July 15.— 'U.R)~ Half a century before Marconi successfully sent words through the air, a college professor ceased his scientific labors at a signal from a crude wireless receiver, and hurried to his home for breakfast. Professor Jose p li Henry, a Princeton university physicist, in 1845, had established wireless communication between his home and the laboratory in which he spent much of his time —a distance of several hundred yards. His wife had merely to turn the crank of a static machine, and the signal was received on a magnetized compass at the professor’s elbow. This scientific fact is the claim of Dr. Karl T. Compton. recen’.y installed president of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who, before the University of Chicago’s Physics club, added that he recently had experimented with the original Henry apparatus at Princeton with success. Mentioning the fact that physics has been the right hand assistant of electricity, and other branches of scientific development. Dr. Compton spoke of a new gas radio tube —the thiotron —which it is believed, will revolutionize power transmission within ten years by allowing power lines to carry ten t.mes as much direct voltage as alternating.

DELINQUENCY IS STUDIED BY U. S. CHILD'S BUREAU Separation And Divorce Among Parents Found To Have Bearing Ry Itobert C. Albright (United Press Staff Correspondent) Washington, July 15 —(UP) —Separation and divorce among parents may have a direct relationship to delinquency among children. The Children's Bureau has traced a definite connection between "lack o: normal family life” and child delinquency cases, in an analysis of Juvenile Court statistics for 1928. Bureau experts fchind that al- . though 71 per cent of the boys with court records were living with both parents at the time their offense was committed, only 52 per cent of the girls had a similar home environment. "This would seem to indicate,” these autorities concluded, “that the lack of normal family life is a more significant factor in the delinquency of girls than of boys. “The difficulties which bring girls into court are usually more serious in character and more <losely related to home conditions than the difficulties of boys.” The bureau found that only 5 per cent of the delinquent children oi both sexes were living with 'their fa:hers when their offense was committed. About 12 per cent were living with their mothers. Os the remainder, on an average of 68 per cent of these erring children of both sexes were living with both of their parents; 5 per cent were living with a mother and step.ather; 2 per cent with a father and stepmother; and 5 per cent in an- I other family home.. The report, which covered 1928 acords of 62 courts in widely separated states, also traced a relation between nativity of parents and delinquencies of their children. The largest proportion of delinquent children dealt with by the courts were native-born white boys and girls. Less than half of the girls 45 per cent, had parents one or both of whom were foreign born. About 50 per cent of the boys had parents at least one of whom was foreign born. “Accordingly It may be said that he delinquency rate among nativeborn boys of mixed parentage was high," declares the report. The ratios for colored children were found to be consistently higher than foi while children, with the exception of ratios for girls in two Southern courts, at Memphis, Tenn., and Greenville County, 8. C. “It is generally accepted that the offenses with which boys and girls are charged represent different delinquency problems," bureau authorities said. "Our ddta shows that ‘stealing or attempted stealing and acts of carelessness or mischief were the most usual charges in boys' cases whereas the closely related charges of ’running away," ungovernable or be yond pareiital control,' and "sex offense' appeared more often in girls’ cases.” o Tower’s Odd Facing An octagonal tower nine stories high erected at Nanking, China.
