...classical equations for electron motion with new differential equations similar to those which describe the wave motion which constitutes light and sound. Thus the atom is conceived as a positive nucleus wrapped in a throbbing field of negative electricity. To expound these ticklish ideas to U. S. scientists slim, smallish, pleasant-spoken Dr. Schrodinger journeyed to the U. S. few years ago, lectured at Caltech and other universities in excellent English. Born and educated in Vienna, he was professor of theoretical physics at Stuttgart and Zurich before joining the faculty of the University of Berlin in 1927. This year...

Impatient to have his $10,000,000 investment represented, he nominated his son, no railroader and hence not subject to the I. C. C. Son Robert Loree is a vice president of Manhattan's Guaranty...
...generations the House of Morgan, George Fisher Baker's First National Bank and the Vanderbilt sons and grandsons have been at Central's throttle. But early this month a new force entered the Central when 74-year-old Leonor Fresnel Loree, the bush-bearded president of smallish Delaware & Hudson, triumphantly announced that he had bought 10% of Central's stock (TIME, Feb. 6). Last week he was trying to persuade the I. C. C. to let him have an official seat at Central's council table. Central's president, Frederick Ely Williamson, a Yaleman like...
