Prof.

Stebbins has collected a great amount of data on the brilliancy of he suns corona during the eclipse and in the light of the sky data that he declares will require weeks for solution and for correlation, and which may reveal some hitherto unknown facts on the corona. Describing the circumstances that neariy marred a view of the eclipse, Prof. Stebbins told with relief of the ideal sky conditions that came at the last moment after the sky was covered with clouds until 30 minutes before the critical time of the totality." Prof. Stebbins journeyed to Connecticut with Prof. Jacob Kuntz, a famous astronomer connected with the University of Illinois.

Parties joined them at the observatory from Mt. Wilson. Harvard, and the University of Virginia. Though the total eclipse lasted nine longer at the Yale observatory in New Haven than in Middletown, the observatory in the latter ciiy was so placed as to permit the astronomers to place their telescopes ii.side the observatory. At Yale the instruments had to be placed outside, com piling the scientists to remain outdoors in subzero weather.

The period of totality here, said Prof. Stebbins, was 112 seconds. The sky was perfect at the last minute and our observations as planned were completely successful. But ater all it was a great piece of ck. Our program was to measure the total light of the corona and surrounding sky and compare it with prevous eclipses.

As a preliminary fsult the sky was found to be fcii times brighter tha eclipse of 1918. This was probably due to the diffuse reflection from the snow that covered the landscape. The indications are that the light of the corona measured at the minimum of the sun spots was no different in total light from that at the sun spot maximum in 191S.

Confiscation of Cars Is Proposed In Bill Autoists parking on lonely roads, or using their machines for illicit, cr immoral, purposes would be subject to arrest and the loss of their car through confiscation under a bill introduced in the state assembly to-aay by James D. Peterson of La Crosse.

The bill provides that any vehicle propelled by electricity, gasohre, steam, animal, or other power, which is used in the illicit transportation of liquor, or narcotics, or which transfers any person from one place to another for immoral purposes may be confiscated by authorities and the operator arrested. Petting parties and the practice of driving while under the influence of liquor are the evils against which the bill is primarily directed, according to Mr. Peterson. The measure is backed by the World's Purity League, he said, and is similar to a law which has already proven successful in Iowa. The criminal purposes to which the automobile is being adopted is being publicly demonstrated every day, Mr.

ePterson. said, and the people are already aroused to the menace confronting them. They see a drunken man dashing down the stret, disregarding pedestrians and occupants of other vehicles, destroy, ing property in their mad flight. He, with his life destroying jaugeraaut and his crazed brain is a one hundred per cent nuisance and a large percentage of automobile accidents are caused by either one or both driver? being intoxicated We have another evil demanding the attention of every American, the criminally used taxicab in our cities. In ever increasing numbers taxicabs are being manned with drivers who have a string of bootleggers, prostitutes, gamblers, and dope dealers.

The evils resulting from tho criminal uses of automobiles are crimes of vice, and with our present laws we are attempting to cure tho evil with laws adaptable only to crimes of violence. Failure has resulted all along the line. Paper Expert Rejoins Forest Product Laboratory Mr. Vance P.
