Final check, weather device. Washington, D.C., Sept. 13. L.L. Stockman, also of the Bureau of Standards, Radium Division, uses a wave meter to check the radiometeorograph before attaching it to the parachute and the balloon. When the inflated bag breaks, which it usually does after several hours flying, the instrument is parachuted to the ground. Many times the instrument is found and returned to the bureau. The radiometeorograph contains two radio tubes, a miniature dry cell battery and devices which record and send the weather signals which, in turn, are recorded on a chronograph in Dr. Astin's bood [?] radio room.

Bureau of Standards puts ruge insulator through pressure tests. Washington, D.C., Nov. 30. H.L. Whitemore, (left), chief of the Engineering Mechanics section, National Bureau of Standards, and Dr. A.H. Stand, make a final check of the huge 1600[?] pound porcelain insulator before subjecting it to 2,180,000 pounds pressure in the Bureau's hydraulic jack. The insulator, one of the few of its size in existence, will serve as a base for a 640 foot mast at Radio Station WGY, Schenectady, New York. One of the insulators successfully stood the pressure to 800,000 pounds while the second broke when the pressure was boosted to 2,180,000 pounds. The hydraulic jack is capable of exerting 10,000,000 pounds pressure

Defense housing, Erie, Pennsylvania. Pre-fabricated sheets of asbestos reinforced with gypsum serve as an economical base for plaster walls and ceilings. These sheets, nailed directly to studs, also afford protection against heat and cold. A crew of fourteen men (ten lathers and four laborers) can lathe a four-unit building in a few hours. A crew of plasters moves in as the crew of lathers moves out. Although defense homes are speedily built, they are soundly constructed. Government inspectors keep a rigid check to see that all construction materials live up to government standards
