said the voyage required 10 days.

Columbus, who was christened Girls

men the Spanish Cristobal Colon, set
sail from Huelva August 3. The real
exploration began September 6, when
he left the Canary Islands. then the

In the vicinity Of these islands, the
explorer explained, his interest first

COAL GROUP HEAD
ASKS HIGHER PRICE
BoCkuS Advocates Increase
to Raise Profit Margin
and Cover Costs.
By the Associated Press.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, October ~
Looking 1.-The facts straight in the face"
C. E. Bockus, president of the National
Coal Association, said in an address
here today before the annual meeting
of the Ohio Valley Improvement Asso-
citation that there must be an increase
in the realization for coal to restore
some measure of prosperity to the
bituminouS coal industry"
BockuS, who recently invited a group
of coal operators from principal COM
petitive States to meet in New York
October 81 to consider the coal situa-
ton, reviewed the ups and downs OF the
coal industry and pointed out that be-
cause Of the available supply at the
present time mighty few excepting
those dependent upon it for their liveli-
hood or those who have made invest
mentS in coal properties" are worried.
Asks Price Increases.
The New York conference was sug-
gested TO the National Coal Association
by a group of West Virginia operators
upon recommendation of Gov. Conley
of West Virginia, with the statement
that the coal industry itself should take
steps to stabilize its own business.
There must, to solve the problem, I"
Bockus said, "be an increase in price
to cover cost and some margin OF profit.
Competitive fuels and water power viii
limit the figure that can be reached.
There must be a check on 'expediency
selling Not any of these can be &C
complished without a curtailment of
productive capacity to within reasonable
limits of consumption demand
1T is the present-day problem in
many other industries than coal, and
its solution is probably more difficult
with coal than with any other COM
modify. There are so many producers.
such widely divergent conditions Of coal
seams. freight rates and labor"
Sees Little Aid From u. s.
Upon the subject of Government aid,
Bockus asked if the industry could hope
for much help from the Government
except possible cooperation in per-
hitting or assisting in some plan for
our own control of supply" adding
there will certainly never be an at
tempt to stabilize coal prices by large
purchases on the part of the Govern
ment, the futile course adopted with
some agricultural commodities"
Asking if liberalization of the admin
istrstive features of the antitrust laws
would be helpful, Bockus said, There
is only one way to find that out, and
that is to make the experiment"

SCIENTISTS DISCUSS
Election STRUCTURE
Nine. Curie and Six Other Nobel
Prize Winners Attend Meet

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ROME, october 12.-Some Of the
worlds most eminent scientists, includ-
ing Nine Curie and six other Nobel
prize winners. were in the audience at
the opening today OF one-week gath
ering of physicists for discussion of the
electron.
Prof. N. F. Mott of Cambridge UNI
versity told them that a whole new
system Of mechanical laws must be de-
vised to govern the mysterious actions
of the electron 1t hardly ever is legiti-
mate to use the ordinary laws OF me-
chanics in the atomic problem, he said,
and he inferred that the laws Of gravity.
momentum and velocity, which govern
more familiar things, are almost useless
when applied to the unknown world
within the atom.
His subject was so technical that sew
eral in the audience confessed later that
they understood only part Of it.
Nine. Curie, dressed in black, was
in the ront row beside Jean Perrin. the
French physicist, who won the Nobel
prize in 1925.
