historical adventure.
 The first suggestion for this novel tour came from the Soviet academician, Prof Otto Schmidt, who is an authority on Arctic ex- ploration It is his idea that if the initial attempt is successful the Arctic as a happy hunting grounds for tourists may be developed on a large scale.
 The Malygin is equipped not only for comfortable travel, but for se- rious scientific work, so that the plans probably will appeal to scien- lists as well as ordinary hunters and tourists. Soviet officials be- lieve a good many Americans will be interested in this polar triY.
 The tour will be timed to coin- eide with the endless polar day the sun will not set through the entire journey. Practical experi- ence has shown, according to Pro- lessor Schmidt, that health condi- tions in the Arctic during the sum- mer months are excellent and that there is no danger of illness.

Souief Organization Plans
 Sightseeing Arctic Tour

MOSCOW, Jan. 22-Sight-seeing and hunting tours above the Arctic Circle in one of the famous Soviet ice-breakers are being planned for next summer by the Soviet organ iZation In Tourist.
 From thirty to fifty foreign guests, according to incomplete plans. will set out next summer on the ship Malygin for two months or ten weeks tour of the farthest north, touching places like Nova zemlya, Franz Joseph Land and the group of islands between them discovered recently.
 Experienced polar hunters will accompany the foreign group and help them track down the rarest and most valuable polar animals as well as specimens of the whale and seal families. The Malygin acquired world wide fame, it will be recalled. as one of the Soviet rescue ships which helped save survivors of the Mobile flight in 1928. Some mem bers of the crew. in fact, will be the same who participated in that

SUN IS DESCRIBED
 AS BIG ELECTRIC
 LIMP IN HEAVENS

Gum has been working upon the intricate mathematical calculations which have led him to his revolu- tionary conclusions. Astronomers at Mount Wilson Observatory, Califor- mia have made careful measure ments of the strength of the mag netism around the sun. These studies showed that the sun had an electrical field similar to that of the earth. Starting with these observed facts, Dr. Gum began his calculations and built up his theory that explains several of the hither- to baffling puzzles about the hub of our universe.
 From the surface of this giant star, he assumes, there are stream ing into outer space molecules charged with negative electricity. Tn passing through the solar atmos- phere, which consists of the re- versing layer nearest the sun, the chromosphere above it and the shooting, flaring corona at the outer limits. the electrified par ticles meet resistance. As result, they heat the gases to incandes- cence, just as does the electric cur rent passing through the filament of an ordinary bulb.

NEW YORK CITY, N. Y. Jan. 22.-Our sun is huge electric light. All the stars. suns more or less like ours, are twinkling electric lights, each with a filament hun dred thousand miles in length.
 This is the startling new theory of the nature of the sun and of the universe advanced recently by Dr. Ross Gum of the United States Naval Research Laboratory, Wash ington, D. C. Dr. Gum says that electricity runs the sun and that it glows exactly like a manmade in electric lamp glows, writes Robert E. Martin in The Popular Science Monthly.
 Millions of volts of current, Dr. Gum told the writer, turn the sol- ar atmosphere into a vast incan- descent filament that furnishes our light and heat. So great is this flow of power that, he estimates, if 1t were paid for at present rates, the entire wealth of the United States would be required to keep this ce- lestial lamp shining for one-mil- lionth of a second.
 Theory Is Revolutionary

RESENTMENT SHOWN THAT LAW HAS FAILED
Declare Commission's Re- port Is Precursor to
 New Demands

WINDSOR, Ontario, Jan a. The report of the United States Law Enforcement Commission stres- sing the claim the Canadian anti export law has failed to reduce the flow of liquor across the border will probably have an echo in the next session of the House of Com mons.
 Col. Sidney Robinson is to spon- sor a resolution to abandon the export ban
 Col. Robinson said Canada's ges- ture, made in neighborly goodwill, has brought nothing but slaps in the face"
 Col. Robinson referred to com- mutting difficulties of persons liv- ing in Windsor and working in De- troit. He said Canada had lost $15,000,000 in returns by banning legal exporting to aid the United States in enforcing Prohibition.
 Col. Robinson said the United States has shot a tariff against Canadian goods sky high and launched campaign to oust Can adians from jobs in the United States. The report of the Law Enforcement Commission is pre- cursor to demand for further restrictive legislation by Canada"

Commissar Believes Inter national Bourgeoise
 Will Attack
Associated Press Phots

MOSCOW, Jan. 22.-The Soviet nation is threatened with the great est war in history, War Commits sar Voroshilov said today in ad- dressing a Congress of Communist youths.
 The War Commissar said the na- tion must organize to defend the country against "the country which first draws a sword against us"
 Three million young Communists compose the Congress and 100000 are in the army.
 Our country is Socialistic Island surrounded by capitalistic enemies" said the War Commis- sar, land we are in danger of attack. It is growing obvious that an International Bourgeoise is pre- pairing to march against us. Capi- talism planes the Soviet for all of its misfortunes and the coming war will be a factor for an- initiation of men. We must face the attack with trained army"

PRESIDENT DID NOT INTERFERE
 IN DRY REPORT
All Disagreements Arose Among Commission
 CTS Themselves
SENATE INVESTIGATION IS THOUGHT PROBABLE
Details of Various Meetings Disclose Much Bit
 terneSS

WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 22.- Enough of the inside story of the Wickersham Law Enforcement Com mission has been disclosed to indi- cate the bitterness of some of the internal differences but there is no authoritative support for reports that disagreement arose either from interference of President Hoover or in alteration of the report after it had been signed
 While in course of preparation the wording was changed frequent ly in an attempt to compile a draft that all eleven Commissioners could sign in the end.
 All but Monte M. Lemann, of New Orleans, signed the report.
 Lemann so far has declined to make any comment, but may be asked with the other members of the Commission to appear before a Senate Investigating Committee.
 Commissioners in private talks continue to deny that President Hoover headed off the modification proposal. They say all of the many disagreements arose among the Commissioners themselves.

CHAMBER URGES AGAINST RAISE
 IN RAIL RATES
Joins in Protest Against Proposed Boost in AL
 aska Railroad Rates

The Chamber of Commerce today voted to protest to the Department of Interior against any advance in freight and passenger tariffs on the Alaska Railroad. It will pre- pare a resolution on the subject, forwarding a copy to the Secretary of Interior and another to the Ma tional Chamber of Commerce ask ing it's assistance in presenting the subject to the Department.
 Increased rates, declared 0. T. Gardner, will not only handicap the districts directly adjacent to the railroad, but also Southeast Alaska. They will adversely affect tourist traffic and andicap local timber in- dustries which in the past few years have derived considerable business from the road itself and communities that it serves.
 Others Also Protest
 Other Alaska business organi- cations, including the chambers of commerce at Anchorage, Seward, Fairbanks and Cordova, have taken similar action. All of them assert that higher tariffs will be disas- trous to development and will re- duce freight and passenger move ment over the route.
 Increased rates, 50 per cent on freight and 66 2-3 on passengers, were recommended by the Senate Select committee that investigated the railroad last summer. Recently, Senator Howell, Chairman of the Committee announced the recom- mendation had been approved by Secretary Ray Lyman Wilbur, of the Interior Department, and that the advances would be made short ly.
 Alaska Livestock Industry
 Two visitors of the Chamber to- day stressed the livestock growing possibilities of the Territory. The Aleutian Islands are unusually fav- orable for sheep raising, declared Charles Moffatt, who has been en- gagged in the industry at Unalaska for several years Southeast Alaska offers a fine opportunity for raising Angora and milch goats, said Judge R. w. DeArmond, pioneer of Sitka, and formerly connected with the Government Experiment Stations in Alaska.
 Alaska is very badly misunder- stood by Alaskans as well as out siders," declared MT. Moffatt. Many local people do not fully realize the extent of the Territory's varied resources capable of useful develop ment.
 The raising of sheep on the Aleutians does not involve as many hazards as in the desert regions of Idaho and Montana even in the winter months and conditions are even more favorable in the Alaska regions in the summer, he said. The cost of growing the animals here are less; transportation is as cheap;

 Ellis Panson Oberholter, noted Philadelphia historian, corroborated Monck.
 No sound was produced by the bell after 1885," he said. T feel warranted in saying that without even going to the authorities. Dr. Stoudt's theory is entirely new, but there seems to be no reason for questioning the earlier date"
