AGREEMENT Seen
(: ON JUVENILE CODE
House and Senate Conferees
Appear on Verge of Final
E. Settlement of Issues

House and Senate conferees ap-
peared to be on the verge of final
agreement today on the long pending
Juvenile Court code for the District,
with q compromise on the one re-
manning major point of difference
between the two branches of Congress.
The conferees last week settled all
OF the issues except the question of
whether the corporation counsers Of
flee or an agent of the court should
determine after preliminary study
when the court should take jurisdic-
ton of complaints involving children.
The House bill vested this authority
In the court agent, while the Senate
gave 1t to the corporation counsels
office. The conferees are believed to
be working on a revision of this part
Of the bill based on some middle
ground.
Chairman King of the Senate group
was studying proposed compromise
this morning. Announcement of an
agreement is possible today, but may
be put off until Monday to await the
return of one of the House conferees
who is out of the city
The need for a new Juvenile Court
code has been urged on Congress by
many organizations for more than 20
years. The pending bill seeks to bring
the procedure here in childrens cases
more into line with modern practice
elsewhere by removing criminal as
poets of the present law and making
Juvenile Court.a chancery tribunal.
Under the proposed compromise an
agent of the court would make the
preliminary investigations, as provided
IN the House bill. but the recon-
n1endation Of the agent would be sub
ject TO approval of the corporation
counsel.

MERGER MOVES
REVIVAL H|NTED
Senator Byrnes Understood
to Have Been Asked to
Seek Passage.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Reports circulated in the Senate
today that administration leaders
might try to revive the Government
reorganization program. which the
House recently pigeonholed after 4
hard-fought contest.
Some interested House members
were understood to have asked Sem
ator Byrnes, Democrat, of South
Carolina, to seek Senate passage Of a
measure-approved by the House last
summer-embodying the key provision
of the sidetracked legislation. 1t
would permit the President to re-
shuttle most Federal agencies by Ex-
ecutive order
Senator Byrnes, who piloted a
broad reorganization bill successfully
through the Senate, commented:
Il have no thought Of making .
new attempt to get reorganization
legislation"
He added, however, that his state
ment did not preclude a change of
opinion.
Might Stand In Way.
Plans for an early adjournment
might stand in the way of any
revival Of the reorganization meas
ure.
Discussing the bill, Senator Min
ton, Democrat, of Indiana, an ad-
ministration supporter, asserted he
thought it would be "fine idea to
seek Senate action on the House.
approved legislation.
Senator Schwellenbach, Democrat,
of Washington. another administration
backer, said he saw little chance the
reorganization proposal could be re-
vived SO late in the session.
Senator Clark, Democrat, of Mis-
souri,, an opponent of the measure,
commented:
If they try to revive it. there will
be the same old fight all over again.
1t would delay adjournment two

THIRD PARTY SEEN
BACKING ROOSEVELT
Progressives Might Indorse Him
for Third Term, Norris
Believes.

By the Associated Press.
In an interview today Senator Nor
ris, independent, of Nebraska sug-
gested again that the new Progressive
party might indorse President Roose-
velt for third term.
Il think We should consider very
carefully whether a third party can
carry out the progressive principles for
which President Roosevelt stands and
on which the people have twice elect
ed him by overwhelming majorities,"
the veteran independent said
Some of the people in Mr. Roose-
velt's own party-at least those in
Congress seem to want the
Presidents program.
Senator Norris added: "A new
party should deal with the same things
that the President believes in and that
the country has Endorsed.
One outcome of the movement
would be to indorse the President for
a third term"
The Nebraskan said the new party
also might well seek to oppose those
members of Congress who were
elected on the Presidents program and
since then haven't been willing to sup
pert It,"

nucleus or adding new ones the old
dream Of the alchemists Of transmit
ing matter would be an accomplished
fact.
Atomic Cannon Balls.
This could be done theoretically by
bombarding nuclei with atomic can
non balls fired with the force of tre-
mendous voltages behind them. Such
cannon balls would be protons or
neutrons themselves or the newly dis
covered deuterons, nuclei of double
weight hydrogen. For a long time this
remained little more than a dream.
For 20 years only very slight and SIM
pie transmutations could be made
and even these were subject to some
doubt.
Within the past four years an en-
tirely new chapter in atomic physics
has opened. With improved techniques
and tools, practically every atom has
been smashed and transmitted into
the atom of another element. Now
the elements are not exact multiples
of each other. Hydrogen gas, lightest
of the elements. often is referred to
as the mother stuff of the universe
out Of which everything else is made
But the heavier element atoms are not
composed of exactly so many atoms of
hydrogen with nothing left over. There
is the energy which binds the protons
and neutrons of the nuclei together
When q nucleus is split some of this
energy IS released.
Splittings Are Constant.
In the hot interior Of q star, DR.
Gramow said, such splittings and
atomic transformations, which can be
produced only very rarely in the lab
oratory, are constantly taking place in
great numbers. The closely packed
atoms are moving about at terrific
speeds and frequently crashing into
each other. When they are split the
energy is released which heats and
lights the earth.
These amounts of energy" said DR..
Gamow, ARE more than enough to Sc
cure star with energy for the period
OF its entire life. Nuclear transforma-
tions involving hydrogen and other
light elements will take place very
quickly inside of stars The energy
liberated in such transformations has
just the correct order Of magnitude to
explain the observed radiation of
stars"

BY THOMAS r. HENRY.

The paradox of the enormous and
seemingly everlasting fire of the sun,
burning steadily for at least 100000
900 years without refueling, probably
is due to the cracking of atoms in
the mad whirl Of the stars interior.
1t cannot be due. Dr. George Ga
NOW Of George Washington Univer-
sity told the American Physical So
ciety meeting at the Bureau of Stand
ards today, to the titanic gravity pull
of the central core to which it has
most recently been attributed Fol-
lowing his paper describing his mega
tive findings, Dr. Gamow explained a
new theory which seems to fit the
facts
If the sun were actually burning
mass, like titanic lump .of coal, it
long ago would have been reduced to
smoke and ashes. AstrophySicistS now
know that it has some other source of
heat and light energy which, although
it is reducing the stars mass by mil
lions of tons a second, can be kept up
for an indefinite period. Under the
relativistic theory, mass and energy
are different forms of the same thing
and are interchangeable. This inter-
change cannot be brought about how
ever, by any means known on earth.
Concept Of Decade.
A concept current with astronomers
for a decade has been that the core Of
star like the sun was made of closely
packed neutrons-almost inf1nitesi-
mally but extremely heavy particles.
Neutrons are exactly the same as pro-
tons, the positively charged electrical
particles which form the nuclei of
atoms, except that they have no charge
at all
Such a heavy core would exert
tremendous gravitational pull on the
light particles making up the great
body Of the star and this gravitation-
energy. transformed into heat, would
be sufficient to account for the SEEM
ingly inexhaustible heat output.
The George Washington professor,
however, has made some new compu-
dition would give the sun altogether
too much heat Under this theory,
he told the physicists today, the tenn
perature of the suns interior would
be close to two billion degrees CEN
tigrade and every cubic centimeter-
about the size Of small die-in the
central core would weight approx
mately 1000 tons. Anything as close
as the earth would have been burned
to cinders long ago
DR.. Gamow finds the answer, he
said in an interview, in 'nuclear trans
formations" Ever since the atomic
structure of matter has been estab-
lished physicists have known that
the difference between one element
and another lies in the number of
particles-protons, neutrons and elec-
trons-in the atoms nucleus. Either
by knocking particles out OF this
