ATOMIC BODY
IS EXPLORED
Scientist and Several As
sistants Make Deep
Study
BY OSCAR LEADING
WASHINGTON. July 19.—(TP)—
An atom is a structure so small
that if a drop of water were magni
fied to the size of the earth its
atoms would be comparative to toy
balloons.
The problems of disintegration
are being explored by Dr. L. F. Cur
nsgypnd a number of assistants,
hope to study results of dis
I integration when particles of dif
ferent velocities are shot through
different gasc~, to get more accu
; rate information of the forces
r which exist in the nuclei, and to
investigate more closely the collis
ions of the infinitesimal bodies.
The basis of the study is the pho
tographing of fhe tracks made by
alpha particles in a device known
as a Wilson cloud chamber. The
particles, traveling at a velocity of
6312.7 miles a second, leave be
hind them paths of fog in moving
through an atmosphere supersatu
rated with water vapor.
When there is a head-on collis
ion, or direct hit, and the energy is
great enough, fra; nents are torn
irom the nucleus of the atom. The
paths of the bits are visible as lines
of fog and recorded on films from
two angles by cameras.
Scientists ha "e not discovered
the trigger action necessary to re
lease the energy hich would be
liberated by one at nr' charging
into another. The energy is so
great that the forces lying dor
mant in an ordinary yard-stick, if
suddenly released, would burst the
earth into millions of pieces.
In the fa—ous experiments of
Ernest Rutherfo.d, he was only
able to detect that, la a collision
of particles, hydrogen atoms had
been knocked out” of aluminum
or nitrogen. At the bureau of
standards improved rp. ratus has
been developed through study for
more than one and r ie-half years.
Now, with the tracks visible as
fine lines of fo'*, not or j can the
collisions be observed but scien
tists can count the number of frag
ments that emerge, the direction
they take and an exact deduction
can be made c' wThat has hap
pened. They can determine the
mass of all ragments broken off
and thus determine what new ele
ments are formed.
Report Suggests
Foreign Farmers
For Mexico Land
' . y
MEXICO CITY, July io.-W
Population of the vast stretches of
northern Mv. -ico bounding the
United States with Mexicans, Span
iards and Italians, is recommended
in a report by the national irri:
tion commission which, after detail
ed study of the problem, suggested
that farmers of these nationalities
be given preferem and advantages
for colonization of the territory now
only sparsely settled.
The commission pointed out that
it is advisable t- populate the ter
ritd®; with people whose tendency
is mix with and crc .te unison
among the different classes and
Indian tribes now liivng there and
to mix among themselves, thus
eventually creating one people rath
er than a series of distinct groups.
To substantiate that lieory, the
commission used the situation in
certain parts of Europe ns an ex
ample setting forth in particular
the case of the old Austro-Hun
garian empire, where people of va
rious origin settled and gained
their individ lity, leading to the
necessity after the war of splitting
the empire in** several countries.
The first thing that sb'uld be
done, according to the commission’s
ideas, is for the government to of
fer Ian- in the te.ntory mentioned
under conditions within the immi
grant’s ability to meet, provided the
necessary help in the r ry of irri
gation, roads, etc., and tl-n give
Mexicans now living in the United
j-yates first right to the soil.
Th:n, in ord . the land would
be placed the disposal of Mexi
cans now living in Mexico, Span
iards and Italians.
Professor’s Effort
To Explore Moon Is
Cause of Sensation
WORCESTER, Mass., July 19.—
(jp)_3earch of a professor of phy
sics at Cla university for a new
propellant for rocke s designer' to
explore upper strata of the air
caused a sensation hereabouts yes
terday, but the result of the ex
periment, figuratively, was some
what up in the air today.
Prof. R. H. Goddurd dec'lned to
Bay where the roc*_;t had come
down and scouted reports he was
attempting to fi J a practicable
wav of ma’ g a trip to the moon.
The rocket was nine feet long,
about 23 inches in girth and pow
ered in such a manner that suc
cessive charges of explosive kept it
shooting at an even pace through
the sky. _

American Girl’s Dream, Like Fairy
Tale of Old, Is Soon to be Realized
- *
KANSAS CITY, Mo., July 19.—
When a little girl Mildred Nelson
read about princes and castles and
everything nice. In her ’teens she
dreamed about the things she read
in childhood. Today her dreams
have bfcome a reality.
In a few weeks she will be housed
in the famous castle of Sonnhoff in
far off Austria in the arms of her
youthful artist husband, Baron
Kurt Ferdinand de Pantz, a climax
to a romance that had its inception
in Paris, where for many months
Miss Nelson has been a resident.
The castle of Sonnhoff is 700 years
old.
Miss Nelson’s marriage in Paris
recently has just been announced.
The bride’s father, Charles C. Nel
son, head of a financial concern
here, made the tri p to Paris to give
his daughter in marriage to the
Baron de Pantz.
The baron is the son of Baron
Ferdinand de Pantz, formerly coun
sellor of the Austrian empire, of
Vienna.
The baron and his bride are
making an extended trip through
the Riviera and Egypt. After re
' turning they will spend the fall
i months in the Castle of Sonnl.off.
Later the couple expect to make
i their home in Paris.

I Sauerkraut A I
Health F ood
.While saurkraut contains mineral salts and vitamines which the human
body needs, it’s greatest food value is in the lactic acid content. The
modern housewife is giving more and more attention to the balanced ra
tion she is giving her family. She knows that an ounce of preventative is
worth a pound of cure when it comes to keeping her family well and fit.
She believes that right food is better than medicine and she knows that
saurkraut is a body cleanser that will keep the body working free and
clean better than any medicine she can get.
Los Fresnos Kraut will do the trick and it is reasonable in price.
Something about old age in this space next Thursday.
