u. S. Chemist Isolates
Rarest Element

Curie, codiscoverer Of radium, was
greatly interested in the therapeu.
tic properties of actinium, DR.. Won
Crosse said.
Protactinium is obtained from
the residue of ore from which
radium already has been extracted.
DR.. Won Crosse told Of beginning
his work Of isolating the element
three years ago, when he imported
three tons Of radium residues from
the oldest radium factory in the
world, located at Joachimstahl,
Czechoslovakia.
Used Ton Of ReSidues
From one ton of these residues,
DR.. Won Crosse said he had iso-
lated one-tenth Of gram of pro-
tactinium in its pure form, at q
cost of approximately $4,000.
His next task, DR.. Won Crosse
said, is to determine to what me-
dicinal and other uses the metal
may be applied. He plans to d.
rect his future efforts to that
field.
The great strides made by chem
iStry throughout the depression
were outlined by Prof. Robert E.
Swain, Of Stanford University.
The chemists today broke up
into smaller groups for division
meetings.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Sept. IL
U.N.SO-Mysteries of the rarest
chemical known today stood ex-
posed to the world Of science, as
the 1000 delegates to the eighty
eighth meeting of the American
Chemical Society turned their at
tention to the numerous group
meetings on the convention pro-
gram.
Isolation for the first time Of a
rare metal, the radioactive ele-
ment protactinium. was revealed
to the society by DR.. AriStid Won
Crosse, 29-year old University Of
Chicago chemist.
Protactinium, or Element 81,
is rarer even than radium, and
is worth more than 100000 an
ounce. It gives off the same
rays, in reduced volume, as ra-
dunn, DR.. Won Crosse said.
First Isolation in u. S.
The actual isolation, accom-
plished only a week ago at the
University Of Chicago on Labor
Day, marks the first time in the
United States that an element
has been isolated, although new
elements have been discovered in
this country.
The young chemist exhibited a
tiny sample of the clement
sample so tiny, in fact, that it was
visible only with the aid of a mag
nifying glass. 1t was crystalized
on a fine piece of tungsten wire,
which was sealed on to a small
piece Of glass.
AS in the case of radlum, whose
value is in its products of disinte-
grafton, chief interest of science
is in the similar products of pro-
tactinium. The first product Of
the disintegration of element 81,
DR.. Won Crosse said, is actinium,
which has not yet been prepared
in pure form.
One thousand times rarer than
protactinium, actinium is highly
radioactive. The late Madame

NRA SHIFTS DUE
To FEAR Of

as the inevitable congressional in
Vestigation.
This same fear that MIRA Off.
Gals are supposed to have is
bringing about a new survey Of
the costs Of code authorities, it is
declared.
Fast Spending Hit
The free and easy spending
which marked the budgets Of the
early code authorities has been
meeting recently with severe con-
domination of Washington Off
Gals.
They are scanning every item in
the budgets and are questioning
every proposed expenditure. Par
ticularly are the Washington Off
Gals considering the salary items
in the budgets.
The concern over salaries is
said to be due to the widespread
feeling that soft and highly lucra
tive jobs we're being created by
the code authorities and that bust
ness men were being taxed ex-
brilliantly to meet them.
Although it is not discussed so
freely here, the local code authori-
ties are said to have come to the
conclusion that it is unwise now
to try to lure away from the Ma
tional Recovery Administration
headquarters the men who helped
to write the codes and utilize their
services now in code administra'
ton.
Practice Under Fire
Several notable instances OF
this Turing have taken place and,
according to those who forecast a
congressional investigation, any
further employment Of ex'NRA
officials by the code authorities
will merely intensity the fire to
which the whole proposition is eX-
pected to be subjected.
Another aspect of NRA which
is worrying New York business
men is the rapid shift in person
mel in Washington headquarters.
They declare that most of the
men who were familiar with bust,
ness and who aided in writing
the codes have departed from
MIRA, leaving the matter of ad'
ministration to men less familiar
with the problems of business.
This fact, it is said, is making
it steadily more difficult for the
business men who are trying 10
comply with all the complex in
structions issued by the Washing
ton offices.

The Old and the New

Those elaborate coronation cere-
monies which made Mr.. Henry Pu vi
the Emperor Kang Teh seem to have
been an odd mixture Of the very old
and the up-to-date.
All the time -honored formulate of
the incredibly ancient oriental dynas-
ty were used; there were sacrifices at
the altar, ceremonial robes like those
worn by Genghis Khan, and 50 on.
But there also were smart japanese
in ultra-modern military display;
there we're foreign correspondents
wearing the evening dress OF the
west; and when the ceremonies end
ed, the new emperor got into an up
to-date bullet-proof auto to 60 back
to his palace.
All this IS more or less symbolic
Of the anachronistic empire OF Man
chukuo itself. It. too, Is an odd mix
ture Of the old and the new.
Whatever else one may think OF it.
1t IS hard to see in 1t the vitality, the
responsiveness to pressing need,
that can make 1t truly enduring.

whether the medical society pays me
a commission or something.
It is my sincere belief that II all

other artificial aids to DELEGATION
were made inaccessible or even as diff
ficult to get as morphine or cocaine
is. the millions who now weakly cul-
tivate the constipation habit would
get rid of the habit within few
weeks.
It is a curious fact but you cannot
find in all medical literature single
authentic report of any serious results
from deprivation Of physics in any
circumstances. That is not because
such deprivation never occurs, but be-
cause there are no serious results
when it does occur. And even the
temporary anxiety or actual discom-
fort victim Of the habit suffers
when making his fight to break the
habit is rarely Of more than q weeks

hardest. Many recover in less time.
