After business and law, the favorite occupations seem to be medicine, teaching, engineering, and banking, these four ranking fairly close, together. Eleven men, presumably remembering the original purpose of Harvard College, plan to enter the ministry. Five are planning to continue research in work begun in college. Only two men look forward to farming as a life occupation. One interesting feature is that of the two men who have chosen politics as their objective, one is a French and the other a Chinese citizen...

...been done, however. The best-known previous method is probably that of Edouard Belin (TIME, April 7, 1923), who, on Nov. 14, 1920, transmitted photographs from St. Louis to New York. The New York World owns the American rights of the Belin system, which it has improved in private research, but has not yet used commercially. The Belin principle is quite different from the A. T. & T. process. The photo graph becomes a relief map, the elevations and depressions causing the variations in the electrical current, instead of a beam of light. The Radio Corporation of America owns the Alexanderson...

...from the exhaust fumes, as well as the bothersome carbon deposits in the cylinders. The nature of the compound was not revealed, but the formula will be patented. When tested in the Pittsburgh Experiment Station of the U. S. Bureau of Mines, which is the chief centre of gas research in the country, a mixture of one ounce of the substance in five gallons of gasoline gave off 3.9% of carbon monoxide, as compared with 5.6% with the straight gasoline. Larger doses still further decreased the CO coefficient until between three and four ounces was reached, which Dr. Hutchison considers...
