There will be less excuse for icing misled this time, however, for over at the State Department in the Office of Munitions Control series of earnest conferences are going on. Foreign propagandists are registering in accord with a law which has just gone into effect. Others are seeking expert advire as to whether they have a register.

If they do under the law, they must set down the names of their employers, the character of their activities, what they are paid, and what their duties are. The intent of the law is to enable the American people to tel. who is feeding them what propaganda. data is open to all. Failure to register subjects the agent to a fine up to $1000 and a jail term up to two years.

There some doubt as to JUST, how completely any such law can reveal tne in- icr cogwheels of the propaganda machines, for deviousness is usu- illy their' first characteristic.

His activities hen; were one of the largest factors that led to establishment, of the Czechoslovak Republic which is now so gravely threatened. In the Washington of 1915 you couldn't walk down the street without stepping on agents, avowed or secret, amateur or professional, of foreign governments.

Thev state that any one of the following fillings are palatable and "Bacon, 6 strips; salt butter 2 teaspooniuls; salt, one-quarter teaspoonful; salt butter, 2- teaspoonfuls in chopped hard-boiled egg; ham, 1 to 2 ounces; Swiss cheese, 1 ounce; boneless salt codfish 1 ounce with raw scraped apple; smoked salmon, 1 to 2 ounces." The above suggestions for 'fillings' for sandwiches will help parents to make ihe little necessary to prevent child getting tired of the straight salt sandwich. All the suggestions in helping to prevent bed wetting should be followed faithfully. 1. Plenty of liquids till noon, then very little till 4 P.M., when child is given a last drink of water or milk. For supper only dry foods are given--no fruits or cereals.

2. After child is in bed, ths? salty srmuwich is given. 3. After two months, some cereal, fruit, or vegetable is added to the evening After another two months the size of the salt sandwicn is decreased by one-quarter at intervals of two to thre3 weeks.

LEAGUE STENO SWIFT Paris (UP)--Fastest shorthand- writers at this year's national shorthand championships held in The Trade Convention Circuit plays 52 weeks a year and for salaries which are su-prisingly good. Most jobs include meals, because the show usually goes on right before or after the dinner. One of the most successful of the "TCC" stars is Lee Childs, who gave up a Broadway career for steady work. She was a member of the "May Wine" cast and also took part in One day an advertising manager friend asked her to put together a bit of a show for a group of business men who were engaged in a conference. He asked her to gather a cast that could act out a little gem called: "Cooperation on the 1938 Sales Job and How to Tie in the Local Dealer." And so she did.

Miss Childs played the auto circuit for a year before sh; switched this year to the coal circuit. The cast of one of her recent shows included Mildred Harris Chaplin, former wife of Charles Chaplin; Eugenie Rawls, who played in "The Children's Hour" and understudied Sylvia Sidney, and other well known actors. appeared in a show for a coal company called "Tying in With Coal."

The Plantation Club, which stands on the site of the old and famous Cotton Club, decided to bring together the three most! celebrated stars who had ever appeared there.

Americans are calling the heavy electron "bary- Lon," the first part of the word 3eing Greek for "heavy." But Europeans, with Prof. Niels Bohr, cf Copenhagen, as chief protagonist, are using "yukon" in honor of the Japanese physicist, Yukawa, who postulated the existence of the particle before Drs. C. D. Anderson and Seth Neddermeyer, of SCIENCE TODAY NEW COSMIC RAY OR "YUKON?" DAVIS Pasadena, discovered it in 1937.

In discussion at the recent Corn- bridge meeting of the British M- sociation, one of the Americans present observed that yukc-n was a rather cold name for particle hotly discussed and that AJns- ans might protest. The heavy electrons seem to make up the major portion of the penetrating particles resulting from the cosmic radiation-. Scientists are flying high into the atmosphere and setting up apparatus deep in tunnels in order to study them. With some 240 times the muss sf the ordinary electron, basic- unit of electricity, the heax'y electron is lighter than the proton, the nucleus of the hydrogen atom. It may very well be triplets, for it would be logical for it.

Strangely enough, it lives longer when it goes fast owing to the relativistic change in time. One of them by great good luck was photographed at Pasadena coming to rest. Heavy electrons are supposed to disintegrate into electrons and neutrinos.

And neutrinos are particles postulated but not yet discovered.
