Court of Appeals Finds Oleomargarine Law Unconstitutional

The People v Marx decision reverses a conviction and declares session six of the 1884 act unconstitutional. Judge Rapallo writes the opinion with full court concurrence, holding the law prohibits oleaginous substitutes for butter or cheese, stifling invention and infringing state and federal rights. Commissioner Brown notes most prosecutions involve butterine misrepresentation, citing pricing and market impact. The ruling allows oleomargarine makers to challenge deceptive practices while warning retailers of temptations to mislabel dairy products.

The Color of the Sun Blues Hint from Science Correspondents

A pair of Science correspondents discuss why the sun might appear blue rather than other colors. The author recalls early measurements of heat and light across the sun’s disk and notes atmospheric effects that temper solar radiation and create spectral lines. The central claim is that the sun’s body could be deeply bluish due to absorption effects in its atmosphere.

Colorless solar atmosphere reddens sun edges and clouds blue center

The passage notes a colorless solar atmosphere acting as a reddish veil with blue light at the sun’s center and red at the edge, producing a pale aquamarine center and garnet edge. It argues that reducing this atmospheric effect could raise inland temperatures, highlighting the practical importance of studying Earth atmosphere’s influence on the sun.
