SCIENTIST SAYS
CHEMICALS MAY
DETERMINE SEX
London Professor Ayers Elk
perimtentS Tend to Pr0Ue
Theory.

LONDON, Feb. 16-That the sex of
babies may be predetermined by injection
of chemicals into the mothers body, is
the theory now being worked on by
Professor Julian Huxley, noted scien-
fist.
He also believes twins may be created
artifcially, and bases this on the ex-
periments already conducted with the
eggs of the newt.
With regard to -predeterinmation
Professor Huxley stated the chemical
factors in father and mother them
selves have sex determining spermatazca.
These are definite substances, the strong
err of which-male or sfemale-deter-
mine the sen of the child.
These two substances, the female tend
ing to suppress the male and the male
the female, in their turn are produced
apparently directly by the sex factors in
the hereditary constitution of father and
mother.
The existence of different sized male
and female determining spermatazoa in
mammals affords all kinds Of possibili-
ties" Professor Huxley said, 1T should
prove possible to separate the two kinds
artifcially and then, by means of exami-
nation, to control the sex of offspring"
Sex already may lie Influenced in
birds, Professor Huxley said
ut has been known for some time that
old hen birds of various species may
assume male plumage," he said 1.-THE
bird soon becomes almost indistinguish-
able from. an ordinary rooster. What is
more, he or she, or it, begins to crow
Justify, to fight with other cocks and to
behave as a cock toward normal hens

EXPECT HOT DEBATE
ON FREE STATE ACT

@DONDON, Feb. ia bitter parliamen-
tary fight was forecast when the Irish
Free State act was called up for second
reading in the House Of Commons this
afternoon.
Political enemies of Premier Lloyd
George gathered their forces for an at
tack both upon the measure and the Pre-
mier.
Two amendments were drawn up by
opponents of the bill. The first, offered
by Capt. Charles c. Craig, an Irish Union
list, would give the governments pledge
to Ulster province that she would lose
no territory in the Irish settlement.
The second proposed that the Irish
Free State should not be called into off
cial existence until Ireland is calm and
peaceful.
Although Downing street officials re-
fused to make any predictions, the gen
eraI impression in government circles,
was that the bill would pass. 1t was
conceded, however, that opponents Of the
measure had gained some strength.

REGARDS SPONTANEOUS
DEMAND AS MANDATE.
THE spontaneous formation of these
clubs which you represent and of all
these others Of which you tell me and
the letters I have received from men
and women in every section of the State
constitute a mandate which no man can
ignore. I, therefore, comply with your
request and announce my candidacy for
the Republican nomination for Senator
at the coming primary.
81 an, of course, proud that SO many
of my fellow citizens deem me worthy to
lead our party In the fall campaign, and,
if elected, to serve all the people as one
of Indiana's representatives IN the ma
tional Senate for the next six years, but
it is with humility that 1 enter the con-
test, because of the heavy work that
must be done and the grave responsible
tiles that must be borne by the person
who will be Senator during that fateful
term. 1t is this commanding considera-
ton that has given me pause for l real
ize the magnitude and cOmplexity of the
problems to be solved
1T is a noble thing to be chosen by
the people Of Indiana to be one Of their
agents in this august council of the Re
public; the Senate Of the United States.
No higher honor can be bestowed on any
citizen-the names of Webster and Clay,
Of Sumner and Morton will be remem-
bered when the names Of many Presi-
dents are forgotten.
by the men she has sent to this high
est assembly in the Nation, Indiana has
set a standard Of merit, than which no

learning, talents, character and devotion
to public duty, Indiana Senator's have
illustrated the best traditions OF Ameri-
can craftsmanship.

after the primary, comes the real bat
tie; whatever the result in May that
