...Equal Rights Bill will not become effective until Sept. 1. Last week, however, Pennsylvanians were beginning to realize how hard it would be to evade it. Discrimination of any kind will be a crime, punishable by a fine up to $500. a jail sentence up to 60 days. Two Negro women marched into the William Penn Hotel Beauty Salon, swankest in Pittsburgh, asked for a "powder test." usually given free. A white beautician told them it would cost $5 apiece. They showed their money. She said they would have to have an appointment. They asked for one. She finally said...

...linked with German soil? Only the products of our native soil can be used to create German blood. Through them alone can delicate spiritual aspirations be communicated to the blood, and through it to the body and the soul. They are essential to our German being, which is without equal in the world because there is only one German soil...

Gruff, bad-tempered, wrinkled-faced, he has the voice of an angry bull and an equal amount of courage. But when it comes to wheedling buck privates who can no longer be driven, to using astute finagling to bring men into line, then Franklin Roosevelt has to rely on men like Mississippi's artful Pat Harrison and shrewd Vice President Garner...

...years ago that another brainy German, Max Planck, discovered that atoms do not radiate light continuously or in indiscriminate amounts, but in separate pulses and uniform quantities which were subsequently called quanta. Planck's constant, h, is equal to .00000000000000000000000000655 erg-seconds. For any sort of light the energy multiplied by the period of vibration is always equal to h. To a physicist grouping within the atom, h and the quantum mechanics which have grown up around it are as important as bait, hook & line to a fisherman...
