SCIENCE PROBING SECRET OF SHOCK
 FROM SANDSTORM

LUBBOCK, Tex, Sept 8.-What puts electricity in the sandstorms of the Middlewest is the object of an experiment being conducted at Texas Pathological College.
 Citizens of West Texas since the days of early settlers have ex- perienced the electrical manifesto tions from contact with wire fences automobiles, radio antennae and even insulated conductors.
 Ranchers have been knocked down cutting off windmill with a chain windleSs.
 The department has measured more than 10000 volts by using a radio antenna and spark gap.
 "On accidentally coming in con- tact with the wire, one is almost knocked down." Dr. E. F. George head of the department, said.
 When the sandstorm is in full blast, this spark gap sounds almost like a 22 rifle"
 Dr. George is certain the charge "is not due to friction between the wind and the wire" He said however, that it might be due to friction between molecules of the air, grains of sands and dust par ticleS and the wire.
 Sometimes the humidity here is so low that there is practically nc water vapor in the air to absorb the sunlight.
 Under these conditions" Dr George said, "the sunlight beating down on the uppermost dust layer must be rich in ultraviolet rays These actinic rays would probably ionize (electrify) some of the dust particles"

PRESS CURB URGED
TO STOP LOTTERIES
Foreign Gambling Schemes
Aided by Publicity, U. S.
Officials Say.

B. the Associated Press
The finger of the Federal Govern
ment was lifted yesterday against Amer
lean participation in foreign sweep
stakes-considered by officials gamble
making the louisiana lottery. OF ola
seem a mere pign1v' in comparison.
Solicitor Donnelly sought the CO.
operation of newspapers in a campaign
already begun in response to protests
piled literally feet upon feet in depart
ment files.
TT is the intention of this department
to strictly enforce the drastic provisions
of the statute against lotteries" DON
nelly said in a formal statement, with
a view to breaking up an unlawful
practice which recently has grown to
such huge proportions in American
cities, towns and villages. as to border
on national disgrace"
Cites Provisions Of Law.
Calling attention to the specific
language of the law, the solicitor said
1t barred from the mails any publica-
ton listing "any part or all" of prizes
offered in any lottery or chance scheme.
This would include newspapers printing
the name of one winner.
Officials interpret the laws as safe
guards against the robbery of thousands
to pay big prizes to few. In recent
months foreign sweepstakes have spread
their operations like mushrooms in the
United States, it was said, and officials
believe the growth has been abeted by
publicity given free to the ventures and
to the famous sporting events on which
they often are based.
Along with such sweepstakes other
chance enterprises are being worked.
The department has issued fraud
order against an organization preparing
to employ-from another country--the
same "sweepstake" methods in connec-
ton with the forthcoming Nation open
golf tournament of the United States.
Total Huge Sums.
On the big sporting events the sweeps
operators draw prize coupons from great
revolving drums, paying off the in
dividuals who sold the tickets as we'll
as the holders. This year new system
was provided to give more prizes. In
one enterprise in connection with a
British horse race the subscriptions
were $15,000000, the prizes a total of
about $10,000,000. There were about
1900 prizes for a race in which only
rs horses were entered.
Officials consider this plain robbery
OF thousands to pay to very few big
prizes. 1t is believed that the enter
prises could not grow as they have
recently without the free advertising
they have received in American news
papers.
Many of the enterprises are pure
fake" in the eyes of officials. One that
came to notice was to organize "a club" !"
in which thousands would buy tickets
on the chance of being named an officer
by lottery draw with big salary"
