DR.. HADWEN IN ATTACK
ON VIVISECTlONISTS
English Scientist Declares Opera.
tions on Dogs Add Nothing to
Medical knowledge.

Washington NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. sat
through a sweltering evening in the
Public Library last night q protest
against the medical professfon's al
claimed, has accomplished nothing for
science that could not have been
achieved by other methods Senator
Myers of Montana introduced the
principal speaker, DR.. Walter R Had
wen of Gloucester. England, who took
the medical fraternity to task for it's
alleged barbaric practices.
He told Of witnessing operations
upon dogs which had been strapped
down and opened up with knives
without being given an anesthetic-
The principal part Of DR.. Hadwen's
! an article published in an American
magazine defending vivisection. The
English scientist characterized most
OF the statements contained in the ar
| ticle as lies" He said the author
of the article has misquoted noted
surgeons in order to bolster up his ar
guments.
DR.. Hadwen then read extracts
from statements by these surgeons
in which they frankly said they had
acquired no knowledge from vivisec-
| tion which could be employed ad-
| vantageously in treating human Ills.
Summed up. DR.. Hadwen's contention
was that, inasmuch as the anatomy
| Of dogs is altogether different from
| that of human beings. disclosures
| from operations upon dogs can be of
| no benefit to medical science.
Discovery that the blood circulates
was not brought about through vivi-
section. declared the speaker who.
after showing the difference of opin-
| ion among physicians as to the value
| Of vivisection. said. "the medical pro-
! fession never Is unanimous except
| when it is unanimously wrong"
The meeting was presided over by
| the Rev. DR.. c. Ernest Smith, rector
! of St Thomas Episcopal Church. who
said he had invited DR.. Simon F1ex-
ner, noted American scientist, to meet
DR.. Hadwen in joint debate Of the
| questions Of vivisection and innocu-
| lation. He stated DR.. F1exner had
| declined on the ground DR.. Hadwen
was not sufficiently we'll known in
| the realm Of medicine and science.

RENTS FOR DORMIT0RIES
IExCEED OPERATING COSTS
Reported Money Expended in Main
tanning Plaza Hotels Is More
Than Refunded.

Present indications are that the
sum received from rents paid at the
government hotels on the Capitol
plaza will exceed by about $45,00 the
amount appropriated for their main
tenance and operation, according to
figures made public by those interest
ed in maintaining the $45.50 monthly
rate at the government hostelries.
The original appropriation made by
Congress for the fiscal wear was $780,
ficiency appropriation of $4,000. max
ing a total of $1.005.000
Beginning with the month of Sep
tember, 1920. according to the figures
today, the accounts of the hotels up to
the present show an operating MONTH
ministrative expenses and all rent for
land under litigation are accounted
for in the figures. and at the close of
the last fiscal year cash sum of
$4,000 had been paid into the Treas
ury over and above the appropriation
of Congress. it is stated.
Guests in the government hotels
constitute the largest single group
of organized women in the District
of Columbia. Three representatives
are elected from each house in the
two groups Of buildings to constitute
the plaza council, which is organ
lied with the customary officers and
q regularly adopted constitution and
bylaws. The purpose of this body
is to promote the social and educa-
tional interests and the general well
fare Of tho guests Of the government
hotels.
Up to the present the plaza council
has collected, without any assistance
from the management or the housing
corpora ton. more than $4,000. More
than $4,000 has been expended for
the general welfare Of guests and 1t
now has a substantial checking ac-
count. Dances are given frequently
and outdoor sports are promoted and
carried on. Guests of the hotels con-
tributed $172.5S toward the Curie
radium fund.
Solely through the efforts Of the
mont hotels, which were scheduled
to be raised in october. 1920. from
$45 to $50.50 per month. were COM
promised and the rates were placed
at $47.5o per month. A further de-
crease was proposed and carried
through, involving elimination of 81
from the $47.5O rate. leaving the pres
ent rate OF $3.50.

TOXIC NOT WILLING TO DISCUSS
FAR EAST QUESTIONS AT PRO-
POSED CONFERENCE.
SETBACK DISARMAMENT
NIPPoNESE FEAR DlSsENSIoN
WILL FOLLOW If PACIFIC
PROBLEM is TAKEN UP.
we.tsru Newspaper ulion Ne-, serios.)

Washington. July 15.-Japan Is
ready to enter the disarmament con-
ference, but wlthholds assent TO nn un-
restricted discussion of Far Eastern
questions as n part OF 1t.
The viewpoint OF. the American gov
ernment is that a solution of the Far
Eastern question is a necessary ac-
compartment TO any disarmament pro-
gram. Thus develops the first hitch
If a hitch 1t turns out to be-in Prest-
dent Hardlng's plan to remove the
causes for heavy armaments and then
reduce the armaments themselves.
American officials, however, are OPP
timistic that u way will be found for
satisfactory conference to which
Japan will be a party and for pro-
gram of armament reduction accepta-
BILE to all.
The japanese reply to the prelim-
mary question of whether she would
receive an invitation to such con-
ference came to the State Department
through the American embassy at To-
kio Its text was not made public
and department officials declined to
reveal its contents except TO say that
it expressed approval of the disarma-
ment discussion but did not agree to
consideration of Pacific problems.
During the day, however, it became
known that the attitude of the Japan
ese government was known to the gov
ernment here. This attitude is that
the disarmament question is vast
one in itself, and that If other ques-
tiOns are introduced into the field of
discussion the conference may be so
brOadened as to endanger its success.
japanese officials are said to feel
this to be particularly true if the ques-
tions so introduced are to affect the
delicate balance of diplomatic rela-
tions in the Orient.
There is manifest in Toxic Il belief
that such n debate might open up a
Pandora's box of troublesome diplo-
matte intricacies, which would set for
Mr.. Harding's conference a task of re-
adjustment even greater than that at
tempted by the peace conference at
Versailles.
The alternative, in the belief of Jap
anese statesmen, would be to agree
beforehand on exactly what questions
will form the subject matter of the
discussions.
To this is opposed the opinion of
American officials that if the nations
ence, whatever limitations appeared
advisable could be fixed by general
assent afterward

WASHINGTON
SIDELIGHTS
Harding AnnuIs Army Harness Contract

I code prohibiting officers and employees
of the government from having any
interest in government property or
contracts.
"The facts developed by the attor-
ney general led to the conclusion that
these contracts had been entered into
as result of a conspiracy on the part
Of certain former temporary officers
OF the army to obtain possession Of
these military supplies"
The individuals involved in the ac-
tion of the President, Secretary of
War Weeks and Attorney General
Daugherty, are former Col. George B.
Goetz OF Ransom, w. Va; former
Maj. Joseph C. Byron OF Hagerstown.
Md; former Capt. Azel f. Cochrane,
and former Capt. Henry G. Benke, all
of whom held emergency commissions
during the war.
In July, 1920, the four men In Ques-
tion, 1t Is charged, prevented the sales
to the public. In September, 1920, the
United States Harness company was
formed. and on September "a the con-
tract between the company and the
War department, which turned over
all the surplus harness and saddles to
the company, was signed.
Prior to this an option upon this
surplus had been given to the com
pany, and following It's execution
Goetz resigned his commission and
signed the contract with the War de-
partment as president of the United
States Harness company. His assocf-
ates were officers Of the company.

WireIess Storm Warnings.

American mariners are to receive
storm warnings by wireless from all
parts of the world under arrangements
perfected by the shipping board with
most of the high-power radio stations
In different countries. Managing agents
and masters of shipping board vessels
were notified that the warnings would
be sent broadcast on schedules fur
nished by the ships radio operators.
Because of the number of vessels still
on the seas without radio equipment,
the warnings are to be passed on from
ships receiving them by other means
when such vessels are sighted.-Scien-
tific American.

praise or censure of other persons in
the naval service; state that the mo-
tives of others must not be impugned /;
prescribe the methods of redress for
wrongs, and covers appeals. ReguIa.
tlons also exist for guidance in corre-
spOndence.
ANY communication intended for
the public should be composed only
after mature reflection. In a spirit of
good taste and good temper, and in a
seemly and proper manner.
"a signed copy of any article by
any person in the navy on professional

Navy department at the time Of pub
lication of communication. The author
will be responsible for any statements
made"

Ousting of the Inefficient Army Officers

CECRETARY WEEKS has ordered
y the heads of all branches of the
army TO eliminate officers who do not
measure up to standards of military
efficiency. Officers who cannot give
satisfaction in one branch will be tried
out in some other and those who fail
to measure up in any of the positions
will be subject to retirement on small
nav or discharged under the provisions
of a recent law. In an explanatory
statement the War department says !:
1.-THE basic principle in making as
signments is to have the right officer
in the right place. The best interests
of the service should always be para
mount in deciding this question, and
It usually requires study OF the OIL
GERS whole record to determine 1t.
An officer receives his base training
IN the branch in which he is commits
stoned. and must be fit for duty in
his branch in peace and war. Should
he not show fitness for any branch,
then his case will be brought to the
attention of the annual classification
board.

Copper and Calcium in the Air.

1t is reported that Prof. Hartley or
Dublin has photographed. in ordinary
air, spectroscopic lines due, among
other things. to copper and calcium. 1t
is believed that they arise from fine
dust consisting of these substances,
projected into the atmosphere by
road vehicles, and by smoke and the
sparks of trolley wires. 1t is from
the latter that copper is supposed to
come. The quantity of copper thus
found is excessively slight. Indeed 1t
is only the delicacy of the tests that
renders it appreciable. Lines due to
lead, carbon. iron, manganese, nickel
and magnesium have also been de-
tected, but the quantity of these sub
stances is even less than that of the
calcium and copper, the lines of which
are always prominent in the spectra.

Not Always Easy to Trace the Con-
neetion. Though Sometimes II ls
Plainly Apparent.

There are quite number of tools
which are named after animals, and II
Is interesting to find out the connection
between the instrument and the animal
after which IL is named. In some cases
the connection Of ideas Is evident and
II is obvious why the tool is so named,
observes writer In London Answers.
The monkey wrench" for instance.
which Is spanner with n movable
jaw, capable of adjustment, can, by
u little stretch of Imagination, be
thought to possess some likeness to a
monkeys profile and, true, 1t deals
with nuts"
The donkey engine" which is ca
pable of lifting great weights. may be
considered similar in disposition to
the animal noted for Its stubbornness
and strength. We can see how the
mechanical "crane" got its name. In
the distance II looks somewhat Ike
that long-necked and long-legged bird.
1t is also natural that in country
like the United States. where large
herds of cattle are found roaming
wild. the wedge-shaped iron frame In
front of locomotive should be
called "cow-catcher." The carpenters
horse" is naturally so called because
1t has to carry 50 much on Its back.
The derivation OF the tallor's goose"
is not very evident, but no doubt some
long forgotten. imaginative and poeu-
cally minded tailor, In burst of In
splratlon, called his smoothing Iron
a goose" and the name has been used
ever since by his more practical sue
cessors.
The trIvet used to support a vessel
over the fire, with its long, thin legs,
is naturally called a spider" and 1t
is obvious why a spiral instrument or
iron screw Is called a worm" Also
we can all see why the large iron
poker which, being made red hot, is
used for lighting fires, Is called
"salamander."
1t is not easy, however, to see the
connection between crab-a fiat,
clumsy anlmal-and the pillar used
as a winch; and why capstan Is
called "crab" is difficult to imagine.
Again. the bar of Iron sharpened at
one end and used as lever for rails
ing weights Is named a "crowbar," for
no evident reason. and would
gladly take my hat off to the man or
woman who can explain to me the
derivation Of the name "bucksaw,"
"catboat" and "bullwheel."

FLYING Gas Cloud.

A cloud of glowing gas has been
discovered flying through space at
speed of 1,125 miles per second.
Readers may be relieved to know
that it is travelling away from us, but
even if it were coming our way there
would be nothing to fear, as many
thousands, perhaps millions, of years
must elapse before 1t could reach us.
- How it manages to remain intact
while travelling at such a dizzy speed
is a mystery. Equally mysterious Is
the manner in which it was able to
get up such speed.
The most probable explanations are
that it has been shot from some gi-
gantlc sun belonging to universe of
stars far beyond those we can see, or
that 1t Is a gradual accumulation Of
gas or gases which ultimately will be
formed into stars such as we see
around US at night.
