What we need is a policeman to
keep the crowds back SO some OF
those kids and grown ups won't
get hurt. They crowd on the field
so thick the players don't have
enough room to run after the
ball. We need a policeman to
stop those young kids who spec

ing bags of peanuts off the ven

were selling peanuts. Eight kids
raided them and took them all.
We don't approve of such action.
That's why we want law and

Celestial Fireworks
Devised 10 Safeguard
Transocean Planes
Balloons and Flares
Synchronized for Wind
Soundines' at Night

Celestial fireworks as an aid to
tsansoceanic flying may become q
regular feature of air transport
operations between the United
States and Europe and to opera
, tons from naval airplane carriers.
Fireworks, carried into the sky
below small balloons, make possible
nocturnal wind soundings" of vital
Importance to aerial navigation at
SEA, particularly in the case of car
rer-borne aircraft which must find
their way back to the pin-point of
their mother ship following military
missions
The Engineering Foundation has
reported development of new
method Of night sky soundings with
balloons, flares and cameras, which
is adaptable to use aboard rolling,
pitching ship. The device, developed
by Athelstan F. Spilhaus, assistant
professor of meteorology at New
York University, is an adaptation Of
the usual practice of using meteoro-
logical balloons and theodolites for
daytime studies Of upper air cur
rents.
Uses Magnesium Flares.
The device consists Of the usual
rubber meteorological balloon, a
series Of magnesium flares attached
to the balloon by series Of time
fuses, and two 180-degree cameras
of a type which photographs the
entire horizon and sky simultane-
ously.
The fuse is lighted just before
the balloon is released and, as the
balloon ascends, flares go off at pre-
determined intervals of time, which
means also that they go off at pre-
determined heights, since the rate
of ascent of the balloons is known
to be constant at 600 feet per min
ute. The flashes are recorded as
white streaks on the Photographic
plate and the angles of elevation
and azimuth may be determined
directly from the plate, permitting
computation of wind speed and di-
rsction.
Upper air wind observations from
dOOdTU SHIPS dJ 6ed nave always
presented difficulties because of the
rolling Of the vessel" Prof. Spilhaus
explained. Under these circum-
stances it Is not easy to stabilize
a theodolite where visual observa-
tons through 1t are required.
"The 180-degree camera should be
fairly simple to stabilize effectively
and requires no manipulation once
the shutter is opened and the bal
loon, with the fuse lighed, is re-
leased
Ordinary theodolite observations
cannot be conveniently made at time
intervals Of less than 80 seconds,
but with the flash method, five-sec-
ond intervals can be arranged, pro-

detail In the study Of the wind
structure, particularly close to the

because Of the slowness Of the

nation, the satanical aims and
methods of National Socialism
have all received attention. But
there is one aspect of the entire
situation of which too little has
been or can be said, and that is
the heroism of those who strug-
gled against the blight of the
Nazis before they came to power
and of those who continued to
stand up against them even af-
terward. Surely this is a phase
of German and German-Jewish
history to which all humanity
will some day point with pride.
These heroic men and women
may have been defeated, but their
heroism must and will serve as
an inspiration to all who will
ever struggle for justice and
right.
Max L. Berges is himself a ref
ugee, who as far back as 1928
was haunted with the fear of
National-Socialist revolution in
Germany. He pleaded with many
Jews in Germany to be prepared
and to fight, but he preached u.s.
ually to deaf ears. He sensed
that Hitler, once in power, would
not hesitate to destroy the Jews
in Germany by all the means of
professional murderer. After
1888, he devoted his time to the
welfare of Jewish artists and
founded the Union of Jewish
Artists and had an essential part
in creating the Jewish League for
Culture in Hamburg. He assist
ed several Jewish artists in emf
grating safely from Germany,
and at the end of 1885 was in
danger of being sent to a concen-
tration camp. He left hurriedly
n d emigrated to Shanghai,
where, after a year of hardship.
he became the manager of a
ballroom.
COLD POGROM was written
in Shanghai while the events of
Germany's political and moral
downfall were fresh in his mind.
He wrote it on the basis of the
true history of the family which
he knew. He can be forgiven.
therefore, if his words are some
times laden with grief for his
homeland, with bitterness for the
treatment melted out to his fellow
Jews and fellow liberals.
The outbreak of the Sino-Jau-
anese hostilities made him a ref
ugee for a second time, and, ac-
companied by his wife, he moved
