the Chief of Naval Operations here
in 1918 and later commanded the
destroyers Bernadou and Dickerson
and Destroyer Division 31. He was
on the staff of the Naval War Col
lege for a year until 1924, w'hen he
became executive officer of the Bat
tleship Colorado. He was in com
mand of Destroyer Division 34, Bat
tle Force, during the cruise of the
United States Fleet to Australia and
New Zealand. He was commended
by President Coolidge for the de
stroyer division's standing as first
in battle efficiency in its class for the

Earth Said to Have Lost 25%
Of Heat in Last 2 Billion Years
By Thomas R. Henry ,
This 2,000,000,000-year-old earth
is losing its internal temperature.
This was revealed to the American
Geophysical Union today by Dr.
William D. Urry of the Carnegie
Institution of Washington.
The greater part of the heat of
the earth’s crust, Dr. Urry said,
comes from accumulations of the
radioactive elements, uranium, tho-,
rium and potassium, which were
present at the. beginning. Only a
fourth is due to the heat of the
original materials from which the
earth was formed. Internal heat
is responsible for mountain build
ing, volcanic activity and the like.
Has Dropped 25%.
About 500 million years ago, when
life started on earth according to
Dr. Urry’s calculations, there was an
outflow of about one 24,000th of a
calorie of heat a second per square
centimeter of the earth’s crust. Now
it has declined to about three
fourths of this and eventually will
go down to zero. Then are globe
itself will be dead, although this
may make little difference to the
life on its surface.
The reason for the decline Is that
th*e can be no replenishment of
radio active materials and once an
atom has exploded it will produce
no more heat.
Sea Bottom Cores Studied.
Twenty-meter cores from the sea
bottom, made possible by recently
developed Swedish apparatus, are
throwing new light on the history of
th oceans, according to a report by
Dr. Fred D. Phleger of the Woods
Hole Oceanographic Institute. They
reveal that ocean life, chiefly the
microscopic plants known as forami
nifera, have undergone about the
same cycles of tropical, temperate
arid frigid forms as are shown by
the earth’s ice ages for the past
20,000 years.
The cores are taken from under
water as much as 2,000 fathoms each
and consist of the ooze which is ac
cumulating on top of the basic rock
at the rate of an inch or so a cen
tury. If the basic rock itself could
be reached it would be possible to
tell the entire age pf the ocean.
Great weather cycles that sweep
down the ages must be associated
with major fluctuations in the radi
ation of the sun.
This was stressed by Dr. H. C.
Willett, of the Massachusetts Insti
tute of Technology, after a long
study of these trends in weather in
both the northern and southern
hemispheres.
The cyples range from the thou
sands of years between ice ages to
periods measured by centuries and
record themselves in various geo
logical phenomena, such as changes
in types of vegetation preserved as
fossils. They have been attributed
to changes in the orbit of the
earth, tilting of north and south
pole, and wobbling of the earth on
its axis.
Funds for 1,C-3 Jobs
Here Are Restored in
Senate Group Report
Restoration of funds for more
than 1,000 Federal jobs here, which
the House had eliminated, was rec
ommended by the Senate Appro
priations Committee yesterday in
reporting out the State, Justice and
Labor Departments and Federal
Security Agency supply bills.
The committee said about 600
jobs in the State Department were
restored. The Census Bureau would
be allowed to keep about 300 clerks
who would have been let out under
House eccnomies, and funds for the'
Federal Mediation Service would
add about 200 new w-orkers instead
of 100 as provided by the House.
The Labor Department was given
$14,909,990 for its operations during
the fiscal year beginning July 1 by
the Senate committee. This is
$2,411,790 more than the House had
allowed. The committee adopted
without change its subcommittee’s
recommendations. These approved
a total outlay of $890,751,440 for the
Labor Department, Federal Security
Agency, National Labor Relations
Board, National Mediation Board,
Railroad Retirement Board and the
Federal Mediation and Conciliation
Service.
Accepted without change, also,
were recommendations for the fol
lowing: State Department, $205,
985,477; Justice Department, $116,
655,700; Commerce Department,
$174,036,660, and Judiciary, $19,
352,937.
The State Department had been
cut $4,050,000 by the House but the
Senate committee restored $3,983,000
of the amount. It said: “The com
mittee does not believe that further
reduction is wise at a time when
international conditions are so
insecure.”

Rhode Island Republicans toyed to
day with the idea of adopting
House Speaker Martin of Neighbor

possibility of being on the winning
bandwagon.

unpledged delegation.
