.P|NCHOT' s WIFE
FLAYS LOBBY

PHILADELPHIA, April 3.-The
most shameless lobby that has
been conducted against the rights
of the people in a generation" is
now under way in the State SEN
ate as the result of the efforts Of
public utility leaders to thwart
Governor Pinchot's opposition to
the public service commission, the
wife of the governor declared here
yesterday.
Mrs. clifford Pinchot spoke at
a meeting of the Philadelphia
Federation Of Women's Clubs and
Allied Organizations at the Bel
levue-Stratford and accused the
public service commission of be-
ing a mere tool of the public
utilities.
Long Fight Ahead
Mrs. Pinchot told the heads Of
local clubs that pressure, coer-
cion, intimidation, threats and
inducements" are being used by
powerful interests to swing State
senators against Governor Pin
chot in his public utility fight.
But the speaker asserted that
initial defeats Of the governors
aims in this matter mean moth
ing" since the battle will be
waged for at least four years.
Attacks Foes of PinchOt
A powerful invisible govern
ment" of utility magnates and
special interests is backing the
Philadelphia gang" in opposition
to the administration program,
she said.
She added:
"The house is overwhelmingly
right It can be counted upon
to stand fast and to vote, first,
last and all the time to repre-
sent the people.
Senate Under Ware
"In the senate, however, the
situation is far less satisfactory.
By a narrow margin of two
votes the Ware leader, Daix, was
elected as president pro tenn
pore, and is now using every
power of his office to swing the
senators into line at the bid
ding of the utility leaders. Pres
sure, coercion, intimidation,
threats and inducements of one
kind and another are being
used.
"The fight will 90 on during
Mr.. PinchOt's four years in Of
flee. He is not going to let up
for one second, and, as he said
in his campaign, he will be
fighting at the last minute of
the last day of his office"

RADIUM REVEALS
BATTLESH|P FLAWS
Photo as With x-Ray Taken
Through Steel by Use
of New Method.

~ the Associated Press.
Science has given the Navy q new
way Of making sure its fighting ships
are structurally sound.
1t now hguratively looks through
every piece of steel that goes into a
vessels construction to see that 1t con-
tains no defects that might endanger
the ships usefulness.
A capsule the size of pea containing
Tadium makes this possible. It is placed
10 inches from steel casting and a
specially sensitized Photographic plate
is exposed on the other side. The re-
suit Is the equivalent of an X-ray
picture.
Chester Fully Tested.
When the last of the Nays big
cruisers, the Chester, was ready for
service, it was put In dry dock at
Hampton Roads and scientists from the
Naval Research Laboratory here photo
Rraphed every casting in the ship.
One serious flaw was discovered, q
defective stern post, highly important
piece Of metal subjected continually to
enormous strains. On the ships final
trial run, which followed, the stern
post broke and had to be replaced. It
was cut up and examination exactly
confirmed what had been revealed by
photography.
Castings 1917 inches thick have been
successfully photographed at the Naval
Laboratory, where the process was de-
veloped under direction of DR.. Robert
F. Mehl; superintendent Of the metal
lurgical division.
The process utilities the Gamma-ray.
The same results have been achieved
with x-ray by stepping 1t up to 1900, 900
volts.
Simple and Portable.
Ths advantage of the new method is
described as lying primarily In its
simplicity and portability. It can be
used where X-ray would be out Of the
question.
Beyond assuring the structural sound
ness Of the Navy ships, the process has
great industrial possibilities In that it
viii permit ready experimentation in
steel casting with simple and certain
check on the results.
Heretofore, it has been necessary to
cut casting up In order to test it for
defects. With DR.. Mehls method 1t Is
now necessary only to look through" it.

DUBLIN, Irish Free State, March
27.-The Saorstat today mourned Tim
otl1y Michael Healy, Irish parliament
tartan extraordinary and its first gov
ernor general, who died last night after
. three weeks illness. He was rs years
old.
The end had been foreseen for several
days, although he was Ill with what was
thought to be only bad cold for some
time before seriousness of his malady,
q bronchial affection, was appreciated.
He took turn for the worse yesterday
morning, and his son was summoned
to his bedside. Death came at 7:50 pm.
As a member OF Parliament for what
Is now the Saorstat, Healy founded a
tradition Of his own, the Irish Nights, -
In which he would sit back with his
siIk hat tipped over his nose, pretend
ing not to listen to debate. Suddenly
ne would arise, obtain the floor and
make a speech Of vitriol coated with
honeyed Irish words.
He withdrew from the House Of Com
mons when the Free State got its own
Parliament and became Arst Saorstat
governor general, serving from 1922 to
1928.
