WORCESTER, Mass, Sept. 26.-Pro :.
fessor Robert II. Goddard has obtained
new backing with which to resume his
work ON his rocket which he hopes to
shoot to the moon, and his plans are
once more going forward. The nam.
of the new supporter is not revealed,
although DR.. Goddard describes him as
man of means and scientist of con-

Twenty men have communicated witt,
the inventor. asking for the privilege
OF being the first passenger when the
rocket is sent off on its long voyag-.
All have been answered, but no prom

scrioed all the applicants as seekers OF
adventure rather than trained men
seeking scientific knowledge. The lat

Port Plan Seeks to Cut
Living Costs, Says Smith
Former Governor Tells Bay-
onne Audience 1t Will Directly
Affect s Millions Here

Ex-Governor Alfred E. Smith ey-
planned the purposes OF the Port Of
New York Authority last night at the
Industrial Y NJ. c. A, Bayonne, n J.
before joint meeting Of the Rotary
Club, the Kiwanis Club, the Bayonne
organizations. The Port of New York
motion picture was exhibited at the
meeting, its first showing in this see
ton.
The former Governor declared that,
in addition to the co-ordinatinp of
sail and steamship facilities as part
of the comprehensive plan for develop
ment of the port, the Port Authority is
Interested in highway development. It
has under discussion, he said, the es-
tablishment of series of motor truck
lines to assist in the feeding and cotl.-
ing of the 5000 GOO persons in the port
district.
Many persons said Mr.. Smith,
think the subject OF port develop
ment is something only connrehended
H. those concerned in large commercial
enterprises. On the contrary, one OF
the main objects of the Port Authority
Is to bring about the realization by all
OF the citizens OF the port district that
tae unloading OF d steamship-the
prompt delivery OF the goods which it
carries and the prompt, simple and di-
rect delivery of the enormous euanti-
ties OF freight that must pass through
E. district which is inhabited by nearly
eight million people. and which comes
into it by railroad-is a vital concern
and can be understood by every one.
1t has direct effect cn the cost of
living,
The Port Authority is merely an
otker name for a central agency that
can act in the interests of the corl-
munity and the nation as whole We
need 10 maintain great Port of New
York
julius Henry Cohen. counsel to the
Port Authority. in an address last night
to the educational council of that BODY
at II Broadway, spoke of the desira-
bility of having great public prof jects
ready for fulfllment in tires of in
dustrial stress. His sentiments were
concurred in by Hugh Frayne, OF the
American Federation of Labor, one of
the delegates at the meeting.

Says Ban ON Mating
OF the Unfit Would
Cause Revolution
Eugenics Speaker Warns
Against Suggested Edict;
College Women Termed
Factor in Race Suicide

Immediate and overwhelming revo-
luton" would follow any edict forbid
ding the physically unfit to marry. ac-
cording to warning sounded by Pro-
fessor Rudolph NJ. Binder, of New
York University. speaking at the
eugenics convention yesterday ut the
Museum OF Natural History. Previous
speakers at the convention have agreed
that the grossly unfit" should be pre-
vented from marrying.
The thing for eugenists to do, Pro
fessor Binder said, is to make the un-
fit fit rather than to forbid the unfit
to marry. Draft records of the world
war show that nearly SO per cent of
Americans examined were unfit for
military duty, but they could not be
forbidden to marry.
"Three-fourths of the children in the
United States are defective physically
in some degree" he continued. "To
tell them when they have grown up
that they must not marry would pro-
duce q revolution infinitely more seri-
ous than any proposed by anarchists. -
Professor Binder emphasized the
Importance of the health reform as R
eugenic agency and disputed the gen
eral belief that men of genius are
physical weaklngs. On the contrary,
he said, great minds are usually housed
in sound bodies. Michael Angelo.
Shakespeare, Goethe and many other
geniuses were cited in proofs Of this
assertion.
Higher education for women was dis
cussed as factor in race suicide in
the address of DIR. Louis l. Dublin, of
the Metropolitan Life Insurance Com
pany.
Very generally college women do
not marry" he said, "and when they
do they bear but few children. They
have set a very undesirable fashion in
this respect which other women fol-
low These tendencies are the result
of the kind of education which women
receive. Their comparative isolation
during four critical years of early
womanhood, the particular courses of
study which glorify the cultural ele-
ments of life rather than the practical
necessities, and their constant associa-
tion with unmarried women teachers,
often to the exclusion of men, all re-
suit in educating the young college
girls away from home interests. Other
ambitions are created which in very
real sense are antagonistc to the de-
velopment OF family and home ties
In women's education the ideal of
marriage is subordinated to that OF
personal culture"
He proposed as remedy that women's
colleges appoint to their faculties a
larger number Of men and OF married
women, and that the curriculum be re-
vised with the intention of emphas asiz-
ing courses in home making and par
ticipation in modern community life.

Every ono Of the 1893 students is
being deprived OF complete high school
education because the necessary double
session cuts down the number of their
study periods. In addition to this, the
distressing condition caused by the
crowding has compelled the school au-
thorlties to violate the state law which
provides that there shall be two physical
training periods every week.
There are no physical training periods
in George Washington High School this
year. Even football will have to be
abandoned despite the appeal signed by
fifty candidates for the school eleven.
In desperate effort to solve the sit
uation caused by the increased registra-
tion, the school authorities have been
compelled further to crowd other high
schools by sending George Washington
students to already oyercrowsied an
nexes. Some of the girls have been sent
to the Eightysecond Street annex of
the Julia Richman High School in P. S.
9, and some others to Wadleigh High
School OH 115th Street near Seventh
Avenue. Some of the boys from
George Washington are being sent to
New-York tribune., 1921-09-27

the annex of the High School of Com
mcrce in P. S. 106 at 132 West Eighty
ninth Street. In every case of these
transfers the student is put to the ex-
pense of two carfarcs each day, owing
to the distance he must travel from his
home.
Those remaining at George Washing
ton are on complete double session with
out any study periods in between their
regular scholastic work.
Such are the conditions within the
ancient building. Three wooden huts,
heated by stoves, have been erected on
the meager playground for use as ad-
ditional classFoons. The windows in
the old scheoEhouse and the huts are
broken, and no attempt has been made
to repair them. The school was illumi-
mated by old gas Jets. but an electric
system is being installed. The class
rooms have not been painted in years.
The halls are marrow and dangerous, in
case of fire.
AS though the old schoolhouse were
not already overworked, it is used three
days week as a branch of the public
library.
