March Enjoys Deserved
Fame as Month of Wind
WASHINGTON, D. C., Apr. 17
March of all months in the year still
continues to hold the record for high
winds, although the btgges.. wind
ever actually measured blew across
Mount Washington on a January
day.
This record was made Jan. 11,
1878, when a velocity of 18(‘ miles
an hour was recorded on an official
anemometer there. But high winds
reach their greatest number in March
particularly in the country east of
the Mississippi river.
“How strong was the wind” is a
question often asked after a destruc
tive storm. The American Nature
Association says the answer is lia
ble to be misleading, for it is al
most always stated, in terms of speed
rather than force. The force of a
wind can be indicated acurately
by saying what pressure it exerts
in pounds per square loot upon a
surface at right angles to its path.
This pressure varies approximately
as the square of the speed.
Thus a wind of 20 miles an hour
blows about four times as hard as
one of ten miles an hour and a wind
of 30 miles an hour blows about nine
times as hard as one of ten miles
an hour.
In such storms as the one which
swept thru Illinois the uprushing
air attain a speed of 2,000 feet or
more a minute.

Princeton Inventor Fuses
Metals by Wireless Heat
TRENTON, N. J., Apr. 17—Recent
reports from England that the wire
less furnace was to be adopted by
the steel industry of Sheffield tor
use in melting solid metals, brought
to light today that Dr. E. F. Nor
thrup of Princeton, inventor of this
furnace, recently has perfected a
process whereby an alloy of copper
nickel and iron is made which pro
tects electrical meters from the de
fects of wide temperature variations.
The alloy is made in a wireless heat
ed crucible.
Dr. Northrup's invention consists
of a crucible surrounded by a cold
copper coil which, having no contact
with the crucible, heats the metal
placed inside by electrical induction
or radio. Inasmuch as heat is gen
erated only in the contents of the
crucible the metal is said to “melt
itself,” being vigorously stirred, mean
time, by the electrical current flow- i
ing into it. It is described as a ra
dio process with the distance span
ned only a few inches compared with
the miles of distance spanned in most
radio operations.
The invention of “permalloy,”
which gives the newest submarine
cables a capacity of about 1,700 let
ters a minute, is said to have been
made possible by the wireless furn
ace.
