HOOVER RETURNS TO
MASS OF BUSINESS
Press Of Many Affairs Causes
President to Postpone
Rapidan Parleys

Washington, June 19.-R)-Presi-
dent Hoover turned his attention Fri
day to q mass Of business accumulat-
ed on his desk while he was in the
central states delivering four speeches
Returning to Washington Thursday
the chief executive Immediately be-
gan work on a large pile of mail. In
addition, a number Of problems and
situations confront him, including the
new war debt and PREPARATIONS dis
cussions, and departmental matters.
The press Of business caused the
abandonment Of plans to 60 to the
Rapidan camp this weekend, al
though several departments have yet
to review their finances with the pres
ident, looking to possible reductions in
expenditures. Most Of the depart
ments have completed that task and
the president hopes to finish that
work with the others before the next
fiscal year begins July l.
The sight of prospect bumper crops
throughout the rich agricultural re-
gion visited caused Mr.. Hoover to be
cheerful and optimistic over condi-
lions In that section.
The increase in retail store sales
mentioned In the Indianapolis speech
as one or the favorable factors" as
serting themselves, Is looked upon In
administration circles as having an
unusual effect on small industries.
This in turn, 1t was said, Is decreas-
ing unemployment in the secondary
industrial cities.
The fast trip through the great
farming belt Of the central states
seemed to have tired the president
less than some Of the members Of his
party. Weather throughout was hot
and In Springfield he spoke under a
canvas awning upon which . blister
ing sun was beating.

Surprisingly Strong
X-Ray Tube Produced
1000, 0O0-voIt Device Produces
Rays EquaIing 100000
Grams of Radjum

Pasadena. Cal. June l9.-(P)-Two
German professors who four years
ago adopted Benjamin Franklin'S
idea of trying to harness the thun-
derbolt have built an X-ray tube that
has surprised the scientific world.
BY disregarding most laws for
building X-ray tubes, they took some
rubber. some paper, some aluminium
and some used crankcase oil and
built a little three-foot instrument
more powerful than all the radium In
the world, and infinitely greater than
the most powerful X-ray tubes that
other scientists considered feasible.
The story of the big tube built by
Professors F. LANCE and A. Brasch OF
the University of Berlin was unfolded
before the American Association for
the Advancement of science here
yesterday.
The foremost authorities In the
world on X-ray building were there.
The main problem hinged upon the
destructive effect of electrOn glide
currents on the inside of the glass
that destroyed costly high power
tubes.
Alexander Goetz, Pasadena, read a
paper by Professor LANCE and Brasch,
who were not present.
Clasps Of establishment were heard
IS the paper was read. 1t told OF
construction of a 2,000,0 900 volt X-ray
tube, powered by a surge generator OF
the condenser type, producing hard
gamma rays equal to 100000 grams
The very problem which others had
been discussing as an obstacle, was
used by the Germans as a stepping
stone. Instead of glass for the cleo
irons to glide on, the Germans built
the tube out of paper, rubber and
rings Of aluminium. Not having the
money for expensive transformer oil
to immerse it In, they turned to crank
case DRAWINGS.
Then they put the electron glide
menace Of present tubes to work by
building a creased pole for these
electrons to slide down the center OF
the tube, a porcelain cylinder.
The paper concluded with the an
nouncement 10000 volt tubes we're
possible, and scientists believe If the
experiments Of the Germans are car
ried to a successful conclusion the
mystery of the cosmic ray will be
solved, and great advances made in
the use of X-rays against cancer and
other things.
