JERUSALEM.—(J. T. A.)—An ap-
peal to the Palestine government that
all Druze men who cross the Palestine
frontier be extradited, was made to
Lord Plumer, High Commissioner of
Palestine, by Sultan El Atrash, leader
of the Druze rebellion.
The request was sent by special mes -
senger to Jerusalem.
The French authorities in Syria
have asked the British Palestine com-
mand for permission to transfer their
troops via Palestine territory through
MauHuh.
The requests of the Druzes and the
French were refused by the High Com-
missioner, it was declared.

CHICAGO.—(J. T. A.)—Profes-
sor Albert A. Michelson, holder of the
chair in physics at the University of
Chicago and the only American phys-
icist to win the Nobel award, an.
nounced that he will make another
eflort to measure the velocity of light, [
at Mount Wilson observatory, Cali- I
fornia, next summer. Apparatus on !
which he is now working, he believes,
will make it possible to guage the ,
speed of light to within five miles, or
perhaps one mile per second of abso. I
lute accuracy. The present velocity,
universaly accepted, as measured by I
Professor Michelson, is 186,300 miles I
per second. This, the great Jewish
physicist believes, is within 20 miles,'
or one ten-thousandth of 1 per cent
accurate.
Professor Michelson's last measure-
ments were made in 1924, between '
Mount Wilson and Mount San An-
tonio, 22 miles distant, by projecting
a powerful light through a narrow
slit on a mirror which revolves 30,0001
!
times a minute. His new measure-
ments will be made between stations
100 miles apart. If his experiments
show that the velocity of light in-
creases proportionately with the de-
crease of the earth's velocity, and
hence with the shortening of our time
units, as he expects they will, an-
other step will have been made in
proving the correctness of the Ein-.
stein theory of special relativity.
Einstein based his celebrated
theory upon data supplied by Pro-
fessor Michelson in his measuremental
of the velocity of light traveling in
different directions.
