HALF A CENTURY REPUTATIONS

PILE FOR THE

D. LE CLERG'S TIDRET

POWER FROM THE TIDES. SUCCESSFUL OFFICIAL TESTS.

The inventive zeniu

genius of Mr. Joseph Clarkson, the Hanchester engineer who recently perfected a wind turbine, haa now produced a tidal turbine, which, after experiments in the River Mersey,

emy likely to mark an important stage in the harnessing, of tidal and water power

LI

The apparatus consists of buckets placoch behind each other, and attached to an endless chain, which operates chain wheels fixed on horizontal shafts. The whole is fixed on a floating framework, the buckets on the lower side being in the water and carried along by the cur rent, while those on the upper side are out of the water and travel in the opposite direction. The movement thus imparts a rotary motion to the shafts, to drive a dynamo or charge an nocum- later.

The Industrial Power and Transport Department of the Board of Trade inter ested themselves in the invention, and experimental tests have been carried out aboard H.M.S. Conway, which lies at anchor in the Mersey. The tests were quite antisfactory,air. Clarkson said to a Press representative. "I calculate that my tidal turbine, placed in a tidal stream of only two miles an hour, will provide clectricity continuously for 24 hours a day at a cost of less than a penny per unit-much cheaper than from coal.

The invention is easily applicable to non-tittal streams," he went on,

The River Medlock, a small stream, "flows past a certain works in Manchester. The firm are willing to take the power during working hours, and for the rest of the. day allow it to be converted into elec- tricity for street or house lighting pur- poses in the vicinity at a cheap rate."

There are hundreds of streams n the country which have greater velocity than the Medlock," added Mr. Clarkson." saw one recently in Wiltshire which would give cough power to light the whole of a town built on its banks."

DANGEROUS THOUGHT IN

AMERICA.

EFFORTS FOR SUPPRESSION.

A New York telegram received in Tokyo says that according to a statement pub lished by the American Department of Justice, warrants have been served on some 4,000 persons in connection with the recent crusade against the Bolsheviks. Of the number 2,700 persons have been put under arrest on conclusive evid ence These will be deported sooner or

As regards the American citizens who were arrested, they will be handed over to the authorities of their respective, States, and will be additionally prosecuted! on the charge of embracing anarchism.

The Communist Party, which is an or- ganisation among themselves has ita hendatarters. in Chicago, and has been preaching the destruction of the American Government and capitalism as the first step of realising a resolution adopted by the International Communists' Congress. at Moscow in May 1919, in favour of the establishment of Labour rule. Pro paganda literature of all kinds, on which the party has expended some 820,000, baa already been seized. The judicial autho rities believe that the recent wholesale arrests have freed America from the don- ger of Bolshevism for the time being..

THE PAX BRITANNICA IN INDIA,

WHAT IT INVOLVES.

Colonel Yate commenced one of his paperches in the debate on the India Bill

with the following:

I certainly agree with what has been dasid just now that this is the most mo mentous Bill we bara had before us, Féertainly in this Parliament. It must be remembered that it concerng no 4.000.000 of people in Ireland or Scotland, but Fa15,000,000 of people in India, and it vitally, concerns the whole of our Eastern Empire. It affects, British interests in. Ader, along the Persian Gulf, Mesopor tamis, Afghanistan Calcutta, Singapore Shanghai and Weihaiwei, If once the <par“ „Britarinica is destroyed in India

you may say that the foundation of all those places is also destroyed.
