Convention Delegates sit on
Floor to Be More

BY SAM KNOTT
United Press staff Correspondent

CHICAGO, Aug. 14.-Delegates to
the Hoboes of America convention
worked" today on a relief code
promising support for President
Rosevelt's NRA program, and asking
government intervention to put
more rods under railroad cars.
Chairs stood in the hall where the
hoboes were assembled in their four
day convention, but few delegates
used them. They preferred to make
themselves at home" by sitting on
the floor
Several delegates indicated they
desired TO offer amendments to the
original code, but when King" Joe
Davis reminded them they must
stand when addressing the chair
man. they decided their leader
probably knew best. anyway.
we give support to the Presi-
dents program" declared Davis,
land We'll get benefits therefrom,
for when you cast crumbs upon the
waters you get back chicken
sandwich.
Stresses Rail Problem
The proposed code stresses the
railroad problem because, as Davis
pointed out. hoboes are in such a
good position to know all about this
particular mode of transportation.
The railroads are not what they
once were" stated Davis. THE
places beneath the cars where once
a DO might ride comfortably on sew
eral rods have been changed. There
is but one rod now, and the blind
baggage bumpers have sharp thorns
on them
The code also mentioned the
hitch-hiking problem.
There have been laws passed to
keep an itinerant workman from
signally passerby on the highway
to tell him in which direction he is
going it stated. but we are not
men to complain and we look for
ward to aviation as a means of
travel"
Other sections of the code con-
cerned the NRA work program.
Hands Off Jobs
once the NRA emblem is hung
in the national headquarters at
Cincinnati. attesting to the allie
glance of hoboes. no member of our
vast organization will violate the
provisions Of the codes" explained
Davis

But in his quest for advertising,

in the picture. runs into a lady
called Adrienne Deanne. whose ad-

which form an interesting if not a
logical ending for the picture.
was particularly impressed with
the work of Elizabeth Allan in the
picture. She is a comparative new
conner to the screen, but her work
shows the touch of a real up-and-
coming actress. She has very
sympathetic role. but she handles it
with plenty of reserve.
Dix is his old comical, tragical
self. He is a combination of good
looks and acting qualities, having
none too much of either.

COLDSTEIN FIRM
TO OPEN STORE
AT old STAND
Business Will Be Started
Thursday: New Stocks
of Merchandise.

Announcement was made today
by Albert S Goldstein. president OF
the former Goldstein Brothers, Inc,
that a new store. 10 be known as
the New Goidstein Brothers de-
partment store. will open Thurs
day at washington and Delaware
streets. the former location Of the
company.
owners OF the original Goldstein
business will be IN charge of the
new firm. and nearly all employees
of the old store will be called back
for the new venture.
The many departments Of the
former Goldstein store will be re-
opened with new merchandise. Sew
eral entirely new departments will
be ready for the opening. with 9TH
ers TO follow as rapidly as new
equipment can be procured.
A feature OF the new store will be
a complete Kroger unit. with full
stocks OF groceries. meats and bak-
cry goods. This department will be
located on the main floor and will
occupy approximately 5000 square
feet Ct space.
A new restaurant, lunch counter,
and soda fountain will be located
also on the main floor.
Goldstein states that the new
store will provide employment for
200 people and that this number
will be increased materially with
the opening of the fall season.
He declared today that the BUSH
ness trend now is headed upward
definitely, that the country is on
the way to better times. and that
it is the duty Of every employer to
support whole -heartedly the Presi-
dent of the United States in his re-
covery program.
The New Goldstein Brothers will
observe the code. both in letter and
in spirit, he said.

nothing, or for any less than any
other man"
A delegate jabbed his elbow into
Davis ribs at that point and Davis
added:
Except, of course, in emergencies.
In such case a hobo might chop a
few sticks of wood for something to
eat, but not until he has first as
certained that he does not intrude
upon the job of a union axman.
we will not contribute to unem-
ployment by doing more than one
days work in one day. for a hobo
does not live to work, but rather he
works only to live"
Upon that statement three dele
gates shouted Amen" and 1913
others got off the floor long enough
to take standing vote approving
Davis statements.

THREE AUTO BANDITS
Melted LONG TERMS
Swear Sentences Given
Trio by BaItzeII.

Three automobile bandits were
sentenced to five years each in At
lanta penitentiary by Federal Judge
Baltzell Saturday.
Frank Benefiel of Indianapolis,
Hanson L. Senteny, Decatur, o., and
George Coleman, Pittsburgh, Pa,
were convicted Of stealing auto
mobiles in Oklahoma and Kentucky
and bringing them to Indiana.
The men recently completed
sentences Of two years at the state
reformatory on the charge of con-
spiracy to commit felony.
After sticking up Webb Duane in
Louisville, and taking his auto from
him, the men robbed several filling
stations in Louisville and fled to

was revealed.
James Hubert, Dearborn county
sheriff, was disarmed in an attempt
to capture them and Bud White, a

revue. Easter and Hazelton are
splendid dancers.
There are two big numbers-the

Studies Lightest Atom

DR.. cambridge is using the mass
spectograph to study the atom OF
hydrogen.
The hydrogen atom is the lightest
atom known. Its nucleus consists
of a single positive electron or pro-
ton. One negative electron revolveS
around It.
Within the last year. however,
much 10 the surprise. of the scien-
tific world. it was demonstrated
that there is an isotope of hydrogen.
It is believed that the isotope has a
nucleus which consists Of two pro-
tons and one electron and that one
electron revolves around this
nucleus.
Now ii is particularly important
that scientists learn the exact mass
of the hydrogen isotope. And. it is
believed that the mass-spectograph
possesses the precision which is nee
eSsary to ascertain II.
According 10 present theories. the
nucleus Of the isotope. consisting,
as it does. of two protons and one
electron, is expected to weigh slight
" less than two protons and one
electron. This is because of the So
called packing effect"
On the basis of classical mechan-
les. there is no reason why pack
ing the protons and electrons into
the small space which they occupy
in the nucleus of the atom should
cause Their weight 10 change. But
on the basis of the newer theories
which include relatively and guam
tum mechanics. such a loss in
weight is 10 be expected.
The measurements with the mass
spectograph. therefore. will con-
stitute an important check upon
modern theories.

ATOM WEIGHT
Gigantic Magnet Part of
Machine Built by Or.
cambridge.
BY DAVID DIETZ
SerippS- Howard Science Editor

A machine that weighs two tons
itself, but is so delicate that IL will
weigh objects whose weight is less
than a trillionth Of an ounce, has
been built by DR.. Kenneth T. Balm
bridge OF the Bartol Reserve Foun-
dation in Swathmore. Pa.
Only atoms are OF the order Of
weight indicated and that is the
purpose Of the machine-to weigh
individual atoms.
In fact. the machine is so deli
cate that some Of the heavier at
oms. such as the atom Of gold. for
example. are almost too heavy for
the apparatus.
The device is known as the mass
spectograph, and there is only one
other in the world with the pre-
cision possessed by that which Dr.
cambridge has built. The other
machine is that Of Sir F. w Aston
Of Great Britain. who was knighted
for the important discoveries which
he made with IT,

full tool Of utmost importance at
the command of American science.
The mass-spectograph might be
thought Of as a sort of cannon in
which the atom which is to be
weighed is the proiectile. The tar
get is a Photographic plate.
Powerful Magnet a Part
Most of the weight Of the device
is in a gigantic electromagnetic,
one Of the largest magnets in the
United States II has a special steel
frame weighing $500 pounds. The
winding consists Of 1900 turns of
heavy wire, containing $50 pounds of
copper When the current is turned
on. the magnet gets so hot that it
must be cooled by a water system.
The operation Of the mass-spec-
trograph is as follows:
The atoms which are to be
weighed are discharged by cleo
trical means in a vacuum tube. They
move through the tube and strike
the Photographic plate. AS they pass
through the tube. they enter the
magnetic field Of the huge magnet
described.
This magnet has the effect of de-
flecting the atoms. But the amount
of DETECTION depends upon the
weight Of the atom. Therefore. the
lighter the atom, the more it will
be DETECTED

Spots Basis for Figures

When the atoms strike the photo
graphic plate, they leave a dark spot
upon it, all the experimenter has
TO do then is TO measure the posi-
ton of the mark. and from it he
can calculate the weight of the
atom.
The mass-spectrograph is particu-
larly valuable in the study of iso-
TOPICS. 1t was discovered some years
ago that many chemical elements
consisted of variety of atoms.
All the atoms behaved exactly
alike and so could not be distin-
guished by ordinary chemical means.
But the atoms possessed different
weights. These similar atoms of diff
ferent weights are called isotopeS.
The maSs-spectograph at once
separates isotopes easily, the lighter
ones striking the Photographic plate
at one point. and the heavier ones
at another.
