Rare Element Found
in Siberian Mountains

Professor V. z. Zviagintzev Of the
Soviet Academy Of Sciences has
announced that the rare chemical
element, gallium. has been extracted
from minerals found in the Altsi
Mountains OF Siberia. Gallium is a
metal which melts in hot weather
at 30 degrees Centigrade or Sc de-
grees Fahrenheit. Its boiling point
is nearly 1900 degrees Fahrenheit.
which is higher tn an that Of
mercury, which boils at 675 degrees.
1t is therefore more useful than
mercury in the manufacture Of
thermometers for use at high tenn
perstures. Gallium is also used in
medicine. In sufficient quantity it
could be applied, as mercury has
been applied. to the generation Of
electric power by steam, with re-
suits superior to those achieved
with mercury, which in turn has
been found vastly more efficient
than water for steam generation.
The existence Of gallium was pre-
dicted first in 1869 by the Russian
scientist Mendeleeff, famous for his
discovery Of the periodic table Of
chemical elements. 1t was dis
covered in 1871 by the French
chemist Lecoq de Boisbaudran-
hence the name gsllium, after the
ancient name Of France. SO far
only relatively small quantities Of
gallium have been available, ex-
tracted mainly in Germany and
the United States.
In 1881 Professor Grinberg of
Leningrad suggested that the zinc
ores Of the deposits in the Altai
Mountains might contain the rare
element. Spectroscopic analysis of
these ores showed the presence of
gallium, and treatment yielded a
small amount of gallium oxide.
Professor Grinberg is now leaving
for Siberia to determine the most
efficient methods of extracting this
important metal.

women become soldiers: life is
strenuous fighting, conquering, for
all.
So. as the White armies march,
every eye spies upon them, every
arm is against them: all life is
against them. 1t is impossible to
defeat a people. And in the Red
armies they face attack not only at
their bodies, but at their minds.
The propaganda of the Red Army.
painted on anything that can bear
paint, along the enemy line of
march, spoken by fearless men who
penetrate into the white ranks,
shouted to them across the trenches,
shatter their morale. Most of them
were exploited workers, forced into
the armies, and have found them
selves exploited no less as soldiers.
Therefore, they desert to the Red
Armies, often by whole divisions.
DUT the Red Army has had to
u fight. like all revolutions, en-
emies within. Landlords pretended
to be Communists, worked their
way up in the councils, directed the
redivision of land in their own class
interest. Often peasants would APP
peal to the Red Army to come and
destroy their local Soviets. An Or
ganization called the A. B. anti
Bolsheviks) penetrated even into
the Red Army command; even into
the executive bodies of the Party.
Campaign plans we're revealed;
there was sabotage, betrayal on
the battle field. Associated with
this organization which had its
headquarters in Marking govern
ment offices, were so-called cleft
Kuomintang' elements, Socia
Democrats, Trotskyites.
But these inner enemies, who had
to be met during the crisis of enemy
campaigns, were also overcome.
Their activities brought on a purge
OF the army, the Party and the
mass organizations, which strength
ened them all. The purged and
steeled Party then held its first
congress postponed again and
again by campaign necessities) in
November, 1881. 1t was a historic
moment. At this congress, VIC
torious and united, the Chinese So
cialist Soviet Republic was born.
This inspiring story Agnes Smed-
ley tells. so wildly, so powerfully.
that there is no strangeness or
remoteness even in the Chinese
names. Rarely has space and
strangeness been so completely
eliminated in a book as in this one.
The people it deals with are our
comrades; we are close to them;
their struggle is ours. Every worker
should read this book, that brings
us so near to the world revolu-
tionary front, that lets us see. in
the very process, and as if we were
there. the construction of the sec

the conversation around to Cliff,
asking Mrs. Person how her nephew
was getting on. The landlady was
surprised. She said that Cliff was
only boarder, and. for that

He was also a tramp. He washed
his clothes in the kitchen and used
her soap and gave her a lot of
trouble. She would like to get rid
of him, but he owed her for three
weeks board and it would be lost
if she'd tell him to move. Then
she asked how Mrs. Wrobley came
to know him. Ednas mother said
that he was her girls boy friend.
Mrs. Person advised her holly to
make Edna put an end to the
friendship.
Edna's mother came home all eX-
cited. She told Edna what she
had found out from Mrs. Porson.
She warned her daughter that if
she kept on stepping out with that
tramp, she'd have her chased out
of the house.
Edna was shocked to hear all
this. She didn't know what to say

mother accusing her of going
around telling people about her
boy friends.

Chemical Analysis
BY X-Rays

A Swedish chemist, DR.. L. v.
Hamos of Stockholm, has discov-
cred a new way TO analyze metallic
substances. He claims that by hold
ing a piece of metal up to beam
of X-ray it is possible quickly to
determine its chemical constituents.
DR.. Hamos has built metallic
sandwiches" consisting of paper
like strips of metal piled one on top
OF the other. By aiming X-rays at
the Eliminated sandwich he has
been able to tell what kind Of metal
ives used for each layer, although
in some cases the edge of the strip
was only 1-250th Of an inch thick
When the initial beam of X-rsy
strikes the Eliminated edge it pro-
duces secondary X-rays which come

Casein Glazes
Paper

The highly polished surface Of
the paper used in expensive maya
zines carrying pictorial matter IS
produced with skim milk. The sur
face consists of casein pressed into
the paper This makes possible fine
printing and the reproduction OF
delicately worked etchings and
beautifully colored photographs.
Casein is obtained from the curd Of
milk after the whey has been sep
srated out.
A machine which manufactures
casein in a continuous single proc
ess and the product of which rivals
the best imported casein has been
developed by F. L. Chappen of
Hobart, N. Y. This is an impor-
tant discovery for the printing in
dustry, since for good printing the
casein must have uniform quality.
Up to now the paper mills which
make fine paper almost by the
square mile have found it difficult
to maintain uniformity in their
surfaces.

continuously and each chemical
step to remove impurities follows in
sequences. The finished casein is
claimed to be superior to that made
by older methods. The whey which
is obtained contains lactose, inor-
ganic salts and some residual al
bumin. This is utilized in several
ways. 1t may be evaporated di-
rectly into powder to yield rich
food for poultry and stock. Or it
may be fermented to yield Tactic
acid. Or its albuminous content
may be separated and used.
The new machine will be utilized
to supply casein for gluesh, cold
water paints leather dressings and
flnishings paste shoe polish, special
food products, medicines, oilcloth,
linoleum and soaps.
