legendary apple hit Sir Isaac on the
head when it became detached from
the tree under which he was philoS-
ophizing, but also why the planets
stayed in their courses and the stars
in their places. So rigidly did it apply
that astronomical events could be pre-
dicted centuries hence within split
seconds by means of it. Man knew
for the first time why rivers ran to
the sea and tides rose on moonlit
beaches. 1t was the great binding
force Of nature.
1t seemed even more universal in
its applicability when it was later dis
covered that the same law applied to
the phenomena of electricity. A par
ticle positively charged repelled an
other positively charged particle or
attracted a negatively charged par
ticle with force proportional to the
charges and inversely proportional to
the distance apart.
So how could the positively charged
particles in the nucleus Of an atom
stick together when they should be
repelling each other? An answer re-
quired a lot of clumsy and unsatis-
factory rationalizations. with the re-
pulsions of the protons neutralized
by the packing Of electrons among
them. Even this could not explain
the tremendous binding force, but 1t
apparently was the best hypothesis
that could be made.
Hydrogen was the only really pos
sible element, under the 1-R2 law.
Its atom consisted of one proton and
one planetary electron.
90 Elements in Scale.
But there were 90 elements in an
ascending scale with more and more
protons in the nuclei and more and
more inner and outer electrons. BY
the known laws of nature they
shouldn't exist.
Within the last four or five years
came some notable developments.
First were the discoveries of two
hitherto unknown fundamental par
ticles in the atom-the neutron and
the positron. The former was Of
about the size and mass of the pro-
ton, but carried no electrical charge,
either positive or negative. 1t was
just an enthusiastically minute bit
Of inert matter The latter was a
unit of positive electricity. just as
the electron was a unit of negative
electricity. Whether positron and
electron were actually material or not
was an open question, and still is.
Both neutron and positron were found
in the atomic neucleus. The latter.
however. existed independently only
for the most inflnitestimally small
periods.
At the same time came certain
very far-reaching mathematical de-
yelopments-perhaps springing orig
inally from the revolution in thought
which followed the Einstein theories
made possible other explana-
tions Of the behaviors of particles
with results slightly different from
those which could be obtained from
the Newtonian formula.
The stage was now set for DR..
Tuve and his associates, DR.. L. r.
Hafstad and DR.. N. P. Heydenburg,

PROMISES "SHOW"
Political Prophets of Great
Variety to Have 1t
Out Tuesday.
BY the Associated Press.


MILWAUKEE,, April An election
show with acts for political prophets
OF widely varying beliefs will be held
Tuesday when Wisconsin voters visit
the polls, primarily to elect delegates
to the national political conventions.
Opponents and proponents of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, Senator William z.
Borah, the Townsend plan, liberal
fusion, public utility ownership and
final powers Of the Supreme Court
will find the variety program jam.
med with scenes to their interest.
In Milwaukee, the delegate race has
been shunted backstage while the
mayorality duel absorbs footlights
against a backdrop of municipal
ownership of electric services. Mayor
Daniel w. Hoan. Socialist Mayor since
1915, shares the spot" with Sheriff
Joseph j. SINNERS. who has put up
the strongest fight OF any non
partisan In years.
Backed by Coalition.
Hoan is supported for reelection
BY a coalition of liberal economic.
Progressive and Labor groups, known
as the Farmer-Labor- Progressive Fed
Grafton. His rival, SINNERS. is back
ed by conservative and business in
terests who have assailed the Socialist
public ownership and Labor policies
and theories Of production for use"
A stooge in this act is the Com
munist party. Not allowed on the
stage with the coalition. the Com
munists have shouted Endorsements
of Hoan from out front. The veteran
Socialists have fought them of, while
SINNERS has snatched up their heck
ling as valuable to his role.
Referendum concerns acquisition OF
the Milwaukee light, heat and power
distribution facilities of a private cor
poration at q cost estimated from
$4,000, 900 up.
The cast for the delegate race in,
cludes "a uninstructed Republican
candidates, "a Borah-pledged candi-
dates, "a State party indorsed Roose-
welt candidates. Two Democrats run
ming for delegate at large are billed as
genuine Jeffersonian Democrats" and
Roosevelt and the common people"
Some district candidates label them
selves as favoring the Townsend plan.
La Toilette ProgressiveA
In the delegate races, the La Fol-
lette progressive party has no official
party, but as a unit of the Fusion
bloc. 1t is an important prop in the
Milwaukee mayoralty, aldermanic and
county races.
Another headline act puts the in
cumbent, Edward T. Fairchild against
Glenn P. Turner, Socialist, for State
Supreme Court justiceship. A con-
servative, Justice Fairchild confined
his little campaigning to his record.
Turner declared that he never would
rule a law unconstitutional"
The program is filled out with
numerous municipal and referenda
questions in a dozen or more Wiscon-
sin cities.

would pay 4 cents plus. The North
Carolinian, who pays 16 cents a year
now. would pay 2 cents, and the Vir-
ginian, who pays II cents now would
pay cents under the House bill.
In most of the other States the diff
ference in the per capita would hardly
be noticeable In Texas the per capita
would be | cent instead Of the pres
ent cents and a fraction.
While Washington's own per capita
share of the Federal payment wound
go down from slightly more than
cents to cents and mills. local
taxpayers would face heavy burden
of new municipal taxes to offset the
change in the lump sum.
Look to Senate.
Washingtonians however, are look
ing hopefully to the Senate to make
fight against the proposed reduction II
the present Federal payment. If the
Senate succeeds in this effort. the
District still would be meeting about
SO per cent Of the total Of expenditures
authorized by the House.
Recent developments in the unem-
ployment relief situation have opened
up the possibility, however, that the
District may have to raise new taxes
for that purpose. even with a continua-
ton Of the present S5,700,000 Federal
payment.
Assuming that items now in the
House bill remain, substantial in
crease in the local relief appropriation
would leave the District carrying a still
higher percentage of the total next
year, unless the lump sum should be
increased. Before deciding how much
should be appropriated locally for relief
next year. the Senate subcommittee
handling the District bill Is waiting
to see what form the new Federal
work-relief program takes for the
country as whole. The President
has recommended $500, 100000 for
vork-relief nationally. but q bill has
not taken definite shape.
Viewing the pending District bill as
a whole, the accompanying table in
dicates that even If the Budget Bureau
recommendation for continuation of
the present Federal payment of IS, TOO
600 Is sustained, the per capita cost
to the citizens of the States would
be comparatively light, and the District
itself would be paying toward that
lump sum a higher per capita than
the per capitas of 81 OF the States.
