SGAs in Feminine Voices

Up to about 1880 the singing voice
Of adult males was greatly dis.

writes Arthur ColIani, Newark, N.
J., In Golfers Weekly, male parts
In choirs and opera companies
were assigned to those who were
able to sing In an artificial soprano
through an operation which they
had undergone at the beginning of
their training. Even the parts Of
the most virile heroes In operas
were sung In these high feminine
voices.

Today S Science
= BY DAVID DIETZ

MANS use of metals is 1000 years old. Mans
1V1 understanding of metals is less than 10 years
old.
The use of copper ushered in the Age of Bronze
in 1000 B. c. Later, the ancient Egyptians and
Assyrians learned to iron The Bible tells us
that Tubal-Can was an instructor in iron and
copper. For centuries men have mined and refined
ores, worked metals and made alloys. The Age OF
Iron was changed into the Age Of Steel with the in
venton of Sir Henry Bessemer's converter in 1856.
But it was not until Roentgen discovered the
x-ray in 1895 that mankind IN a position to
understand metals and the achievement OF this
knowledge is entirely Twentieth century triumph.
The who pioneered in it are for the most part
still alive and hard at work.
THE X-ray, by revealing the location of the
i atoms il pure metals and alloys has unraveed
the mysteries which beset metallurgists down
through the centuries 1t was Prof. Max Won Laue
in Munich in 1912 who first showed the way to use
X-rays in the study Of metallurgy. Other pioneers
whose work was as important IS that of Prof. Won
Laue were Sir William Bragg OF London and his
son. Prof. w. L. Bragg.
In the forefront of institutions devoting their
efforts today to the study of this field is the Metals
Research Laboratory of the Carnegie Institute OF
Technology. The director of this laboratory though
young man, is pioneer investigator in the field OF
metalurgy and has made many important contribu-
tons to it. He is DR.. Robert F. Mehl.
The fundamental discovery OF twentieth century
metaurgy, DR.. Mehl points out, was that all metals
consist of crystals and that this crystal structure is
the outgrowth of atomic arrangement
TN the Iaue method a beam Of X-rays was per-
l. mitted to shine through metal crystal onto a
Photographic plate which was sensitive to x-rays.
The result was pattern Of dots in elaborate design,
diffraction pattern to give 1t its technical name
In the Bragg method beam of X-rays was re-
hected from a crystal surface and the angle Of
reflection measured.
These studies DR.. Mehl points out, have revealed
that the CRYSTALS Of metals are made up OF lattice
structures sort of three dimensonal laceFrork of
definite and regular pattern.
The simplest lattice is that Of iron. Here the
unit OF structure is the cube with an atom at each
corner of the cube In addition, there is atom in
the center of the cube Metallurgists call this
"body-centered cubic" lattice.
second type of lattice also takes the form OF
cube but with additional atom in each face OF the
cube Copper is among the metals whose crystals
are formed of these -centered cubic" lattices.
third and more complicated lattice is hexa-
gonal type.

THE World Court fight had a
l. highly interesting by-product
in the Senate. 1t was the reap
prochement between those two
veteran thunderers - William E.
Borah of Idaho and Hiram w.
Johnson of California.
For many years it was a Sem
ate secret" that the two men,
while publicly on speaking terms,
privately were far from cordial.
They never clashed on the Senate
floor because they see eye-to-eye
on all major economic issues. But
there was a distinct GOODNESS be-
tween them which dated back to
Borah's refusal to follow Theo-
dore Roosevelt into the Bull
Moose camp in 1912. Johnson
was the late Republican Pres
idents running mate in that
campaign.
Not even the historic League Of
Nations fight in the early '20s
and the first World Court battle
in the winter of 1925-26 brought
them together. They fought
shoulder to-shoulder in leading
the opposition, but there was no
change in their personal relations.
What these two struggles and
more than two decades of Senate
association failed to accomplish,
last weeks court fight brought
about. Faced with a situation in
which they seemed leaders Of a
lost cause, the two battle-scarred
warriors dropped their old feud
and locked arms.
A surprised Senate saw them
holding frequent conferences and
closely attending one another's
rhetorical attacks. And when the
fight was over they rushed into
warm embrace, generously at
tributing to the other chief credit
for the unexpected victory.

Some time later, out walked As
sistant Secretary Moore, lean,
bald, smiling quizzically.
The ambassador made rather a
brief CALL" newsmen remarked.
About as brief as woman's
love-" observed Moore.
And that apparently closed a
chapter in Russian debt discus
sionS.
THE lcw-down behind the Rus
l. sian debt impasSe is that the
Soviet no longer has any real in
ducement for making settlement
at the high figure asked by the
State Department.
The real reason is France.
On his way back to the United
States, Ambassador Troyanovsky
got word that France had given a
huge block of credit to Russia
with which to buy French goods.
And no debt settlement was asked
by France in return.
The chief reason Russia wanted
a debt settlement here was to es-
tablish a credit. Now that she
has a credit in France, the in
ducement has evaporated.
simultaneously Russia has Sc
cured other things from France,
particularly a political and mill
tary understanding regarding
their potential enemies-Japan
and Germany.
At one time Roosevelt wanted
Russian friendship because Of the
japanese menace. Also Russia
offered a vast market for Amed-
can goods. But the State Depart
ment asked of Russia what no
other country had obtained--rec-
IGNITION of czarist debts. The
Soviet was willing to pay part,
but not to recognize these debts,
even despite the default Of other
European debtors.
Now, due to State Department
dawdling. it looks as If she would
pay nothing.
