NEEDS
HOME 50 THEY
BUY BOX CARS

ROCKFORD, H., Jan. 1.-THE
Maxwell Millers, needing home,
bought two refrigerator cars and
three arces of cornfield.
Mrs. Miller is the daughter of
Ruth Hanna Simms, former Him
ois Congresswoman-A t-Large. Her
father was the late Senator Medill
Mccormick.
Mrs. Miller's wedding in August
to young Miller, who works in a
factory, was one of Rockford's lead
ing social events.
Houses are scarce, so they COM
bined economy and ingenuity and
moved two refrigerator cars, well
insulated, to a tract of farmland
IL miles north of Rockford.
The blueprint: The cars, with
under structures removed. are to
be placed side by side on cement
foundations. In the 40 by19-foot
area will be space for living room
and bedroom, when part of the in
side walls of the cars have been re-
moved Other walls will be par
titioned for kitchen and bathroom.
There will be white walls, green
shutters, and flat roof, disable
for a sun deck
The Millers hope to have heating,
plumbing and electricity installed
within a week.

laboratory for analysis and re-
port.
Spectography, photography, Sc
rology and such may just send the
reader to the dictionary, but it
already has been proved that they
can send the saboteur to the pen.
Photography, for example, is the
business of analysing and classify
ing soils, minerals, dirt and debris.
Into this classification too falls the
microscopic study of oils and
greases to determine if any foreign
substance has been introduced to
damage the machinery it is sup
posed to lubricate.
One case where photography
played its part recently was the
Identification of iron filings in big
tractor that was shipped to Aus
tralia. After that, locating the
source of the filings was up to other
FBI investigators, but knowing
what it was narrowed the search.

al plane was discovered to have
certain aluminium alloy fittings
which had been partially sawed
through. Into the laboratory came
the fittings and 176 hacksaw blades
and the scientists went to work. In
a few days, they came up with the
report that only II of the hacksaws
could possibly have been used
on the job. That didn't solve the
case, but here again it narrowed
the search to such extent that the
agents in the field could work
swiftly on what otherwise would
have been a painfully slow inves-
tigation.
In the case o. a train wreck,
a rail had been twisted out Of
place and painted black SO that
1t would not reflect the engine
headlight and reveal 1t was out
Of place. II was the FBI crime
laboratory that analysed the
paint on that rail and found it
to be identical with two jackets
found hidden in a water hole
nearly quarter of a mile froE.

the wreck.
II and when the owners of those
jackets are apprehended, a power
full bit of testimony will be thrown
into the case by the FBI scientist
who made that analysis.
In the laboratory, too, chemists
study acids and materials to dam
age them.
The document section devotes
its time to documents, checks, codes
and cyphers. The search for flour
escent invisible writing, using ultra
violet light and the use of ultra
violet and infrared photography for
the restoration of secret and oblit-
Grated writing are just phases OF
this sections extensive work but it
is one that makes the task of sabo-
tage and spying far more difficult
than it was.
Life won't be as easy for inside
workers as it was 20-odd years
ago.

Lett-Right Handed

Nature has arranged that the
brain shall be mapped out into
definite departments, and overlap
ping is discouraged. One part of
your brain deals with the sense of
smell, another with the sense of
sight, and so on. Roughly speak
ing, the right side of your brain
governs the left side of your body,
and vice versa.
By heredity and training you are
right-handed? That means that
the left side of your brain looks
after your writing with your right
hand. If the right side of your
brain encouraged your left hand
to write as well there would be
waste of effort.
People who naturally can write
equally well with right or left hand
are seldom successful in life.

WIRE TAPPING

Few people, even inside the gov
ernment, realize the extent to which
telephone wires are tapped today.
The good old days when wire-tap-
ping was done only by big-time
gangsters are gone, and almost no
telephone line around Washington is
safe today.
Even the private wire from Secre-
tary of State Hull to the President
of the United States was found to
have been tapped some time ago by
an unfriendly newspaper.
The FBI, which has been doing
the job of chasing down criminals
for years, is scrupulously careful
about wire-tapping. But with out
fits like naval intelligence or mill
tary intelligence, which suddenly
have come into lush funds and have
inexperienced men spending them,
it is a different matter.
Latest wire-tapping development
is the system of tapping the wires of
army and navy officers by the army
and navy itself.
For instance, here is the transcript
ton of a dictaphone recording in
the navy department of a converse
ton on May 26, 1912, between Capt.
John D. Crecca of the Boston navy
yard, and Comdr. E. E. Roth Of
the bureau of ships in Washington,
regarding tank landing boats.
Higgins Landing Boats.
The conversation shows that the
navy finally yielded to Andrew j.
Higgins of New Orleans, who had a
long controversy with the bureau of
ships over the design of tank landing
boats. The bureau of ships had de-
signed its own boat, called the "Bu-
reau tank lighter" which Higgins
claimed was not practicable, and the
two designs were tried out at Nor
folk, Va, on May Is. Here is an ex-
cerpt from their conversation:
Captain Crecca Gin Boston,: We
just got some disconcerting infor-
nation regarding possible change
in the design of the tank lighters.
Commander Roth Tin Washing
TOM: Possible-it's sure thing.
Yes. Isn't that a blow?
Captain Crecca: It's terrible.
Commander Roth: We can't af-
ford it. We had a test down in Nor
folk yesterday. Captain Cochrane
went down, Commander Daggett
(Comdr. R. B. Daggett of the bu-
reau of ships) went down. The army
went down telephone connection in
terrupted). -....
Commander Roth: Well, they had
a showdown at Norfolk but little
breeze blew up. They got up to
about IS knots. The Bureau tank
lighter almost capsized. They
couldn't steer it. They just drifted
around. They had to pack with the
thing. Almost lost everybody on
board, almost lost the tank. Higgins
tank lighter came through fine, up
side in and made the beach and
the poor old Bureau tank lighter was
out there wallowing around. Captain
Cochrane came back this morning
and he saw the Chief and every
body else concerned and they sent
out-did you get copy of the dis
patch?
Commander Roth: Commander
Daggett is coming in late tonight
and I guess he's pretty well tired
out. It's a pretty hard blow for
him, you know. He's sponsored this
all along.

Stoves made of iron and steel are
disappearing from the market, and
manufacturers are trying to make
stoves out of substitute materials.
Many manufacturers have gone
out of the stove business-some be-
cause they can't get the iron and
