General Marshall Testifies on Lend-Lease Bill

Shoveling Coal Is Routine Job
For Engineering Faculty Men

By CHARLES THATCHER
Inasmuch as keeping a stoker filled
s .usually the job of a janitor, it is
rather unusual to find two University
professors engaged in that task-and
diking it!
But that is precisely what Profes-
sors R. C. Porter and C. W. Spooner
of the mechanical engineering depart-
ment are doing in their research ob-
servation of how difterent kinds of
coal burn in standard domestic stok-
ci'rs.
Running almost continuous tests,
the two men are intent on determ-
ining what makes one kind of coal
better adapted to stoker use than
another similar kind , , meanwhile
keeping a close watch for other fac-
tors, such as temperature or draft,
which effect the efficiency of the
furnace.
Tests run anywhere from eight
hours to three or four days, and are
madeito simulate actual household
condition as much as possible. For
the most part test coals are obtained
from Michigan mines or from local
dealers. many of the latter sending
samples upon which they have re-
ceived consumers' complaints.
A new stoker resting directly on
a scale, and floatingfirebox have
made the once complicated process
of testing coal fairly simple. The

coal can be weighed right in the stok-
er, and as the fire-bix is attached
directly to the stoker. the weight of
clinger, ash and coke remaining when
the test is completed can be easily
ascertained.
Attention is also paid to the amount
of air passing through the stoker in-
to the furnace, this amount being var-
ied from time to time to determine
the point of maximum efficiency of
operation.
During the testing operation' sam-
ples of flue gas are taken for anal-
ysis, and the temperature and pres-
sure of the furnace and of the stack
are recorded. The temperature of the
stack is partcularly important, as its
regulation will conserve heat and will
eliminate chimney fires. Furnace
temperatures determines the amount
of clinker formation, also of impor-
tance.
The amount of steam generated
during the test is also measured, be-
ing passed through a separator to
keep back any unvaporized water,
then condensed, and finally passed
through a water meter which records
the amount generated.
When the test is finally completed,
all the data obtained mustabe care-
fully studied to determinet as accur-
ately as possible the efficiency of the
furnace.

With Chairman Sol Bloom (center) of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, General George C. Mar-
shall (left), U.S. Army Chief of Staff, and Major General George H. Brett (right) Assistant Chief of the Air
Corps, went over the provisions of the Lend-Lease Bill before testifying in private. Marshall told reporters
after his testimony that he believed Great Britain could defeat Germany with the American aid contem-
plated under the Bill.

Editor's Note: This is the third of
of a series of articles written with
the cooperation of Prof. Charles M.
Davis of the geography department on
"The Selective Service and the Uni-
versity." Today's article deals with the
problems involved with the filling out
of questionnaires.
By A. P. BLAUSTEIN
Although many draftees through-
out the country are experiencing a
great deal of difficulty in filling out
their questionnaires, Prof. Charles
M. Davis of the geography depart-
ment, student draft adviser, reports
that only a few of the questions are
causing any inconvenience at all for
most members of the University.
'Occupation?' Troublesome
The only blank in the question-
naire which has troubled students
most, according to Professor Davis,
is the one requiring the graduates
and undergraduates to give their oc-
cupations. They do not know, he said,
whether the word "student" is desired
or whether a position in business
hi h h h,, u held srhould b e men- E

able at the time the draftee enters
camp.
Several students have been bother-
ed recently by the problem of turning
in questionnaires late. As many of
them reach the student only after
they have been sent to his home,,
it is often impossible to return ques-
tionnaires to the draft boards on the
d,,te they are due.
Solution Explained
The best solution. Professor Davis
believes, is to fill out the question-
naire as soon as possible and send it
away accompanied by the envelope
it came in (which will have on i
the date it was sent) and a letter of
explanation. If the student thinks
that his questionnaire will be very
late, Professor Davis advises the
mailing of an immediate message
asking for special permission.
Various personal questions which
have come up because of the Selec-
tive Service Act will be discussed
in a subsequent article.

Compositions by Mendelssohn, Han-
del, Chopin and Beethoven will be
heard in a Faculty Concert which
will be presented by Prof. Mabel Ross
Rhead of the School of Music at
4:15 p.m. Sunday in the Lydia Men-
delssohn Theatre.
A graduate of the University with
an Artist Diploma in piano in 1904,
Professor Rhead spent several years
studying with Moszowski in Berlin,
with Swayne in Paris, Lhevinne in
Berlin and New York and with Schna-
bel in Berlin.
During her concert career she spent
several seasons as soloist with the De-
troit Symphony and St. Louis Sym-
phony Orchestras.

The army, after the draftee has
already been sent to camp, uses its
own system to allocate different men
to different branches of the ser-
vice. After giving them a "stream-
lined Alpha" test, newcomers at mili-
tary posts are asked various ques-
tions concerning outside experiences,
hobbies and the like. From that infor-
mation decisions are made relative
to placing men in different special-
ized army positions.
These decisions are made both on
