BUILDERS TOLD OF DANGERS lii EXCESS NOISES Construction League Hears Talk on Sound Control Devices. The dancers of excessive noise and new methods of sound control and elimination were described to members of the Construction League of Indianapolis at a meeting in th* 1 Lincoln last night by Harold R Berlin, president of the Acoustical Materials Assn, and an official of the Johns-Manville Corp Mr. Berlin pointed out that man is reacting to sound at every minute of his life, although often he may be unconscious of it. Nature has provided no natural means of shutting out sound As sight may be stopped by closing the eye, but in recent years, he said, science has provided many ways of limiting and eliminating sound and noise. "Asa result of these sound eliminating devices.” he .>aid, "we arc. acoustically speaking, living in a better world.” A motion picture, "Sound Waves and Their Actions." produced by the Johns-Manville Cos. in co-operation with the University of Chicago, was shown to demonstrate how sounds originate and how they travel. The film explained graphically howsound is a result of air vibrations, and demonstrated various means of determining the quality of sound waves. Acoustic Science Exact The ear, Mr. Berlin said, remains the best distinguisher of the quality of a sound and the greatest acoustical problem of architects today is in preserving the overtones of tue voice and music distinguishable to : the humap hearing organ. Almost every new invention of | modern times with the exception of the electric light has brought with it anew type of noise and the need for regulating all these artificial sounds :s becoming greater with each new achievement of modern inventive science. Fortunately for the well-being of the the science of acoustics now is as definite end exact as that of lighting, he added. Because of the new developments ■ of sound absorbing materials an i office today can make use of al! labor saving but noise making inventions without causing the strai. ‘he health of the employes that oi rwisc would result, Mr. Berlin said. More Energy Expended The psychology department of an eastern university has proved tha 13 per rent more energy is expended in a naisy rom than in an acoustically treated one. he continued. A reduction in errors of 42 per cent was noted in a Western Union telephone room after sound-absorbing materials had been installed. The medical profession. Mr. Berlin said, definitely has established that noise impairs the brain, increases blood 1 presure and impairs digestion. Now that such strides have been made in sound absorption these noises should not take such a toll, he indicated. Mr. Be:1m closed his lecture with a series of demonstrations showing how so and can be measured accurately and how sound can be decreased almost to the point of elimination by the use of rock-wool, hair-felt and other materials.
