Professor Einstein, learned gen.
tleman, supposed to have put "ifs"
and "buts" into Newton's theory
of gravitation, tells you not to be
too much influenced by the fact
that light rays passing by the
sun "are subject to curvature"
He also says, which will disap-
point many small boys, that Euclid,
celebrated Greek gentleman, au-
thor of so many theorems and so
many tears, is not necessarily
dethroned.
It would probably be impossible
for Professor Einstein to realize
how many there are of Americans
we'll TO do that do not in the least
care what happens to light rays
as they pass the sun.

heritage of the compaDy's stockhold-

the purpose the directors adopted the
principle of the separation of the Cali

Julius Kruttschnitt. chairman OF the

market in San Francisco closed for
the day. The announcement was made
before any appropriate plan even had
been considered. but the executive
committee was directed to proceed
forthwith with plans for segregation.
The announcement, signed by Mr..
Kruttschnitt, read as follows:
