Colorful Career.
Few offers Of the Army have had a
more colorful or varied career than
Gen. Mccoy during his 35 years in
service AS young lieutenant. he was
wounded at the battle of San Juan
HILL in Cuba, and thereafter he began
series Of unusual services to the Gov
ernment in non-military as we'll as
military capacities. It was as aide to
Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood. then military
Governor of Cuba. in 1902, that Gen
Mccoy obtained his first experience in
governmental affairs. Later, in 1906
he served as aide to President Theodore
Roosevelt and was a member of the
Peace Commission to Cuba.
During the World War Gen. Mccoy
served on the front in a number of
offensives being promoted from colonel
to brigadier general, and also served
as director of Army transport service
and director general Of transportation.
Serves on Missions.
His valuable diplomatic experiences
again were utilized by the Govern
ment in 1919, when he was member of
Gen. Harbord's military mission to
Armenia and year later he was ap-
pointed a member of the Wood-ForbeS
mission Of investigation to the Philip
pine Islands and later was made
assistant to Maj Gen. Wood during the
latter's term as Governor General of
the Philippines.
During the great earthquake in
Toxic in 1923 Gen. Mccoy was In
charge Of American relief activities In
more recent years he directed the cleo
tons in Nicaragua and in 1923 was
made chairman Of the Bolivian-Para-
guayan Boundary Commission that en-
deavored to settle the Chaco dispute.
It was as member of the Lytton Com
mission that he probably rendered
his most conspicuous service to the
Government.

from the Equator toward the poles, o. from
sea level to given height, Is very well known.
A man weighing 200 pounds at the Equator
will weigh about 2o1 pounds at either pole
Gravity Is less at the top of . mountain than
it is at sea level in the same latitude But
deep down In the crust Of the earth, concealed
from view, are other gravity variation causes
which form interesting fields Of study.
Accuracy in measuring sea gravity was
worked out by DR.. F. A. Vening Meinesx Q
Dutch scientist, a few years ago. He designed
a special form of multiple pendulum apparatus
which can measure gravity of the earth be-
meath the So from q submerged submarine.
During the past 10 years DR.. Meiness has
taken part in seven or eight important gravity
at-sea expeditions. two Of which were on
United States submarines and the rest on
Dutch submarines. BE has made more than
600 determinations, for each of which the sub
marine has had to submerge to a depth of so
10 feet and remain there for at least an
hour. He has completed q string Of stations
entirely around the world and, in addition.
has made a large number Of measurements
near both the East Indies and West IndieA
BY the use of his invention Dr. Meinesz has
made an important finding regarding the
gravity action IN q narrow belt hundreds Of
miles long in the East Indies. Here the pull
of gravity has been determined to be decidedly
subnormaL This belt Is partly in shallow
water and partly in Deep but it has definite
parallelism with . string Of volcanoes on the
islands. Its general form, says DR.. Meinesx,
seems to indicate that there is a great pushing
OF the Asiatic continent toward Australia. In
the West Indies he has found q similar belt
of deficient gravity.
To ascertain the extent Of this subnormal
gravity belt and how 1t got that way win re-
quire many more determinations on the Part
of DR.. Meinesz and his assistants. But when
these questions are answered the cause of, II
not the cure for, some Of Mother Earth's
spasms may be solved. Such is the opinion
of the United States Coast and Geodetic Sur
vey which has co-operated with DR.. Meines1
in much Of his gravity work in this hemisphere.

1.-TWO Of Mother Earth's sorest spots are
located on either side of the United
States The East Indies in the Pacific
Il Ocean and the West Indies IN the At
lantic vie with each other in being rocked and
torn asunder by terrific earthquakes or con-
vllsed by volcanoes. Geographically obscure,
these little groups Of islands loom with tre-
mendous importance scientifically and have
become the focal point in recent years of
scientific Investigations which, when completed.
may solve the mystery Of some Of the physical
disturbances Of Mother Earth It does not
require q scientific mind to follow with interest
the remarkable findings Of these diaeno'dcaans
at the bedside Of the 'old lady"
In the West Indies group of islands there are
compression ridges caused, apparently. by the
pushing together Of the sections OF the eartn.
At other points many miles Of solid rock have
been sheared through as though they were
Jelly, huge mountains folded up and caves
scooped out Of the bottom Of the ocean, 20
fathomless that II all the people in the world
and all the structures they have ever built
were all thrown into one Of them It would be
almost impossible to detect any difference m
its depth.
Why are some places more subject to these
dreadful cataclysms than others? What part
does the ancient mystery of gravity play In
the solution Of the upheavals OF oceans, Of
volcanic activity? These are some Of the
questions that scientists the world over have
are busy studying the kinds Of rocks to be
found in the "sore spots," IN what manner
they have been distorted and in what direc-
ton the force that twisted and sheared them
had its origin. Seismologists are recording the
slightest shivers Of the "old lady" and COM
pairing the records on instruments located At
different distances from the epicenters to md
out how fast they travel in different directions,
hoping thus to learn about the elastic strength
of the rock deep below the surface. Hydro
graphers are measuring the depth Of ocean
waters IN order that q complete map Of the
bottom Of the ocean may be obtained to serve
as a basis for many other studies Volcanolo-
gists are turning their microscopes upon the
gravel Of volcanic eruptions; biologists theirs
upon submarine plant and animal life. Are
these sore spots" conducive to the creation
of coral reefs they ask, and have they . rela-
ton to the sediments found at the bottom Of
the sea? Geodesists are making gravity OBJ
servations both on land and water to deter
mine how the pull Of the earth varies from
place to place
The most extensive Of the investigations In
this connection have been the series Of gravity
determinations in the West Indian island area
and surrounding waters. The variation Of
gravity over the surface Of the earth Is very
small, but it is the key, say scientists, to many
Of the secrets otherwise locked up in the crust
Of the earth. The normal change Of gravity
