MOTOR IS RUN
BY RAYS OF SUN
4O00-Year Search For Way of
Putting Sun Into Use as
Power Seems Solved
DEMONSTRATED IN N. Y.

A new kind of sunlight motor
was demonstrated to the New
York Electrical Society last week
that may be the beginning of util-
izing the sun for power. The
thing is as simple as putting four
fried eggs on a dinner plate-ac-
tually a new kind of metallic scien-
tific egg-with a wire around them
attached to a motor. Hold the
plate under light, and the motor
runs. The discovery changes light
directly into electric current-into
ordinary ID. C."-and seems to be
the break of science into a new and
perhaps practical field at the end
of it's 4O0O-year-long search for
ways to put the power in sunshine
to work. The motor was run be-
fore large audience by Ellis l..
Manning, physicist, of the General
Electric Company. This was said
to be its first public showing. Man.
ning's scientific "eggs" were four
black discs of iron, each about
twice the size of a silver dollar
Each was coated with an egg-shell
thin layer of selenium, ight-sen-
sitive metal. Over the seleniu N
was platinum film so thin it was
semi-transparent. This plate he
set about IL inches below an ordl-
nary 50-watt house light. Instant
ly the motor hooked to it whirled
"a motor the size of little fing.
er, but developing about one-fif.
tieth as much power as the motor
that runs an electric clock. These
black metal discs are a new type
of cell. Their secret seems to lie
largely in the platinum coating.
Although the platinum film cuts
off much Of the light from the sell
enium, it multiplies the electric
power by 20 to so times. No one
knows the reason definitely.

PROCESS TAX
BRINGS S613,231
But Only S10S.09 is Paid to
Delaware Farmers in
Rental, Benefit, &c.
DOES TT REALLY PAY

What purports to be as COM
plete picture as it is possible to
present showing the operation of
agricultural adjustment process
ing taxes and benefit payments
covering the whole period of II
months was made public Thursday
by the Department of Agriculture.
There are many pages of text of
an explanatory nature, and tabular
figures by States. Up to October
81, a total of S55O,OS1, ,419 had been
collected in processing and relat-
ed taxes, and S421 ,697 ,389 had been
paid out in rental and benefit pay
ments. In Delaware, processing
collections were S613 ,231, and ben
eft payments in the State were
S108,092 Nearly six times as
much money was collected in the
State as was paid out to farmers
who qualified for benefit checks.
Processing tax collections in Della
ware fall under the following
heads: Wheat, S1O4, ,303; cotton,
S167,O39;. tobacco, S74, 1856; field
corn, S5929; hogs, S24O,316; paper
and jute, $3.50, and sugar, ST.
166. Total, S613,231. Rental and
benefit payments in the State
were: On account of wheat, S92,-
1858; corn-hogs, S15,223. Total,
S1O8,092. The seven "basic" agri-
cultural commodities are wheat,
bearing a processing tax of 80
cents a bushel; cotton, AZ cents
per pound; corn, 5 cents per BUSH
ell; hogs, S2.25 per hundredweight,
tobacco, downward from 81 cents
per pound; sugar. IL cent per
pound raw, and peanuts, 1 cent a
pound. Compensatory taxes are
levied on paper and jute in certain
products found to be in competi-
tion with cotton. Foreseeing that
public discussion would revolve
around the subject of discrepancies
between figures showing collections,
and disbursements, the AAA state
ment elaborates to the extent of
several pages in order to drive
home the point that there is no re-
lationship between collections in a
State and payments therein.

HIGHWAY WORK
EMPLOYS MANY
Report For Year Shows That
Large Number Have Been
Given Work
WAS GREAT RELIEF AID

The State Highway Department
did much to aid in the unemploy-
ment situation of last year as
shown by a report just made pub
lie by w. w. Mack, Chief Engineer
in which he discloses that the de-
partment provided 2,647,73O man
hours of employment. The period
covered by the calculation is from
November, 1888, to November,
1884, and is exclusive of county
road work under the direction of
the Levy Court which also would
account for a large amount of
work furnished the unemployed
during that time Eliminated from
the total are approximately 1,750,-
600 man hours given workers in
the industries producing and trans
porting materials. Adding this
contributing labor increases the
man hours to the grand total of
4,397,730. The wage distribution
number through the plan of rotat-
ing shifts upon operations carried
out throughout the State. The rule
was observed, as well, of allocating
the money to all parts of the State,
the percentage Of unemployment
being the main factor in determin-
ing the share that should go to
the various areas. Local residents
were favored on all lists so that
most of the money paid for this la
Dor remained in the districts where
it was done so that business men
in that area were also assisted.
Not only was unemployment re-
lieved, good and permanent roads
erected, but local business was
stimulated. This program would
have been impossible had it not
been for the generous appropria-
tions from the Federal Govern
ment for highway work. In the
years period the work financed
with Federal funds amounted to
1 ,444,578 hours, the large remand
er coming directly from State
funds so that the man who is pay
ing a gasoline tax was not only
helping his more unfortunate
neighbor by providing work for
him. In addition, the maintenance
and equipment permanent divisions
of the Highway Department also
accounted for S540,69O man hours
during the year.

NEW YORK, November l0.-Bonds
were active and fairly steady in today's
brief bond market session.
Transfers totaled S5,918,O00, par
value, against s4,6l2 900 last Satur-
day. The Standard Statistics Co.
average for 60 domestic corporate is
sues edged up one-tenth of a point
to 846. On the week this composite
showed q net gain of six-tenths of a
point.
Because of the double holiday-the
market will be closed Monday for
Armistice day-most traders and in
vestors were not inclined to reach for
their favorites and there was some
scattered profit taking in evidence.
Small advances, however, were in the
majority.
Dealers were encouraged by the
fact that United States Government
securities displayed rallying tenden-
cies. Home owners loans and Federal
farm mortgage bonds were up 4 32nds
to IL 32nds of a point and some Of
the Treasures improved /32nd to
3 32nds. The activity in the Federal
group was not pronounced, the turn
over amounting to only $4,000.
