and amplitude indicates approaching
stormy weather and low barometric
readings.
Because the seismograph Is made
up of two sets Of components, one to
record earth movements north and
south OF the instrument and the other
to register quakes east and west Of
the machine, the direction in which
the weather change originates also is
indicated.
If an area of high pressure is mov-
ing from west TO east, the east-weSt
components alone register the change.
If the high pressure area is north OF
the observatory, only the north-south
section of the seismograph shows it.
THE observations" said DR.. New
lin, "have definitely established that
a relationship between the pulsationS
that occur on the seismograph in the

on the existing barometric conditions

BONES OF SACRIFICED

ALGIERS, Algeria, July 28.-
Burned bones of children, believed
sacrificed for the Goddess Tarit,
virgin queen of the moon and heavens,
have been unearthed at Carthage by
Father Lapeyre, director Of the
Lavigerie Museum.
Father Lapeyre announced he found
the bones in vases during excavations
on the site Of the Temple Of Tanit in
the ancient city.
He said some OF the bones were of
babies a few months old. One group
belonged to a child Of IL. Other urns,
he said, contained the burned bones
of animals.
The latter caused archeologists at
tached to Father Lepeyre's expedition
to suggest that animals may have
been given to priests as ransom for
children designated for sacrifcial Of

have since he entered the national
political ring 18 years ago.
In times past, Blantons method was
to 60 after opponents hammer and
tongs, and the echoes of charges and
counter charges hurled in a Blanton
campaign frequently resounded
throughout this expansive State Blan-
ton apparently got the best of the
arguments because he always got the
majority vote.
Makes Early Fight.
This year it didn't sound like q
Blanton campaign. Blanton returned
from Washington only four weeks ago
to find that two opponents, Carl Ham
lin. a District judge, and Oscar
Chastain. a member of the Texas
Legislature, had been talking to the
voters for months.
But "Top" raised no fury. Instead.
he got into his sound-equipped Ford,
started touring the II county dis
tricts and made speech in every
major town, visiting four and five a
day. The unique part Of the cam
paign was that Tom restricted his re-
marks to what he called an account
ing of his stewardship" and never
did he mention an opponent by name.
He talked of his part in the new deal
legislation and let personal harangu-
ing go by the boards.
One New Hazard.
He faced one new hazard. Last
year Texas was redistricted and Blan-
ton lost several counties that had
been his staunch supporters: he
gained three new ones whose senti-
merlt had not been sounded out. Still,
it wasn't the first time Blanton had
campaigned q new district. He went
from a. district judgeship into the
congressional contests in 1916 and was
named representative from Texas,
famed Jumbo" district which covered
territory as large as many States. This
district later was sliced up. but Blan-
ton kept running and winning.
Early returns tonight gave Blanton
a safe margin over his opponents. Un-
less he has majority OF all votes, he
must contest with the second high
man in run-of primary August 25.
