Science Asks What Will Happen When
Doctor Wall Will Explode An Atom
LONDON, Jan. 28.—Scientists here are waiting—the nervous ones with
apprehension—to see what will happen when the atom is exploded.
Dr. T. F. Wall, of the mechanical and electrical research department
of Sheffield university—the man who is trying to bust up the atom—de
clines to predict results. I —
“I don’t, know what will happen,”
he said, frankly. “I’m going to wait
and see.”
Other predictions range from the
commonplace to the fantastic. Some
say yiere is no reason to think any
thing unusual will occur. Others
profess to believe that disturbing the
atomic status may tear London into
fragments and give the entire earth
a jar.
Meanwhile, Dr. Wall is calmly
continuing his experiments. He hasn’t
busted an atom yet. But he’s on the
way and confidently expects to suc
ceed.
Heretofore the atom has been sup
posed to be the ultimate particle of
. matter—that is, composed of no oth
j er combination of matter, and, there
j fore, indivisable. Everything else
; we know is made up of various com
binations of atoms. All other matter
can be disrupted chemically or elec
trically into its component atoms.
But beyond the atom no scientist has
ever transgressed and until recently
few had ever even thought, seriously
of such a venture.
The principle of atomic disinte
gration upon which Wr. Wall is
working is—briefly and eliminating
technicalities—by releasing sudden
ly a vast electrical discharge to
j shatter all the atoms within reach.
One set of theorists then fear the j
I worst. They argue that since all
! matter is composed of atoms the dis
! ruption of everything else will take
' place.
They think the ‘release of atomic
energy,” or in other words, the
shooting of atoms full of hop and
turning ’em loose to run wild, may
mean the crumbling up of houses
and trees and mountains and things.
But so far no one has sought an
ijunctio to prevent Dr. Wall’s ex
| periments. He built what he calls
ia solenoid and shot 44,000 amperes
| of juice through it. The solenoid,
■ not the atoms, busted. He has built
a bigger one, of steel, that, he says,
cannot break. He is going to run
80,000 or 100,000 amperes through
this one, and increase the magnetic
intensity of the apparatus from 1,
000,000 units to 10,000,000.
If that doesn’t jar the atoms loose
Dr. Wall will give up—and if it
does, well, we’ll all see what we’ll
see.
YOUTH CLAIMS HE IS
EXPERT BALLOT FIXER
NEW YORK, Jan. 28.—Dubbing
himself the “original” ballot fixer,
George Rosken, 28, election clerk
who yesterday declared the releection
of Nathan D. Perlman to Congress
was illegally accomplished by himself
yesterday announced that for ten
years he had conducted a lower East
side school for ballot fixers.
His pupils, he said, came to him
from Boston, Philadelphia, Jersey
City, as well as from all parts of
New York. In addition, he assured
newspapermen, to teaching his pu
pils the expert use of his “magic
ring” for the surreptitious marking
of ballots, he personally cared for
politicians seeking office in tightly
contested districts. His occupation,
he asserted, had netted him more
than $30,000. The ring, he said, held
a cleverly concealed bit of lead with
which any person with adequate in
struction and practice, could mark
ballots under the very eyes of poll
watchers without fear of detection.
