ARE WE CHANGING TO 1NDIANsq

Chicago Times-Herald.
SO Professor Frederick Starr Of the
department of anthropology at the Uni
versity Of Chicago thinks that the
American people viii eventually revert
10 the aboriginal Indians. He does not
inform US whether he regards this as
a paramount prospect or an immediate
menace. But his theory is that racial
differences are due to physical and
climatic conditions. and that if we only
live long enough under the same con-
ditions that made the original inhabit-
ants Of this continent Indians we will
take or the straight black hair. high
cheek bones. small eyes and copper
skins that constitute their distinctive
physical charms.
Professor Starr processes to base his
theory on careful investigations. He
has measured the features of some
5000 children of Pennsylvania Dutch
parentage and has found lengthening
of the face and broadening Of the
cheek bones lin accordance with the
characteristic features of the Indian
races"
With all due respect tc Professor
Starr we are inclined 10 the belief that
the ancestors of these Pennsylvania
Dutch children for generations and cen
turies before they came to America
had as high cheek bones as ever graced
the swarthy countenance Of the Ameri-
can Indian. Prints of the faces Of the
early Dutch settlers all show fine
development of the cheek bone. There
are immigrants landing on our shores
today from central Europe who have
as long faces and as high cheek bones
as any typical Indian.
The Hebrew face. from whatsoever
quarter Of the globe it halls. has great
er length than that Of the American
Indian. It has undergone no change
under differing physical and climatic
conditions through more than twenty
centuries. So It is asking too much
of our innocent creduli.y to ask us to
credit change in facial characteristics

in the less than three centuries the
Dutch have been In Pennsylvania.
Professor starr thinks that each con-
,inent has It's type to which It's lnhahl-
,ants must eventually converge. "Asla," !"
he SAYS, is the land OF the brown
and the yellow, Africa is the black
mans continent, The white man who
goes TO Africa must in time become
black, with the protecting jaw, the
coarse hair and backward heel Of the
native African races"
All Of which may be so. but It Is
net proven by anything within the linz
its OF approved scientific observation.
The Egyptian and the Ethiopian have
lived together under the same physical
and climatic conditions for centuries
back to the glimmering days Of re-
corded history and they have not con-
vergei. They are as distinct now, ex-
cent where they have intermlngled, as
in the days OF the Pharaohs.
Such changes as are wrought in racial
characteristics by change OF habitat are
SO slow as to be almost inappreciable
in the passing of centuries. The in
habitants Of America are undergoing
rapid changes that have nothing what
ever to do with the altered natural
and climatic conditions OF ;he country.
which is changing under Iheir ceaseless
activity far more rapidly than they. In
temperament they are growing away
from not toward the calm. stoical nature
Of the American Indian. Their voices are
not taking on either the soft cadences
or the deep gut:urals Of the Indians.
Their eyes are getting bolder and less
cunning than the Indians. Their skins
are getting whiter-perhaps it is the
soap-their hair lighter-perhaps II is
the bleach-than ,he aboriginal pos
SCISSOR Of this fair 'and.
In the matter Of cheek-but why
grow frivolous on a subject which can
not be settled for thousands of years
to come?
