Here the cameras widened the seope of their view to take in the secretary and equerry, who, in turn, gave their names and swore it was the Prince who spoke on this, the tenth day beâ€" fore the Day of the Feast. Then the cameras returned to the close view of the Prince and he continued in the language of his people:â€" say I am dead or dying. Many of vou will know meâ€"others will know these who are with me. . ." in the Prince‘s bedroom. He was propped up in bed with his secretary and equerry by the head of it, the portable lights full on them, and the microphone in the Prince‘s hand. The cameras were first focussed on the Prince alone, giving a close view of him from the waist up, dressed in his full royal robes. He lifted the microphone and spoke slowly and clearly, reading from the paper his secretary handed him. "I, the Prince and Rajah of Napaâ€" lata, and eldest son of my father, speak this message to my priests and people that they may know me and my voice and give the lie to those who "I should suggest, your Highness," said the Secretary, "that you invite several of the »ress to be present and see the film being made. They will cable the news of it, and it should help to allay any doubt in Napalata of it being genuine when the film arâ€" "Then I‘ll let the editor know, and I daresay he‘ll get the permission all right. If not, you can count on it we‘re mum." The editor did get it. He and other editors of the London press had been doing a good deal to oblige the Prince in the way of publishing such paraâ€" wraphs and pictures as were offered, and having them cabled to Indian corâ€" respondents in the hope that the peoâ€" ple of Napalata might be creditably informed their Prince as alive and certain to recover, A polite request that publication should be permitted of whetever news the Prince had about film matters, was conceded by the Prince after a few words with his equerry and secretary. ives He listened carefully to what folâ€" lowed, gave immediate assurances that he‘d be delighted, that it could be arranged at once, and a mobile reâ€" cording outft would be on the way almost at once. The business finished, he turned to the press man. "I don‘t know if you got the gist of what was said," he suggested. "But if you gathered that we‘ve been asked to send a recording outht to a certain wentleman, you must please treat is as confidential." "Sounds as if there might be a story in it," said the press man. ‘Can‘t you let me use it"" But the manager was emphatic that he could notâ€"at least, not without permission, although if that could be got, he had no objection so farâ€"as the| fArm was concerned. th Oh, yes, I have it nowâ€"the Pru;te ;( Napalata." « . .

"Certainly the best," agreed Stefan. "It will cause more delay to find anâ€" other machine and another pilot, and delay may make it too late for the Day of the Feast." "Then I go to the aerodrome," said Max, rising. "I‘ll want the fast cu} and driver." "Or better," amended Michel, "if you can get at it secretly in the shed for a few minutes, could you loosen or remove something that would make it wreck in starting or alighting?" Max smiled derisively. "Easily," he boasted. "If you‘d like the pilot wrecked with the machine, it hi simple," ’ "We have described the machine," Stefan reminded him, "and the agents will know to watch for it." "Let me cripple it here," suggested Max. "I have planned how I can get into the shed; or if it is out on the ground, I could empty a pistol into the engine, driving past in a !:atJ car." _ "This pilot will fy faster and in longer stages alone," said Michel thoughtfully. "Our master will have his agents watching at the different air ports, but they will not know the pilot as they would the Prince." "But here is the vital point of the whole matter," said Stefan warningly, "There must be no possibility of the film arriving." "It will start the fire," said Michel complacently, "and our master will have the advantage of being ready for the blaze." & pe c ol ie Sm e enat ce Stefan rubbed his hands joyfully. "Then when they have to say the film has not arrived, it will be thought true it was a cheat and dared not be shown,." ‘ _ "And the cables can go as we proâ€" posed," said Michel thoughtfully. "We let our master know what has hapâ€" pened, and advise him to report that the film is a cheat, made by an actor as the priests will readily detect when they see and hear the imposture." ‘ "And we know the man an(! maâ€" chine waiting ready to take it," said the man Max calmly. "It is merely that we have to stop him instead of the Prince‘s arrival." "Exactly," said Stefan, and there was an answering chorus of approval. "And to do that it must be sent by air," cried M_ichel eagerly, & "Because he has made the Proclaâ€" mation," he ent on, "he intends it to be spoken by the Talk Film on or before the Day of the Feastâ€"" s ol s t on Ovetereude "Wait, wait," said Stefan angrily, stilling the babel of talk. "First we have the clear meaning of this film j being made." One of the Indians there broke in that it could not be held a legal proâ€" clamation, another questioned this, and Stefan again had to shout at them for silence. ‘"Yes, that the Prince is not yet allowed by the doctors to fly to India," said Michel, "so he will send this film instead, in the hope it may serve." ’ Next morning, the story was blazed over all the leading pictures with plenteous illustrations, and even beâ€" fore then it had flashed over the cables to India with the Prince‘s speech given verbatim, and an acâ€" companying picturesque account of the scene in the bedroom.

Within the watery cloud oxygen seems to be withdrawn from the burning mass while heat is absorbed by the @roplets. Thanks to his nozzle, Stein can vary the size of his spray and the fineness of the cloud. It is this adâ€" justability that makes it possible, he says, to precipitate fumes, smoke and explosive dust, and even to take the sting out of poison gas. As might be supposed, Stein did something more than just turn the hose on an oil blaze. He is the in« ventor af a special nozzle which autoâ€" mizes the water and spreads it out into & huge globular cloud. In a few seconds he put out dense smoky flames that arose from about three tons of burning lubricating oi) and gasoline. In the intense heat the fine spray of water became a cloud of steam, Water Puts Out Oll Fires The fire chiefs of Jermar;> recently held a convention in Magdeburg. They saw oll fires put out with chemical foams, powdered sodium carbonate, car» bon dioxide snow and cerabon tetrackâ€" lorideâ€"all measures tried and trug, After the applause had died away, out stepped Chief Stein of the home fire department. He would extinguish oil fires with nothing but water, he anâ€" nounced. And he did. In deciding to follow European prac tice Judge Steinbrink remarked that "new concepts must beat down the crystallized resistance of the legally trained mind that always seeks pro cedent before the new is mccepted inta the law," and ventured to say that is the case before him he was concerned with "scientific facts already ascer tained." It may be that Judge Steinbrink x as moved ‘to make the order by the stand taken last year by the Society of Medi. cal Jurisprudence, which advocated a legal recognition of the Landsteiner test, now resorted to by many of tha courts in Europe. Thus in Denmark, Germany and Italy a saurderer who claims that the blood on his handkeyâ€" chief is his own is put down as a liar if it proves to be of a different type. On the other hand, he is not neces. sarily believed if it matches that in his veins. | If blood of peop‘le who never saw each other can be matched, it follows that the blood of a mother and child is amenable to the same process. In the case that came before Judge Stein. brink matching proves nothing. But if it turns out that Betty Beuschel‘s boy has blood of type A, whereas the alleged father and mother have blood of type B, a judge and jury will not fail to draw the necessary conclusions, The Landsteiner is an exclusion test and therefore always negative. "Orders Bloog ‘Te:t in Paternity Suit" read one of the recent headlines, The paternity in question is tha; of Betty Beuschel‘s 2â€"yearâ€"old boy, whose father is alleged to be Jacob Mangoâ€" witz. Manowitz denied the impeach. ment, whereupor Justice Steinbrink ordered the blood of mother and child to be tested in accordance with prin. ciples which were discovered by Drs, Landsteiner _ (Rocketelleâ€" Institute) and Jannsky long ago and which were so far developed by Landsteiner that he recelved the Nobel prize in 1930, Landstelner‘was originally concern. ed with the danger incurred when blood is transfused. Sometimes the recipient of another‘s blood died, No one knew why. Landsteiner and Jann. sky found that human blood can be classified into four major groups, to which two subgroups have recently been added. Blood of two different groups clumps or agglutinates and then comes death. Transfusion can be successfully agccomplished only if the blood of the donor matches that of the recipient.
