Scientists Unable to
Explain "Cosmic Rays"

For many years scientists have been
puzzled by rays of enormous penetrat.
Ing power which are found to reach
every part of the earth's surface. The
most powerful X-rays are completely
stopped by less than a quarter of an
inch of lead; these cosmlc rays, as
they are called. pass easily through 10
feet Of lead What are they and
whence do they come?
1t is known that they come from out
side the earth, for no response is OBJ
tanned when detecting apparatus is
used at the bottom Of deep coal mine.
Sir James Jeans believed they were
caused by the humiliation of matter
at the very confines of the universe.
DIR. Robert Millikan held the opposite
view. He believed they were brought
about by the creation of matter, and lie
called them the birth cries Of nature"
These rays can now be counted as
they arrive by means of an amazing
electrical device known as the Geiger
counter. They dart through vessel
filled with electrified gas, and as each
impulse arrives 1t causes click to be
uttered by loudspeaker. Intensive
research in connection with cosmlc
rays is being carried on, and interest
ing discoveries may be in store.

HOOVER TREND
Will Make Repeated APP
peals Against Radical
ism in All His Future
Campaign Speeches

Washington, Oct 13.-CUP)-
President Hoover has decided to
carry on his campaign for re-elec-
ton with repeated appeals against
"radicalism," it was indicated by
his American Bar association adj
dress. 4
He arraigned "false prophets of
millennium" and warned that "our
very form of government is on
trial." in that address last night.
The interests of the people
soften in history" the president
told the convention in his Constitu-
tional hall address, had been be-
trayed by "false prophets" who
offered Seductive but unavoidable
and disastrous theories of govern
ment."
He warned that "the menace is
doubled by the fact that these vain
allurements are being offered to
our harassed people by men of
public reputation in economics and
even by men in public 'life."
The reference, was generally ac-
copied as an attack on campaign
statements of Governor Franklin
D. Roosevelt and other democratic
leaders.
