    He Gets Paid for Living in a Fog
I The more befogged Paul B. Wldlieska of Hollywood, Calif., gets, the
more money he makes. As fog expert for Sam Goldwyn studios, his job
is to “build” all types of fogs, from the "pea-soups" of London to the
hlgh-rlding haze of San Francisco, whatever a current picture may re
quire. A native of Budapest, he began his Hollywood career In 1914 as
a cabinet-maker. On a set one day an old-type fog of smoke and am
monia gases made his throat ache and his eyes water. As a result, he
devised the present method—ordinary mineral oil, forced through an
aperture under high pressure with a mixture of compressed air. By heat
ng, he can control the height to which his fogs will rise.

I BRISBANE
THIS WEEK
Two Birthdays
Mussolini Waiting?
Italy's Gold in London
Match This, Mr. Swope
Two Important human beings eel
ebrated their birthdays recently.
Henry Ford Was
seventy-two. If
you saw Him go
ing upstairs two
steps at a time
and guessed his
age, you would
say, at most, fif
ty-live.
Mussolini has
just celebrated
his fifty-second
birthday. You
may spend a
profitable three
minutes con
trasung tne&e
Arthur Uri.b.n. tw„ ,euders of
men in your imagination’s eye.
Ilenry Ford lias made millions of
people independent of the law of
gravitation.
History will tell exactly what
Mussolini has done. Ills test lies
in the future.
The London Times and Univer
sal Service announce a clash be
tween Ethiopians and Italians, 20
Ethiopians and 40 Italians, killed,
a stream supplying the Italian camp
turned in u new direction and the
Italians compelled to retreat.
Rome “has no Information’’ on
the incident.
Perhaps Mussolini, who knows
that war should supply only good
news, is waiting to add something
such as "Air bombardment of Addis
Ababa hns Inflicted swift retribu
tion for the killing of 40 Italians.’’
Italy has $100,(XX),000 In gold I
stored In London and can’t ‘get It.
Why cannot Italy get that gold?
England says to Italy. "When you
pay the money you borrowed In the
war, you can have your gold.”
Britons are practical. When they
lent money to Italy they said, “Send
along your gold; not that we ques
tion your honor, but as a mere for
mality.”
Too bad this simple-mintyl coun
try didn’t think of tnat when It
shipped $1(X),000,(XX),000 altrond. Per
haps we shall think of it next time,
more probably not.
The General Electric company
has developed, electrically, a tem
perature of 13,000 degrees Fahren
heit, announced as “hotter than the
sun’s 9,000 degrees.”
But 9,(XX) is only the sun’s exter
nal temperature.
Go to some distance Into the sun’s
Interior, where atoms are throw
ing off electrons to supply us and
other planets with heat nnd light,
and you would find a temperature
of 40,000,000,000 degrees centigrade.
When will Gerard Swope develop
that temperature artificially?
Thomas E. Dewey, chosen to fight
racketeering in New York, says In a
broadcast:
“The criminal underworld plays
no favorites. It preys on the pub
lic, on industry and on labor alike.
Organized labor has been one of Its
most recent and most tragic vic
tims. Many originally honest and
sound labor unions have been slow
ly but surely infected with the virus
of organized crime. Today certain
corruptive lenders operate as ex
tortionists both upon Industry and
upon members of their own unions.
An intelligent group of motorists
announce a “safe driving campaign
for August,” urging automobile driv
ers to consider safety, particularly
In.their own cars.
The safest thing would he to send
tens of thousands of cars now run
ning to the junk pile, get new cars
anu live longer. Modern tires give
miraculous mileage, but often they
iuok “good for ten thousand miles
more” when they have reached the
danger point.
In Yugoslavia 20 years ago Alex
ander Bogar, now living in Minne
apolis, Minn., killed a friend in a
tight. Wishing to make amends, he
offered to marry the widow. That
could not lie done. He lias saved
$15,000, working in mines, and now
offers tlie money to t he twenty-two
year-old daughter of the man he
killed. She Is poor and will accept.
Atonement by payment is almost
as old ns murder. There are still
countries In which crime may be
paid for In cash, the amount de
pending on the rank of the person
murdered.
George, former king of Greece,
will take the crown if GO per cent
of Greeks vote in his favor. He
thinks GO per cent enough. Once
crowned, George might be surprised
to find what 40 per cent of Greeks
could do.
The British forbade shipment of
arms from England to Abyssinia,
also shipments from England to
Italy. Annoyed, the emperor of
Ethiopia declines to provide special
guards for the British legation at
Addis Ababa. The British will send
their own guards. They have a way
of protecting their nations.

Tree* and Rainfall
There Is much controversy over
the question whether trees and other
heavy vegetation bring rain or not.
A great number of forcible points
are cited both for and against this
question. But we cannot help noting
with Interest a report from the Sov
iet government. In Russia a con
siderable area was planted with
trees In 50 foot strips 700 feet apart.
Rainfall In the area of these strips
was carefully checked "gainst rain
fall In surrounding untreed areas.
The results were astonishing. The
Increase In rainfall In the area bor
dered by the forest strips was from
13 per cent to 27.2 per cent. In the
treed areas the evaporation between
the strips was from 20 to 35 per
cent less thnn In the open.
