wire, the heavier ones by the wall. The
first will rise along the wire to a reservoir
at the top of the tube and the others
will fall along the walls to reservoir
at the bottom.
The new device is based on the princi-
pie that when gas is set in motion
within a tube the lighter molecules vii
move faster than the heavier ones.
The apparatus consists of two con-
centric glass tubes, one inside the other.
The inner one is heated. the outer
cooled. This brings about an initial
separation of the isotopes by heat diff
fusion But, it is pointed out, the light
molecules once they are heated move
away from the hot surface faster than
do the heavy ones. BY applying this
principle Brewer and Bramley have
worked out device by which the lighter
isotopes can be gathered in the top and
the heavier ones in the bottom.
more efficient method of separating
the natural isotopes, the two scientists
stress, is vital need of medicine, agri-
culture and chemistry. The new appa-
ratus, they believe, can bring about q
much better separation than any of
the old methods.
Beyond saying that the device may
provide targets for nuclear disintegra-
ton" there is no reference to the atomic
power question. While it is known that
work is underway on uranium separation
In various Government and university
laboratories. any progress which may

SANDING OF CHURCH
AUDITORIUM STARTS

Sanding of the auditorium of
the First Methodist (Stone)
church was started this morning
by the Walton Flooring Co, of
Miami. This is quite an under
taking when it is considered the
auditorium is one of the largest in
the city.
New pews have been ordered
for the church to replace those
that have been in use the last so
or so years. The new seats will
be modern in design and made to
conform with the architectural in
terror of the church.
When these improvements have
been completed the First Meth
odist church will have an audi
forum in keeping, artiStically,

MARINES, GIVEN
PART-THME OFF
TREATED TO SPECIAL DIN.
NER ON ANNIVERSARY
OF UNIT

when we aren't fighting,
we're working-and that's what
we're doing today" said Capt.
A. G.. Bleisener, commanding Of
ficer of the Marine detachment
at the Naval Operating Base
here, this morning as the nation
celebrated the 10Th anniversary
of the founding of the United
States Marine Corps.
A brief relief from routine
was afforded the Marines this
morning as they viewed a motion
picture. message from the Com
mandant of the Marine Corps.
Lieut-Gen. Thomas ]. Holcomb.
At noon the detachment was
served a special dinner and in
the early afternoon a brief field
ceremony was staged.
Just 1877 years ago today, on
Nov. 10, ITS, the Continental
Congress authorized the raising
of two battlionS of Marines, COM
manded by one Colonel and two
observation-disclosures. The Congress
sional resolution specified that
the personnel selected for the
battalionS be good seamen or so
acquainted with maritime affairs
as to be able to serve to advant-
age at sea"
Since that time the Corps has
served "to advantage" in every
war of the United States and has
heaped glory upon itself in handE
ling countless delicate intefna-
tional incidents The Boxer Re
bellion, the Tripolitan wars. Mic
aragua, Sumatra and Haiti have
all seen the indelible print of
the ''Semper Fidelis" motto of
the Corps.
Strongest in the minds of
Americans today, however, is the
gallsns action of the Marines at
Wake Island and the still incom-
plete offensive at Guadalcanal.
The Corps will long remember
and completely sanction the his
torically terse message of Major
Devereaiux at the defense of
of Wake Island, "Send us more
laps"

in lieu of personal tax. If the

records show that the late Judge
Jefferson B. Browne paid this ,au-
to tax every year in spite of re-
mark attributed to him and for
which I am not an authority that

It is understood Judge Browne
stated he would rather pay the
present auto tax than a personal
tax which would have been much
higher and about which there was
no question about its legality.
It is understood Miami had a
similar case several years ago and
that the complaining parties won
in their contention that an auto
tax is unconstitutional.

WORK TO START
SOON ON COLORED
DOUGLAS SCHOOL
PLANS FOR NEW BUILDING
HAVE ABOUT BEEN CON-
PLETED: CONTRACT WILL
BE LET SHORTLY.

Work will start during the next
80 days or as soon thereafter as
possible on the new Douglass
(colored) school. Plans for the
new building have been COM
pleted and it is expected the con-
tract will be let in few days, &C
cording to Melvin Z. Russell
superintendent of public instruc-
ton of Monroe County.
The plans specify that the new
school will be one story, to be
built of concrete blocks, and will
have II classrooms, plus pro-
visional space for manual train
ing and home economies depart
ments. Additional facilities for
the school will be considered by
the board when conditions justify
. which undoubtedly will be at the
end of the war.
The site selected is on Fort
street between Olivia and Pc
tronia streets. The new school
will have combined elementary,
junior and senior high depart
mentS and will accommodate APP
proximately 400 pupils. The site
definitely selected is owned by
sig property owners and no doubt
will get approval of those who
have the final word.
The cost of the new building
and equipment will be about
$4,000. OF this amount $4,000
is available from sale of the old
Douglass school building to the
Navy and the remaining $4,000
has been allocated by the Federal
government.
Priority has been granted for
the material to be used in con-
structing the school which means
there will not be a delay in the
building Priority in this case is
made because of the taking over
of a public building by the gov
eminent and also because OF
necessity.
Colored children of Key West
are now being taught under handi-
capped conditions with cramped
quarters to which Is added poor
lighting. The new school will h.
modern in every detail and will
give the children of the colored
race the best educational facilities
they have ever had in this city.
