Horizontal containers, not much lasger than conventional bushings, enclose the interrupting mechanisms. Thes» containers are mounted on verâ€" tical central supports which, in ad: Only ninetyâ€"six gallons of oil per pole are stated to be required by a breaker with an interrupting rating of 1,500,000 kilovolt amperes, at 138 kilovolts, compared with about 1,700 gallons per pole for a conventional breaker of an equ#fvalent interrupting rating, Finish Of World‘s Greatest Air Race _ Unusual features are embodied in a new high voltage, large capacity oil circuit breaker for electric power lines, Radically different in design, each singleâ€"pole unit of the new breaker is shaped like a cross in conâ€" trast to the tankâ€"like construction of conventional equipment, Among the claims offered for the new equipment, which was developed by the General Electric Company, are higher break, ing speeds and short arckink times and the use of very little oil. Speed and Economy Claimed For Power Line Device NEW CIRCUIT All that is usually expected of a water tower is resistance to wind pressure and strength enough to carry the load of water. This is good enough in regions where earthquakâ€" es are unknown. In shaky regions of the earth another type must be designed. What this is Ruge has still to discover. What do the records show? Water tanks are not built to resist earthâ€" quakes. Paradoxically enough, modâ€" erate strengthening does more harm than good. The first thing that Ruge does is to make a scale model. A. 60,000 gallon tank about twenty feet in diameter and weighing half a milâ€" lion pounds becomes a miniature imitation five inches in â€" diameter, weighing five pounds, and . holding two and a half quarts. The slowest artificial quake that can be proâ€" duced shakes such a model much too rapidly. Ruge allows for that. The artificial quakes are produced by shaking a table on which the model is mounted. All the motions are, magnified and photographed. When an earthquake rocked Long Beach, Calif., last year, elevated water tanks were damaged, some so badly that they had to be taken down. Parts of the city were dry. Here we have the inspiration for the studies that A. C. Ruge is makâ€" ing at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to discover how water‘ tanks should be built.

Mr. Llioyd George thus has warm supporters as well as fierce assailâ€" ants in the controvery he has started. It is thought in some circles here that nothing is to be zained by reâ€" calling such grim events as those to which Mr. Lloyd George refers. On the other hand the view is also widely held that such light as he is now endeavoring to supply may help prevent the recurrence of such happenings. "It is,‘ Mr. Lloyd George says, "one of the bitterest ironies of war that I who have been ruthlessly asâ€" sailed in books, in the press and in speeches for ‘interfering with the soldiers‘ should carry with me as my most painful regret the memory that on this issue I did not justify that charge." l He supports this allegation with voluminous extracts from â€" official records. He brings forward also personal evidence so detailed and so well documented as to be caulculated to keep official apologists busy for a generation endeavoring to disâ€" prove his thesis. \ Mr. Lloyd George finds in parâ€" ticular that the whole series of military operations which were conâ€" tinued for a number of months in 1917 in the quagmires of Passchenâ€" daele in France were "one of the blackest horrors in history." 1 Londonâ€"Mr. David Llioyd George, Britain‘s chief "elder â€" statesman," has followed up recent sharp critâ€" icisms of his late naval and civil colleagues with an equally outâ€" spoken indictment of British genâ€" erals, in the latest volume of his lively "War Memoirs."
