New Canning Industry
Grows Fast i'm Britain

LONDON-No new industry in Great
Britain has undergone such expansion
in the last five years as canning. There
are now at least so firms concerned in
the production of canned goods and
aiming not only to take a large slice Of
home business in such products from
the United States, but to compete in
world markets against American manu-
featuring concerns. In the case OF
fruit, there has been an increase of
more than 500 per cent in production
since 1927 and of vegetables $500 per
cent
But vegetables and fruit are not the
only things being canned in King
Georges realm. The widespread popu-
larity of pork and beans, the homely
chow combination that American man
ufacturers introduced to the British
public, has led British concerns to DO
lot of concentrating on that angle Of
the canned goods business. Some firms
are turning out canned horse for Bel
g!an and other continental markets
where horsef1eSh is much reliShed.
There is no demand here for such fer..
Five years ago there were fewer than
half dozen firms in Britain producing
canned goods. The so or more now Ii
existence operate SO factories and en-
ploy 5000 persons.
Social workers in many industrial
communities say the canned goods habit
is making home cooking lost art ii

TWO brief cables from San Saliva
dor, appearing on the same
page of a local paper few DAYS
i ago. were particularly interest
ing to the student of inter-
American relations. Practically lost in
an ocean of front-page news from all
corners of the earth-war in China,
disarmament conference in Geneva,
reparations and debts cancellation talk
in Germany rebellion in India-the
two small dispatches from the little
Central American capital probably
passed unnoticed. or very nearly so.
And yet. behind those cables, If one
looks at them from the light OF past
experiences, is the confirmation OF one
of the most interesting developments in
the foreign policy Of the United States
during the past few years.
Not very long ago, reviewing the record
of Pan -Americanism in the past II
months, I had an opportunity to stress
once more the appearance OF new
Latin American policy in the State De-
partment, which made itself distinctly
felt last year on several occasions. Out
standing instances of this new attitude
toward the Southern nations, as l
pointed out, were the new recognition
policy of revolutionary governments, the
pronouncement of Secretary Stimson on
the Nicaraguan situation, the stand
adopted by the department as to the
real meaning and scope of the Monroe
Doctrine. and its lack of concern over
the moratoriums and defaults which
the crisis forced on several Latin
American countries whose bonds are ex-
tensively held in the United States.
Events Are Overshadowed.
None of these acts 1 am afraid, has
been sufficiently advertised and COM
mented upon throughout Latin America.
Probably because so many other major
events of political and economic
nature, of much more immediate i'm
portance to them, occupied their minds,
the Latin Americans have not as yet
given proper recognition to the new
policy of the State Department.
Perhaps their skepticism as to the
permanency of these good intentions on
the part of the United States has some
thing to do with it. Opponents of the
United States in Latin America under
value the significance of those recent
successors, or the gentlemen at the
Capitol, may, in the presence of an
emergency, overlook them and return
to the old methods of the big stick"
policy.
1t is true that certain past exper-
fences may justify their suspicion, but
until such thing happens, the Latin
Americans should give Uncle Sam the
benefit of the doubt. And acknowledge
his friendly, equitable attitude of to-
day with q degree of enthusiasm ap-
preaching the condemnation with
which his interventions and big
brother" impulses of yesterday were
received
If we wish to be outspoken in our
criticism we should also be careful in

More Than Passing Attitude.
From the reading of those two cable
grams mentioned above, one is left
with the impression that the new Latin
American policy of the State Depart
ment amounts to something more than
a mere passing, circumstantial atti-
tude.

Ma jOr Demonstrations.
During my recent lengthy visit to the
Soviet Union there took place the fol-
lowing major demonstrations designed
to have vital bearing on questions Of
war or peace between the Soviet Re
public and the rest of the world:

trialistS, reaffirmed his belief in world
revolution and characterized the Soviet
state as a lever in such a revolution.

protectOrate. One does not hear much
of Sierra Leone. yet in 1923 there were
known to be 10000 slaves there
The Mandingo tribe was registered as
holding 35 per cent of its total popula-
ton in slavery, while tie warlike Mendi

Profitable il Liberia.
AS is generally known, the Black
Republic of Liberia, founded for liberated
American slaves, found it highly profit
able to recruit natives in the interior and
lease them to European planters
The League severely condemned the
Liberian government, and President
King and other high officials were
forced to resign. Drastic edicts we're
issued against further enslavement of
natives
Liberia has a population of about
2,500,000, of which only 5000 are en-
franChiSed voters. The descendants of
former American slaves, known as
AmericO-L -LiberianS, number about TO-
900, and heretofore have ruled with
an iron hand Twice, however, the op-
pressed natives have risen in revolt
and only the presence of American
cruisers saved Monrovia from destruc-
tion and the oppressors from complete
annihilation.
Today Monrovia is sitting atop a
volcano-the hinterland being ready to
wipe out the Monrovians at the first
opportunity. The granting OF rubber
concessions to American interests
proved a measure of preservation
for the government. With eight out
breaks since 1850 American ''protec-
ton" was highly desirable.
Yet while Washington and Geneva
sternly rebuke the Liberians for
leasing" their fellow-countrymen into
practical slavery, no criticism has ever
been leveled at the Spanish, French
and British planters at Fernando Pc,
Gabun and the Gold Coast for en-
couraging the Liberians to furnish. for
gold forced labor. So far as the real
story of Fernando Pc and similar dis
tricts is concerned, it has not yet been
told. 1t may be written later-to the
embarrassment of American as well as
European interests.

THE earth is the most perfect
timekeeper of which We have
any knowledge. Man MADE
clocks and time indicators, from
ancient water clocks and nour
glasses to relatively recent pendulum
and balance wheel clocks, give only ap-
proximations of the earths time &C
curacy.
Up until the beginning of the present
century the finest astronomical clocks
made had an accuracy of only one
thirtieth of a second average variation
from their mean daily rate. But
| through steady improvements IN design
and the application Of new regulators
including vibrating crystals and the mo-
| mentum of heavy machinery. TINS mar
gin of error has been so much reouced
| that time may now be kept within an
! accuracy beyond anything scientists ~
/ even two decades ago might nave
imagined possible.
How this has been accomplished and
what it means to scientific research,
engineering and the increasingly COM
pleX pursuits of everyday lie was eX-
planned this week at the Winter con-
vention of the American Institute OF
Electrical Engineers. In a symposium
on time several men who have had
major part in the development of high
precision clocks and Synchronous time
service told for the first time the story
of this work
The greatest strides in high precision
have been made by applying vibrating
quartz crystals to the regulation OF cleo
| tricallv driven timekeepers. Chief among
the eXperimenters in this field has been
A. L. LoomiS. the New York banker,
whose private laboratory at Asbury Park
is famous for the studies being made
there of ultra audible sound and its ef-
fectS.
Regulate Clocks by Crystal.
Extremely rapid vibrations in matter
necessary for the study of -frequen-
cy sound or SupersonlcS may be pro-
! duced through the peculiar property OF
quartz crystals which vlbrate with
constant frequency when properly dl-
rected oscillating current is passed
through them The surprising constan-
cy of the rate of these vibrations, which
NAV be as high as 100000 a second
readily suggests that these vibrations
could be harnessed to timekeeping ap-
paratus to great advantage. Several
such crystal regulated clocks have, in
fact. been constructed.
MIR. Loomis reported that the most
accurate oscillators of this type recently
built have been completed in the Bell
Telephone laboratories primarily for
use as a frequency standard, and q
similar set of crystal oscillators has
been supplied to the United States Bu-
reau of Standards for like use.
In these oscillators the frequency OF
the electrical current generated is con-
trolled by ring of quartz crystal about
three inches in diameter The fire.
quency of the oscillator is the same as
that of the crystal, some 100000 vibra-
tions or cycles second.
In order to operate clock mechanisms
from such apparatus it is necessary to
gear the high frequency of the oscilla-
tor to circuit whose frequency is low
enough to operate motor. Synchro-
nous motors, similar to those used in
ordinary alternating current house
clocks, are employed for this purpose,
and several types of electric circuits
have been devised to make the high
frequency control slower one.
