Charging "dirty politics."
Governor Martin Davey Of
Ohio is demanding that
the Social Security Board pay
his States old age pension
system the $1,356,756.38 he
said Is due for the Federal
Governments October cOntri-
button. In a blistering letter
to the board, Davey declared:
"If you don't send this
money for October, 1 charge
you with rObbing the State
of Ohio Of this $1,356,756.38

The board, after cutting off
Federal funds to Ohio for al
legged mismanagement and
political activities, reinStated
the State and resumed pay

TESTED CAREFULLY

The tests include individual
inspections of radium-f filled needles
weighing from one to Is milligrams
each. First step is to engrave
identifications on each needle by
means of a machine which re
duces the numbers to microscopic
proportions.
Then, among other things, the
Gamma radiations are checked
with a huge electroscope, which
measures by projection the speed
of the fall Of gold leaf. The gross
weight is measured to a nicely
and, before the substance is re-
leased, the radium laboratory of
the Bureau of Standards will have
determined beyond a question of a
doubt the purity, weight and
quality of the valuable metal.
Among the technicians working
on the tests are DR.. L. F. CurtiSs,
physicist, and Miss c. L. Lorrey,
Junior physicist.

Shipment of Radium
Tested ut Bureau of StAndArdS
One-Fifth Ounce Is
Largest Amount
Ever Sent Here

Out at the Bureau of Standards
today there is strange sub
stance-strange because it weighs
only one-fifth of an ounce: yet it
cost $150000 and requires con-
tainers totaling half ton of lead.
Stranger still. the substance is
capable of assisting in the care of
a dread disease and at the same
time capable of burning a human
being fatally.
LARGEST SHIPMENT
It's radium-the largest single
shipment ever received in Washing
ton. owned by the Radium Chemi
cal Company of New York, and in.
tended for eventual distribution
to hospitals and clinics all over
the country, the metal was brought
here to be tested over a six.month
period by the technicians of Uncle
Sans greatest scientific laboras
tory.
The tiny amount of radium,
produced from hundreds of tons
OF ore, was transported here in a
truck. Bureau of Standards
experts explained the presence of
the radioactive metal in a freight
car might damage other goods,
such as Photographic film, despite
the heavy lead containers pro
tecting it.
NO GUARDS NEEDED
Although it is valued at $780,
600, guards and special pre-
cautions were lacking during the
trip. Any thief who wished to
obtain one of the bits of radium
would need to remove 200 pounds
of lead-and would find himself
tortured by burns if he remained
near the container for more than
few minutes.
The shipment included $500
mllllgrams, $500 of which will go
eventually to the National Insti-
tute OF Cancer, which will dis
tribute 1888 individual prepara-
tionS throughout the country to
aid in combating cancer.
Each preparation is hermetically
sealed in lead box with walls
three inches thick. Despite this
protection, workers at the Bureau
of Standards are cautioned to be
near the containers only a few
seconds. While not being in
spected, the radium is stored in
a vault proofed against radioactive

Even though Joseph Lizarraras,

his life, he is exhibiting paintings
in oils and water colors in Ell Gen.

Painting attracted his interest 20

subjects deal with typical Mexican
life. One of his paintings took
first prize at the Imperial county
fair in 1886
He also lilies to paint scenes on
