R. B. Sosman, * Kearny, N. J.—Mr. Sweetser brought out that in certain blastfurnace slag compositions a change of one or two tenths of a per cent may be quite significant. That is true not only of blast-furnace slags but of other compositions as well. We have all been up against the necessity of having to plot out equilibrium diagrams of this kind on a big enough scale so that we could actually use them, the

SERRATED yielding, commonly called the Portevin-Le Chatelier effect, is known to occur in a wide range of alloys where the moving dislocations are considered to be locked by the diffusion of solute atoms to them. From the work of Cottrell,1 an approximate relationship between strain rate, E, dislocation density, p , and solute diffusion coefficient, D, giving rise to serrated yielding is: e =Dp

CYCLONE thickeners are "hydraulic centrifuges" designed either to produce a maximum practical separation between the water and solids of a feed slurry or to classify the slurry solids according to particle settling rate. The possibilities of utilizing the thickener to "close" plant water circuits have been investigated.

THE tense international situation prevailing in the postwar period, and the outbreak of actual hostilities in Korea, directs attention to the status of United States reserves of strategic and critical materials for war. Geologists and mining and metallurgical engineers are particularly interested in this problem, since, with a few important exceptions, almost all of the materials on the official list of strategic and critical materials for stockpiling (see top of page) are metals and minerals.

For the benefit of those of our members who are considerable holders of securities, but owing to their isolated situations are not in close touch with the metropolitan market and current quotations, we are publishing two very interesting graphs, showing the course of the bond and stock markets in New York over a long period. These graphs are furnished through the courtesy of the financial department of the New York Tribune.

THE determinations of the specific gravities of a number of samples of lead produced in Missouri, which form the subject of this note, were undertaken with the view of ascertaining if any approximation to the purity of such leads could be reached in this manner. The results would seem to indicate that, whatever value the method may have in the case of the crude and more impure

The gravimetric determination of titanium in irons and steels is extremely difficult. It may be well, therefore, to call the attention of those members of the Institute who are interested in the chemistry of iron to a colorimetric! method, which I have slightly elaborated to adapt it to the case under consideration. Schön * discovered that hydrogen peroxide produces, in certain solutions of titanic acid, a very intense color similar to that of ferric

The need for studying brittle fracture is defined; the main elements of this type of failure are explained; and the mechanism at crack initiation is outlined. Various design and maintenance practices which can preclude costly downtime caused by unexplained machine failures are proposed.

The in situ high frequency electrical conductivity and permittivity of Colorado oil shale were recently measured. The measurements were made at 45 MHz (45 million cps) by transmitting from one borehole to two receiving boreholes, all boreholes in line. A differential measurement using the received signals was used to calculate the conductivity and permittivity.

Radial layout's guiding principle is the grouping under one roof of the operating processes which require continuous supervision. Separate treatment sections are isolated by outside stockpiles fed with radiating conveyors. Hence the name "radial" layout. Many plants are designed with "linear" layout where successive operating stages are dotted like beads along a string of conveyors.
