FACE THE FACTS!
Weeks Talks About Our Navy
 and National Defense.
Insists on Military, Commercial, Fin anclai and Industrial Preparedness Let Us Be Ready for Peace as Well as War.
By JAMES B. MORROW, In the Philadelphia Record.

nyONE of the Weekses, save John IN Wingate, the senator and the Massachusetts candidate for president-toiling as they all did among the granite humps of New Hampshire-wase ever noted for his ac- emulation of cash or property.
 They were farmers mostly, begin ming with Leonard Weeks, who, emi- grating from England in 1856, became the head and source of the family. Agriculture sternly practiced among tue embedded rocks and irremovable powders taught them to be resource ful and to keep at least one eye open to opportunity.
 So William D., the father of the sen ator, was a probate judge, and once essayed to be manufacturer. With the cooperation of neighbors, likewise alert and adventurous, he started a factory at Lancaster for making starch from potatoes.
 T will never forget the look on my fathers face," Captain Weeks told me, when, on a Sunday morning, just as we were leaving church, we saw men and boys running down the street and heard them crying: The starch fac tory is burning

RADIUM NEVER SEEN IN
 NATURE.

Radium is a metal and is described as having a white metallic luster. It has been isolated only once or twice and few people have seen it. Radium is ordinarily obtained from it's ores in the form of hydrous sulphate, chloride, or bromide, and it is in the form of these salts that it is usually sold and used. These are all white or nearly white substances, whose ap- pearance is no more remarkable than common salt or baking powder. Ra- dium is found in nature in such ex- ceedingly small quantities that it is never visible even when the material is examined with a microscope. Or dinarily radium ore carries only a small fraction of a grain per ton of material and radium will never be found in large quantity because it is formed by the decay of uranium, a process which is wonderfully slow, and radium itself decays and changes to other elements so rapidly that it is impossible for it to accumulate natur- ally in visible masses. Minerals that carry radium, however. are fairly easy to determine. One of them, pitch blende, as generally found, is a black mineral about as heavy as ordinary iron, but much softer. The principal radium mineral, carnotite, has a bright canary yellow color, and is generally powdery. There are other radium-bearing minerals of less im- portance.

There was no insurance--the pol icy had lapsed-and the fire swep away all of my fathers means and put a burdensome mortgage on his farm, two and a half miles in the country"
 If there had been a navy of a re- spectable size in 1881 John Wingate Weeks would now be a captain in stead of a senator. Nor would he ever have become a banker and thus have set at naught all the traditions of the Weeks family for self-respecting, capable and wholesome poverty
 And yet psychological analysis of inherited traits might show that the senator comes naturally by his talents for public affairs and finance. Any inquiry into his personality must in- cludc the Wingates, the chief of whom, John, an Englishman, emlgrated to New Hampshire in 1860.

Paine Wingate, for example the great grandson of John. was a member of the Continental congress and later a senator from New Hampshire.
 A Big Man Physically.
 John Wingate Weeks of Massachu- setts, in his name, therefore, goes back to the middle of the seventeenth cen tury. Perhaps his gifts are equally as NVhproxynr frysr | he has made good use of them. He is well-tO-do-but has less money. per. haps, than Is often represented-and Republicans fin Massachusetts have no- tified the country that he is their can. dIdate for president. If he is nomi- mated at Chicago in June, the main reason will have been that he is a business man, His candidacy, then, will be something entirely new in na- tional politics.
 In his measurements, Captain Weeks is large man. reasonable guess at his weight would be 250 pounds His stature, perhaps, is five feet and eleven inches. His eyes are gray and his manner Is frank and hearty. While at the naval academy he could slowly raise a 112-pound dumbbell above his head with his right hand. Then, kneel- ing with one leg, he could slowly raise an S7.pound dumbbell with his left hand More than that he could lower his hands to his shoulders and slowly and simultaneously put both dumb bells above his head the second time
 muscular youth, he was recon. mended by his principal to the "pru- dential committee" that called at the academy in Lancaster on a hunt of a teacher for their district school. The school was then closed-a group of =. ,.S-s' -Ls...sSz .L>A..Sz >ccs...-l ,tLS

 Hardly less remarkable than the swift transformation of England into a powerful military nation has been the silent upheaval that has placed the civil work and the industries of the workshops in the hands of women It has been estimated from official figures that there were fully 2,000.000 more women in active employ on March 1, 1916, than on the cores bonding day 12 months earlier. More over, the number is increasing week by week.
 It is interesting to note that the policy of restricting the sale of alco- hol which has been adopted so dras- tically in Russia and France, and less drastically, but still decisively, in the United Kingdom, is now to be adopted in Sweden. The Swedish government has ordered that no alcoholic drinks be served in restaurants before noon, and between then and three o'clock only with meals. There is still great deal to be done, but progress during the last IS months has been remark able indeed.
 According to estimates all bellig- erents in the European war have spent since the beginning of hostili- ties, about $40, 900, O,O00,O00. England's total expenditures for 1915-1916 to date, and not including the new loan of $2,000,00O,00O, are 6,677 million dollars. This is official. It is gener- ally believed Germany has spent about $500 million dollars, and France about 7,500 million dollars since the war began. England's expenditures for the army and navy and for muni- tions from April 1, 1915, to February 19, 1916, totaled about 3,748 million dollars.
