Clues Praise
ToAmerica
Noted Britisher Finds
Many LaudabLe Points
In u. S. Business.
by FORBES w. FAIRBAIRN.

The average American has far
better manners than the average
Briton.
He does not boast more than he
is entitled to boast. He is. on the
whole. more submissive to author
ity than is the Englishmsn."
Such is the considered opinion of
St. John Ervine, distinguished Eng
Iish man of letters. who has just
returned to London following an
extensive tour of the United States.
He made public his ideas on Amer
lea and Americans in, an address
before the Irish Literary Society,
where he was the guest of honor.
Fascinated BY Industry.
THE American loves work, and
he is fascinated by the power which
the control of industry gives him."
said ErVine. ''One discovers in the
whHle population a real love of do
ing a job as well as possible An
American bushes man, even a very
rich American business man, will
be at his desk in his ofice deeply
engaged in his work before an Eng
lish business man has finished his
early morning cup of tea.
Il do not think that this is nee
essarily a virtue in the American
business man-in many respects, in
deed. the British business man is
his superior-but II arises partly
from the fact that he must keep
On the same level with his competi-
tors; 1t comes more especially. how
ever, from a genuine love of his
job.
He would feel ashamed, I found,
to demand increased wages at the
same time that he was deciding tc
do less work and worse work"
Desire to See Things Better.
Ervine denied the British version
Of American brag" by terming. it
the laudable desire to see things
better done in America than they
are done elsewhere" -
Civic pride is far stronger in
American cities than in British
cities" he said. when was in
Chicago, I used to see banners
stretched across the streets with
such legends as Boost Chicago on
them. The citizens were invited not
only to brag about the CITY,. but to
make 1t worth while to brag about
when / say that Americans are
more submissive than Englishmen, ]
mean that they are more willing to
accept the iEsolence of persons in
office than We are. We respect the
law more than Americans do, but
we have less respect for officials and
politicians than they have.
The American mind is more re-
sponsive to newspaper opinion than
the British mind, and the American
people, are generally much more
patient than we are. They, are also
more willing to try new things than
we are"

FAvORS INCREASE or
SENATORS.

To the Editor. rbe wsshinstou R.rsB
Your correspondent. Mr.. winfield
Jones, in Fridays issue Of The
Herald, springs an interesting quc>-
tion in advocating an increase II
the number of United States Sens-
tors. The strongest point in his ar
gument is the disproportion between
the larger and the smaller states.
that is, States having no more than
100000 population should have A.
many Senators as the larger, more
populous and wealthy States.
Apparently IL would seem unfsiII
and unjust to the larger States. bu
when one considers that a Senator
duties and responsibilities are no
confined TO his own particular State.
but to all the States, and that the
Representatives are supposed to
look after their individual States. II
puts a different complexion on the
matter.
Let me inquire. Would IL not he
wiser. instead of increasing the
number OF Senators. to deUreasc the
number OF Representative IL is
trite saying, Too many hands spou
the broth" Is not that Just a. az
picsble to the House of Representa-
tives? Too many members spoil or
retsrd legislation. believe The
American people would favor re-
duction of members of Congress to
about 200 or not more than go, and
increase their salaries to sle.ooo.
and Senators to $4,000: then urge
the people TO send their strongest
and most capable men to both hous-
es of Congress. II would then b.
worth while for the ablest men ~
seek membership in either House

AFFECTS
TUBERCULOSIS RESISTANCE.

In the course of experiments to
determine the part heredity plays
in resistance to tuberculosis. $4,000
guinea pigs have been bred and
raised at the Department of Agri-
culture farm at Beltsville, Md. and
many facts about the effect of vari-
GUS factors on tuberculosis have
been determined. DIR. Sewall Wright,
Of the Bureau of Chemistry, told the
Biological Society at its meeting
Saturday night.
Since 1905 these pigs have been
raised through. IS generations. and
most Of, them have been closely in
bred. that is, offspring of the same
parent were mated. and in that way
generation after generation mus
produced without any outside mix
ture. For comparative purposes, a
normally bred control stock was
raised. Five families of inbred stock
have been crossbred with each
other and the control stock, and the
resistance, to tuberculosis Of these
first crosses has been determined
by noting the length of life of the
various breeds after the innocula-
tion with tuberculosis, said DR..
Wright. q
"ln these experiments. using the
crossbreds, 80 per cent of the varia.
tion in resistance was due to hered-
ity," said DR.. Wright in giving the
results of the experiments in which
DR.. Paul A. Lewis, of the Henry
Phipps Institute of Philadelphia,
co-operated. Probably only 10 per
cent was due to age, weight and
rate OF gain, and so per cent prob
ably to conditions at and following
incubation"
High resistance to tuberculosis
was transmitted equally well by
males and females and to progeny
of either sex, it was determined.
and as the crossbreds were of
about the same resistance as the
better parent. 1t is indicated, re-
sistance is dominant" over sus-
ceptibility. In certain cases the
offspring were markedly superior to
both parents, and DR.. Wright
pointed out that it appears that the
families are res ista ant for different
reasons, each adding a factor to the
resistance of the offspring. This
seems to indicate that Menders law
Of genetics that applies to color
and other charaeteristics of animals
and plants also operates in the
cases of tuberculosis resistance,
said DIR. Wright.
= "It was found that age, weight
and rate of gain had very little to
do with the length of life after in
oculation," said DR.. Wright.
