Puzzle Of Sleep Still
Unsolved by Scientists

Although almost q third of q per.
sons Life 10 spent In sleep, the prob.
lem Of how sleep comes about Is still
q mystery. observes a writer In the
Montreal Herald. It had been sup
posed that during activity. fatigue
substances accumulated In the blood
and exerted narcotic action on the
brain, periodically inducing sleep
during which they were excreted. In
vestigation shows that an after.
noon nap may come when there ID
little fatigue. that extreme nervous
fatigue often leads to sleeplessness,
and that normal sleep, unlike either
narcosis. Is easily interrupted by
noise or other disturbances. An
other theory has been that during
sleep the conduction pathways In
the nervous system are broken by
the retraction OF small contact
points between the neurones, which
are the conducting units composing
the nervous system. II this actu-
ally occurred. It would stop all
nervous activity just as effectively
az pulling the plugs from a switch.
board would stop telephone commu.
nication, but there Is no evidence
to support the theory. Sleeping sick.
ness has been found to be accom-
panied by damage to a point in the
midbrain near its junction with the
forebrain. and this region has been
found to have an important rela-
ton to the alienation Of sleep and
wakefulness.

Light From Depth Of SPACE

Light from the depths Of the
heavens, its source 80 far away that
Il takes more than seven million
years for It to travel to earth, ID
Just the same kind and travels at
exactly the same rate as that shin

Mt. Wilson observatory. He feared
that the light from these unbeliev.
ably distant spaces might not be
the same as that from our nearer
neighbors, that It might become
"tired" on It's long journey and not
travel 30 speedily. He measured Its
speed. however. and found It to
tally exactly with measurements
conducted on earth. Thus, these

jFerrel's Law

William Ferrel was an American
meteorologist. The law for which
he Is best known Is: "If a body
moves In any direction on the
earth's surface, there is a DETECTING
force arising from the earth's rota-
tion which tends to defect It to the
right in the Northern hemisphere,
and to the left in the Southern hemi-
sphere" This explains the defec-
ton Of winds.

with the palm leaf which was used
for changing the air. War fans,
ceremonious fans. practical fans
and, Of course, fans for scoquetry,

fan from the feathers Of his wings.
In Spain. by the Eighteenth century.
there was a complete fan language
spoken with the beguiling gestures
Of the fan wielder.

GOVERNMENT RUSHES
TO PUT MAIL BACK
i'm PRIVATE PLANES
Call Inviting New Bids and Not
Barring Old Contractors
Is Expected

Washington, March 28.-(PeThe
post office department will dump its
airmail pouches back into private
planes with all possible dispatch.
A call was expected Wednesday in
viting new temporary bids by aviation
lines, but informing the holders Of
cancelled airmail contracts that they
viii have to reorganize to be eligible.
Several officials are known to ex-
rect objections to this procedure
from erstwhile contract holders. About
q dozen such concerns already have
filed petitions for hearings on the
fraud charges which prefaced the
wholesale cancellation.
Colonel Eddie Rickenbacker, an
aviation official, said soon after Pres
ident Roosevelt and his aides COM
pleted arrangements Tuesday for re-
turning the airmail to private hands
that the rebidding proposal was q
SHAM"
Postal officials conceded that few
concerns except those which carried
the mails before the cancellation
would be qualified to take up the task
in the immediate future.
Need No Legislation
Attorney General Cummings. fol-
lowing Tuesdays White House confer
ence at which the return to private
lines was arranged, told newsmen it
was felt the administration had SUI
ficient legal backing for asking new
bids without waiting for the enact
ment Of the new legislation.
Postmaster General Farley said
Tuesday temporary contracts with
commercial lines will be let within the
next three weeks but that no airmail
company whose contract was annul-
led for collision and fraud may bid
for a temporary contract.
He also barred any company which
has as any Of its officers or direc-
tors any person who has entered into
or proposed to enter into any COM
bination to prevent the making Of
competitive bids for carrying the mail,
or has made any agreement or given

for any other mail contract"
Advertisements for bids will be sent
cut within the next day or two. The
bids are to be submitted within Is
days. Successful bidders will be re-.
quired to start operation within 80
days after obtaining contracts.

Washington, March .-R-A
complete shakeup Of MIRA, transform
ing 1t finally into q machine to ad-
minister the nearly 400 coded indus
tries, has been started by Hugh 8.
johnson.
New orders to Johnsons staff Of
1900 have placed the process Of trans
formation In charge Of w. Averill
Hartman, youthful special assist
ant. He is the son Of e. H. Harri-
man, the railroad builder, and Is him
self an industrialist Of wide response
bilities. He Is one Of the newcomers
to MIRA.
The biggest change ordered was the
creation Of q litigation division to
handle all court cases in the name Of
the department Of justice.
The new division will be under the
legal department headed by Donald
r. R!chberg, one-time railroad l:bor
spokesman, who Is Johnson's general
counsel.
The reorganization made oil depu-
ty administrators responsible for
quick disposal Of all non-enforcement
complaints on codes under their jur-
jsdiction.
It will be up to them, each equipped
with legal, economic, labor, indus
trial and consumer adviser, to get
action out Of the compliance and liti-
cation divisions. Until now their
main Job has been to get eodeS
through the mill.
No Change In Rank
Although Hartman has been given
perhaps the most important ;.ssign-
ments on the staff, he will rack off,
cially the same as Robert w. Lea,
industrial assistant: Edward F. Nc
Grady. labor; Alvin Brown, executive
officer, and others.
Also included in this similar rank
ing group will be George Buckley, su-
pervisor Of the newspaper and print
ing codes and trouble-shooter, who
may also be given informal Supervi-
sion Of public relations in place Of
Charles Nicholson, who after several
months of service has resigned and
will return to his old publicity post
at the Democratic national commit
tee; Leon Henderson, who has charge
Of the research and planning divi-
sion; and Miss Frances Robinson,
personal administrative assistant to
johnson.
Lieut.. Kilbourne Johnston, son Of
the administrator but who puts q
IT. In his name, is another who ranks
with these as special aide and trou-
!. ble-shooter.
To obtain quick decision on policy
for completion Of pending codes and
revision Of existing ones. three policy
boards were ordered created.

board has standing invitation to be
represented In the policy conferences,
