Nevertheless, Rendezvous is a
swell film-as vast audiences at
Loew,s Fox have admitted already.
The theater yesterday was stuffed to
the doors with interested fans who
went out into the night delighted
with these stars and VINO also wished
perhaps that they we're slightly Det-
ter acquainted with chriptology and
some of the other literary games used
IN this story of warfare, submarines
and subterfuge.
Mr.. Powell undertakes to make
known the blankety- blank maneu-
vers of spies and hoolagans in this
chronicle of World War espionage.
Seated in Washington and unhappily
removed from France where he would
have preferred to Shoulder muSket,
he unravels the mysteries of codes and
whatnots. while the salubrious Miss
Russell niece of the Secretary OF War,
sits at mis- elbow and pursues him with
lust about as much persistence as did
Miss 10y in The Thin Man"
While the picture makes no pre-
tense to be a successor to the latter,
st has vague resemblance due to the
fact that both of the stars behave in
the same insane manner-and due to
the fact that they are probably two
out of four actors in Hollywood who
could get away with acting in this
fashion. A law should be made. in
fact, stating that when Miss 10y is
off on a vacation that Miss Russell
from now on must appear with Mr.
Powell. She's a swell trouper. and
she comes from Waterbury, Conn,
and not from London as two inquirers
this morning wish to know.

by the Junior Board of Commerce, is
an outgrowth of the boards "Recrea-

month. There was supposed to be a
day devoted TO drama in this week,
which, it seems, never came off. At
the meeting to plan program for
this day, however, there was so much
discussion of local dramas housing

thing should be done and machinery
was set in motion.

Mrs. Mack stood at the door of
the garage. The rain had dwindled
to a drizzle. She could hear the
motor of the car running, and Mrs.
Mack knocked on the garage door,
but there was no answer. She
knocked again, and when there still
was no answer she ran exxcitedly
to the phone and called the fire
department, the police department
and a doctor.
When the door Of the garage was
smashed in, heavy fumes Of
carbon monoxide drifted out, and
Mr.. Wiggers was seen slumped
over a fender Of his automobile.
He was carried out into the open.
I'm afraid it's no USE" said the
doctor after bending over him.
"I'm afraid it's too late. He's
dead"
"Too bad-funny little guy"
said a fat, short fireman. Let's
give him a try. You never kin
tell about these little guys. They
don't die so easy"
So the pulmotor was tried, and
other things were tried, and the
Fireman, and policeman, and
the doctor worked intensely over
the stricken Mr.. Wiggers. Several
minutes passed, and then Mrs. Mack
almost screamed, for here she had
heard the doctor say the man was
dead, and his eyelids fluttered.

crease in blood pressure and generally i'm
proved condition in the case of 80 per cent of
high-blood- pressure patients.
You have heard rheumatic folk comment on
an approaching change in weather? l have
never supposed that there was any scientific
basis for such prediction, but now wonder.
Let us see the results of Prof. Dessauer's ex-
periments on rheumatic patients. By actual
experiments, this scientist found that persons
generally subject to rheumatism reported
increased pains, swelling of joints and slight
temperature when breathing in artifcially
ionized air.
Weather has a great deal to do with the
ionization of the air we breathe. With the
pressure is approaching, as any weather man
will show. A falling barometer is accompanied
by withdrawing of air hidden in the soil. Air
coming up through the soil has been found to
be ionized with positive ions of electricity.
Maybe this, then, is what produces the physi-
illogical changes in rheumatic patients with
the approach of storm.
Is the change in atmospheric ions the cause
of the robins rain song and the reported
behavior of various animals just before
change in weather. Nobody knows. But may
be here is new and fascinating field for in
vestigation. Apparently anything that changes
the ionization of the air we breathe may pro-
duce physiological changes. Perhaps it is the

ions inhaled by an individual are retained in
the lungs. In the case of the larger and
heavier ions, much less is absorbed. With in
halation of the lighter ions the absorption by
the nose and throat is so great that only a
very small percentage of this kind of ions
reaches the lungs.
Maybe this is one reason why the fine
pulverized dust of the air-blown rag-weed
pollen has so much to do with the production
of hay-fever - but more about this in min
ute. Let us look further at some of the results
of this German scientists experiments. When
the ions in the test chamber to which his
patients were exposed were positively cleo
trifed. feelings of fatigue, dizziness and head
ache resulted. AS the positive ions were re-
moved and new ions created with negative
charges of electricity, fatigue and headache
gave way to exhilaration.
Tests made on the blood pressure of pa
tients brought to light the astonishing fact
that positive ions tend to increase the blood
PRESSURE and that negative ions had very
pronounced effect on lowering the blood pres
sure. In the positive ion atmosphere the rate
of respiration was increased and there was
general discomfort. When there was a pre-
ponderance of negative ions, respiration was
slow and easy, and there was general state
of comfort and relaxation. The inhalation of
negative ions at frequent intervals over a
period of weeks resulted in continued de-

negative ions produced by solar radiation as
well as the cheerful stimulus of the sun itself
that brings back renewed buoyancy after the
storm is over
We shall probably find soon that it is quite
as important to measure the ions in the air
every day as it is to record temperature and
barometric pressure This could be done in
weather bureau stations throughout the
world.
At the Department of Terrestrial Mag
netism of the Carnegie Institution at Wash
ington, routine observations of the numbers
of large ions and small ions in the air have
been made for some time. DR.. Wait in charge
of these measurements, has already shown
that the number of large ions markedly in
creases after sunset and decreases during the
late night, whereas the number of small ions
decreases after sunset and increases again
during the early morning hours.
Perhaps here is a difference in the quality
of day and night air of greater Importance
than humidity. Here again may be reason
for some differences in the physiological
reaction of day and night air on persons
afflicted with respiratory troubles.
DR.. Waits apparatus has also shown a
marked increase in the number of ions during
thunder storm. When sufficient number
of ion-counters have been installed and con-
tinuous records made in all parts of the
country, we shall be in better position to
study relationships between the electrical
state of the air we breathe and the physio-
logical and psychological reactions to changes
of this kind
AS / write this, there comes fresh news
item from the workshops of science. Hay fever
patients who have shown marked improve
ments living in air conditioned houses suffer
relapse with the passing of a thunder storm.
Coughing, sneezing, with the accompanying
symptoms, all appear again - but no ex-
PLANTATION has been offered in the report If
we put together the results of the experiments
we have just cited with the knowledge of the
heavy ionizations of the atmosphere that
accompany thunder storms, we may discover
that it is the accumulation of ions penetrating
even the air conditioned houses that again
iTitates the mucous membranes of the nose
and throat of hay fever patients.
1t may be that the pollen itself isn't wholly
to blame, for the tiny dust particles are willing
carriers of mysterious electric ions about
which we know so little The finer the particles,
the greater the mobility of these ions.
When we move into our air conditioned
houses of the future, the inside weather will be
under control; our air will not only be filtered,
cooled and dried in summer and heated and
moistened in winter, but it may well be prop
erly supplied with the requisite number of
positive and negative ions recommended by a
doctors prescription for our own peculiar
temperamental requirements.
Evening star., 1935-12-08


- n while other days lassitude, dis
couragement and inefficiency result in spite
OF all your efforts2 Maybe you have blamed it
ON the weather. Perhaps the weather really
was to blame, for weather has much to do
with the conditions of the air we breathe.
Air conditioned houses and Offices may soon
add materially to human efficiency Air con-
ditioning, however, may prove to involve
much more than the control of temperature
and humidity. This is why DR.. Lewis Roller,
of the General Electric Research Laboratory,
has been busying himself with apparatus to
measure and control the electrical state of the
air in mis- laboratory.
Strangely enough individuals do not be-
have the same in air conditioned rooms, main
tanned at normal temperature and humidity,
as they do in the open air under similar con-
ditions Of temperature and humidity. This
may be due to the electrical conditioning of
the air we breathe Molecules of air, composed
chiefly of oxygen and nitrogen, carry minute
electrical charges, sometimes positive and
sometimes negative. These charged particles
are the ions and there are plenty of them in
every CuDlC IOOI OI we DIcdLIlc.
These ions may result from water droplets,
drafts and convection currents, as in the case
of the formation of thunder clouds; from the
ultra violet radiation of sunshine; from radio
activity in the earth; from the highly pene-
trating cosmic rays from which concrete and
steel afford no adequate protection. The
existence of ions in the earth's atmosphere
has long been known to physicists and stu
dents OF meteorology, but we are, perhaps.
just beginning to sense the Importance of
these electrical ions in biology. This is why
DR.. Roller and Others have set about study
ing the biological effects of these tiny cleo
trifed PARTICLES in the earths atmosphere
Water droplets, dust and rag-weed pollen,
which seems to be chiefly to blame for hay
fever, all form tiny nuclei which easily pick up
electric ions.
Artifcially ions may be produced by cleo
trio sparks in the air, by X-rays and by radium
emanations. Even an open fame from gas
jet or within the fireplace ionizes air. What
ever separates the neutral air molecules into
positive and negative ones produces these
little positive and negative ions. With suitable
apparatus one may extract either the positive
or negative charges and thereby, to certain
extent, control the kind of ions that remain
within an enclosed ROOM 1t is along these
lines that experiments are being conducted at
the General Electric Laboratories.
There are big ions and little ions and others
of intermediate size. Professor Dessauer, of
the University of Frankfurt, Germany, has
found through controlled experiments that
from Is to 40 per cent of the medium sized
