NEW BEDFORD, Mass, JAN 15.-
Coast guards raced 100 miles over
seas that tossed angrily in a bowling
snowstorm and bitter cold to aid a
little girl named Sally, who is ill.,
Sally, who is only 5, is the
daughter of Charles w. Tilton, a
fisherman on bleak Cuttyhunk
Island 18 miles off the mainland.
A desolate strip. it is two and a
half miles long, where the futile
Lindbergh ransom hunt was said to
have been conducted.
For several days Sally has been
abed with an ear infection and a
severe cold. Only AZ people live on
the island and there's no doctor,
There is registered nurse and
Sally's mother called her. Sally
didn't rally, and when her tenn

asked Coast Guards to take her

into deep water and transfer her to

resolution for adherence.
He conceded, however, that court
advocates lin some instances have
claimed more advantages to the

Admitting in the beginning" he
said, that many acute differences
between nations will not be sub

there are still numerous issues aris-

policy justif1es shall be referred to
judicial process for settlement"
Veteran opponents of American
membership, led by Senators Will

Hiram johnson (R., CALI, listened
intently as Senator Robinson out
lined advantages of adhering to the
court.
Administration leaders planned to
permit debate to continue indefinite

Adherence to the court involves

ANNAPOLIS, Md. January 26.-
Local contractors and building supply
firms are encouraged about building
prospects for this Spring and Sum-
mer, due to interest being shown by
prospective home owners in the Fed
eral Housing Administrations pro-
gram of financing.
The meeting held at the johnson
Lumber Co. plant last week attracted
about 300 persons. many of whom eX-
pressed great enthusiasm over the
Governments method of financing
new homes. w. G. Fairbanks of the
Maryland Department of Federal
Housing. cleared up many points OF
doubt by pointing out the advantages
of the act.
1t was pointed out that citizen
can build home with very little cap
ital. AS an example, it was brought
out that a person owning a lot worth
81 900 can build a $4,000 dwelling
financed entirely by the Government
through local bank or building anc
loan association. The lot must be
entirely free of debt, however. as the
Government will not insure loans OF
applicants who do not have at least
20 per cent of the total project. AS
shown by the above example. the lot
is the 20 per cent security for the
$4,000 home:
Local applicants were informed that
they could seek Government help by

A warning was issued today to per-
sons who have refinanced their homes
through the Home Owners Loan Corp.
that they may be faced with fore
closure proceedings unless they keep
up stipulated monthly payments.
The statement was made by w. NJ.
Seay, acting State manager of the
Washington Office of the corporation.
Mr.. Seay pointed out that num-
Der of persons, both in the District
and in other sections of the country,
have failed to keep up their payments
Regardless Of whether a borrower
has received notice from the cor
poration, payments should be met
when they are due, Mr.. Seay asserted.
He added that in the event of fore
closure it would be vitally impossible
for the borrower to secure another
loan.
All payments should be sent to the
regional office, in the Equitable Build
ing, Calvert and Fayette streets, Balti-
more, Md. Questions regarding the
loans should be sent also to the
regional Office, the borrower giving the
loan number when he writes. The
loan may be procured from the WASH
ington Office, in the Investment Build
ing, in case the borrower has for
gotten it.

to produce a supersaturated solution,
so as to be in condition for the pre-

well as quenched samples can, there
fore, be hardened by reheating to a
temperature in the neighborhood of

Resistance to Corrosion.
''The so-called copper-bearing steel,
containing about OF per cent copper,
is well known and is widely used for
structural purposes and sheet on ac-
count of its resistance to atmospheric
corrosion. A few copper-al!oy steels,
notably copper chromium, copper
manganese and opper-molybdenum,
are used rather widely in Europe.
Extensive work in Germany has
shown that copper chromium steels,
containing approximately 0.6 per cent
copper and 0.3 per cent chromium,
have a high yield strength in the as
rolled condition. and that. as a result,
they are an economical structural ma
terial. No other copper containing
steel has wide application.
"A very limited quantity Of nickel
copper steelS is now used, and some of
the stainless alloys contain few per
cent of copper. A limited quantity OF
steel containing l per cent copper is
employed where a certain degree of
resistance tc chemical attack is re-
quired, as for oil-well equipment.
"As much as per cent copper Is
contained in recently introduced aus
tenitic nickel-chromium cast irons.
Copper is now used to limited extent
in American malleable iron and gray
iron. Recent work has indicated that
copper-bearing malleable iron has
good properties and responds readily
to the malleablizing treatment.
while the precipitation -hardenable
steels containing copper give promise
of finding useful applications. they
have not yet had real commercial use,
except in the case of cast steels."
The Engineering Foundations Com
mittee, of which Prof. George B.
Waterhouse of Massachusetts, Insti-
tute of Technology is director, began
its studies of the alloys of iron in 1929.

Copper, prolonging the life Of
building materials. will influence the
trend toward light and attractive
structures, it is predicted in report
of the Iron Alloys Committee of the
Engineering Foundation, research or
ganization of the national engineer
ing societies.
The addition of small amounts OF
copper, one of the cheapest of all al
loying elements, to structural steel re-
suits in stronger metal with greater
resistance to rusting, it is pointed out
Economies gained by cutting down the
annual loss of billions of dollars be-
cause of rust will invite wider use OF
copper as an alloy in iron and steel
it is declared
1T was once true that the appear
ance and magnitude of a structure
were of secondary importance, but
the present tendency is toward at
tractiveness and efficiency" the report
says. "PonderouS castings are re-
placed by light and graceful struc-
lures. which are possible only If the
materials Of construction are suitable
Not Yet Appreciated.
''Steels containing copper are doing
their part even though, being rela-
lively new, their potentialities do not
seem to be so widely appreciated as
they will be in the future.
"Since, Of two equally usable, the
cheaper will be selected by the builder,
steels containing copper possess eco
nomic security not shared by most of
the competing materials. Thus cop
per is taking its place as an important
alloying metal, even though it is not
so well known to the public in this
role as the less familiar metals,
chromium, molybdenum and vanadium.
Extensive long-term exposure tests
Of copper-bearing steels, conducted
in the United States, in Germany and
in England have quite definitely
proved that the addition of as little
as 0.2 per cent copper to low carbon
wrought materials appreciably in
creased the resistance to atmospheric
corrosion.
Investigators here and abroad
have shown that iron-rich alloys can
be hardened by inducing precipita-
tlon and that such a treatment may
find commercial application. The al
Toys are somewhat unusual in that
