With the gradual increasing: of transmitting voltages up to nearly one-quarter million volts, it is in¬ teresting: to note a new voltmeter developed in England for the meas¬ uring: of high potentials. The new voltmeter is based on the principle employed by Lord Kelvin, and sub¬ sequently developed by M. Abraham, the eminent French investigator, of the attraction of two oppositely elec¬ trified conductor, protected by guard plates. The Instrument can be built for measuring pressures up to 200.000 volts. The change¬ over from one range to another Is immediately effected by altering the distance between the platea. An Important feature of thete voltme¬ ters is that air being uaed exclu¬ sively as the dl-electrlc, they give Identical readings with direct cur¬ rent or alternating current of any frequency, which Is not the case with electrostatic voltmeters de. pending upon the use of condensers. ATLANTA RADIO PROGRAM HEARD One of the broadoaatlng stations re¬ ported heard In Washington is WSB. Atlanta Journal, Atlanta. Qa.

The weather and government reports are transmitted on 485 meters, whereas the concerts are sent on the usual 1«0 meter wave. A feature of the program la the 10:46 p. m. schedule, which should be read¬ ily tuned-in, locally. C. W.

VALUE OF METRIC SYSTEM EXPLAINED IN NEW VOLDME Author Advocates Uni¬ versal Weight and J Measure Standards. "WerM MetHe NtaadtrilMt^l eesapfled by Aulftr Dntry. (World Metric BtaateHisatloa Covtdl) In the past few month* thanks to radio, "meter" haa bacoma a house¬ hold word. During tha war wa haard "ceruimeter" applied to this gun and that; wa got quite used to that word alao. But tha man who went to Franca cot a batter Intro¬ duction to tha metric ayetem ot weights and measures. and even the machine shops and factories that made overseas material had to uae the metric system and became quite at home with these simple units. The sclenoes ions **o joined the ranks of the vaat majority of th.- world In ualng a system of weight* and meaeurea that need no con¬ version tablea. Now there Is Issued a book. "World Metric Standardisation, an Urgent Issue," which explains why the me¬ tric system should be adopted bv the United States and the British! Empire. As Its Introduction states "Tills book deals with an advene** which is of immediate timely impor¬ tance. It deals with the *master standards' of the world, upon w* all the world Is rapidly standardis¬ ing. These standards are the three metric units.meter, liter, gram. 1* is urged that the units of weight* and meaaures of the United States of America, and of the British Com¬ monwealths. be brought into accord with these invariable standards This Is the true 'standardisation of standards.' for when this advance is achieved in the United States o* America and the British Common¬ wealths. all the world will be upon the uniform metric basis." The testimony of a truly amaslng array of advocates of the metric system have been assembled in this hook by Aubrey Drury. published by the World Metric Standardisation Council. Manufacturers, merchants, engineers, architects, scientists, doc¬ tors. pharmacists, army and navy officers, bankers, lawyers, clergymen, educators, authors, srtlsts. editors and high legislative officials are quoted as favorable to the adoption of the system. Edison. Roosevelt. Pershing, Carnegie. Hammond. Gompers are only a few of them. James Watt, called the world's greatest engineer. In addition to be¬ ing the Inventor of the steam engine and having the electric unit, the watt, named after him. invented and intro¬ duced to the public the basic plan of the four world decimal unlta of meas¬ urement. now known as the dollar, meter, liter and gram. Watt's ideal system is now nearly achieved: only his native people, the British and the Americana, do not use It. The reasons given for the adoption of the metric system are nearly as numerous as the pages of the book, which is quite frankly a summary and argument for the gram-meter- llter system. There Is a note of warn¬ ing in two passages in the book: "In the one year of 1321 more hu¬ mans went over to the metric units for future tranaactlons than now use the diverse 'British* units in all the world! Japan and Russia in that year confirmed their adoption of the deci¬ mal metric system." "Lack of world metric standardisa¬ tion is to the United States of America a grave national peril." OK REVIEWS x WANT TO SEE CANNIBAL LAND? MARTIN JOHNSON BLAZES WAY Tell* All About Dainty Feasts on "Long Pig," And Fills Book With Striking Pictures Taken on Adventure.

"Airi»>a« Toner," bj Aaae 1m »H(wlek. (Honghtoa Mlf- «1» Cmmpmrnj.) This is a curious piece of work. One starts out by bating It for the asinine sweejtnees of the heroine. And then one sees the working out of a novel idea: out of wicked goodness (and the paradox la only comprehensible to those, who know Adrlenne Toner). It is the conclusion of the book that Impels the reader to quote by r*fl*x action Ibseji's clear-cut com¬ ment, "People don't do such things!" Roger Oldmeadow seemingly is the only member of a group, most¬ ly family, with a couple of friends added to make up the cast, who understanda Adrlenne. The rest of the Chadwick family worships her for her goodness, her sweetness, her unselflessnees and generosity. And, of course, Roger underesti¬ mates her. The novel is the story of the wreck Adrfenne's ideas of freedom bring upon a very ordi¬ nary English family, and the way. after all, the problems work .out comparatively satisfactorily, and Adrlenne. after divorcing her hus¬ band. marries Oldmeadow, who Anally comes to know her. and they live happily ever after, or at least so one. Is led to suppose. Adrlenne Is made a saintly person, even in her errors, and the average reader will always dislike her. In spite of the author's trying to flx her up in the middle, the first impression remains. There are some interesting blta of characterization In "Adrlenne Toner." some pungent observations, and some very searching comment and philos¬ ophy. But it is a book that may be classed in the no-man's land of popular literature; It move* too slow¬ ly for light Action, and Is too search¬ ing for the casual reader. Miss Sedgwick (who Is Mrs. Basil de Selincourt) is too trivial a writer and psychologist to handle the char- actera and sltustions she creates ef¬ fectively. There is too much stain¬ ing for effect, for phraseology, a cer¬ tain frultleas effort for directness, and the volume doea not Aow smoothly. Altogether, ft Is an Interesting ex¬ periment. but not altogether success¬ ful aa an Interesting book. thrill of a lifetime.

The tribes of the New Hebrides form one of the last outposts of the Stone Age.

BRITAIN DEVELOPSNEW VOLTMETER

. .

With the gradual increasing: oftransmitting voltages up to nearlyone-quarter million volts, it is in¬teresting: to note a new voltmeterdeveloped in England for the meas¬uring: of high potentials. The newvoltmeter is based on the principleemployed by Lord Kelvin, and sub¬sequently developed by M. Abraham,the eminent French investigator, ofthe attraction of two oppositely elec¬trified conductor, protected byguard plates. The Instrument canbe built for measuring pressuresup to 200.000 volts. The change¬over from one range to another Isimmediately effected by altering thedistance between the platea. AnImportant feature of thete voltme¬ters is that air being uaed exclu¬sively as the dl-electrlc, they giveIdentical readings with direct cur¬rent or alternating current of anyfrequency, which Is not the casewith electrostatic voltmeters de.pending upon the use of condensers.

eesapfled by Aulftr Dntry. (WorldMetric BtaateHisatloa Covtdl)In the past few month* thanks to

But tha man whowent to Franca cot a batter Intro¬duction to tha metric ayetem otweights and measures. and even themachine shops and factories thatmade overseas material had to uaethe metric system and became quiteat home with these simple units.The sclenoes ions **o joined theranks of the vaat majority of th.-world In ualng a system of weight*and meaeurea that need no con¬version tablea.Now there Is Issued a book. "World

Metric Standardisation, an UrgentIssue," which explains why the me¬tric system should be adopted bvthe United States and the British!Empire. As Its Introduction states

"Tills book deals with an advene**which is of immediate timely impor¬tance. It deals with the *masterstandards' of the world, upon w*all the world Is rapidly standardis¬ing. These standards are the threemetric units.meter, liter, gram. 1*is urged that the units of weight*and meaaures of the United Statesof America, and of the British Com¬monwealths. be brought into accordwith these invariable standardsThis Is the true 'standardisation ofstandards.' for when this advanceis achieved in the United States o*America and the British Common¬wealths. all the world will be uponthe uniform metric basis."The testimony of a truly amaslng

array of advocates of the metricsystem have been assembled in thishook by Aubrey Drury. published bythe World Metric StandardisationCouncil. Manufacturers, merchants,engineers, architects, scientists, doc¬tors. pharmacists, army and navyofficers, bankers, lawyers, clergymen,educators, authors, srtlsts. editors andhigh legislative officials are quotedas favorable to the adoption of thesystem. Edison. Roosevelt. Pershing,Carnegie. Hammond. Gompers areonly a few of them.James Watt, called the world's

greatest engineer. In addition to be¬ing the Inventor of the steam engineand having the electric unit, the watt,named after him. invented and intro¬duced to the public the basic plan ofthe four world decimal unlta of meas¬urement. now known as the dollar,meter, liter and gram. Watt's idealsystem is now nearly achieved: onlyhis native people, the British andthe Americana, do not use It.The reasons given for the adoption

of the metric system are nearly asnumerous as the pages of the book,which is quite frankly a summaryand argument for the gram-meter-llter system. There Is a note of warn¬ing in two passages in the book:

"In the one year of 1321 more hu¬mans went over to the metric unitsfor future tranaactlons than now usethe diverse 'British* units in all theworld! Japan and Russia in that yearconfirmed their adoption of the deci¬mal metric system.""Lack of world metric standardisa¬

tion is to the United States ofAmerica a grave national peril."

even in her errors, and the averagereader will always dislike her. Inspite of the author's trying to flx herup in the middle, the first impressionremains.There are some interesting blta of

characterization In "Adrlenne Toner."some pungent observations, and somevery searching comment and philos¬ophy. But it is a book that maybe classed in the no-man's land ofpopular literature; It move* too slow¬ly for light Action, and Is too search¬ing for the casual reader. MissSedgwick (who Is Mrs. Basil deSelincourt) is too trivial a writerand psychologist to handle the char-actera and sltustions she creates ef¬fectively.
