human beings, walking dejectedly and

Revolutionary representatives of the
State Of Sac Paulo, Brazil, announced
here tonight that the Paulists con-

They charged that restlessness was
growing in Rio de Janeiro and declared
that most Of the troops of the State of
Rio Grande do Sui had declined to aid

Federal sources in Rio de Janeiro
had different story, although it was
conceded that lack of enthusiasm in
several nominally loyal States was ham,

Paulists, who rebelled two weeks ago
and demanded immediate return to
constitutional government.
Federal forces none the less kept

Official statements came today from

From Asuncion came the charge that

Tiny Jet of Water
Harnessed to Cut
Toughest Alloys
Science Tests Airplane
Metals for Effect of
Weather.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, July 23-To protect
the world aircraft as they hurtle
through storms, bearing their precious
cargoes of human life. science has
harnessed water and made it cut the
hardest steel.
L. w. Chubb, research director for
Westinghouse Electric g. Manufacturing
Co., announced tonight that tiny jet
of water directed with terrific force
against the toughest alloys, has been
made to chisel through the metal.
The purpose is to determine the rate
at which different metals wear away
as they slash through moisture-laden
atmosphere at meteoric speed.
The jet of water reproduces on the
steel in few minutes the wear which
would take place on airplane propellers
spinning at tremendous speed through
rain and fog for months.
Thus experts can make an intelli-
gent study of how various types of
propellers stand up under the strain
of whirling through water-laden space.

stationery and pencils, jewelry, ma
tionally advertised cosmetics, silver
ware, toys and notions, in short a
surprising number Of essential articles

The Garvins have demonstrated
their faith in the Island by starting
in a new enterprise when the future
is anything but clear, and they are
