—Dietz on Science — CHANGING IRON TO GOLD TO BE SCIENTIFIC FACT Liner Voyage Powered With Pint of Hydrogen Also Forecast. BY DAVID DIETZ Srripp&'floward Science Editor A day is coming when a pint of hydrogen will be- all the fuel needed to drive an ocean liner from New York to Cherbourg and back again. A day is coming when a pound of iron will be as valuable as a pound of gold because it will be possible at will to change the iron into gold. Those are two of the promises which spur on the scientists engaged in the smashing of the atom. The release of atomic energy and the transmutation of om- chemical element into another are two of the things which they expect to accomplish. Asa matter of fact both have been accomplished although In such slight degree that they have no commercial or social significance to date. But accomplishment on a large scale is only a matter of time. And when that happens, humanity will live in anew world. Values Will Ite Lost For one thing, it will be off the gold standard permanently. Gold won t mean a thing when it will be possible to change any chemical element into gold at will. For another thing, the possession of coal, petroleum and water power won't mean a thing for far greater power will be found in a lump of clay, a quart of water, or a pint of any gas. It is true that most of the people engaged in atom smashing will tell you that they are chiefly interested in finding out more about the atom and the structure of the universe. This is perfectly true. It has been true of scientists down through the centuries. But out of such researches in pure science always have come the triumphs of applied science. High Voltage Developed Interest at present is centered largely upon the electrostatic generator just built in an airplane hangar at South Dartmouth, Mass. This generator, built by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, under the direction of Dr. Robert J. Van De Graf, develops a direct current voltage five times higher than that ever achieved before. The generator has two huge aluminum spheres, fifteen feet in diameter. mounted on tall pillars. A rope of yellow lightning, twisting and roaring, a rope forty feet long, leaps between these two spheres wlrn the generator is in operation. The segment of ilghtning has an electrical potential of 7,000.000 volts. Work Is World-Wide In atom-smashing experiments, this tremendous electrical power will be confined within a glass vacuum tube placed between the two spheres. Its function then wall be to tear apart atoms of gases or metals within the tube. Experiments in atom smashing are now going on in laboratories all over the world. Those particularly in the limelight include the ones at the California Institute of Technology. University of California. University of Chicago, University of Cambridge. England; Carnegie Institute of Washington. Electric Company and Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company. GOVERNOR GIVES TALK Outlines Activities of State At Vincennes Banquet. /{;/ Times Special VINCENNES, Dec. 6. —Activities of thp various departments of state administration were outlined by Governor Paul V. McNutt in an address here last night at a banquet attended by more than 800 in Gibault auditorium. Efforts toward re-employment, poor relief, sound banking, reduction of public utility rates and government economies were discussed by the Governor. Statistics prove that it is twice as dangerous for a pedestrian to cross an intersection diagonally as it is to cross with the light.

Contract Bridge
Today’s Contract Problem North is playing the following hand at four spades. It looks as though declarer must lose to the ace of clubs, the ace of hearts, and the jack and nine of spades. How can the hand be played so that only three triclcs are lost?

Solution to Previous. Contract Problem BY W. E. M KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League I had an interesting bridge discussion today with my good friend. Henry P. Jaeger, popular contract authority of Cleveland. We were discussing squeeze plays. I believe Mr. Jaeger has more squeeze plays in his files than any other contract authority. That has been his hobby. He expects to publish them in book form this winter. Today’s hand is one of his best. When East opens the queen of diamonds, the declarer can see that there is nothing to making his contract if the heart suit will break. However, if this suit will not break, he will have to depend upon some kind of squeeze play to produce his contract. Therefore Mr. Jaeger, in the North, decided not to win the first diamond trick. It was going to cost him nothing, since he still could get a discard of his losing three of clubs on the ace of diamonds, and

this might be the development of a squeeze play for him. The four of diamonds was played from dummy. West played the encouraging eight. Mr. Jaeger, in the North, played the deuce. a a a EAST played the six of diamonds, dummy played the seven. West went up with the king and North trumped with the deuce of spades. Mr. Jaeger now ran off the trump and the three good hearts, winning the last trick in dummy and bringing the hand down to the following: North held the seven of hearts and the ace and three of clubs. South held the ace and ten of diamonds and the ten of clubs. West held the jack of hearts and the king and nine of clubs.

. East held the jack and nine of diamonds and the queen of clubs. You see. East had been forced to hold the jack and nine of diamonds to protect himself against Dummy’s ace and ten of diamonds. Now the ace of diamonds was led from dummy and first West was squeezed. He could not let go : the jack of hearts, or declarer’s •seven would be good; therefore, he was forced to drop the nine of clubs. North threw away the seven of hearts and East followed with a diamond. But now the ten of clubs was led from dummy and declarer won the last two tricks with the ace and three of clubs.
