RESULTS NOT VISIBLE


 Last year Szechuan, Yunnan and other provinces announced. their sys- tenn of selfgevernment. One year has elapsed, yet we still can see no results therefrom. Int slogan of self government has of late been taken advantage of by demagogues as their standard, and the consequence has been that more fighting ensued and that local bandits took advantage of the situation of disorder to rob and plunder,' both contributing to the dev astation of the various provinces. Such an application of self-government is nothing but self-confusion. Again in the different provinces men have sought power and wealth, and one fought with another successively. In some cases disputes have broken out over measures of reform ere their ef- fects could be seen. Such a system of can be nothing short of self-conufsion also.
 "As to the southwest, I have stood firm for peace for the last three years and have been willing to compromise on whatever terms proved acceptable. Such a policy has been fully seen by the people of the whole country. There fore, with reference to the question of unification and how to effect it, you should study over the problem and minutely in order that the unification of the country may be at an early date.

mill pump water into a tank;
but 1t is obvious that to build a

So the windmill has waned in

Science Queries

Has the velocity of light been
measured by creditable mechani-
cal means ?"-BLAZ SHOTY. Chi
cago.
YVES, with surprising accuracy
l. Physicist Fizeau measured
the speed Of light here on earth
by revolving a toothed wheel.
A mirror was set at distance
OF S.663 meters from the wheel.
the reflected ray passed between
two teeth to the mirror and was
reflected back: but when the
wheel was revolved the reflected
ray passed between other teeth
on return. Distance. rate Of rev.
olution and time were the data
secured.
Solving equations. velocity was
measured at $4,000 kilometers
per second. Cornu repeated
this plan and his result was so0.-
400 KIN. sec. Next. Feucault used
a far more delicate apparatus
consisting Of fixed and revolving
mirrors. His elaborate determina-
ton was 29S,574 KIN. sec.
Then the able physicist, Michel
son, greatly increased the deli
cacy of adjustment Of fine mir.
rors and with a distance Of sos
meters and a speed Of rotation
of a mirror Of 275 per sec. de-
term.ned the specific speed Of
light to be 299,992 KIN. sec.
Then the master, Simon New.
comb, entered the lists in obser-
vations of exceeding precision.
His arduous toll elected the ad-
miration of scientists, with the
final result of $3.50 KIN. sec.
This problem Of measuring
such an unthinkable speed is one
of the most important ever solv-
ed. The U. s. Ephemeris now
publishes each year this speed as
1S6,324 miles per second.

CCIENTISTS are making siren.
~ uous efforts in many parts
OF the world to build a science Of

the result. No clue as to what

been proven about mind.

Wooden Legs
and Heads

TIM COTE, ragged and wooden
legged, asked for a night s
- lodging at charity home the
other evening. Because he kept
suspiciously feeling his wooden
leg he was searched and a recep-
tacle was found containing 500
plus.
We sometimes "knock wood"
on our own heads-or the other
fellow Sin jest or in mock super
stition. But it might not be a bad
idea, quite frequently and in eager
earnest, to search those heads with
expectant suspicion to bring to
light their latent good sense and
unusual practical wisdom.

Washington
In Congress
By BILL PRICE.


- Congress the consolidated
sentiment of the voteless District
on local legislative problems; to
aid the District Commissioners in
urging the enactment of legislation
and the granting of appropriations
absolutely vital to local progress
and improvement; to truly and
earnestly endeavor to have Con-
gress adopt and follow a broader
and wiser policy toward the up
building of the Federal Capital,
and a more liberal attitude general
ly in financially caring for the
actual wants and needs Of this city,
has been repeatedly recommended
to the civic and trade bodies of
Washington by this newspaper as
an imperative step in local better
ment.
Such a committee now exists un-
der the name of the Joint Commit
tee for Civic Betterment. Its aim
is concerted action before Congress
sional committees, after the mem
bership bodies have acted upon
questions placed before them. 1t
will consider questions of public
welfare and make suitable report
to the constituent organizations.
The announced purpose is to seek
to centralize upon local problems
and to promote unity of effort in
all directions upon the larger prob
lens affecting the future progress,
material welfare, and beautifica-
ton of the Nations Capital.
1t is assumed that such a COM
mittee-composed as it is of able,
patriotic, unselfish leaders of Wash
ington thought-will have for its
one objective the onward march Of
Washington, through fair and
square pressure upon Congress to
come to a realization of the harm
that Congressional niggardliness is
doing to the Federal Capital. If
jealousies Of individuals or or
ganizations are completely re-
moved from this centralized COM
mittee; if selfish aims of any set
of citizens are promptly frowned
upon, and every decision arrived
at is the free and untrammeled
opinion of the WHOLE OF WASH
LNGT0N and for the WHOLE OF
WASHINGTON, then the committee
should become power for the COM
munity's good.
For many years the real friends
of the District in Congress have
told Washington people that the
great trouble here was the "wire-
crossing" of representatives of
local organizations appearing in
Congress that when Congress
found that local unanimity was
lacking it went upon its own way
without that consideration that
would be given to merged public
sentiment. Conducted on broad
lines, joint committee should
make a forceful impression, if it
confines its work to the bigger
problems upon which there is vir-
tually unanimous local agreement.
If it attempts to push problems that
do not have wide local backing, or
take up matters that have the sup
port of certain interests or classes
only, its usefulness will end. This
will doubtless be avoided by the
representative men who will be Sc
lected by the various organizations
and who understand conditions that
will confront the committee in Con-
gress.
There has never been a time in
the history Of the District when
there was greater need for consoli-
dated presentation to Congress of
the necessity for better and more
liberal treatment of this city by
that body.

WindmiLLs Versus Oil Wells
BY Henry Smith Williams

A NYONE who has visited
"A an old field will recall that
derricks above the oil wells bear
a close resemblance to the
framework Of windmills.
This resemblance Is accidental.
yet the suggestion of the an.
alogy between the oil we'll and
the windmill is by no means fall
lacious. Broadly speaking. 1t
may be said that the two have
a common object. Both are de-
signed to make energy available
for the practical purposes Of
mans comfort and well-being.
Man harnesses energy from
natural sources to save himself
muscular labor.

THE more one thinks of the
Bath Tub, the larger the
subject looms.
The Bath Tub is probably
the most characteristic mark
Of modern civilization. /
Although the ancient Greeks
and Romans bathed a good
deal. the triumph of Christian
ity in Europe was a triumph
of the great unwashed.
Medievalism knew no Bath
Tubs.
And for that matter. a great
part of modern Europe knows
no Bath Tubs.
You can rent palace in
Rome. or a magnificent man
sion in Paris, and while You
live surrounded by every con.
ceivable sort of luxurious tap
estry and carving, you will lie
compelled, II you want TO
cleanse your body, to bathe
standing up. And il you wan;
warm water, to ring a bell and
have 1t brought from the

costs money, whereas the wind
is free. Why not use free

The experiment was tried,
and, Of course, It works. The
windmill charges the storage
batteries just as the oil engine
does. So the old problem Of
storing the energy of the wind is
solved. Many a farmer is put.

RUT now we see an illus.
tration Of the old law that
progress is cyclic. One Of the
newer uses Of the oil engines is
to generate electricity to supply
electric light and power to farm
residences, and this involves the
use Of a storage battery to bottle
up the electricity. Using this
apparatus. the farmer became a
practical machinist. In particu.
lar he learned that all the oil en-.
gine does is to turn a wheel, that
the energy of molar motion may
be transformed by a dynamo. or
a generator, into the energy Of
