X-Ray Now Aid
To Industries

CLEVELAND, Feb. 4.-(UP).
The X-Ray, now of immense value
to medical science, may assume al
most equal Importance in the steel
industry, according to research
experts here.
1t is now being used to detect
defects in metal castings, welded
high pressure boilers and airplane
parts.
John A. Victoreen, radio inven-
tor, who inaugurated the new
service here, pointed out that the
X-Ray offers the only means of
compliance with government safe
ty specifications requiring strict
examination of all welded high
pressure boilers and certain air.
craft parts.
"There are a million things you
have to look for in foundry prac-
"You've got to expect blow holes,
cracks, shrinkage that causes por-
osity in the castings, and then find
a way to eliminate them"
He said that his laboratories
were just scratching the surface
of research possibilities in indus
try and pointed out the X-Ray's
ability to detect the effects of
rolling on the crystalline structure
of metals, the internal changes in
structures during the cooling pro-
cess, and many other feats.
With the new instrument, pic
lures may be taken through any
assembled machinery units, and if
the thickness is too great for pen
etration by X-Ray apparatus, pic
lures may be had by overnight
exposure of the object to radium
enlanation.

WHEAT CONFEREES
SEEK SOLUTION TO
TARIFF ARGUMENT
Await Return of French Repre-.

Paris Conference

London, Aug. 24.-(P)-Paul Devi-
nant, French representative at the in
ternational wheat conference, left for
Paris Thursday to consult his govern
inent concerning the controversy over
wheat prices and tariffs.
The conference held its session
without him and adjourned until to-
morrow morning with no agreement
effected to cope with the wheat glut
by an international agreement to re-
duce production and stimulate con-
sumption.
His departure took on added sig
nificance from the fact that in con-
ference circles it was believed other
importing nations probably would abide

The conference is attempting to es-
tabish just how high the price of
wheat must 60 before importing coun-
tries will undertake to reduce their

tour months at 11.47 pre-war gold
French francs per puintal. CThis is
the equivalent Of go gold U. s. cents
per bushel, or 81 U. S. cents at the

The importers are asking between
1875 and Is francs (between 66 and 50
gold U. S. cents per bushel, or between
80 and IS U. S. cents at present ex-
change).
Despite the difference of opinion,
predictions Of success in the effort to
achieve an international agreement

Advertising Control; 9th
or Opposes Them

Washington, Aug. 24.-(F- Conflict
between the big New York depart
ment stores arose in the recovery ad-
ministration's hearings on the retail
code today, with one group demanding
price and advertising regulations and
another opposing it.
Percy s. Straus, president of R. H.
Macy and company, asailed a pro-
posal to write into the code pro-
vision to regulate prices.
B. H. Namm. representing IA other
large New York department stores, de-
manded the price-fixing clause as a
means of preventing stores from ad-
vertising that they generally under
sold competitors.
Straus said that IF retail trade
groups can fix prices at net invoice
cost plus 10 per cent, then they may
logically raise the. margin to Is per
cent, rs per cent, or even higher per-
centages."
THE adoption of such a principle"
he said, will not increase consump-
ton nor build purchasing power; it
will choke the free flow Of commerce
and shrink volume. Price fixing agree
ments between manufacturers and
retailers have heretofore been held IL
legal"
Must Have Security
