comes from the extension and or
derby exploitation of previously
discovered facts, DR.. Weidlein
points out.
"A good example is i,1 metal
lurgical research" he says, where
great advances have been made
in many directions. This condi-
ton has come about through the
logical and orderly development
or exploitation of the fundament-
ally new ideas which had emerged
more than 10 years ago.
Recent research has consisted
mainly in the refinement of the
old and the application of new
physical methods to the continued
exploration of numerous fields of
work that had been opened up
earlier"
DUT all research is not of that
ID kind. A bigger develc pnent
for the day after tomorrow is
foreseen by DR.. Weidlein.
I'VE are on the eve OF events
entirely different from tae mere
extension, refinement and devel-
opment of cur present-dsy scien-
tific knowledge" he continues.
1T is not what we know that
is so important 1t is what we
do not know. Most of what we
know can be found in Libraries, in
the minds of people, and in
processes as they exist today.
But We have no conception of
what small percentage this
knowledge is of what there is yet
to know.
There may be revealed at any
time basic information that will
keep us industrially busy for
great many years to come. The
very fact that we have a great
deal of trouble is the best indi-
cation of this lack of under
standing.
ANY group of scientists and
engineers can sit down and write
a long list of what can doubtless
be accomplished in the future.
When these new products are
available and if the people accept
them, they then become the be-
ginning of new industries which
will absorb a great many of our
unemployed.

MEMPHIS, Jan. 16. (UP)-The
worst disaster in American avia-
ton history which brought death
to II occupants of American Air
lines Transport plane "The South
erner," probably will remain an
aviation mystery.
Only the tangled, twisted frag-
ments of the giant, twin-motored
Douglas ship, and the CHASTITY, de-
capitated bodies of the victims
held the secret last night.
AS three-way investigation be-
gan under direction of the Ameri-
can Airlines, the Bureau of Air
Commerce, and the Senate Com
merce Committee, these pos
sible explanations appeared:
/. That a faulty altimeter mis-
led pilot Jerry Marshall, and the
11-ton air liner roared into the
timber with throttle open before
the pilot and co-pilot realized what
had happened.
2. That the controls damned,
or the ailerons or elevator fins
failed, nosing the ship downward.
Officials of the American Air
lines would offer no suggestions,
and replied to queries with: "Your
guess is as good as ours"
Department of Commerce in
spectors would not vouchsafe that
much. stating that their reports
would be made to Washington.
The last radio message from
the plane was received at 7:1S p.
m. at that time all was well and
conditions were favorable. Co.
pilot Glenn Freeland said he was
flying at 5000 feet with good
weather and visibility of Is miles.
The wreckage showed that the
air speed indicator was damned at
$50 miles an hour. 1t was evid-
emily at this cruising speed of the
plane that The Southerner tore in
to the swampland with its deadly
destructiveness.
President C. R. Smith flew to

from the scene of the crash, yes

waded through marshy land to

ROME, Jan. IL. - (UP) -
Nearly 1000 Ethiopian soldiers
have been killed or wounded so
far in the terrific offensive
launched last Sunday by the Ital-
ian armies on the southern front
of Ethiopia, it was reported au-
thoritatively early today. d..
1t is understood that Italian
losses include approximately $50
killed or wounded. The battle
continued to rage today.
The Italian troops claim an ad-
vance of nearly As miles since
the drive started.
Every indication pointed to this
being the biggest and most i'm
portant +, battle since .hostilities
commenced.
Airplanes, tanks and armored
cars infantrymen of the regular
army and native Dubats, partic-
ipated in the pitched battle
against Ras Desta Denhtu's motley
collection of warriors, estimated
to number 10000. Fair weather
again favored the Fascist legions
after several days unseasonal
rain which begged. their war ma
chine. '
The offensive commanded by
General Graziani, began early
Sunday in the Dolo region be-
tween Torbi and Bogolmai and in
the plain southeast of Malco Bis
sica. ....
An official communique from
Marshal Pietro Badoglio, COM
mander in chief of Italy's east
African armies, said: "
ARMED Ethiopian forces, un-
der command of Ras Desta DEM
tn, established themselves during
the past several days between the
Kanale Dorya and Dawa Parma
rivers in order to effect pres
sure on our Somaliland front in
the Dolo sector. On January IL
General GRAHAM initiated strong
action against Ras Desta's troops.
1.-THE Philippians have been re-
pulsed and pursued. The battle
continues along the entire front.
Our losses so far have not been
serious.
ION the Eritrean front avia-
ton activity is intense.
The two Italian divisios partic-
ipating in the advance repeatedly
include about 10000 regulars and
irregulars.
General GRAHAM, dispatches
said, decided on a counter often
sive after the battles of January
and 2, when an Italian column
occupied the right bank of the
Ganale Dorya near the villages OF
Malco Cato and Amino.
After maneuvering into posi-
ton Saturday night, reports said;
Italian armored cars raked and
weakened the enemy with wither-
ing machine gun fire, after which
Dubats attacked the Philippians
viciously with rifles and drawn
bayonets. The Philippians resist.
ed .tenaciously from a number of
hastily dug trenches. some OF
which contained machine gun
nests. The communique issued at
Rome said all Italian detectives
had been reached Wednesday.
