The nations Of the world failed to
get together at the London confer

national affair just the same. For
proof consider the electric light
bulb. perhaps you are reading this
article by the light of one now
Seventeen nations Of the world
and twenty-four states in the United
states contributed the material

Some OF the raw materials given
In the foregoing list are found

ton, the manufacture Of the incan-
descent light requires supplies of
zinc, copper. wool. resin. alcohol
iron, castor oil. marble dust cotton
and silver. These are obtained with

The processes involved in the
manufacture OF the lamp are almost
as variegated as the materials which
go into the lamp.
Liquid Air Is Used
one OF the processes requires one

utilized" Mr.. Broadbent says.
Liquid air one of the coolest
things known, is essential in the
manufacturing process. Yet in the

tungsten filament operates at a tenn
perature equal to one-half that of
the suns surface.

R.y Science SerUtce
WASHINGTON, Dec. I8.-One OF
the most hotly contested points
along the whole battle line over the
new pure food and drug bill to be
presented before the coming con-
gress will be the matter Of advertis-
ing. Advertising does not figure in
the present food and drug law, be-
cause in 1906, when it was enacted
advertising was not such a force
in national buying and selling as it
is now.
The present law merely prohibits
untruth in labelling, so that an un-
scrupulous manufacturer or dealer
can tell all the lies he thinks will
bring him a profit so long as he
does not print any of them on the
package.
The new law strikes directly at
this weakness, and it takes in
plenty of territory while it is at it.
An advertisement of a food, drug or
cosmetic shall be deemed to be
false, it states, eff in any particular
it is untrue, or by ambiguity or in
ference creates a misleading impress
sion regarding such food, drug or
cosmetic"
1t is that latter clause, the am
biguity or inference one, that is
raising a particular howl from the
ranks OF a certain part Of the pro-
t1T-ietoru Yoadioipa +roda
Trying to Spread Panic
Manufacturers of products which
the present law can not prove to
be fraudulently presented are ex-
pert in oblique statements, that Gre
ate impressions without making
straight assertions, and they are
rightly afraid of what may happen
to them if they are suddenly con-
fronted with the necessity to tell
the truth, the whole truth, and
nothing but the truth.
Some of their agents have tried
to spread their panic to the news
papers and magazines by the claim
that editors can be fined and jailed
for printing false or misleading ad-
vertising, of whose nature they could
Of course hardly be expected to be
completely informed.
The sponsors of the Copeland bill
disclaim any intention to hold either
newspapers or advertising agencies
responsible for the factual content
of the advertising they print or pre-
pare for printing and they declare
their intention to exclude them spe-
cifically from such responsibility.
But, by the same token, they do
intend to "crack down" on the Ana
MAS fringe among food, drug and
cosmetic manufacturers, whose ir-
responsible claims work harm alike
to advertising media, legitimate
businesses and the long suffering
consuming public.
Radios the Problem
One new and important adver-
tising medium will doubtless show
the effects of this new demand for
accuracy in advertising to a much
greater extent than newspapers and
magazines. That is the radio. Aft
er all, editors have been in the game
long enough to know an advertising
Ethiopian in the woodpile when they
see one, and most of them want
nothing to do with advertising that
will defraud or injure their sub
ScriberS.
But radio Is younger business
and apparently either less worldly
wise or less discriminating than
newspapering, for the stuff that gets
into some radio advertising "spiels''
make newspaper men (and the gen.
eral public, too) hold their noses.
1t will be most interesting to
watch the revision of radio plug
ging' if and when the Copeland bill
is enacted into law.

In America we look on the new regime

as revolution. the word does not regis

the Nazis in 1880 when they gained a
surprising number of seats in the
Reichstag election. Then We discovered
that there was strong Nationalist So
cialist German Workers party, known
by the initials of the German words as
the N. S. D. A. P. or with the first
word of the name abbreviated to Nazi
pronounced "NatZee'D.
Beaten Badly in 1882.
Then there were Kaleidoscope
changes. distractions to legislation in
the Reichstag and government by presi-
dental decree under an emergency
clause in the Weimer constitution of
the German Republic. The Catholic
Centrist chancellor, Heinrich Bruening
apparently was in full control with the
complete backing of President Won Hin
denburg.
BY 1882 we began hearing Of an Aus
trian. Adolf Hitler, who had gone to
Germany as young man before the
war, and had emerged as the leader Of
the NaziS. He was reputed to be a
flrebrand. an eloquent speaker, but with
no ability in practical affairs. He had
the temerity to run for President
against Hindenburg in 1882 and was
beaten by 5000 600 votes
Momentous events followed in quick
succession. Bruening lost the Presi
dents confidence and was supplanted
by Won Papen and the cabinet of
barons," which, in turn. gave way to
the chancellorship of Won Schleicher
the reputed brains and strong man of
the group. These were mere changes
in government and things went on in
Germany about as before
