Wonders Of Telephony
Shown at Open House

Busy men from downtown WASH
ington were guests of the Chesa-
peake & Potomac Telephone CO. yes
terday afternoon to see the busy
little girls in the main Office get
the busy signals. 1t was the Long
Distance Open House" an event that
will continue until Friday. BY that
time, officials hope most of Wash
ington will have seen the wonders
of modern telephony.
A flve-Way demonstration takes
visitors through the public Offices
to the demonstration room where
long-distance calls are connected
through to the terminal room where
all the apparatus is kept and then
on to the display room, which is
the show place of the exhibit.
One of the features of the demon
stration is a show put on to simplify
the making of long distance calls
all over the Nation. With eight
cities as key points-from New York
to Chicago to Dallas to Atlanta and
others points-the calls are re-
routed back to Washington, so that
the entire circuit is covered in a
fraction less than one twelfth of a
second.

nessmen were guests at luncheon in

NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-The Amer
ican Communications Association
&C. I. o. threatened today to file
a complaint with the Federal Com
munications Commission if the
Western Union Co. carried out its
announced plan to reduce its mes
Senger staff by 5000.
Both the Western Union and the
Postal Telegraph agreed last night
to pay messengers minimum of Is
cents an hour in conformity with
the Federal wagehour law.
The Western Union said compli-
ance eventually would lead the COM
pany to use 5000 fewer messengers,
altough it did not propose to dis
charge those presently employed
The Postal Telegraph announced
it would make payment of the mini
mum wage retroactive to October %.
Union officials said APPLICATION of
the minimum would raise the mes
sengers' average weekly wage from
Sc to S11, and that any forced staff
reduction would result in "a dras-
tically curtailed and inefficient tele-
graph service"
Declaring the A. c. A. would fight
any program Of mass lay-offs, -
Joseph P. Selly. vice president, said:
go In the event of such dis
charges, the A. c. A. would file a
complaint with the Federal Com
munications Commission, charging
Western Union with violation of the
Federal Communications Act of
1886, and would demand that the
F. C. c. take such actions as would
insure prompt and efficient service" :"

Ey tEe ASSOCl6teQ FTeSS.
PASADENA, Calf, Nov. 15.-Mil-
ton A. Humason turned the big 100
inch Mount Wilson telescope about
the sky looking for bright stars of
yetserday-those which flare and
wane like the movie great-and
found star which apparently had
wandered beyond the galaxy.
He said today its distance is U.s.
600 parsecs, another way of saying
487 500 900, ,OO0, 900 900 miles.
I'VE were looking for a nova. or
exploding star, which a Danish
astronomer reported was so bright
in 1872 it could be seem in daytime, {"
said Mr. HumasOn. I'VE didn't find
it, but we did come across this in
trinsically very bright and extremely
distant star"
Actually, Mr.. Humason was test
ing a theory of Dr. E A. Milne. Ok
ford astrcphysicist, that after an
ordinary star "explodes" it becomes
white dwarf, one of unusually
great density.
In exploding the star hurls out a
huge shell of gas so it appears sew
eral times its normal size and be-
comes for a brief time one of the
most brilliant stars in the sky.
Gradually it fades and returns to
approximately its original magni-
tude or brightness.
Mr.. HumaSon searched for and
found Is of these novae which had
flared to great brilliance between
1910 and 1920. One, nova persei,
but $50 parsecs away, was 220 times
as dense as the sun, which is a
yellow dwarf star A cubic foot
of nova persei would weigh 10 tons.
The average for the Is novae, how
ever, is about 3 tons to the cubic
foot. This appears heavy as COM
pared to the most dense planet. the
earth, which averages 344 pounds
per cubic foot.
white dwarfs really give off
blue light" said Mr.. Humason,
"and these old novae have blue
light Thus with the novae giving
of blue light and being very dense,
my findings would seem to support
Dr.. Mines theory that ordinary
stars, by exploding; become white
dWarfs.
white dWarfs, however, are still
more dense than l found the old
novae to be-"

all white dWarfs, is estimated by

The list of possible Government

whom Mr. Wilson identified as an
employe of the Warnings. The pros
ecutor also read the names of auto
salesmen and other business men,
who, it is believed. will testify re-
garding purchases the brothers
made. The Government is expected
to try with these witnesses to prove
how much money the Warnings
spent.

subject. He added that all resolu-
tions on the subject had been SUBJ
mitted to the committee.
The report. an elght-page docu-
ment. recited the history of the
conferences between the C. l. O.
and the A. F. of L. which began
October 25, 1887. in Washington
and broke up in disagreement less
than two months later
The first hitch in these negotia
tions developed, the report stated

quested:
l. A written statement of the spe-
cific industries which had been or
ganlzed by unions affiliated with
the c. I. O. and which industries
in the opinion of the C. I. o. COM
Rittee, could be organized only
BY industrial unions.
2. An agreement between the two
negotiating committees that the in
duStrial form of union be recog-
nlzed in principle and in fact for
such industries.
Convention delegates loudly ap-
plauded Joseph Cannon of Bristol
Pa. of the Lower Bucks County In
dustrial Council. who said:
If those crying so loudly for
unity would only recognize that
labor movement has increased five
million members in three years.
There is no unity in the A.
F. of L. There is disunity. A hum
dred and fifty craft unions have
been holding up the United States
Governments building.
Let's preserve our unions in
tact"
The c. I. o. states with finality
that there can be no compromise
with its fundamental purpose and
aim of organizing workers into pow
erful industrial unions. nor with its
obligation to fully protect the rights
and interests of all its members and
affiliated organizations
