A wild man ia of speculation, recalling the days of the California gold fever, already has appeared in connection with the partition of Upper Silesia. The dan ger of losing certain established tradri connecting through such a stampede, however, is preventing some German traders from entering new combina tions, the purpose of which is the pro motion of common Interests on either side of the boundary. But there is a tendency among German firms whose connections do not make it necessary for them to re-1 main in the territory now acquired by Poland to remove to the German side of the border. These migrators con tinue to retain their premises on the other side of the line pending devel opments. The first days of the opening of the frontier have witnessed the invasion of various cities by dealers from one side or the other in a mad rush to buy up such articles as are useful in their particular lines of business. It seeis likely that the Upper Silesia trade center, which hitherto has been Bres lau, will be shifted to Cracaw. A considerable movement is notice able also in the ranks of labor. Many German workingmen are crossing the line, preferring to take their chances in the Fatherland rather than continue their former employment on Polish soil under Polish labor conditions.

(by mail to the United Press). All conquering radio has got London with both hands. Ever since the night of the Lewis Carpenter fight, when the newspapers "broadcasted" the results of each round into the home of the countless amateur radio fans, the public has been held by the possibilities of this craze. Newspapers are filled with radio news and doings. Instruments of amateurs are now being tuned up ready for the reception of broadcasting reports, which are now allowed as the result of a con ference of officials of the government and post office departments. The Manchester Wireless society an amateur club has started to con struct a high power wireless station at Baguely, Cheschire, lor the purpose of transmitting and receiving from America. truth of the spoken word. Thus a prisoner may recount calm ly a plausible alibi for a crime. Per haps he shows no visible symptoms of fear or nervousness. But if he is not telling the truths his blood pres sure, over which he has no control, is reacting violently to the fear of discovery. On the other "hand, if he is telling the truth, however fantastic, his blood pressure will bear him our by remaining at a comparatively nor mal level. The blood pressure deception test has been developed to a practical stage. It was used by the department of Justice in connection with wartime spy cases. IUis being used now by a criminologist of the Berkley, Califor nia, police department. Here In Washington the man who developed the test has just tried it on a negro accused of murder. Evidence is against the suspect, but the test indicates that his alibi is correct. He is now being held while other sus pects are being trailed. j This illustrates the place which the deception test will probably come to hold in criminal investigation. It will not be taken as absolute proof of guilt or innocence. But in a case where the evidence would convict a man in spite of his plea of innocence the de ception test may lead to a further in puiry into other clues. With the test in use railroading a man to jail may be no longer a frequent occurrence. The pioneer of the blood pressure deception test is Dr. William M. Mars- lton, professor of psychology at the American University. Dr. Marston says that there has been some misun derstanding about his work. He uses three different kinds of deception tests of which,, the blood pressure test is the most reliable. All of the instru ments adapted for use in giving tne experiments that if anyone attempts to deceive the ing his questions truthfully, whereas this reaction would probably be due jto a general uneasiness at the myste rious proceeding.

Using an instrument which is at- Kached to the arm, and which he calls a ..sphygmomanometer, the psycholo gist made numerous tests which sus tained his theories. Tests were made of persons held by the police depart ment for theft, dmg taking, prostitu tion, forgery, and bootlegging. After each test was made Dr. Marston gave his verdict as to the truth or falsity of the subject's account. Then the in vestigation was continued by medical examination, questioning other per- an extravagant illustration, suppose that just as an important question is asked a ferocious gorilla should leap through the window.

It is claimed that the blood pressure -tests were invariably sub stantiated by the corroborative evi dence. Dr. Morston says that he has al ways got-100 per cent satisfactory re sults in making the tests himself.

It is not a simple matter to give a deception test. From a description of the method it is readily apparent why I an expert must give it if it is to be of any value.
