TAX GROUP To
APPEAL BUDGET
TO STATE BODY
Gives Additional Support to
Real Estate Board
Plea.

Appeal to the state tax board for
reduction in city, school and county
tax rates to conform to the $3.50
law will be taken by the Indiana
Taxpayers Association, H
Miesse, secretary, announced today
The pending association action
lends additional support to the ap-
peal planned by the property own
ers' division of the indianapolis
Real Estate Board, which several
DAYS ago declared a protest would
be made.
Both organizations prepared in
formation for consideration Of Off
Gals and members of the county
tax adjustment board, but the COM
bined rates we're lowered only 2
cents, when $4,000 was cut from
the county old-age pension fund.
Final date for the state board APP
peal is Saturday, but it is expected
that the protest will be made by the
middle of this week.
The state board, under the
statutes establishing the $3.50 maxi
mum rate and the county adjust
ment boards, is the final resort on
levy disputes, but remedy at law may
be sought from the courts.
If the appeal to the state board is
in vain, litigation will be started at
once to prevent collection of any
levy higher than $3.50, real estate
board officials announced several
weeks ago.

SCIENTIFIC BOARD
AIDS NRA PROGRAM
Six Advisory Committees
Report on Policies.

By Science Service
WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt's science advisory
board now has six committees of
experts at work on questions re-
ferred to it by governmental agen-
cies, President Karl T. Compton,
board chairman, has announced.
AS the actual problems upon
which cabinet officers and other
officials have sought the advice of
this board are pressing and of a
confidential nature, DR.. Compton
did not discuss details.
Three general types of problems
are under consideration" DR..
Compton said The first are CUES
lions of proper organization, or
functioning, or program of the sci
entific and technical services of the
government on which the advice of
the board has been specifically re-
quested.
The second are similar matters
which have come before the board
and which need attention in order
that essential technical services
shall not be impaired by economy
or unwise projects be supported, as
may happen easily when the deter
mining issues are obscure or highly
technical.
THE third are basic considera-
tons of the more permanent policy
of the government toward scientific
work"

CALLED MADE
WORLDS FIRST
Thermometer
instrument First Made in
1892 Functioned as
Those of Today.
BY DAVID DIETZ
scripps Howard Science Editor

Almost every one knows that
Calico was the first 10 turn a
telescope upon the heavens. But
probably only very few people
realize that we owe our methods of
measuring heat as well as our
methods Of studying stars to that
scientific pioneer. Calico made the
first thermometer.
The story is told by DR.. Morton
Mott-Smith, former professor of
physics at George Washington uni
versity, in his excellent little book,
Heat and It's Workings published
by Appleton.
When Calico made his first Their
mometer, there was no barometer IN
existence. That instrument was in
vented later by Torricelli, a pupil
of Galileo's.
And so, without knowing 1t, Cali
leo built an instrument which func-
toned primarily as a thermometer
and secondarily as a barometer, and
in consequence was by so much in
accurate as a thermometer. But
it was beginning.
Heat Applied to Bulb
II was in 1892 that Calico built
the worlds first thermometer. 1t
was not until 1909 that he turned
his first little telescope upon the
stars. The first thermometer was
an air thermometer. Calico knew
from various experiments, that air
expands a considerable amount
when heated.
His thermometer consisted of a
large glass sphere or bulb having a
long narrow stem attached TO it.
The sphere was supported so that
the steam extended below and
dipped into an open dish of mer-
curry.
Before dipping the stem into the
mercury, Calico heated the bulb
slightly. This caused the air within
it to expand a little The stem was
then inserted into the mercury
When the bulb cooled off, the air
within it contracted. This caused
some of the mercury to be sucked
up in the stem.
Recording Is Reversed
The thermometer now was ready
for use. AS the temperature rose
and fell, the height of the mercury
column changed. But it is interest
ing to notice that this thermometer
functioned in just the opposite
fashion to the present day one.
When the day grew hotter, the
air in the bulb expanded and drove
the mercury down. When cool
weather came along, the mercury
rose. DR.. Mott-Smith points out
that if this type of thermometer
had persisted, our ideas of high and
low as applied to thermometers might
have been just the opposite to what
they are today.
Calico had no scale on his Their
mometer. But they were added by
subsequent exDerimenterS

CLOSED
TO PRIVATE POWER
Valley Authority Rules 1t Will
Be Charged With Develop
ment on River.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
There will be no private development
of power on the Tennessee River or its
tributaries, under policy laid down by
the Tennessee Valley Authority.
Returning from a visit to the valley
area yesterday. David E. Lillienthal. a
member of the authority, said the
boards view is that it alone should be
charged with all development on the
river and its tributaries.
Lillienthal conferred with Frank B.
McNinch, chairman of the Federal
Power Commission regarding the au-
thorityS future, policy.
The question of whether the author
ity was to have exclusive right to de-
velopment on the river or whether pri-
vate interests could share in it was
brought to the fore by the pending ex-
piration of a preliminary permit from
the Power Commission held by South
development at Aurora, Tenn.
The preliminary permit expires the
middle of this month, and w. G.
Waldo president of the corporation, had
asked that either the preliminary per-
NIT be extended or a permanent one
granted.
The position to be taken by the Power
Commission was unknown, but officials
speculated that, in view of the policy
pronounced by Lilienthal, the Power
Commission would hesitate to renew
the permit or grant permanent one.
