Sex Discrimination In Public Jobs Scored Make Super-Sensitive Cosmic Ray Detector General Electric Research Scientists Have Taken First Step Toward Putting to Work Mysterious Radiation From the Skies By JOHN J. A. O'NEILL Science Editor of The Eagle A simple super- sensitive detector of cosmic rays has been developed in the General the first step toward investigating mysterious rays to ascertain if The detector, which is in the same general class as the Geiger-Muller counters used in detecting traveling electrons, was developed by Dr. Chester W.

Rice. It is enclosed in a glass tube two inches long and three-quar- ters of an inch in diameter. In Partial Vacuum In the glass tube is a cylinder of nickel and along the axis of this tube extends a tungsten wire. Some of the air is withdrawn from the tube, leaving a partial vacuum. An electrical potential is maintained between the nickel tube and the tungsten wire which keeps the inclosed air in a very sensitive condition.

It is always just about ready to spill over, electrically. When a cosmic ray comes along it excites the air in the tube. When there are cosmic rays passing this More practically a non-conductor "and there is no apparent activity in the tube. The inclosed however, is in an electrical, state' which can be compared of a person just on the verge of hysterics -the least provocation brings immediate and very apparent results. The cosmic ray breaks down resistance of the air between the tube and the wire and there is a corona discharge between the two elements.

The corona discharge manifests itself as a bluish colored brush or halo and can sometimes be seen in radio tubes that have become defective. It is caused by the air becoming highly ionized. When the corona discharge takes place the ionized air becomes a conductor and electrical impulses pass between the cylinder and the wire. These electrical impulses picked up by a wire and led are, radio amplifier. The impulses are weak, after they have been amplified each impulse, corresponding to a cosmic ray, produces a sound in the loudspeaker like the crack of a rifle.

By counting these impulses count is made of the cosmic rays. With this small tube the count averages about eight per minute. In using this counter it is inclosed in a protective lead covering four inches thick. The purpose of the lead covering, states Dr. Rice, is to shut out the effects that might be due to radioactive material.

The only known radiation that can get through the lead is the cosmic and this radiation gets through without the least difficulty. The source of the cosmic rays is unknown. There are two schools of thought on the subject. According to one these rays are the birth cries accompanying the creation of new atoms in outer space, and according to the other they are the death rattle of atoms that are being annihilated in the stars. Comparatively immense amounts of energy would be released in either process and the cosmic rays, because 'of their great penetrating power, are believed to be possessed of tremendous energy.

Neither is it known whether the cosmic rays are a form of radiation similar to ordinary light but of an extremely high frequency, or whether are electrons traveling at enormous velocities, Either theory explains satisfactorily most of the facts that are known about these rays. The impression one gets from listening to the cosmic ray counter is that they are electrons that shoot through the tube of the counter like a bullet going through a glass bottle and immediately healing the hole made in going through the glass. A little packet of radiation would produce the same effect. We usually think of radiation as a continuous process, like light emitted from a lamp, but when one quanta of the radiation passes about every 12 seconds it is not so easy to visualize it as a of light. the present forme the General Electric scientists are shooting in the dark in the matter of utilizing the cosmic rays.

They will pass through more than 10 feet of lead, so it will be no simple job to reflect Or refract them like light rays, perhaps impossible. This may prove to be their most useful property.

Bound astride a chair, they were shot to death from the back at Fort Bravetta on the outskirts of Rome. Five hundred black-shirt militiamen, with daggers gave the Fascist war cry, (To us!) as the shots of the firing squad rang. out and each bullet-riddled body sagged limply in the bonds that held it.

The execution took place in the co courtyard of the fort. Bovone alone accepted the offer of religious comfort. In the prison, during the night, he made his confession to the prison chaplain and received holy communion. Sbardellotto emphatically rejected the priest's offer and said he was not concerned with life now, or hereafter. I have already given," he said.

There were no witnesses other the group of militiamen and threw officials. The Fascist militia lined up in a hollow square, leaving open the side where the chair was placed, a few feet from the gray stone wall. Twenty-four of the militiamen made up the firing squad. In each case, before the fatal volley was fired, the death sentence was read in loud voice. Both went to their deaths stoically, Sbardellotto had refused to request a royal pardon.

Bovone made the request, but it was refused. Walking the death chair, Bovone repeated: "I beg forgiveness of all and forgive those who have done me harm. I am glad to die in the Christian faith." He prayed constantly until the bullets shattered his spine and crashed into the back of his head. Sbardellotto, however, said: "I ask pardon of no one, not even of God." As the second volley was fired by the firing squad, the platoon comshouted "For Benito Mussolini!" after which the squad and the 500 guards gave the Fascist cheer: "Eia! Eia! Eia! Alala!" Raskob to Speak At Victory Fund Democratic Meet Shouse Also to Talk at Chicago Caucus--Reports on Raising of $1,500,000 John J. Raskob, Democratic National Committee chairman, and Jouett Shouse, executive chairman, will be the principal speakers at a victory fund caucus to be held at the Congress Hotel, Chicago, next Friday, three days before the convention, it was announced today at Victory campaign headquarters in the Empire State building.

The purpose of the caucus is to receive final reports from the 48 State Victory campaign chairmen on the amount of money raised by their respective committees toward the party's $1,500,000 preparedness fund for the coming Presidential election. John W. Davis, general chairman of the nation wide drive, will preside at the meeting which is expected to be attended by outstanding party leaders from all sections of the country, including many of the avowed and potential candidates for the Presidential nomination. The Victory Fund Caucus will be one of the first two Democratic Convention activities. It will be held at 10 o'clock in the morning at the same time that members of the Democratic National Committee also are scheduled to meet at the Congress Hotel to make up the temporary roll of delegates to the convention and complete arrangements for management of the convention.

Many Object to Bills You see it was this way: The Albany Legislature had passed bills calling for the surveying and laying out in orderly form of Coney Island and the other places mentioned, and there were certain parties who were stubbornly opposed to these public improvements, setting up the claim that the legislation on the subject constitutional. "Folks who held the opposite opinion consulted Mr. Sullivan, who, as you may have guessed, was a distinguished counsellor at law, with A wide experience and a head jammed full of legal lore, bearing just such matters as this. Mr. Sullivan argued the cases and presented his arguments so forcefully and so logically that the decisions just naturally came his way, and the improvements that transformed the sand dunes into the nucleus of a world-famous Summer resort went through with a rush.

He attended public school for a year and then entered New York University, from the law school of which he was later graduated. He also improved his knowledge of the law by working in the office of D. P. Brainard, a lawyer with a national reputation. Friend of Kinsella When Thomas Kinsella was editor of The Eagle Mr.

The people have tired of toying with them. In normal times playthings are good enough, in crises like the present one, foiks want "real" governments, and real government horsewhip. Clear across Europe there is one big sign: WANTED--A Dictator! Sweden, however, has not yet arrived at the "critical times." She still wants her Riksdag. The Riksdag has two houses, both elected on the basis of proportional representation. At present, there six parties.

The in power-the so-called Liberals-has only 28 seats out of 230. It sits pretty between 100 members on the right, Conservatives and Farmers; another 100 on the left, Socialists and Communists. Elections will be held in September. This year it is expected the parties may combine to form two blocsthe bourgeois against the rian. But I doubt if the Communists will deign to fuse with the Socialists.

They are real Communists, while the Socialists are that in name only. SWEDEN'S SOCIALISM FEARS TO MEET OWN ISSUES FORMER Conservative pre- about the Swedish Socialists.

U. S. Civil Service Commissioner Jessie Dell Attacks Tendency 1 to Displace Women With Men-Questions Fairness of Law Bitterly denouncing the women with men in the business Service Commissioner Jessie M. "purely and simply sex She charged further "to-do about married women" is just an excuse to strike a blow at women generally, and she attacked current "protective" labor laws for women as measures to lower the standard of women in employment. Commissioner Dell addressed the American Alliance of Civil Service Women at the American Women's Association Clubhouse, 361 W.

57th Manhattan. Dr. Anna Hochfelder of Brooklyn, assistant corporation counsel and head of the Alliance. presided. "I believe that all this to-do about married women is just an excuse to strike a blow at women generally," Commissioner Dell said.

"I believe that labor laws said to be for the protection of women do not really protect but lower the standard of women in employment. "Why should to be 'protected' by labor standards ditfrom those for men? Why should women want anything but equality? In fact, they don't, 'Real Protection' "A real protection would be a recognition of the right of women to an equal chance for the higher jobs which they do not have either in government or private business. And to say that a married woman shall not be employed by government it her husband is so employed is nothing short of absurd. "It would be as sensible to say that two brothers, or two sisters, or father and son shall not be employed by government. The right of the individual to open competition is altogether lost sight of.

"I believe that no government, Federal, State or local, has a right to say that an appointing officer may specify a man for a particular job which can be done equally well by a man or a woman, and I believe further that the question of marriage has nothing whatever to do with the matter. 'Ask Equal Chance' "I do not ask for any special consideration for women, but I do ask that women be given an equal opportunity with men and that if conditions arise under which dismissals must be made, the loss fall upon men and women alike. "To deny employment to women the ground of marriage places a penalty upon marriage, and, therefore, is opposed to good public policy." Fights Ruling Commissioner Dell questoned the legality of the Federal' Civil Service ruling which allows the head of department office to specify whether he wants men or women employes. "I shall oppose this provision so long as there is breath in my body." she said. "There is only one just ground for employment and retention in the Government service and that is the ground of superior ability." The law of 1870 which served as a basis for this ruling, she said, provided that "women may, in the discretion of head of department, be appointed to any of the clerkships therein authorized by law upon the same requisites and conditions and with the same compensation as are prescribed for men." This law, Commissioner Dell contended, was "simply intended to give legal authority for the employment of women," and was not intended to be a basis for barring women from certain offices.

"If the law of 1870, which is used to bolster discrimination against women, continues to obstruct woman's progress," she said, "some one will unquestionably take the matter to court, and if the question ever reaches the Supreme Court of the United States, As I earnestly pray it will, we may expect to it settled for all time, and I have that will Appearing before the Manhattan Appellate Division, Samuel Seabury today branded the "sweetness and light" decision of Supreme Court Justice John Ford as "unjudicial tirade, inappropriate to one in judicial station," Seabury asked the court to reverse the Ford decision admitting to the record attacks on him that Seabury characterized AS "indecent and scandalous."

WILLIAM O. RIORDAN DINED William O. Riordan, president of Stern Brothers and former vice president of Abraham Straus, the department store, was tendered a testimonial dinner by the executive association of the latter store in the Waldorf- -Astoria last night. Mr. Riordan resigned his connection with Abraham Straus two weeks ago to assume his new office.

I. Gainsburg was master of ceremonies at the dinner and Raymond L. Mahar headed the committee on arrangements. Justice Ford at this time, Seabury told the court, showed no hesitation in agreeing that the Flynn affidavits attacking him were "scandalous and indecent" and suggested that he, Seabury, call the attention of the Bar Association's grievance committee to the part of Flynn's attorney, Abraham H. Wilson, in preparing them.

"Then an extraordinary thing happened," said Seabury. "In his later decision Justice Ford said that Flynn in his testimony completely flattened the testimony of Louis H. Willard. Flynn's testimony was given two days after Justice Ford heard the motion. I didn't submit the testimony and the other side, as far as I know, didn't submit the testimony.

All I know is that the show that the testimony was 'received at Seabury argued at length that the weight city inquiry's evidence was on the side of Willard's story that Flynn, through political persecutions, about his ruin, which Willard brought, blamed the suicide of his wife.

Seabury, in conclusion, told the court that the only question before it was whether or not the affidavits were scandalous and whether or not Wilson should be censured for submitting them. Wilson was interrupted at the beginning of his argument by Justice Merrill, who inquired as to the authorship of the affidavits. Flynn's attorney said he had written them, Wilson defended his affidavits on Seabury's alleged "sympathy" for Willard in a controversial matter. and declared that to strike them out would "emasculate" Flynn's defense. The court.

The Brooklyn Assemblyman deprecated inferences that the exhibit copies might be available to the Mayor in preparing his defense. "We might want to file a minorIty report, you know," said Steingut, He added that he had saved the complete testimony record for this purpose, and that the exhibits bring his collection up to date. Mayor Walker was reported to be drafting his defense independent of the Tammany "war board." and it was indicated at City Hall that he will be ready to file an answer promptly, when and if, the Governor asks for one.
