SOUTHERN Pine
CASE IN COURT

St. Louis. Mo-, March 15.-Argu-
ments were scheduled to be heard
before Federal Judge Faris here
today in the suit OF the government
looking toward dissolution OF the
Southern Pine association.
Charging violation Of the Sher-
man antitrust law, the govern
nent is seeking an injunction
against the association, 81 corpo-
rations and 60 individuals, to end
an alleged, conspiracy to curtail
the supply and increase the price
of yellow pine lumber.
A motion has been filed that
Judge Faris disqualify himself for
hearing the case on the ground he
is prejudiced against several Of
the individual defendants. who were
members Of the Southern Pine
Manufacturer association in 1913.
Judge Faris, then a member Of the
Missouri supreme court, wrote the
opinion holding that organization
violated the state antitrust law.

ENJOYS COMING
TO VISIT U. 5,
British Plan Special Mission 10 Dis
cuss Foreign Relations With
New Administration.

Washington, March 15.-United
Press. THE British government
has begun the organization Of a
special mission which it proposes
to send to the United States with
in the next month, according to ad-
vices received here today in Of
fetal quarters.
The mission will formally con-
vey its congratulations and wish
es Of success to the new admins
tration and then proceed to the dis
cussion Of numerous outstanding
questions between this government
and Britain.
Among the subjects to be dis
cussed, it was understood today,
are an association Of nations, dis
armament, German. reparatiOns
and Britain's Indebtedness to the
United States.
The first advices concerning the
British mission indicate that it will
be headed by three leading figures,
a statesman chosen from the high
est ranks of Britain's public men,
high military officer and a rep
resentative naval leader. Aides
and secretaries will complete the
mission.
The personnel of the delegation,
it is learned, is being chosen with
thu vsAuy ~
eliminating any figure which might
arouse hostility among the strong
ly pro-Irish element in this coun-
try. The British government is de-
sirous, first of all, to avoid any
embarrassment incident to the
Irish question.
So far as can be learned here the
civilian head of the commission has
not been determined although II. II.
Asquith, former premier, and Wins
ton Churchill have been mentioned
for the post.
The information reaching WASH
ington indicated that formal an
nouncement of the mission will not
be made in London for another
week or ten days.
Copy French Move.
The British decision to send a
mission to the United States is in
line with the action Of the French
government in appointing Rene
Viviani, former premier, to discuss
foreign affairs with the Harding
administration and may have been
prompted by the French move. Ac-
cording to the Interpretation here
it is part of An effort to gain Amer
ics's cooperation in European af-
fairs and is welcomed by this gov
ernment because Of the opportun-
ity it affords the United States to
define its position after discussion
with the foreign representatives.

KEEP CHICKEN.
HEART ALIVEBY
NEW METHOD
Tissue Still Functions
After More Than
Eight Years

New York, March 15.-One of the
most remarkable experiments in
the indefinite prolongation Of liv-
ing tissues by artificial methods, it
became known today, is the speci-
men of a chickens heart extracted
from an egg in the embryonic state
eight years ago, which has not only
retained the spark Of life, but has
grown many times its original
size. This minute organism was
removed from its natural gestative
place by DR.. Alexis Carrel, noted
surgeon, in January, 1912, in an at
tempt to sustain its growth under
scientific conditions.
In 1914 DIR. Carrell was called to
Europe and entered the medical
corps of the French army. The
little organism, in which he had
sustained life for two years, was
forgotten by the rush of events oc-
casioned by the first battles of the
conflict. Since that time scientists
connected with the Rockefelle =
Foundation, have given little infor-
nation of the miniature chicken
heart which responded to the hand
of science
Now the announcement comes
from DR.. Carrel that the organism
is still functioning and disbarring
accidents, will live and continue to
grow indefinitely.
The organism has been nourish-
ed regularly while cultured in an
antiseptic solution. From informa-
tion obtainable, it was said in this
experiment DR.. Carrel has gone
further than any scientists in his
quest for the Immortality Of living
tissues.
DR.. Carrell was awarded the
Nobel prize in 1912 in recognition
Of his surgical achievements.
