Systems

The average Frenchman. English
man or Italian Is convinced abso-
lutely that flying will become a COM
mcrcial pursuit after the war. The
average American Is still inclined to
be skeptical. This is the moro pecul-
lar because OF the benefits of COM
munication by air would he infinitely
greater in the United States than in
Europe, says The Automobile and
AutCmotive Industries.
In point OF time New York and
Chico go are further apart than al
most any two cities In Europe Of
similar importance, while New York
and San Francisco are us many days
apart as Paris and London are hours
by the conventional kinds of trans
portation. Airplane mail would
bring the Pacific coast as close TO
New York os Pittsburgh is at present.
OF course it would be expensive, but
the fact that kilograms cost more
than letters does not prevent their
use. Airplane mail should be less
costly than telegraphy, probably little
more expensive than ordinary mail
when an air service is fully developed.
The airplane in sense provides a
missing link In transportation. Pail
roads and roads will carry any ar
ticlc with fair speed The telegraph
and telephone will carry nothing but
speech, for telegram canot be q
document in the way letter may
be. The airplane will not carry any
article, bnt IL will transport anything
small and light. 1t can make the
transmission of documents almost as
fast as the wire makes transmissions
Of words.
The importance of this cannot be
overlooked. Nor is the ability of the
airplane to carry passengers to be
neglected. Suppose that the trip
from New York to Chicago cost five
times rail transport, 1t would still
/. be cheap for many men on account of
the time saved. The hours which the
average important business man has
to spend in trains are equivalent to a
considerable shortening Of the years
OF his life
America is admittedly far behind
the rest Of the world in airpane de-
velopment. altho she has the honor
of having made flight practical.
American initiative ought to be able
TO more than make up the lost ground
when the commercializing of flight is
under way.

NO APES IN MANS ANCESTRY
Fundamental Differences Between
Them Cannot BE Explained by Any
Theory of Evolution.

DIR. Mattoon NJ. Curtis, professor of
philosophy in Western Reserve uni
versity, protests in letter to Science
against the assertion, still common in
current scientific literature, that man
Is a descendant of the anthropoid apes.
He quotes Professor Duckworth, the
leading authority in this field, who
wrote in his "Morph0logy and Anthro-
pology':
1--WE must conclude that the existing
anthropoid apes. constituted as they
now are, did not figure in the ancestral
history OF man."
And he points out some Of the fun
damental differences between man and
the apes, differences which defy any
theory of evolution to explain. Among
these differences are those in the form
of the skulls, the shape of the most
ancient skulls that have been found
being substantially the same as the
shape of the skulls of today.
Professor Curtis pleads that sound
science and sound education be based
upon actual facts and such theories
as grow out Of them, rather than upon
mere speculations.

requisite change in the universlty's
bylaws to permit the admission OF
women to the medical school was
made by the Columbia trustees early

Dean Samuel w. Lambert of the

a statement recently regarding the
new policy of admitting women gives
much of the credit for bringing about
the change to DR. Virginia c. Glider

For several years Great Britain has
experimental with the sugar beet, but
now, facing sugar shortage and with
the need of making the country less de-
pendent upon foreign supply, the gov
eminent is taking an official concern
in the possibilities of this industry.
Accordingly, the government has made
loan toward the creation of sugar
beet factory near Newark, capable OF
dealing with a large daily tonnage.
The British Sugar Beet Growers socl-

Thousands of English Women Com
PEELED to Think Of Home In Which
Man Has NO Part.

War has done strange things to
women: 1t has made Of thousands Of
theh home-makers and home-loyers.
In the days Of peace there was a great
restlessness, craving for club or cor
porate life, but out OF the confusions
and descriptions Of war has been born
deep longing for quiet things and
for the solitude of the home, re-
marks the London Daily Mail.
Clubs and hotels for women were
popular three years ago, especially
those which were run on common
sense lines without annoying rules and
restrictions. Because so many women
must live In London today, and be-
cause there is so little room for them.
most of these hostels are full, But
they are now unpopular. They are re-
garded as useful stopgaps. In the
heart of almost every hostel-dweller,
however, there burns a secret desire
for little house OF her own, house
that Is utterly unconnected with mar
riage and motherhood.
Tie dream OF wifehood that shone
rs a star for so many girls before the
war has faded away. Happy mating
IS, the remotest OF possibilities for hum
dreds of thousands of woman work
ers today. Women have given not only
their husbands but their lovers TO the
battlefield. and so II is thut the dream
