To Be Sent across the Atlantic

e AsseelArKp PRgss,

NEW YORK, Dec. 11.-With the
sailing of the United States navy coll
lier Caesar from New York about De-
cember a with Christmas cargo of
food, clothing and medicine, for ref
ugees OF Armenia and Syria, Red
Cross officials estimate Americas con
tributions towards relieving the suf-
ferings of war touch the S50,000,000
mark.
The Caesar carries 100000 tons of
food and clothing and $4,000 worth
of hospital and surgical supplies. In
cluded in her cargo are 1000 cases of
condensed milk for babies, $4,000
pounds of beans, 10000 pounds of
sugar, $4,000 pounds of whole
wheat, $50 900 pounds of flour, q Q o.
700 pounds Of rice. 5000 gallons Of
cottonseed oil, and 100, 200 pounds of
crushed wheat.
The people Of Armenia have little
knowledge of the use OF flour and do
not like 1t. The Red Gross consulted
Armenians in the United States, de-
termined just how their countrymen
like their wheat and then had mills
crush it Just as the Armenians do.

CHRISTMAS CARGO or
FOOD IS NOW RE ADV

The cottonseed oil is sent in place
of animal fats, which are not eaten
in Armenia and Syria. The Red Cross
was informed that olive oil was con-
5sidered highly desirable but the cost
was prohlbitiye and cottonseed Oil
was substituted.
The Caesar will stop at Gibraltar to
take aboard representative of the
American EN- bassy5 at Constantinople
and proceed to Alexandria, Egypt,
where it will deliver coal and sup
plies to the United States cruiser Des
Mofnes. From there it will go di-
rectly to Beirut, Syria.
The clothing and food were gath
cred and contributed by the American
committee for Armenian and Syrian
relief, while the Red Cross itself CON
tributed the hospital and surgical
supplies.
From the beginning of the war un-
til September sc, ! the Red Cross itself
had received in contributions of cash.
and supplies about $3,225,000. Part
Of the money was spent In main tain
ing representa- In the field, and
some was used for relief supplies.
The total value Of the supplies ship
pei to the Entente Allies countries
was S1,122.000 while the value of
similar supplies shipped to the Cen.
trail Powers was S35O,0O0.
The difference in the figures is ex-
planned by the fact that for more
than a year, because of British and
French blockade measures, shipments
to the Central Powers has been i'm
possible. Arrangemen ts now are be-
ing mad e. however, by which the Red
Cross will be permitted to send med
zeal units Of physicians and nurses
to take charge Of a number OF hos
pitfalls in Germany and Austrta-Hun-
gary. Each unit will consist of six
doctors eight nurses. Each unit
will have charge Of a hospital contain
ing 600 beds.
Red Cross officials recently have be-
gun to consider the part America
will take in the period following the
war, when much suffering is expect
ed. The general idea goes far be.
fyond the question o. rood and shelter
and extends to the rehabilitation or
the people.

Fcnnornr n Science.


The increased extent TO which tile
large industrial corporations of the
country now support their own de-
partments of scientific research is a
gratifying development OF the times.
Science is regarded as necessity
rather than luxury. And this coming
OF science into its own as large factor
IN the Industrial life of the nation
is necessarily followed by a certain
reaction of business upon science.
Never before, perhaps. has the demand
been so keen for research that is no
less than ever scientific in spirit and
In method but that has a definite pur-
pose and Yields definite results. The
idea OF making science useful is not
new but the utility Of science has
become more universally the test of Its
value.
IN the scientific work done under the
federal government this demand for
results is abundantly justified by tnr'
public need. If the strongest corpora
tons are making large use OF chem
lists, physicists, and biologists, the
general public has similar need In its
service for applied science.
The business policy of organizing
scientific investigation for effective
work, however. is far from novel. for
In 1873, fn8the report to Congress adj
rocating the creation OF the nitcd
States Geological Survey, the National
Academy Of Sciences described the
ideal plan for a scientific bureau as
that which would yield the best Te-
suits at the least possible cost. Since
that day, moreover, economy in science
has become a more pressing Issue.

Tie Geology OF Petroleum.

e
The far-reaching Importance to the
United States Of an adequate supply OF
petroleum and gasoline has long been
recognized By the United States Geo
logical Survey, which during the last
two Years has made greater efforts
than ever before to assist in Discovers
ing and in developing new oil reserves
Brief accounts OF the work accom-
plished. with titles Of reports published
or In preparation this year, describing
the structure and oil prospects in
many new and undeveloped areas, es-
pecia11y in the western states, in the
southwest. and in the midcontinent
region will be found in the record Of
the geologic work carried on in the
several states. Even with all the funds
which, with justice to other mineral
interests, could be devoted to investi-
cations Of oil and gas, it hasnot been
found possible to extend these re
searches at all in proportion to the In
srease in public demand for informa-
Son both as to old and TO new fields.
A recent editorial in the Standard
d on Bulletin states: Time was when
oil operators were strongly inclined
TO give little orano heed to the opinions
of biologists. but that time is past. .
The value Of the studies Of geologic
structure IN the search for OIL is not
only thus recognized By the great oil
companies, but most OF these corpor-
ations are now recruiting corps Of
geoIngists, If they had not already had
trained biologists in their employ.
Naturally, the Information thus ac-
CURED by these corporations for their
guidance IA leasing lands is not avail
cole to- the public fact which makes
more pressing the need OF the land
oEner and OF the small ind dependent
driller for all the information which
the federal or state surveys can give.
