STUDENT ASSEMBLY
Al the beginning of assembly on
April 31, cards were distributed lo
unci on I Hie results ol the recruiting for t e a c h e r s during Easier va
cation.
In reply to a request from Barnard College to take definite action
against the Lusk bills now before
the Senate of the Slate, P r o f e s s o r s
W a l k e r and Hutchinson explained
these bills. T h e nn Americanism
of (he bills was brought out.
It
was said thai Lodge's idea of an
American is lo believe in America
and therefore in Americans, and to
provide
conditions, where
anti
Americanism will die out, T h e t w o
ways universal in achieving this curl
are force and discussion or education. Alt! otigh the hitler m e t h o d
is slow and exnensive, it settles forever. T h e expediency and legality
of the bills were discussed.
The
laws as they have been formed establish a s t a r chamber, which m a y
at will imprison without (rial. W e
no longer belong lo the lime of t h e
S m a r t s where such autocracy can
rule.
A motion was made in I he form
of a r e s o l u t i o n :
Resolved, T h a i
the s t u d e n t s of State College of
Albany, X e w York, in Student Assembly, e x p r e s s their objection to
the l.usk bills and petition the Governor not tn pass the same.
T w o Mvskania m e m b e r s for next
year were elected by the s t u d e n t
body.
P r o f e s s o r Douglas discussed the
p a r t - t i m e classes which will be
given as a course next year.

ADIEU
ANTICIPATORY
W i t h this issue of the " N e w s "
the new board takes c h a r g e under
the supervision and help of the old
board.
First of all, we, of the
1919-20 board, wish the very best of
success lo the new m e m b e r s and
hope they will really enjoy their
work next year as much as we
have. It will be work, bard sometimes, and the criticism won't alw a y s be constructive,
Xext year
will be the fifth a n n i v e r s a r y of the
" N e w s " and the spread of its use
and popularity has been g r e a t for
so short a space of time. W e hope
that the coming year will bring no
diminution of Ibis agreeable necessity and that the s t u d e n t s and
faculty will help these new m e m bers much and well in c o n d u c t i n g
o u r weekly oublication. Many errors, s o m e inevitable and some
m a d e t h r o u g h carelessness have
been forgiven and we thank the
leniency of the charitable.
Please
extend this good-will over next
year and help win the success that
the " N e w s " requires and deserves,
T h e senior m e m b e r s of the board

Greater X-ray Service—
through Research
T ? O R years after the discovery of
X X-rays it w a s evident that only
intensive research could unfold their real
possibilities.
Meanwhile, scientists of ths General
Electric Company developed the process
!'.V'
of making wrought tungsten. Thla
proved ideal as the target in X-ray tubes
and its use for this purpose soon became
universal.
Then further research resulted in the
development of an X-ray tube of a radiselfcally new t y p e - the Coolidge Tube—
with both electrodes of wrought tungsten ' ^ ' ^ ' ' " f
and containing the highest attainable "type r
C
vacuum.
jr-r'fy0
But the complication of high-vacuum

pumps made the new tube in large
quantities impossible. The answer to
this problem was the Langrauir Condensation Pump, utilizing mercury vapor
in its operation and almost automatic.
To meet the need for simple X-ray
apparatus during the wai—the G-E L a boratory developed the Self-Rectifying
CoolidgeTube, which made possible portable outfits at the front. The latest X-ray
outfit of this type is so small it can be
taken conveniently to the home or to
the bedside in the hospital.
Thus the Research Laboratory of the
General Electric Company continues to
serve, that progress in things electrical
may continue for the good of humanity.

HOOVER
Continued from Page 2
lie favors universal physical
training through extending the
work of-such organizations as the
l.loy Scout movement, He does not
favor military training under the
supervision
of army
officers'.
Hoover, as well as General Wood
and others of the candidates, stands
:or a budget system,
I j is altitude toward socialism is
sociologically sound. He regards
it as a European theory of despair
caused by caste and economic
wrong. Our social organization is
entirely different from that of
Europe, for we have a system of
open classes which is the basis for
equality of opportunity, VVc need
not fear socialism. He has saiitl:
" My emphatic conclusion is thai
socialism as a philosophy of possible human application is bankrupt.
He favored the League of Nations, though his own conception
of a league was far more simple
than that of President Wilson.
Mr. Hoover has handled big jobs.
VVc need a man of good common
sense and fearlessness as the head
of our nation for the next four
years. We should be glad that Mr.
Hoover will consider a nomination.
He is not looking for personal
honor; he docs not care for party
politics — he still wants to serve.
His motto may well have been:
" Live pure, speak true, right
wrong, follow the king—•
Else, wherefore born''"
A friend of Hoover's has said:
" Hoover has succeeded because he
would never touch an enterprise
that did not appeal to his imagination as a great constructive iob.
lie has always wanted to do things
in a new way, and he won't bother
with anything else. And when he
is set to solve such a problem, he
invariably comes back with a plan"
that scores little men to death bv
its comprehensiveness and that delights big men by its imaginative
appeal and its sound constructive
vision." The United States has a
great constructive job on its hands:
it appeals to Mr. Hoover's imagi
nation. Let us give him the chanci
