PASADENA, Calf, February s.
An experiment in alchemy at the Cali
fornia Institute of Technology pro-
ducing energy surprising that OF pure
radium was made public yesterday.
BY Transforming lithium, the light
est-weight metal, into beryllium,
Charles c. Lauritsen, professor Of
physics, and his associates obtained
rays of 100000 to 100000 volts.
This power appears in the form Of
gamma rays, radiation like light,
which can penetrate several inches Of
lead. Radium's most powerful gamma
rays are about 100000 volts.
In the alchemy changes the source
of these new rays can be definitely
identified. They emanate from the
binding energy which holds together
the nucleus of an atom. This energy
is in part an extremely dense elec-
trical field. The rays are part OF the
electrical energy set loose from this
field.
Pr0tons Produced.
Prof. Lauritsen produced the lith-
ium changes in the million-yolt tube
of the California Institute of Tech
nology. In this tube the lithium was
placed in q vacuum chamber. In
the same chamber he produced pro-
tons. which are hydrogen atoms
stripped of their outer electrons.
The hydrogen protons were focused
so that the tube drove them with great
speed against the lithium. This
changed some Of the hthium atoms
into a different metallic element-a
new form of beryllium.
The atoms which changed are known
as lithium seven. because they have q
mass Of seven atomic units. They
were converted into a substance with
a mass Of eight atomic units. Or
dinary beryllium has an atomic
weight of nine
100000 Volt Rays.
The new form Of beryllium gave OH
the 100000 and 100000 volt
gamma rays. Whether this new met
allie substance is something that will
last q long time or Is unstable and
likely to disintegrate is not yet known.
Other alchemy experiments yielded
rays almost as powerful. One pro-
duced beta rays, or streams OF elec-
trcns, Of 10000, 900 to IL 100000 volts.

Evening star., 1936-02-03

while these were cut by 1,14a In the
next year to 1880 on September 80,
1885. Pay roll reductions, he said,
amounted to $l,135.402 over the same
period.
THE reason for the excess number
Of employees in 1884" the Governor
said, may be obvious, but certainly
1t is fact that the curtailment of
forces Of the commission was abso-
lutely essential in order to reduce the
excessive costs Of maintaining the
system"
1T is the consensus Of opinion" !"
Gov. Nice said, defending the reduc-
ton In the number Of employees, that,
in spite Of the reduction the
road systems have been maintained
at high standard, and this is GER
titled by State road engineers not
appointed by me, but in the State
service for many years under the
| merit system, and whose testimony
should be conclusive"
Warns Of Overdrafts.
Referring to the overdrafts in the
counties accounts with the commits
sion. the Governor reported that 'it
is Of the utmost Importance" that the
Legislature authorize the Roads Com
mission to reduce them gradually.
The Governor, warding of further
criticism of the speed with which the
Federal-aid road program was drafted,
asserted that the commission had
drawn it I'D within three months of
the time 1t took Office.
Had the approval Of the Federal
authorities been given to the entire
program" the Governor added, sit
would very materially have relieved
unemployment" The Federal authori-
ties returned the program to have it
redrafted in conformity with the law

Warns of Short Funds.

BALTIMORE, February 3-Gaso-
line tax revenues must not" be di-
verted to relief or other purposes.
Gov. Harry w. Nice said today. as
he predicted that only $2,569, 900
would be available this fiscal year for
building new roads.
Certainly, this 1859 900 must not
be further depleted" the Governor
said. II make this statement because
of resolutions, personal letters, and
what seems to be the lay thought
that this money should be expended
for relief and other purposes. This,
7 think, would be serious mistake. !"
$16,427,415 Due.
Gov. Nice's stand was expressed in
the second Of series Of reports on
the activities Of various State depart
ments since he took Office more than
a year ago. The current review deals
with the State Roads Administration
since the present administration took
Office on May Is, 1885.
The Governor said that during the
present fiscal year the commission
will receive $l6,427,415. More than
So, 10000 will go to debt service, more
than 100000 to Baltimore City for
maintenance Of its streets and more
than 100000 for road maintenance.
Small construction and maintenance
items will take sl,670,783 more.
The Governor said that when the
present commission took Office its ac-
count was overdraWn $5,483, with
unpaid obligations of $228,233. Now,
he said. there is $458,157 in the gen.
eral fund. with only $17,449 due on
open accounts.
STAFF Sharply Cut.
This gain, the Governor said, was
made by reducing expenditures for
maintenance, salaries, debt service
and cutting the reserve for paying off
debentures.
Personnel reductions amounted to
almost one-third Of the total staff.
On September 80, 1894, the Governor
reported, there were 1919 employees,

In the country and small towns
of Oklahoma, where fresh meat,
butter, eggs and vegetables can
be had, they can live more
cheaply, because they have no
transportation charges, no cold
storage charges, commissions, or
handling charges, as the laborer
in New York city, Chicago and
elsewhere, because these extra
charges are added to the cost of
living of the city laborer; and
yet, in their administration they
fixed the same compensation for
the laborer or alleged laborer, in
the South and West as in the
city of New York, Chicago, or
like situation.
That difference In cost Of liv.
ing should have marked diff
