ELASTIC THREAD LATE INVENTION Frenchman Perfects Ma chine for Secret Process Soaking In Water Fails to Show Flaws In Produc By MARY KNIGHT United Press Staff Correspondent PARIS. (UP) A Frenchman has Invent! machine for making elu tlo thread without the un of rub ber. He la little known Inventor with out funds and hla machine hai been patented by a well known French so ciety woman who remains anony mous. At a gathering recently at the sa lons of Roslna Parti, aeven modeli made of J. C, or Jaysee, thread were exhibited. The process Is, of course, secret, but the weaving of the thread Is done in such a way that it U high y elastic and returns to Its original shape. Experiments In stretching It and soaking It for 48 hours under water have failed to reveal any flaws. The greatest claim of the new thread la that It Is far more durable and practical. It contains no rub ber, which must, eventually, rot or cease to stretch. The Inventor and his backer anticipate a revolution In the weaving business and have copy righted their machine. The threads also are used for hand knitting and crocheting. Among the seven exhibited models made of the thread was a hand-knit sport suit, a woven afternoon dress and Jacket and two evening gowns, one done by hand and the other by machine. Stretching in all directions, the threads In cotton, silk or wool will be used for making clothes of all categories from Infanta' apparel to grandmothers shawls. Bathing suits are particularly applicable to the new threads and hats, shoes and accesso ries of Jaysee are foregone conclu s Ions. So convinced are the sponsors that they are willing for any teste to be made to substantiate their claims.

AREA Candidates and citizens who have bern feeling the public pulse the past ten days report that there Is considerable sentiment among voters of the north end of the county for the gubernatorial candidacy of Peter Zimmerman. They report the Zim merman sentiment Is not widespread, but that his followers are firm In the faith and vociferous and strong for the Zimmerman plan to redistribute the wealth, start a state bank and have the state take over the manage ment of the electric light plants. Several farmers, who are Qrangers, are campaigning for Zimmerman In a hand-to-hand manner. The Orange offlcally has nothing to do with their activity, It Is claimed, as the Orange Is not In politics.

Caster of Phoe nix, Democratic candidate for com missioner. Is getting ready to sally forth for votes. Col. B. E. Kelly. Democratic candidate for state sena tor. Is expected to lift his voice from the stump when things get warm. On the Republican side of tne fence, the county Incumbents have been quietly on the Job. not actively campaigning. County Judge Day and Commissioner Nealon will be busy all next month with the 1934 budget, and regular county business, and will not have much time for meeting peo ple. Sheriff Olmscheid la In the same boat. However, they may fln1 time to Join In the well-known "whirlwind finish." In normal political times like the present.

There was Marian "too honorable ...too practical" every. body said and there was Silver. And bolh with Lon on their minds. . . . Jeanne Bowman's previous serial showed a woman bravely fighting against great odds and winning. Marian Gordon is as plucky 'as Judith. Before the threads of this new story are untangled and smoothed out in a startlingly dramatic conclu ion, she has some good detective work to her credit plus the other things for which she has been striving. It's a swiftly paced story from beginning to end the kind Jeanne Bowman writes, the kind vou'll like. Starting Monday, October 1, in the MAIL TRIBUNE aAkt
