BLOOD TESTS SUGGEST
DUAL ORIGIN OF MAN

That the Asiatic and African PEG.
pies originated Independently of the
Europeans, has, according to the Pop
ular Mechanics Magazine for March
been suggested by two Swiss scroll
ogists, who made extensive blood
tests of the many nationalities which
were brough together in Mesopota.
mia during the world war. Examin.
ing and classifying the blood ele-
ments Of the native population, of
Jewish refugees, and of soldiers as
sembled from every corner of the
earth, they were surprised to find
the nationalities dividing, of them.
selves, into three distinct classes A
first group included the soldiers from
England, France, Italy, Greece, Bull.
garla, and Serbia. An intermediate
group contained Arabs, Turks, Rus
slams, and Jews. In the third grour
were Negroes, East Indians, and ma.
tives of Indo-China and Madagascar
Reason for their suggesting the duaI
origin of man is obvious; the inter.
mediate group represents, of course
fusion of the two archetypes.
