President Still Silent
After Georgia Selects
1hird-Term Delegates
Declares Thot All He
Knows Is What He
Reeds in the Papers
BY JOHN c. HENRY.
Star Staff Corresnondent

WARM SPRINGS, Ga, April 49,
Georgia's draft Roosevelt" move
ment, manifested in yesterdays
selection of Democratic convention
delegation committed to third term
for the President, drew no reaction
from the Chief Executive today as
he held a brief press conference just
prior to making a long automobile
trip through Pine Mountain Valley.
Smiling broadly when asked how
he felt about the State Committees
action yesterday in Atlanta, Mr..
Roosevelt said all he knew was what
he had read in the papers, and there
his comment ended.
During his automobile jaunt, the
President planned to inspect rural
resettlement project. Basil OCon-
nor, former law partner of the Presi-
dent, and Miss Marguerite lie Hand.
his personal secretary, were to ac-
company him on the trip.
Tanned from six consecutive DAYS
OF Georgia sunshine and looking
better than he has for many weeks,
Mr.. Roosevelt announced that he
would leave here tomorrow after
lunch, arriving in Washington in
mldmorning on Sunday.
He offered little in the way of
news during 15-minute chat with
reporters, but said he was keeping
in touch with the Capital daily by
telephone, foreign developments pre-
sumably drawing his closest atten-
ton.

New Ice Age Began About 1892
Is Ending Now, Scientists Told
Biologists Hitherto Had Believed Lost
Glacial Period Over 10000 Years AGO

told the American Physical Society
today that the speed of his new high
speed rotors is limited only by the
binding strength of the metals used.
Standing in Air.
DR.. Beams floats a pound
cylinder in vacuum by support
ing it magnetically. Thus it seems
to be defying the law of gravity by
standing in thin air. Then. he ex-
planned, by applying current to an
electrical motor armature wound
around the outside of the container
it is possible to whirl the cylinder
at the top speed it will stand. Eric
tion is virtually absent, the vacuum
constituting an almost ideal bear
ing. The cylinder, DR.. Beams said,
has been spun at 1000 revolutions
a minute using only half-horse-
power motor. This power later can
be reduced practically to zero and
the speed of the rotor maintained.
The instrument is potentially
dangerous to those in the imme-
diate vicinity and DR.. Beams and
his assistants work behind brass,
steel and wooden barriers for fear
of possible bursting of the metal.
With the rotor, DR.. Beams said, it
is possible to separate the various
isotopes of the chemical elements.
The heavier fractions fly outward
first and any fraction of the whole
can be drawn off separately in the
same way that cream is separated
from milk in a cream separator.

McNory Wins
Nomination at
| WI. Convention
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LEXINGTON, Va, April 26-
Senator McNary of Oregon, won the
presidential nomination of the
Washington and Lee mock Repub-
lican convention yesterday on the
17th ballot.
The "darkhorse" walked away
with the, nomination with 624 of a
possible 877 votes after many
southern delegations in the minia-
ture convention switched to the
Senate minority leader.
Senator Bridges of New Hamp-
shire was chosen on the third
ballot for Vice President.
Westerner's six shooters and
southerners' yells resounded through
the hall as the break in the three
day-long meeting came with the
shift OF votes to Senator McNary.
Washington and Lee students have
been holding similar mock conven-
tions each presidential election year,
except once, since 1908. 1t has been
the custom to hold the convention
OF the party out of power.
There was one harmonious theme
throughout the three days of NOM
mating speeches, parliamentary
maneuvering and back-stage polit-
lcklng-"keep out of war"

Steinkjer, so miles away. by the
guns of three German desrroyers in
inner Trondheim Fjord.
The Swedish newspaper Svenska
Dagbladet, however, said that Brit
ish cruiser had succeeded in slip
ping past Agdenes Fortress at the
mouth of the ford and had engaged
the Nazi vessels. The British yes
terday reported that the fortress had
been bombed from the air.
The same paper also asserted that
the British have established secret
airbase somewhere north of Trond-
helm, that their aircraft carriers
are off the Norwegian coast and
that they now are prepared to chal-
lenge German supremacy in the air
one of the biggest factors in Nazi
successes in Norway to date.
Penetrate Beyond RorOs.
MechaniZed advance units of the
flying NaZi column were said actu-
ally to have penetrated several miles
beyond Roros to the vicinity of
Jensvoll yesterday, but the Ger
mans made no attempt to establish
position there
The Norwegians, retreating up the
valley, impeded the German thrust
by dynamiting bridges along the
way.
The head of the German column,
according to Swedish correspondents,
consisted of six tanks, eight armored
cars and Is motor cycles. The main
Nazi force apparently was not large,
and only small details were posted
along the way to keep the lines of
communication open.
A steady stream of refugees from
the Roros district was pouring across
the Swedish frontier, about Is miles
away.
Twenty ambulances passed the
border at one point. Four hundred
Notwithstanding 300 Norwegian
soldiers who were interned-crossed
at another frontier station.
Withdrawal Strategic.
The Norwegian high command
said the German advance up the
parallel Gudsbrandsdalen Valley was
supported by artillery and light
tanks. The Norwegians described
their withdrawal from Lillehammer
under this pressure as a strategic
maneuver.
Swedish newspapers reported the
Germans were continuing to land
