—Dietz on Science — COPPER SHEETS NOW PRODUCED BY ELECTRICITY Method Is Much Faster Than Old Way of Using Rollers. BV DAVID DIETZ *rnpj> Howard >nenf Mitnr Anew me'hod of producing thm copper sheets hv electro-chemical methods is expected to reduce the ros’ materially and to result in many new uses of sheet ropper Many years of research by metallurgists have resulted in the development of the new method which is known as 'electrodepositing.'* The old wav of making thin copper sheets was to roll a bar of copper between a series of rollers, each trip through the rollers flattening out the copper a little more. This method was slow, it often taking as much as three weeks to produce a very thin sheet. There also considerable losses due to scrap In the new process, the copper sheets are produced in a few hours. The process may be started with less pure material since it is atitom it’.cally purified as it is deposited. In addition, sheets three times as wide as those obtained by the mechanical process can be obtained. I lie new process is somewhat allrd to that used for copper-plat-ing, but employs an electric current mar y times larger. The copper is deposited from a solution upon a laige, revolving lead-faced drum The copper is formed upon the drums into sheets as light as one ounce p r square foot and as wide a. thirty inches. If a heavier sheet is desired, the thin hcet is sent through a second tank where additional copper is del>osrrd upon its surface Any desir'd thickness up to sixteen ounces pr square foot can be obtained in this way. For Automobile Tops It is expected that the new ropper sh-rting will find many uses in conjunction with other materials to whifh it will be bonded In this fashion it can be used with rom p; si ion board, fiber, paper, felt and various textiles One automobile concern is re-po-:-d to be experimenting with a c ruination of ropper sheeting and fabric as a topping material for rk-sed can:. This would give the car a fireproof copper top. It is believed that this top would weather well and be more resistant to the abrskn of tree branches than the mai ‘rials now used. Experiments are also being tried to use the copper sheeting alonp or the copper in conjunction with another fabric as a roofing material. At the present time, thin ccppor she ts are used to cover undergrot nd pipes as a means of protec ng them from corrosion. It is cu. marv to cover the iron pipes wiiu a plastic coating. The pipe is th- ■ wrapped with a spiral of thin copper. Waterproofs Pipe Joints Copper sheets, eight inches wide, are used for this purpose and so wrapped that layers overlap by an inch. The plastic coating holds the sheet in place and makes the joints waterproof. It has also been suggested that thin copper rould be used to reinforce the covers on library books which are .subjected to hard usage. One oil company is reported to be using thin copper strips instead of paoqr in recording machines. Thev found errors creeping into the rcrrrds because changes in humidity re. : r:i the paper -.trip to stretch or hunk, thus distorting the recor’r. <: her important developments in m allurgy. according to Arthur D. I 'o. Inc . chemists and engineers of Oetnbricige, Mass, include the developments of porcelain enamel on a pressed steel backing Porcelain enamel on cast iron barking is familiar The kitchen sink is the best known example. Pressed steel backing now is being used m the manufacture of refrigerators. gas ranges, electric stores and washing machines. Engineers now are working on lavatovies and'bath tubs, each pressed fri in a •■ingle sh et of steel, and it is predicted that eventually they will develop a kitchen unit of pressed stcrl which will include a sink, rcfr rator, stove and cabinet all in OR-.

Contract Bridge

BY W. E. M KENNEY Srrrelarv American Bridge League 'T'HE following hand will clarify a problem that often confronts the constructive one over one bidder: In this hand both sides were vulnerable. North and South were not playing the one over one, but were using a system of bidding that provided for weak first and second hand and strong third and fourth hand openings. South started the contracting with one spade. Bear in mind that we recommend that South pass with this holding. What would you do with the West hand? It contains lour highcard tricks. You can not overcall because you have no five-card suit. To double, you would inform partner that you were prepared to play the hand at hearts or that you had a good suit of your own, which, of course, is not the case. Therefore, with this type of hand you should pass. You are not going to lose anything with your pass, because if North should pass, vour nartner then would make what is known as a deductive double—in other words, he can immediately picture your hand as containing inch cards, but no good biddable suit end a hand not prepared to play at hearts. a a a WHEN this hand actually was played in a tournament. North raised his partner's bid to two spades, which East and South passed. Now West can double. This bid says. ‘ Partner if you have anything in your hand I am prepared to set two spades. I did not double the first time, therefore I am not

‘GAG’ PUT ON MISS PERKINS IN STEEL CITY City Officials Refuse Her Permission to Interview •Radical’ G^oup. BY RUTH FINNEY Timm Serial Writer WASHINGTON. Aug. 1. The national recovery administration, whose duty It is to protect labor in its new right ro organize and bargain collectively, was warned today that it must keep an eve on Homestead. Pa., after the steel code becomes effective and general attempts to organize steel workers begins. John Meldon. secretary of the Sheet and Metal Workers' Industrial Union, told the administration at its steel code hearing that city officials at Homestead prevented workers from talking to Labor Secretary Prances Perkins when she visited there last week, and forced her to retire with her petitioners on to federal property. •Radicals’ Are Barred Secretary Perkins confirmed the story. She said that while she was listening to a group of workers in the borough hall she received a telegram from George Ecaumont of the sheet and metal workers’ union informing her his group had been denied entrance to the hall. Miss Perkins went outside at the close of the meeting and asked if Beaumont was present and. she says, “a nice-looking young man came forward’’ and introduced himself. •'I felt a definite obligation to hear all workers.” said Miss Perkins. "and invited the Beaunlhnt group into the borough hall. Burgess Cavanaugh, however, who seemed a nervous man. said these men were radicals and would not be permitted in the hall. Talk on Federal Property ‘ I announced then that we would eo to the center of a nearby park, out of the way of traffic. Again, the burgess said he would not permit it. He would not let those particular people speak to me in a public park. "A group had gathered, and 1 called out to know if any one would volunteer to let us meet on private property. Just then a voice called out that there was a postoffice near . by. I recognized that this was fed-

leral property, and felt I could go about public business there without hindrance. The men talked to ; me for about twenty minutes and were to the point.” It has been estimated that flying glass causes 50 per cept of injuries to persons in automobiles Involved in accidents.
