I o / I America's Only Active Volcano Studied In Effort To Learn How It Works (By Homer L. Roberts, United Press Staff Correspondent) Sacremento. Cal. —Delicate instru ments. capable of taking the temperI ature, recording the heartbeats and I feeling the pulse of America’s -only active volcano, Mt. Lassen, are soon to be provided in Lassen National Park as a result of an act of congress. Like the famous Hawaiian volcano, Kilauea, Mt. Lassen is to be equipped ■ with an underground laboratory, containing sensitive instruments to re * cord each new tremor or outbreak. 1 while overhead the volcano will be 1 harnessed with precise levelings, ■ temporary seismograph stations, gravity stations, chemistry laboratories and other equipment necessary to record the daily changes in the great volcano. Th's announcement was made by [Dr. T. A- Jaggar. cjj.e.’ of the Section of ’•olcanology United States Geolo-

glcal Survey, who recently made a thorough inapection trip through laiHsen National Park, where he conferred with A. L. Conard, president of the park association. California has other volcanic phe-, nomena. Dr. Jnggar declares. In Northern Sonoma County is situated in entire valley filled with "fumaroles’’ or steam geysers, some of which are being harnessed to generate electric power. All these’are due to receive government investigation when proper state cooperation and funds are made available, . ■ o — German Trade Next To U.S. And Britain. Gaining Position Held Before Wars Washington—(United Press).—Ger-, many, although defeated and almost bankrupt in the World War. today, stands third among the leading na tlons of the world in foreign trade, iccording to the U. S. Department of Commerce. A comparative analysis of internaional trade statistics by the departnent shows that Germany, since the var, rapidly has been regaining her ormer position in the commercial world. She already has surpassed '’rance and now stands next to linit•d States in foreign trade. The United Kingdom leads. From 1924 to 1925 Germany’s forign trade increased 35.5 per cent while France’s trade decreased 14 oer cent. At the same time the for . ■•lgn trade of the United States in-[ 'reaped only 11.4 per cent and that of the United Kingdom 10.9 per cent.] In 1913 the value of Germany’s foreign trade was $4,970,000,000, and n 1925 it reached $5,052,000,000, Due to the decreased value of the dollar, however, the 1925 figures do not actually show an increase over the total in 1913. I France’s foreign trade in 1925 was ralued at $4,262,000,000 and in 1913 at $3,053,000,000. Meanwhile. United States with a •foreign trade valued at $9,136,000,000 n 1925. is pressing the United King lom. which in 1925 had a to’al trade rained at $10,867,000,000. o Mankind Said To Do Its Best Thinking When It Is Too Cold For Comfort Oxford (United Press)—Mankind loes its best thinking when the weaher is a little too cold for comjprt, according to Professor H J. Fleure, sureying the year’s advance in anthropology before the British Association or the Advancement of Sctince. ‘‘We must not argue too crudely that nan's ‘ideal climate’ is the climate of he region in which modern man orignated.” he said. ‘‘The most we can say. in that repect, is that as his constitution seems ttuned to certain climatic conditions, hose conditions are not very o fi '.'ni the <;<-nditi m; pbt inline la Ne region ’n which he ev.-ilved artnitting at the same time that quite 'ossib’y he migrated into a region older than the one 10 which he was . and s'l.g.'ined. perhaps s.n iccess of vigor. "Certainly man's mental processes ire most active at a temperature beow that of the greatest comfort physcally. Olbricht has gone so far as o ventuie the suggestion that the reat mental advance to the fully hunan condition of the race probably >ccurred in a cold, bracing period, perlaps one of the later phases of the Ice Age.’ ‘ The conditions that make us today unction most actively are those of a climate with temperatures usually arying between 70 degrees and 20 de ;rees Fahrenheit, without too long pells at either of tbese limits, with nough but net too much bright sun■hine and with variability and storms as a feature. “Very great cold appears to have deleterious effects mentally and physically.’’ o MERTON ENDS HIS TESTIMONY Prosecution In Daugherty Miller Case Turns To Activities Os King New York, Sept. 15 —(United Press Richard Merton completed five and one-half days of testimony in the 1 Daugherty-Miller conspiracy trial today and the proaecution of the former attorney general and former I alien property custodian turned to tracing the activities of the late John T. King, of Connecticut, former republican national committeeman. It was to King, according to Merton, that Merton paid $441,000 in ] ‘‘conauußßion” for securing return io Swiss interests which he represented of $7,000,000 assets of the Ameri- ] can Metql company, seized by the ( alien property Custcdiau during tb» war.

C. J. STEICMEYER ' 1 IN NEW POSITION: 1 I * Former Decatur Man Nam- " ed Advertising Manager () Os News-Sentinel 0 Clem J.

He ,has been active in civic 1 affairs in Fort Wa>ne and is well M known there. f o f American Boycott Is Proposed By Natives Os Philippine Islands l 1 1 Manila (United Press)—Sentiment among Philipino extremists in favor 1 of a boycott against American bttsin-'. ess men in the islands who are active ' y fighting the independence movement, has been greatly stimulated by the introduction of several bills in I Washington designed to curtail native _ [ autonomy it» the Philippines. . | Senator Osias, who is also president , I of the National University and recog- ( nixed leader of the radical student I element, addressing a mass meeting j. openly advocated the use of the boy . cott as a weapon against Americans I aand British firms which are contributing money to the campaign against independence. The meeting was chiefly for the < purpose of denouncing the Kiess Bill No. 1 which would st-ingthen the powers of the American auditor in the Philippines, the Kisss Bill No. 2, which would strengthen the powers of the governor gone, el, and the Bacon Bill, which would amputate Mindanao and other Moro lands from the main body of the archipelago. About 4.000 persons crowded into the Grand Opera House and cheered vitriolic denunciations of “Ameriian imperialism.” — -o New Calculations Disprove Newton’s Equilibrium Theory San Francisco. (United Press) —As- ’, tronomical revelation., disclosing what ' ip c airned to be a new law of nature, finding Newton's equilibrium t) wv in | eriv’c, lias oisfcii iaiiAiß by Captain ». J. 1 J. see, government astronomer at Mare Island Captain See’s calculations, which have definitely been accepted by leading scientists, prove that tides originating in the Pacific Ocean cause the globe to wobble on its axis and his theory fixes the rigidity of the earth as three times that of standard steel. The discoveries followed a series of minute and highly exact calculations of tidal heights and were a con sequence of the effoits of Captain See to determine the cause of a variation of the earth's latitude, caused by the rotation of the North and South Poles once every 14 months about the true axis or mean position. Tbe government astronomer not only succeeded in proving that this variation, a puzzle to scientists since its discovery, is caused by tides originating iu the Pacific Ocean and traveling westward, through the Indian and Atlantic oceans to the shores of France, but he found that Newton’s theory by which the average height of tides is calculated, is in error and that \under a heretofore unknown law of nature, the average height is twice that calculated by the discoverer of the law of gravitation. Captain See's findings settle definitely two points upon which stceintists have speculated for more than 100 years, it is claimed. They establish that no large bodies ot land exist be ' tween Afaska and the North Pole, and they prove that th'- center of the earth in not liquid. | 0 PRIMARIES SPELL DEFEAT FOR TWO LEADERS TUESDAY (Continued From Page Two) race tor renomination.
