America First Discusses
Rooseve|t's Navy Order
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the ASSOClhteQ fIeSS.
CHICAGO, Sept. 18.-Members OF
the National Executive Committee
of the America First Committee
were summoned to meeting today
bv Chairman Gen. Robert Z. Wood
to discuss President Roosevelt's re-
cent speech regarding naval opera
tionS
A spokesman at the organizations
national headquarters said Charles
A. Lindbergh's Des Moines speech
also might be brought into the dis
cussion.
No mention of the Lindbergh
speech was made, however, in Gen.
Woods communication to commit
tee members concerning todays
meeting, an executive session.
Although America First has made
no official comment on Mr.. Lind
berghs speech, it was termed "un-
American" by Herbert X. Hyde,
Oklahoma State chairman Of the
organization. Mr.. Hyde expressed
the opinion that Mr.. Lindbergh's
attempt to divide America into ra-
cial or religious groups by making
charges against the Jews" did not
reflect the view OF the America First
Committee.

METAL I5
 IN BOMBS
Explanation Given Con- 1erning IncendidrY
 Shells in Warfare
BY HOWARD w. BLAKESLEE
 Associated Press Science Editor

tseUSfdtNu ICSc otkCItC
 NEW YORK, March l8-All that burns in the incendiary bombs now falling on England and Germany is metal
 The specifications, complete, are given in Technology Review" pub lished by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
 The incendiaries are known as elsctron bombs because they are mainly a shell of electron metal the name of an alloy 80 per cent magnesium and 20 per cent harden ing metal
 Inside is a little thermite-al- uminium and metallic oxide-and also a little metallic detonator to set the thermite on fire at the hn- pact Outside is an iron tail to steer
 the falling bomb. Everything burns 1 except the ircn detonator and tail The thermite flames about 50 se- i conds at 5,400 degrees. This ignites the magnesium, which then burns
 for few minutes at 2,700 degrees
 These bombs range from two to . 50 pounds in weight. The large ores
 are used only for special objectives like factories. The two -pounders are what the civilians have to stand. i A bomber can carry 1000 of the latter. Ten dropped at once will spread to scatter over 10000 square yards yet of the whole 2,oO0 drc pped on city, military authorities ex- pect not more than 150 to fall where they will start fires.
 A water spray will put them out" in about a minute by making the magnesium burn up much faster. Powdered tale and dry sand smother bomb.

ONE RESULT OF WAR

Just as a labor saving device, a number of nat tions, including France, Germany, England and the United States, have exchanged tide tables for years.
 Since the present war, an anus ing thing has happened. Germany has refused to send over the tables on those ports for which she was predicting. None of the conquered or Axis nations which formerly submitted their predictions have been allowed to send them out. It's amusing, because although the tide-ables in any harbor of a country at war might be im- portant information to the enemy, there's not a port from the Baltic to Gibralter where Disney's staff ] couldn't give you the highs and lows to the inch and within split seconds. And when the 1922 and
 1943 tables come off the press, the l tide tables for all those ports will l be right there.

 Delegate Dimond, who attended the meeting, said, Tt seems pro- bablc that when the subcommittee ropofts the bill back, it will re- commend that the entire bill be stricken cut and that there be sub- ssituted for it the bill introduced in the last Congress the Senate by Senator King, S 3577, and in the House by Representative Havenner of California.

which apply to all tides any where) and with simple turn ,of the crank give you, on dial and graph, the exact height of the tide at any given second for years to come.
 The tide predicting robot is II feet long, six feet high and two feet wide. It's well-ordered conglomeration of wheels, pull leys, chains and cogs with a couple of score of little gauges and dials which have to be set to the split hair before the operator starts grinding. It isn't the only tide machine in the world, but it is the only one that has been de- veloped to such perfection.
 At any port where observations have been made for this so-called harmonic prediction" is is no trouble at all for Disney and his staff to bat out tide tables for any

year That goes for Singapore, Tokyo, Calais and Seattle. As part of our good neighbor' policy it soon will go for the west coast of South America, for, although tide predictions have been made for some ports on the east coast, tney had never been made for Pacific harbors there. c. and G. Survey men now are in the field making tbe automatic gauge observations that are necessary for harmonic prediction.
