Jaa. 1. '(AP) Senate lobby iavestlgst orw today heard a year eld speech by Joseph R. Grundy, republican senator from Pennsylvania ex pressing the view that president Hoover "doesn't know anything at all from experience what leg islation means." The . speech was made at - a meeting of the national associa tion of wool manufacturers before Mr. Hoover was" lnangurated and before Grundy was appelated to the senate. Grundy was express ing concern over the future or the tariff bill, at that time Just get ting started in congress. Questioned later by newspaper men about his remarks on the president, Grundy replied: "If it's in the record, I said it. At that time it was my apppaisal of things." The speech said In part: . "My concern Is not lessened at all by the knowledge that the president-elect, while he to a very line fellow and the state that -iare the honor' of coming from fcare him almost a million major ity to show its. confidence in him, lias never had any leglalatiTe ex perience. "He never ran for office before. He never ran for even the office of dog catcher. He doesn't know anything at all, from experience, whit legislation means. His mind runs on many other sub jects than economic subjects." Grundy has announced that he is' a candidate for re-election to the senate. The republican pri maries in Pennsylvania are in . May, followed by the general elec -tion In November. fcranklin Hobbs of Boston, president of the wool association, who testified today before the committee, said he did not share in this Tiew of President Hoover nor did his association. Grundy also was Quoted as say lng,, after calling attention to the republican victory In the 1928 presidential election: "Since the election what has taken placet Our president elect has slipped out of the coun try and has gone down to South America on other kinds of busi ness. He won't be back here un til January, and then he plans to. somewhere In the south, sojourn for a while." Grundy was reported to hare added that women "never knew anything about the tariff.

It was developed by Professor K. O. Law rence of the physics department of the university, and by Frank O. Dunnlngtoa (shown in photo), graduate student working with Lawrence. The two men have taken more than 250 views of a 20, 000 volt spark with their machine. The experiment conducted with the camera disclosed that in its brief life a 20,000 volt spark Is hotter than the son and 10 times as bright.

If the Hartman meter records for the two months 720 cubic feet or less then they will be charged the minimum for the two month period or $2.40. If the estimated bill of $1.39 was paid then they would have to pay only the difference between $2.40 and $1.89 or 61c. In a good many eases the estimated bill will probably ran a little higher than one-halt the total for the two months; In other eases it may run less than half. In any event the water company will not get for the two months aay more than it would hare, had the January bills been rendered on actual readings. One of the Urges te audienc which has ever come to greet the Moroni Olsea players was that whleh eaaae for the splendid per formance of "The Makropoulos Secret" Friday night In the Fox Elsiaore theatre.

Jan. 21 (AP) The new Spanish government nn der General Damasco Berenguer capped its first day's work today by settling the strike of univer sity students. It was this strike which ghve the first Inkling of the crisis which resulted in the downfall of Primo de Rivera. The Duke of Alba, new minis ter of education, was given cre dit for the settlement. He adopt ed a conciliatory policy and or dered prison authorities to re lease all student leaders who had been detained by the dictatorship. He also conferred with the university officials and announ ced that classes would be resum ed early next week in the nation al university of Madrid. Chief Leader of Revolt Pardoned The new government also de cided to pardon Antonio Maria Sbert, a student leader who was long the storm center of the dif ferences between Primo and the university men. Sbert led the Madrid student demonstrations against the dictatorship in the spring of 1929. He was barred from all universities in Spain and banished to Mallorca by govern ment decree in April of last year. The students ever since have been demanding withdrawal of this punishment and the an nouncement that the new govern ment would pardon Sbert was hailed with satisfaction in stu dent circles. Jose Lopez Rey, president of the student federation, and Mi guel Mistral Martinez, one of the leaders of the strike who was im prisoned a week ago, were among those who were freed today. They said they and their classmates were anxious to get back to their" studies.
