RADIO PESTS

Major Ernest w. Brown, po-

House Merchant Marine Commit
tee yesterday. that citizens are
interfering with the proper func-
tioning of the police because pri-
vate automobiles are equipped
with short wave receiving sets
and can pick up police broad
casts. He asked that the use of
such sets be restricted to police
cars.
The police official declared
that so many people were lis
tening to the police broadcasts
Tuesday that scores arrived at
Griffith Stadium, where a riot
was in progress, before the police.
Hearing was on bill which is
designed to prevent criminals
from using short wave sets.

2,000,000-VOL7 I
/ X-RAY TESTS
REVEALED

Production of 1000, ,000-volt
X.rays by a scientific Juggling me.
thod was described today to the
American Physical Society by DR.,
Jesse w. M. Dumond, of Califor,
mia Institute of Technology.
Previous high-voltage X-rayS,
useful in cancer and atomic re-
searches, never exceeded 100000
volts.
How His System Works
DR.. Dumond utilized something
OF the relationship between
pitcher and batter in baseball
games in his apparatus producing
the ultra hard" 2,000,000-volt
rays.
Rays at the previous high vol.
tage of 100000 volts are
pitched" so to speak. at an elec-
trical Babe Ruth, who bats the
rays back to a given spot at an
additional speed of 100000 volts
The rays thus arrive at the target
with the voltage of the pitcher
plus the voltage added by the
imaginary batter.
Technically, the rays are shot
from the terminal of a high-volt-
age Tesla coil through a mag
netic liens" which focuses them
on a magnetic mirror" which
bats them off in slightly differ
ent direction with a boost of
100000 volts of energy.
Second Cycle Is Used
The second cycle of the orig
inal 1,OO0,OO0-volt alternating
current is used for the bat-like
impetus obtained from the mag
netic mirror"
X-rays are, in reality, high
speed electrons, and thus a steady
stream of home runs, figura-
lively speaking, are being batted
out by the mirror" against
which the original 00O,O00-volt
rays are shot.
DR.. Dumond said the instru-
ment has performed so effectively
to date that he soon will begin
experiments of a fundamental
nature on atoms.
These studies will include the
scattering" effects obtained when
the electrons, speeding at 2,000,'
900 volts of energy, are shot into
various elements.

"The different interests per-

TEXAS OIL CO.
SAFE LOOTED
BEFORE DAWN
Part OF Pelf Recovered
Reducing Loss to
Around $500
RECORD IS MADE OF
FINCERPRINTS FOUND

Personal papers of J. H. Rea-
ben, manager Of the Texas vi! Co.,
were found shortly before noon
today at q distance of several hun
dred yards down the railway
tracks in the direction of Ashe-
vile. A number of checks were al
so found, reducing the amount of
money missing in the robbery
there early today to about 5000,
Mr.. Reaben said.
The papers were found by
railway section worker.
A finger print expert was call
ed in late this morning and finger
printed the front of the safe and
window sill. The fact that the pa
pers were found down the tracks
led to the belief that the men had
escaped on a freight train.
Safe crackers early this morn
ling looted the safe of the Texas
Oil Co., on Ash street of between
$500 and $1,000 and escaped. Of
ficers of the police department
and sheriff's department this
morning were conducting an in
vestigation.
Entrance TO the yard Of the OF
company was gained over the back
fence which fronts on the South
ern railway. tracks, and entrance
' to the office was gained through
a small window which was left OPP
en-.
The safe was forced by break
! ing off the combination wheel and
chizzling off the combination. The
cash drawer of the safe was fore
ed open and the money removed.
The, cash drawer was found this
morning at the rear of the build
ing and checks and $3.50 in pen
MES had not been taken.
The robbers left their tools,
consisting of an axe, a sledge ham
mer, pliers, and cold chisel on the
floor in front of the safe. On leav-
ing the office the bandits opened
the front door which was left OPP
en-. In addition to the money mis-
sing, valuable papers Of j. H. Rea-
ben, manager, had not been found
this morning.
The robbery was discovered by
C. F. Pittillo, clerk, when he went
to work this morning.
There are two safes in the Of
flee, and the bandits evidently
knew in which the money was
kept as the second safe was not
touched.
The robbery was fixed at be-
tween 8 80 and 4 a. m. this morn
ling. Colored people living across
the street reported that they heard
a noise in the building about that
time.

Paralysis And Destruction OF

Calls Attention to Closing Of Five Textile Mills in

One of the reasons, 1900 codes

the elaborate procedure required
for the drafting and approval Of
such agreements.
Recovery officials say the pro-
cess was worked out carefully in
an attempt to assure fair hear
ing for all units in each industry
and to reduce errors and inJus-
tees to a minimum.
Formulation of a code, whether
for small industry employing a
few thousand persons or for a
billion dollar industry begins when
the industry addresses an inquiry
to. the control division of the
NRA. Application blanks are sent
to all members of the industry,
along with contracts that eventu-
ally will be signed between the
federal government and the in
dustry. These contracts obligate
the industry to abide by the ulti-

TRADE EXPANSION JUBILEE
Will START ON THURSDAY
Three-Day Event in Line With NRA Program Receiv.
ing Wide Endorsement Of Officials
in This Region

Probably the first joint trade
movement ever undertaken in
Western North Carolina is the
NRA Trade Expansion Jubilee be-
ing celebrated Thursday, Friday
and Saturday of this week HG!t
Iersonvii,e anu ah the leading
towns of the section are cooper
ating in making the event a most
successful example of cooperative
effort on the part of merchants
and retailers of the various locali-
ties in the eighteen mountain
counties.
The NRA Trade Expansion
Jubilee is receiving endorsement
of all the mayors in Western Car
DINA towns, as well as the chair
men of the county commissions.
These officials are issuing procla-
nations and urging our people to
trade on these three days, Aug
ust, "a, 25, and 26-that they
may save against advancing prices
and help also to speed the return
of our nation to business norm
alcy.
With costs in all lines of mer-
chandise rising as a result Of in
creased commodity prices and
higher wage and salary scales, the
NRA Trade Expansion Jubilee, 1t
is pointed out, offers very
special opportunity for everybody
to supply their needs at prices
which in few weeks will look re-
markedly low. 1t is recognized
that the price level of the i'm
mediate past, and to a large ex-
tent the price level still existing,
is abnormally low, and this man.
moth trade event is presented as
very likely the finsl " chance of
profiting by it.
The movement, furthermore, is
in direct lines with the efforts of
the administrators of the National
Recovery Act. Consumer buying
is the only thing that starts the
wheels Of industry turning in a
really effective manner. The re-
placement demand thus created is
Immediately reflected in factory
and manufacturing activity, which
means bigger payrolls, expanded
purchasing power, and the general
business expansion that soon is
felt all over the land.
