CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Feb. 24.-(AP) --The first extensive measurements of the sizes of fog particles have, been announced by the Massachu- setts Institute of Technology. These measurements, never before obtained, may reveal some new pos- sibilities in the use of colors to ren- der signals visible at greater dis- tances in fogs: The particles are from two twen- ty-five hundredths of an inch in diameter down to one twenty-five The smallest are only a little greater in diameter than the wave length of red light. In scientific measure they are from one to 20 microns. Fog Particles 'Trapped*. They are measured much like stars in a night sky by a microscope arranged by Henry G. Houghton, at the institute's Round Hill experi- mental station on the estate of Col. E. H. R. Green. This microscope focuses on a flat glass side across which the fog drifts. Slightly greased, the glass slir'rsace catches the particles ads fly paper traps insects. On the glass are ruled fine lines of the micron scale. The light is so S'-ed tnat it illuminates the fog and the scale but leaves the glass dark. Like Moons and Stars. The effect is like having a night sky ruled with lines (the magnified Tolstoy Luncheon: The Tolstdy League is arranging a luncheon for Countess A.

The diameters are read at a glance by looking at the lines on or between which the star-like fog droplets lie. One hundred or more fog parti- cles can be measured in 10 minutes. It is found that every fog has particles of many sizes, but that one size usually predominates. This predominant size, however, changes with different fogs. Light Pen'etration Varies. As the particles increase in size the best light transmission shifts more and more to red. In fogs of very small particles green light is superior. In the majority of fogs it has been found that colored lights have no appreciable advantages as re- gards fog-penetration. Fog cannot form in perfedtly clear air. There must be particles of some sort upon which the mois- ture can gather. These particles are dust of various kinds. Most sea fogs are caused by in- visible grains of salt whipped into the air from spray -particles so fine that opce free of the water they float in air indefinitely. Strangely enough, humidity in fogs is not always 100 per cent. There is one reading of 90 per cent during a Round Hill fog.

Geribany, Feb. 24. -(A')-A new figure has appeared among the "generals" of Germany's militant organisations and in him staunch republicans believe they have found a match for the mili- taht fascist leader, Adolf Hitler. He is Karl Hoeltermann, new head of Germany's vast republican "army of peace," the reichsbanner. He* is a powerful factor, too, in the "Iron Front," the movement de- signed to pep up republican ranks and recruit a reserve force for the "schufo," or reichsbanner "storm troops." Hoeltermann's task is primarily) that of "field marshal." The politi- cal end is attended to by repub- licans like Paul Loee, president of the reichstag, Rudolbh Breitscheid, and others already prominent in public life. Thus Hoeltermann will not have to pithis oratorical powers against Hitler's. But he wasn't picked for speechmaking, and if Herr Hitler's strength is oratory Hopltermann's is silence. His North German re- serve suggests inner certainty and firmness. Unlike Hitler, too, he disdaines all outer trappings; his quiet man- ner is a reflection of the feeling that intellectual conviction is more decisive a factor in a man's make- .up than emotional response. Indeed, Hoeltermann described himself and his movement as "con- servative," saying: "Human nature is fundamentally conservative. People don't wanlt fights or wars. They're generally herded into them. "The ccinservative elements of the republican movement are the basis of our strength.
