EXPEDITION READY
FOR SEA DEPTHS
Scientists Hope To Explore
Unrecorded Depths
By Bathysphere

BRUSSELS U.H-The Picard
cosvns bathysphere expedition
into the unknown depths OF the
sea will start shortly, probably
this month.
The bathysphere, which WILL
carry the scientists to hitherto I'M
reached depths, already has been
loaded aboard the "Scaldis," the
vessel commissioned by the Bel
gian government to take the SCI
entists and their submarine" 1or
its initial tests.
The expedition will consist OF
the Profs. Auguste Picard and
Max Cosyns, chiefs and promoters
of the expedition, who enVlsage
several descents. The sphere IS
only large enough to hold two per-
sons at a time.
The two men in charge of the
expedition probably will go down
together and on following de-
scents, one or the other will be
replaced by different members o.
the party who are specialists IN
various branches Of oceanic re-
Ideal Spot Chosen = 80
Coming from all owe the world,
the men Of science will meet IN
the Gulf Of Guinea, off the west
coast Of Africa. There the initial
trials will take place, both in div
Ing and in navigation. This spot
has been chosen because the sea
is not especially deep, some 1,30o
to $500 feet, with a bottom con-
sisting entirely Of sand. Under
those conditions, and in the event
Of anything going wrong, deep-sea
divers will be capable OF giving
any necessary assistance.
This b~athysphere, unlike those
used in previous experiments, is
not dependent on cable suspension
from the surface but can move
about for better observation. 1t is
capable of withstanding great
pressure.
The scientists who will accom-
pany Picard and Cosyns are all
men who have had years OF expe-
rience in their specific subjects.
Picard and Cosyns will under
take the task of physicists and
will study in particular the ques-
ton of cosmic rays, with the help
of intricate and delicate instru-
ments. They also will have the
added responsibility of general Or
ganization and of plotting their
craft.
The expedition will be doubled
by an oceanographic group. Pro-.
Paul Brien, president of the sci
ence faculty of the Free Univer-
sity of Brussels, an experienced
zoologist, will be incharge of fish
ing operation.
$500 To Sketch Fishes 1850
His assistant will make sketches
of queer fishes which the photo
graphic apparatus may not be
able to record.
Prof. Georges Marlier of Brus-
GELS University will concentrate
on submarine animal life and
more specially on the inverte-
brates of large plankton and of
aquatic insects.
Madame Cosyns will accom-
pany her husband on the expedi-
ton, in the capacity OF biochem-
list. Prof. Piccard's son has been
chosen by his father to accom-
pany the party as secretary.
French experts also will take
part in tie orerations. Francs

Muntz, the worlds wackiest used
car dealer, has quit advertising
"You, too, can be a wealthy pedes-
trian' and announced he's not
buying anymore because the mar
ket is falling.
"TAe days when a three-year-
old Cadillac would bring $4,000 are
over" Muntz, striking his charac-

exclusive running-board interview.
"We're getting all u used cars
on trade-ins here. Prices have
dropped 20 to Is per cent. They'll
go down the way they went up.
But it'll take three years before
they get back to 1910 prices

Form East India Company
# was at the close OF the 18th
century that the British became
eager to share in the profits OF
indian commerce and after some
smaller ventures, the London East
india Company vas incorporated
nv Queen Elizabeth under royal
charter on Dec. 81. 1900.
In 1889, by which time the COM
nanv was firmly established, the
British acquired a strip OF land on
the east coast of India and formed
the British settlement of Madras,
which later became a presidency.
The company prospered and ex

n 1922 when King Charles II
married Katherine of Braganza, a
mart of her dowry from Portugal
was the then Portuguese conces-

| british influence spread and pros
pered.
NapOIeon Threatened
Trouble came in 1899 when the
French under Napoleon, then en-
gagged in his Egyptian campaign
were aiming at a great eastern
empire.
The British administrator in In
dia at that time, Lord Wellesley,
saw the necessity Of crushing this
dangerous power and launched a
campaign which brought war to
Mysore, ending in the British cam
paign of Seringapatam and the
subsequent development Of ALI
ances with Indian rulers aimed at
making the British the n para
mount power.
At this time the greater part Of
India was still under Independent
native rulers; 20 years later every
thing except the kingdom of Nepal
and the Punjab was under the
sWav of the East India Company.
Crisis came with complaints
against the highhandedness of the
British ruling class and in 1857 the
most serious threat to British ad-
ministration came with the mutiny
of the Indian army.
The history of the time is writ
ten in bloodshed in the ensuing
Central India campaign - the
massacre at Cawnpore, the siege
of Delhi and the relief of Luck
now.
Crown Took Over
The great mutiny was laid to the
charge of the o%verbearing East
India Company. whose eventfu]
annals were brought to a close by
the transfer of the entire admins
tation of India to the British
crown in 1858.
From that day to this, there has
been a succession of battles be-
tween constitutionalism and revo-
luton in India out Of which
emerged the progressive would-be
makers of a single national oemoc-
Tracy to take over from the British
