Rabbi Wise Urges U. S.
To Push Disarmament
Conference With Great Britain
and Japan Advocated TO
Insure World Peaca

A disarmament conference with
Great Britain and Japan in the event
that America does not take place in
the League of Nations was advocated
by Or Stephen Wise yesterday in his
sermon at the Free Synagogue.
Even greater than Americas mart
IN the winning of the war NAV become
Americas part in the winning of world
peace, said DR.. Wise. America NAV
keep its representatives out of Euro
pean peace conferences and councils
and parliaments, but America as a ma
tlon cannot permanently refrain from
having part in the ordering of. or in
the assent to disorer in, world af
fairs"
Whether or not America has the
right TO press the President on behalf
of disarmament may be debatable
question. But it is not debatable that
we have the right to urge the Execu-
tive and the Senate to move forward
honestly and genuinely on behalf of a
disarmament conference with England
and Japan.
"The one way to end the intolerable
and hideous anti British conspiracy in
America is to enter into conference
with Great Britain and Japan touching
the possibilities of disarmament-a
conference which may prove to be de-
ciSiVe for world peace"

Brown Meloney, ''but is there not n

And so it happened that Eve, the six
teen-year-oid daughter of Nine. Curie,

Friday morning, bent on discovering

The two daughters, of the wold's most
famous woman scientist are almost as
interesting a human study as their
mother. With unanimity which is as
efficient as it IS unconscious they divide
the job of taking care of mother. Eve,
the family beauty and mischief maker,
is the one who makes the perfect buffer
between mother and the movie picture
men. A bit frightened, as clustered
French girl of sixteen must be, yet
perfectly poised and trying desperately
not to find these wild Americans anus
ing, Eve has already learned that TO
understudy her mother is the easiest
way for all concerned; if Nine. Curie is
too frightened to pose for the camera

She is frankly enjoying every mo-
lnent of her great adventure even here

Science for Sciences Sake Has
No Place I'm Mime. Curie's Life

Madame Marie Curie has been in
this country only five days, fatigued
and silent most of that time, yet al
ready she has managed to shatter the
tradition that woman Of science
lacks tenderness. A trail of little
courtesies has followed her swift
travels through the three women's
colleges, which set the affidavit of
deeds upon her declaration that there
is no divine right of science to be un-
kind. Science for sciences SAKE
has no place in her code of living.
1t is a strange thing that this
woman, hailed as the greatest woman
scientist of her time, and the peer of
the greatest men scientists, should re-
quest her friends to deny for her the
famous story of the student who
swallowed pin on the ground that
this story makes her appear unkind
to the girl.
The legend runs that one day in her
laboratory girl swallowed pin and
came running to her terror-stricken
only to be absent-mindedly reassured
Never mind, my dear. I'll give you
another"
Scien&e Not Unkind
~ should not like to have credit for
such absorption in my work" Nine
Gurie protests gently 'You see, sci
ence ought not to make people unkind
and that story sounds as if | thought
my work was more important than the
! young girls suffering.
eff it were true that science makes
people unkind to one another, then
neither l nor any one else ought ever
to study science any more, All study
tion, to help people to live together
more comfortably and happily; il
( science defeats this purpose, if il
makes US thoughtless of other peoples
/ troubles, then it is defeating the very
purpose for which it exists"
This theory illumines many of the
/ little acts of gentle courtesy which
/ have already endeared Nine. Curie tc
the friends vsho have, travelled with
| America. The other day at Smith Col
lege the French classes presented hel
with an enormous bunch of crimson
roses. Madame buried her tired face ir
! their fragrance and they lifted eyes
! filled with grateful tears.
"Such beautiful flowers you have in
your country" she said. Her hands
fingered caressingly on the velvet
petals, and she tucked bud into heI
queer little French basque. But the
next morning, when President Neilsor
and other dignitaries were packing the
roses into the automobile which was
to convey her to Vassar College
Madame gave up her roses with sud
den little deprecating laugh.
They are SO beautiful" she said
"but heard you speak last night of Z
young French girl who is i'll. / shoulc
| like her to have the roses"
Sends Flowers to Hospital
The same thing happened in New
York before Nine. Curie started on hel
| journey to Smith College on Friday
morning. Her rooms were filled will
imposing floral offerings from many
admirers which seemed doomed Il
wither in solitude, but Nine. Curie's
quick mind had found substitute fol
that wastefulness.
