of the sixteen communities to

It's uses in postwar indus
try will be chiefly in the field
of electronics, radar, and tele-
vision which require an insul-
ating plastic that will prevent
electrical losses in the high
frequency short wave current
used in this equipment, and
which will also stand high tenn
peratures. 1t also has import
ant possibilities in gaskets for
jet engines. Another use will
be in coaXial cables for color
television.
One of the great problems
of electronic engineers has
been to find a plastic that will
prevent these electrical leaks
in the short electrical waves
which they use. Teflon will
prevent leaks in frequencies
up to 5000 megacycles, or 3
million cycles. An ordinary
electric light current has only
60 cycles. The faster and short
er the electrical waves, the
more difficult it is to prevent
electrical loss.

PLASTIC TO WITHSTAND
TEMPERATURE EXTREMES

A new plastic specially built
for this age of electronics
and jet propulsion was an
nounced by E. I, du Pont de
Nemours & Co., at the meeting
of the American Chemical So
ciety.
The plastic will stand heat
up to nearly 600 degrees Fab
renheit and cold down to Is
degrees below zero, is not af-
fected by any common chemi-
cal, and has outstanding cleo
trical insulating properties.
It's name is Teflon, short for
etra-flouroethylent, and
chemically it is unlike other
plastic, because it is the first to
contain the element flourine.
1t was used during the war,
under top secrecy, to make in
sulation for radar and other
electronic equipment and has
been produced in a pilot plant
since 1913.

ministry so apparent as in con-
nection with the life and min
istry of our Lord. The Angel
Gabriel appeared to Zacharias
in the Temple announcing the
birth of John the Baptist. The
angel Gabriel also appeared
to the Virgin Mary in Nazar-
eth announcing that she was
chosen to be the mother of the
Son of God. The angel of the
Lord appeared to Joseph in
a dream, instructing him to
take Mary, his espoused bride,
to be his wife. Angels appear
ed to the shepherds in the field
of Bethlehem. A multitude of
angels joined in a glorious
''Song of Praise" at the birth
of the Savior, singing, "Glory
to God in the Highest, on earth

that all of Gods saints have
the benefit and blessing Of the
angelic ministry, for these
"ministering spirits" are sent

Angels are referred to as
"the morning stars of crea-
ton. They came into exist
ence Gin the beginning" when
God created the heavens and
the earth. The angels consti-
tute "an innumerable host" of
spirit beings, of greater intelli-
gence and power than that
possessed by man. They are of
various ranks. There are the
Cherubim, and the Seraphim;
and others. The angels who
fell with Lucifer in his rebel
lion against God, are the de-
mons who seek to gain control
over human beings and bring
about the degradation and
ruin of the human race. The
angels of God are closely as
ISOLATED with mankind for the
promotion of our spiritual well
fare. All the Books of the Old
testament excepting three,
Ruth, Nehemiah and Esther,
make reference to the influ-
ence and ministry of angels.
The first mention in the
Bible of angels is when God
placed "Cherubim" at the en-
trance of the Garden of Eden.

DUBLIN - The quarter century
squabble over ownership of money
collected for the Irish Republican
movement during lreland's fight
for independence has taken new
turn. Prime Minister EamOn De
Valera has introduced a bill into
the Dali to halt the hearing of an
action by the Sim Fein organiza-
ton to gain possession of the mon
ey.
The bill would direct that the
fund. now totalling 100000 and
mostly collected in the United
States. be used to alleviate dis
tress among veterans of the indie
pendence movement.
The money was collected to aid
the Sim Fein Yourselves AlOne)
movement in the struggle against
Britain. Following the rift in the
Republican movement after the es-
tablishment of the Free State. rival
factions claimed the balance.
In 1924 the then treasurerS. Sen
ator Mrs. WySe Power and cannon
Duggan. a Dali deputy. both now
dead. lodged the money. amounting
to about $45, 900 dollars. in court
1t has been gathering interest ever
since.
