Dr.. Ernest 0. lawrence

The death at 81 of DR.. Ernest o.
Lawrence closes a chapter of epochal
personal achievement in the age of
nuclear physics. DR.. Lawrence was an
outstanding pioneer in atomic science,
with rare capacity for putting theories
to work in laboratory and, through
his successes, opening new horizons for
atomic-era explorations.
Best known for his invention of the
atom smashing cyclotron, the University
of California professor continued tire
leSSly his studies of atomic nuclei. His
findings played an important part in
Americas development of the first
atomic bomb. The cyclotron is device
for accelerating atomic particles to
speeds required to Shatter atoms and
produce new particles. He designed and
built his first one in 1929 and thereafter
improved upon it until it became huge
particles to unprecedented speeds. In
1889 his work was given international
recognition by the award of the Nobel
Prize. Many other honorS came to him.
One of the more recent was the first
presentation of West Points Sylvanus
Thayer Award for service to the Nation.
Although Professor Lawrence con-
tributed to the development of nuclear
warfare, his major interest was in the
constructive, peacetime applications of
atomic energy. He had the satisfaction
of living long enough to see by-productS
of the split atom in daily use for the
betterment of mankind. His name will
have high place in the history of
nuclear science of this century.

Is Years AGO

A man regarded by author
tiles as the most dangerous
criminal Of the time was cap
tured following a jail break
Is years ago. The Star, on
September 4, 1898, reported
in a story from Ardmore.
Oklahoma: Harvey Bailey,
outlaw charged with kidnap-
ing Charles F. Urschel, Okla
home City oil man, was cap
tured about II am. today,
several hours after he escaped
from the Dallas County Jail.
Bailey also is under in
dictment for murder in Kan
sas City, having been named
by the Government as one
Of the machine gunners who
slew four officers and Frank
Nash, Federal convict, at the
Union Station June II. :"
Bailey was reported on his
way to the Oklahoma bad
lands to go into hiding IN
an area already inhabited by
another fugitive - Charles
Arthur pretty Boy Floyd.
Virginia got beer back Is
years ago. The Star, on
September Z. 1898, said:
"Foaming 80 beer became
legal in Virginia today, but
there was no pell nell rush
for the brew as characterized
its debut nationally last April.
In many sections of the State
particularly around Rich
mond, Charlottesville, Win
chester, and in the South,
beer has been sold openly
for weeks without interfer-
enes by police. :"

1t irked me to read Oscar
Doob's letter commenting on
a column Of 1.-THE Rambler"
concerning the problem of
making Washingtonians con-
scious of the wonders Of
their city.
Mr.. Doob states he is a
newcomer obviously to
Washington, and that the
reluctance on the part Of old
Washingtonians to sing
praises of the home town is
myStifying. Mr.. Doob goes on
to say Washington needs to
be reminded Of its virtues
and its Importance as a
pleasant and distinctive place
to live.
Upon consulting the tele-
phone directory, I learn Mr..
Doob lives at 1000 Massachu-
sets avenue, one of the most
attractive sections of the city.
I don't know Mr.. Doob's line
of business, but I'll venture
to say that his travels will
never take him to the less
attractive sections of the city,
once beautiful with attractive
houses. If he could see some
of these sections, I'm sure he
would no longer be mystifled
and would understand our
reluctance to sing Washing
tons. praises. Rather, we
should cry with shame that
the Capital of the United
States should deteriorate to
such an extent. I'll admit, it
has its virtues, If one chooses
to go on a perpetual sight
seeing tour of the beautiful
buildings, the embassies, the
number 1000 Massachusetts
avenue, where Senator So
and-So lives.
Mr.. Doob states "if there
ever was a city which needs
to have its civic pride mas
Saged, Washington is it," No
amount of massaging could
ever restore Washington to
the beautiful city it once was,
when one could walk the
streets without fear of being
molested.
I assume, Of course, that
Mr.. Doob has a car or cars,
and has only the traffic sit
uation to contend with. He
will not have to ride in
crowded buses with little
ventilation, having to stand
very often, holding onto the
seat rod lest he fall on his
face when the buses stop
suddenly, due to inexperi-
enced drivers. Our jobs are
mostly with the Government,
and here we must stay until
we have enough to retire on.

Head of the Church was, Be
cause you have lost your fire.
and are neither hot nor cold.
but insipidly lukewarm, I
have for you but a feeling Of
nausea.
Is it not significant that
devotion paid to fire as a sa-
cred element is reflected in
the earliest forms Of record
ed worship? Eluah's chal-
lenge to the pagan priests,
THE God who answers by
fire. let him be God" has
found an answering echo
from universal seekers after
God.
John Oxenham, in his
Sacrament of Fire" is voic-
ing the reverence and awe
of men of all the centuries
and under all skies when he
exhorts. "Kneel always when
you light a fire."
The Christian Church was
born in an upper room. when
tongues of fire descended and
touched each waiting head.
From sea to shining sea in
America untold thousands of
candles burn on the affairs Of
all faiths. They are but SYM
bolS Of that fire without
which worship is but a futile
poking amid the ashes of a
faith. that once famed in the
lives of other men. A Con-
gresham, back after a re-
vealing journey to lands
where communism is con-
tending for the mastery Of
the minds and hearts of mil
lions. saw that false faith
burning with the intensity Of
an acetylene torch. It is a
cause for which its adher-
ents will lie or steal or MUIR
der. 1t is a faith that de-
mands absolutely all of those
who are captured by it. On
his return this legislator
said, with deep feeling, to a
group which he addressed:
Would to God that here in
the homeland in our religion
we had some of the selfiess
devotion, even the fanatical
zeal, the fire, Of those who
believe Karl Marx has the
secret" But, alas, in con-
trast to the Communists,
millions of nominal Chris
tians in America keep what
they call their religion in a
deep freeze, to be taken out,
perhaps. one hour in seven
days.
The unanswerable argyll
ment refuting every COM
muniStic claim is a Chris
tianity on fire. Handel's
prophecy regarding Christ,
HE must reign for ever and
ever" will be brought to
pass through human spires
on fire. Communism can
never be matched by a So
called Christianity which is a
sentimental irrelevance. At
the center of the Christian
faith is the Living Christ who
stands in the midst of today's
social misery and injustices
with eyes blazing like a fame
OF fire. With a church spire
on f1re as a parable mirroring
the faith We profess, there is
no prayer that ought to con-
stantly arise from the affairs
OF all our churches more per-
tinent than Charles Wesley's
deathless lines:
o Thou, Dho earnest from
above,
The pure. celestial fire to
impdrt,
Kindle a flame of sacred love
On the mean altar OF my
heart.
There let it for Thy glory
burn.
This hymn which, out Of
the many hundreds that the
songster Of the Wesleyan Re-
yival wrote. has been called
the most characteristic would
certainly merit the title, "A
Spire on Fire"

A digest Of District traffic

on September 3. 1908, in
cluded these things which
were prohibited: ITO allow

The District was looking
toward safe and healthy
