How the Atom Smasher Helps Babies

and DR.. Charles Pecker have used
the labeled" calcium atoms to
study hoW-this- element
cows diet is turned into milk.
This was fairly simple because
once any element has taken on
the ray-emitting power its where
abouts can be traced with special
detective" equipment. There is
no place in an animal or human
body that it can escape detection
by this instrument.
Practically all the calcium fed
TO those cows in a reasonable
time showed up in the milk. So
the conclusion is that Old Brin-
die, II she is healthy, viii put in
to her milk almost as much CAL
cium as the farmer gives her.
Similar tests were made with
tagged" atoms of radioactive
iron.
The two scientists report that
a COW fed little less than one
half ounce of iron every "a hours
can produce in each quart of her
milk more iron than a growing
child needs for one day.
Aside from helping dairymen
and nutritionists man-made ra-
dioactive e le m ents are being
tried out by doctors.
Radioactive phosphorus and ra-
dioactive sodium have been used
with encouraging success in
treating patients with chronic
leukemia, sometimes referred to
as blood cancer. which is almost
always fatal. Diseased thyroid
glands sometimes are treated
with radioactive idodine.

-HAT unexpected day when
a giant atom smasher would
be used to help produce the
best kind of food for babies may
be close at hand, according to a
recent report from the University
of California, where this coun-
try's biggest cyclotron is at work.
Babies of the future are not
expected to feed and flourish on
busted atoms. But children soon
may be nourished. according to
their needs, by higher grades Nof
cows milk, made possible by the
atom smasher
The huge cyclotrous still are
regarded by some people as mere
toys for scientists to play with
while they dream about the ire
mendous power which one day
will be turned loose to destroy
enemies or blow up the world.
But one of the most important
lIlIlBS mountaineering iiaNiAii''
do is turn many of the quiet"
chemical elements into so-called
radioactive elements - the kind
that emit powerful rays similar
to radium. To a scientist these
radiations are like labels to dis
tinguish the atoms.
Nl,-, -, 10 radio
active elements retain their pow
er for many hours. but new ones
are easily made and they promise
many uses in medicine and BIZ
ology. That is one reason why
tremendous sums of money have
been donated recently to build
bigger and better cyclotrons.

Blaine. I'VE ought to take look
at some of the differences in
these stories, shouldn't we. You
don't mind. Marks, do you?"
He smiled on Marks, and the
man made a gesture with both
hands.
"All right, Blaine" he said
GO as far as you like"
According to you, after Cabot
came in there were a few words
then he started shooting. Pack
ham dropped, and you ran for
it."
Yes. That's right. When 1
saw Cabot leave, I sneaked back.
Poor Packham was dead, Of
course"
That sounds like a straight,
simple story" said Blaine.

straight sound to it, l guess" re-
marked the witness.
According to Cabot, as soon
as he appeared in the doorway,
Packham let drive at him. you
were pulling a gun beside the
door, he tripped you and went
down with you, while he was on
one knee he got out his revolver
and shot Packham through the
head"
"Hooeyw laughed Marks. Il
mean, how could he have been
wrestling with me while he was
shooting so straight at Pack
ham ?"
Il know said Blaine, nodding
and smiling. But well just get
both the stories straight. You
remember that day pretty well,
Cabot. How was Marks dressed,
for instance ?"
Il don't remember" said Cabot.

No. had on a blue suit" said
Marks.
Cabot shrugged his shoulders.
Wait a minute" said Blaine.
Are you sure you were wearing
a blue suit? Hadn't you sent off
a grey suit to the cleaners that
day-after the killing and before
the police arrived?"
Had II" said Marks, care

that it was new, that grey out

Charge Considered

Reduction of the size of taxi zone
one. together. with minimum fare

being considered by officials of the
Public Utilities Commission, al
though no determination as yet has
been made.
Before a decision is reached,
officials indicated today. work will
be completed on the gathering Of
data on returns now being received
by cab operators under the tenn
porary grant Of 30-cent minimum

zone, a boost from the former 20
cent fare.
At the recent taxi rate hearing.
Brig Gen Charles w. Kutz. engineer
commissioner and eX-OfflciO mem
ber of the Utilities Commission,
announced he favored a reduction
of the size of zone one. Since
then. he has revealed he is con-
sidering two methods: To make
an overall reduction in the size
of the first zone, with minimum
charge of Is cents; or to divide zone
one into two parts. making the
immediate congested area 20-cent
zone. Under this formula, a trip
from there into the more outlying
portion of the old zone one would
cost 10 cents extra.

chairman, said he was studying the
entire taxicab situation and was
seeking to find natural zone boun-

Traffic Congestion
Would Modernize
Signal System Through
Shorter Cycles

Study of the mass transportation
system of the District to determine
how general service, routing, stops,
fare collection and transfer arrange
ments can best help relieve traffic
congestion was proposed to the Com
missioners Yesterday by officials of
the District division of the American
Automobile Association.
The delegation. headed by WASH
ington I. Cleveland manager, and
Burton w. Marsh. traffic engineer,
also suggested rechecks of through
streets and One-Way streets and
studies Of the central district OF the
city as to mass transportation rout-
ings. through traffic. one-way regu-
lations, turning prohibitions, loading
zones and pedestrian islands, signal
and officer control. traffic signs. load
ing and parking rules and pedestrian
regulation.
The group said many Of the points
had been mentioned or treated in
the Whitehurst traffic survey report
and should be added to the four
point survey program now under
way.
Another recommendation was for
modernization of the traffic signal
system with modification of cycle
length so as to provide short cycles
when traffic volumes are light, to
provide adequately for pedestrian
requirements. to improve co-ordi-
nation, to make clear even to
strangers, both day and night, when

Dr.. John Van Ess Gives
Lecture on Near East

A plea for a more philanthropic
attitude among American business
men trading in the Near East was
made yesterday by DR.. John Van
Ess. founder of the, school system in
Iraq.
If business firms would invest part
Of their profits in the health and
welfare of the Near Eastern coun-
tries, he said, their financial gain
would double in a few years. In
addition, the stigma of selflshness,
long attached to the reputation of
the American businessman there,
would be removed.

en- attending the Near East lecture
series at the Shoreham Hotel
DR.. Van Ess pictured the working
peoples of the Near East as near
revolution from long starvation and
exploitation. Soon. he said, they
will awake and demand bread"
American labor organizations, he
suggested, should be working for
labor laws in all countries such as
these, as well as for themselves.

When District officials indicated
several months ago they were con-

'A|esandro Urges
Action on His Plan
For Subways Here
Resolution Would
Empower Utilities Unit
To Explore Possibility

Representative D'Alesandro, DEM
ocrat, of Maryland today urged the
House District Committee to expe-
dite action on his resolution direct.
ing the Public Utilities Commission
to make an immediate survey to de-
termine the feasibility Of construct
ing subways for both vehicular and
rail traffic.
The resolution, introduced late
Yesterday, is identical with one
sponsored by Mr.. D'Alesandro July
II, 1899. which died from inaction
in the District Committee. 1t en-
powers the commission to call upon
any Federal agency for assistance In
making the survey. A report on the
result of the investigation would
have to be filed with Congress not
later than February Is. 1912.
A study to determine the feas-
ibility of a subway system is par
ticularly timely. Mr.. D'Alesandro
said, in view Of the acute traffic
congestion resulting from the un-
precedented population growth OF
the District.
Would Spend $44,o00,oo0.
"The Whitehurst plan contem-
plates the expenditure of more than
$44, 100000 for highway improve
ment, and I know of no better
way to spend the money for that,
he declared.
Mr.. D'Alesandro said the proposed
survey could be completed by the
P. U. C. in about two months If 1t
used the services of Federal en-
gineers and the staff of the National
Capital Park and Planning Commits
sion. The primary purpose OF thu
investigation, he explained, would b'
to determine the location of the sub
ways, the cost per mile and thu
method of financing them.
Would Use Tax Revenue.
Personally, Mr.. D'Alesandro ex
pressed the opinion the Capita
Transit Co. should bear the entir'
expense of subways that would b.
used exclusively by its cars ant
buses. Cost of underground tunnels
for vehicular trafiic, he declared
should be equally divided betweer
| the Federal and District govern
ments.
Rough estimates given both tn
House and Senate Traffic Subcom
mittees during recent studies OF tn
| trafiic situation placed the loves
subway construction cost at 5000,
900 per mile.
In addition to Mr.. D'Alesandro'
| resolution, the District Committe
has before it q recommendation
its Trafiic Subcommittee for estab
lishment of Z municipality owne'
and operated underground rapi
! transit system.
