Spray Brings Blush
To PaI|id Apples
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Dec. 30.-Two
West Virginia University scientists
told today how they had developed
a spray to bring a pretty blush to
the cheeks of apples that nature
made pallid, and a deeper tint to
naturally red fruit
DR.. r. B. Dustman and DR.. Ira j.
Duncan described their experiments
with soluble thiocynate sprays before
the American Society of Plant
Physiologists Section of the Amer
ican Society for the Advancement
of Science.
While emphasizing the expert
ments were incomplete, they de-
clared the spraying had developed
a more vivid coloring in some spe-
cies. adding:
There is a change not only in
the amount of pigment color pro-
duced. but also in the quality of the
pigment formed
The two scientists in 1886 identi-
fed the chemical nature of the red
pigment of the Stayman and
launched series of studies destined
to influence the color produced in
certain varieties which are only
moderately or slightly colored.
They found the thiocynate ion
(the positive particles of the sub
stances atom did the trick.

grand slam. Science has swept the
field, but in doing so has extended
to the daily life Of people its own
peculiar abstraction.
Exciting Results.
Moral values belong to the
unseen and probably unseeable. To
ignore the existence of values by
leaving them outside the field of
science has justified itself by ex-
citing results. There is, however,
another side to the picture when
the non-scientific public begins to
apply to everyday living the formula
that has been so fruitful in research.
"Is it not true that the political.
social and economic mess in which
the world now finds itself can be
traced to the same great abstraction
that has meant so much in scientific
research? 1t is only very short
step from saying that the only
reality is what we can see to regard
ing a treaty as scrap of paper
having no values beyond the visible
scene. Adolph Hitler when he made
his Munich promises merely trans
ferred to the field of weltpolitik the
technique useful in the field of
science. That such transfer is
dangerous is shown by the most
casual glance at events in Russia,
Poland and Finland in the last few
months.
THE reputation of obligations
when such reputation becomes con-
venient has become veritable
disease, epidemic among the ma
tions of the world. Even the most
upright of the democracies has
shown the symptoms"

Discovery that certain type Of rat

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Dec. 3O.-Dr.
Jesse w. Beams, professor of physics
at the University of Virginia, whose
ultracentrifuge, generating a force
eight million times that of gravity,
has been used to separate molecules
into the isotopic forms, told today
how this separation had been speed
ed up by the use of extremely low
temperatures.
Fontaine C. Armistead of Rich
mond, a student worker, collabo-
rated with DR.. Beams in the expert
ment. Their paper, presented before
the American Physical Society. de-
scribed how dry ice was employed
to lower the temperature of the
ultracentrifuge to ITO degrees below
zero.
