NEW TELESCOPE
 LATEST DESIGN
Plans Ready for 4O-Inch Reflector With Many
 RefinementS

Washington. (UP)-Dr GeoRge Willis Ritchey, designer of the 100S inch reflecting type telescope in use at Mt Wilson, soon will build for the U. s. Naval Observatory here an in- strument that, because of several new and secret refinement, will rival in scientific importance the ono in California.
 Dr Ritchey was given the con- tract to build a 40-inch refiecting type of instrument shortly after the British scientists revealed plans for the erection of 36-inch telescope at the famous Greenwich Observa- tory.
 Naval officials have been at work on plans for the instrument for over three years and sub-contracts will be let immediately. Dr Ritchey ex- poets to take about 20 months for the construction. $225,OOO Appropriation The last congress authorized a complete modernization of the naval observatory and s225,000 was appropriated. The new telescope will cost $76.O00.
 There have been no major im- provements at the naval station since the completion in 1878 of the 26-inch refractor telescope now in use.
 The 4O-inch glass cast. from which the huge lens for the new in- strument will be ground, is expected to arrive from France within a month. It was made at the Saint Gobain plant near Paris-a. plant that has been making scientific in- struments for 375 years. Dr Ritchey ins enthusiastic over his new project. The 6S-year-old scientist said he hopes to "erect monument to his 35 years of tele- scope building"
 Blueprints Ready He said he has been at work on the drawings and blueprfnts since February. He has established work room in the observatory main building.
 | in existence-makes available about 84 per cent of the light rays. Dr Ritchey expects his new instrument to develop 90 per cent efficiency. This will enable the naval observa- tory staff to produce the most ac- curate and most detailed photo- graphs of the stars and heavenly bodies ever made.
 | The entire instrument will be foated mercury to eliminate fric- ton. Its movements will be sym chronized with the rotation of the earth so as to cut down the per- centage of mathematical error. Plans already are taking form for the dedication of the new telescope. It is expected President Hoover and

Bucharest-Rumania women are SO little aroused at the actions of Premier Nicholas Jorga shown after a recent visit he paid to the depart ment of interior.

APPROVES

Tear Down Part of Ameri- can House for Station
 Ins4allatiOn

Mayor Ernest E. Novey, at a hearing held this morning at City Hall, granted permission to Marola, Pola and Anderson to install a four-pump gasoline station at the intersection of South Main street and Hammond passway, providing that a greasing and oiling pit at the station be inclosed.
 The applicants propose to tear down a portion of the American house building, for a distance Of about 75 feet south from Hammond passway, and install an up-to-date gasoline station there.
 Only one objector to the plan ap- peared at the hearing, Harry o. Hammond stating that he did not like the idea of installing greasing and oiling pit on the side of the building nearest Hammond passway. He stated that he believed the dirt, refuse, etc, usually found near such pits would be detrimental to proper ty on the north side of the passway. Several plans were offered to clear up this objection, including the re- moval of the pit to the rear of the building; the assurance that two men would be working at the sta ! tion at all times and that they would be ordered to keep the pit clean; and. finally, it was given to | understand that the applicants would enclose the pit with an ex- | tension of the building which it is proposed to build in connection with the station.
 Mir Hammond said that he would not object to the station If the pit were inclosed as suggested. Attorney Thomas J. Wall ap- peared for the applicants at the hearing. Brevities

sisted of breaking cables and the

stump puller used for the work. Oscar
Gibler too sustained an injury that
it is hoped will not prove serious. This
injury was caused by head on col
lision between his Uranium and the
sweep of the stump puller. After each
breakage the ferry made wild leap
for the river and the last break left
it sitting with one pontoon in shall
low water. And SO endeth this ferry
