few years ago when he conducted number of sensa- tional liquor raids as director of public safety, but indicated that some such plan had been presented to him. He spent year in Philadel- phia on leave from the marine corps.
 He admitted that he had been ap- preached by the Association Against the Prohibition 4 Amendmenty but said that he did not intend to asso- ciate himself with "any movement that has any police or prohibition angle to it."
 Buffers most recent tour of duty was in China where he was in charge of a marine force of 2,000 marines sent there to protect Americans dur ing disorders incident to the civil war in that country. He enlisted in the marine corps soon after the out break of the Spanish-American war.

 MARINE SERVICE Plans to Enter Private Business
 After Retiring

Washington, Oct. Il (UP)-Brlg. Gen. Smedley Butler, long a pictur- esque figure in the U. s. marine corps and now commandant at the Quantico, Va, base. is planning to retire soon and enter private busi- ness.
 Butler said yesterday he has been negotiating with private business group. which he did hot designate, and expects to make a decision in the near future. He explained he will not resign, but will retire under the provision permitting retirement after 30 years service. =
 The marine corps officer, who has served with distinction for 33 Years, said the recent selection of Major General Ben H. Fuller as command ant of the marine corps, position to which it was thought in some quarters he would be appointed, had no connection with his decisions

 The reopening of many homes closed during the hottest summer Washington has experienced in years made possible the turnout of the capitals smartest group for the reception at the Egyptian legation in observance of the anniversary of the accession to the throne of King Faud l. Noticeable at the event were Chief Justice and Mrs. Charles Evans Hughes. A score of years ago the capitals society would have been aghast had the coutnry's first justice taken part in such a tribute to royalty.
 Among those who have come back to Washington are Mr. and Mrs. John Hays Hammond whose stately Gothic home overlooks Rock Creek park, surrounded by lovely gardens and many forest trees. MT. Hammond is particularly fond of the mocking birds which frequent his trees and has a constant watch kept to avoid having them molested The songsters furnish constant as- tonishment and delight also to the scholarly minister of Siam, who lives hard by.

dash lamp have been made to give off ultraviolet.
 The ultraviolet bulb is filled with mercury vapor. It's filament elec- irons, when headed by the reduced current, emit electrons like those of a radio tube, These spray outward through the vapor, causing it to go glow with a blue light, and to produce the ultra violet.
 This cloud of flying electrons all So serves to maintain the tempera- ture of the f1laments at constant point, and is the secret of the lamp. Without the buffer effect of the electrons, the filaments would burn out And the globe would blacken so quickly as to become useless.

Policeman Too Willing
 To Admit He's Wrong

New York, Oct. II UP)-Pa- trolman Michael Casamassima, 26, was in a hospital today be- cause his sense of chivalry proved little stronger than his skull. He had an engagement with Mrs. Florence Donate, A, a widow. They went for ride in the patrolman's automobile and an argument started.
 Finally Casamassima confessed
 he was in the wrong, and stopping the car, got out and offered Mrs. Donate his blackjack, telling her to take free swing at him. She did, with vigor, and all though the policeman had to be
 taken to the hospital, they are friends again.

VON PORAT SCORES K. 0.
Morse Heavyweight Puts Angus
 0 Snyder Away in First Round - Socks Him After Bell,

Chicago, Oct. II P}HOtto Von Porat, stately Norwegian, made & comeback appearance in the Coli scum last night, his first since Will liam Stribling knocked him limp in round several months ago, and knocked out Angus Snyder of Dodge City, Kas., in the first round, only to lose the bout on a foul for striking the Kansan after the bell had sounded.
 The Norwegian paralyzer was a much better fighter last night than when he lost to Stribling, and when the bell rang, had Snyder virtually out. Amid the confusion caused by Won Porat's surprising aggressive ness, neither fighter heard the bell and Otto belted Snyder on the jaw with his right. Snyder was knock ed stiff and had to be carried to his corner, where Referee Ed Purdy raised his hand in accordance with the ruling of the judges.

VARIED PROGRAM IN WASHINGTON
Capital Social Set Entertained
 During Week
By Sallie V. r. Pickett

Washington, Oct. II Pl-While ancient hist torians of the social life
 of Washington declared that here
 all seasons looked alike, the official
 formula barring any variety, such certainly is not the case now.
 For seven days an interesting and
 varied program has been given in-
 cluding the celebration of the an- niversary of a kings coronation a reception at the White House and | another by the ranking members of | the cabinet at the Pan American
 Union building.
 Ambassador and ministers of for
 eign lands mingled with the dele gates sent from their countries to the International Road congress-, many of them modest working engineers. While the reception the President and Mrs. Hoover gave them was simple affair-almost two thousand guests shook their hands and then chatted for a while in the East room-the Pan-American Union reception rendered by Sec retary of State Stimson presented more brilliant aspect. There was music and dining and dancing, vet rubbing shoulders with notables in evening dress were many who came from overseas with simply their daytime attire, but who made mer- ry over their 21istakc in carrying light baggage.
 Mrs. Hoover has been invited to open the American Orchid society's fourth exhibition at the Willard hotel October 1G. The entire execu- tive family including Vice President Curtis and his official hostess, Mrs. Edward Everett Gann as well as the diplomatic corps and society nave been invited to a preview of the exhibits. Mrs. s. Pierre Dupont will bring her rarest plants from a collection worth hundreds of thou sands of dollars and Mrs. William K. Dupont, who is a vice president of the society, will show a number of rare blossoms In the collection is one plant for a single cutting of which S10,000 has been offered and refused. The owner feared the plant would be weakened by cutting.
 There is tremendous interest in everything historic in Washington since plans are being made for the bicentenary of Washingtons birth. In a few days society will parade the customes and customs of the earliest history of the city in a pageant, "The East Room" which is to be given in one of Washing tons ballrooms
 The East room at the White House, where Abigail Adams dried her laundry and where countless historic events have taken place through the years will be repro duced as it appeared at different periods Many of the costumes which wrere worn to famous balls will reappear. One scene will repro duce ball given by President and Mrs John Quincy Adams. In an- other, depicting President Buchan- ans reception to the Prince of Wales in 1860.

NEW YORK FOLKS
 LEAVING COUNTRY
City Homes Being Opened for Winter Season
By ADELAIDE KERR

New York, Oct. II. PeSociety' $ stars and satellites are turning from summer wanderings throughout the | universe and moving back into the molten milky way that lies between Park avenue and Broadway. The social constellation will not blaze in full glory until October 27, when the rising of the Metropolitan Opera House curtains before the iewelled occupants of the golden horseshoe marks the launching of the first social meteor. But the first glimmers of the season already are to be seen and social stars are speeding back to the city of light to set in motion plans fQr the debuts of their butterfly daughter and SUD- pers, balls and teas for their own amusement.
 The list of /debutantes is larger than ever-it numbers almost 300 and includes a number of shining lights. With so many butterflies scheduled to dance about the social flame, confusion has arisen in dates and arrangements and several debutantes are scheduled to make their bows to society on the same night.
 The debutante whirl will begin with the autumn ball in the chrys- anthemum- -decked clubhouse at Tuxedo park on October 25, and will spin on with increasing speed until New Years. Among those who will make their bows this sea- son are Miss Barbara Hutton, heir ess daughter of Franklyn L. Hutton, Elizabeth de Rham and Lydia Elagden.

Despite town activities, the jingle of spurs and creak of saddle leath- CT have drawn number of society's members to the country for the last horse shows and steeplechase or the season. Many of the social lights motored to Locust Valley, l.. I. for the Piping Rock horse show and remained at night for the "Grandfather's Dance," which they attended in costumes worn by their grandparents.
 Today the smart world swept into Westchester for the fourth annual meet of the Ensign Steeplechase at the Bedford estate of Langhorne Gibson, a son of Charles Dana Gib- son, illustrator. Five races are scheduled for the steeplechase in which both the horsemen and horsewomen of society will take part.
 Tonight, after the event, the smart folk will flock to the Black, White and Scarlet ball which is be- ing given by Mrs. Eldon Bisbee, and then home in the wee sma' hours.
