GOVERNMENT AND SCIENCE

The meeting in Washington Of the National Academy
of Science emphasizes the rapidly increasing volume OF
valuable scientific work done through government
bureaus
Not many years ago the government scientists simply
standardized and tested discoveries and inventions.
Within recent years these experts have been taking the
initiative in many lines The most recent example is that
of Dr. Walter Rittman, whose remarkable experiments
which may double the output of gasoline and permit home
manufacture of dyestuffs have attracted worldwide
attention
AT the Bureau of Standards at many bureaus of the
Department of Agriculture, at the Bureau Of Mines,
where only recently device for the use Of rescue
workers in mines was perfected and at naval obsewa
tories pioneer research work has been carried on and
actual invention accomplished. In many other govern
ment branches like the Smithsonian Institution the
Patent Office and the Library of Congress- are registered
the most recent Investigations
In this day of interest in the work Of foreign govern
ments Germany is pointed out a nation where govern
ment interest in scientific work has developed to high
degree In the United States the government interest in
scientific research is scarcely less.
This scientific activity on the part of the government
has drawn many scientists of world note to Washington
Such men as Dr. Alexander Graham Bell DR.. Charles E.
Munroe and Dr. Emil Beriner have done much of their
valuable work there.

THIS COUNTRY NEEDS NO GREAT ARMY

This idea that the United States requires large
military establishment for protection from enemies
abroad is evidently being advocated by those who hope
to profit by such policy. Any American with common
sense enough to think knows that invasion of this
try with its millions of abeboded men, who with thirty
days drilling would make the best soldiers in the world
fighting their soil and in defense of their homes
and property is out Of the question Volunteers who know
what they fighting for always did make better soldiers
than trained warriorsthe history of the worlds wars
proves that point beyond the question of doubt The
ability to go through certain evolutons because of
practice counts for little when opposed to who
shoot straight think quickly and have the courage of
their convictions of what is right back of every voley
.1ey discharge
Few persons, however will oppose the policy of main
tanning strong naval establishment for the protection
of our commerce. or the proper forcaton of our prn
cpa seaports. Plants for the manufacture of modern
artillery also necessary but the fact that the Euro
pean belgerens depending largely upon this country
for their arms and ammunition shows that we are already
amply supplied in this respect No other country except
Germany is better prepared at the present time to equip
an army in the field with arms and munitions.
This talk about maintaining great military establish
ment in times of peace is evidently inspired by selfish and
not patriotic motives,
