OPPOSES VIvIsECTI0N.
Study of Health Urged in Contrast
to Work in Disease.
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
l was much gratified to read in The
Star few days ago that DR.. Walter
r. FHadwen. president of the Brltish
is to speak in Washington this fall:
There is great need for an exposure OF
the cruelty and futility of Vivisectlon
and the folly of seeking health aids
through that abominable practice
Before the world war an important
Frankfort. the topic under discussion
being anti-vivisection and health mat
ters herewith affiliated.
Special mention was made of the un-
fortunate fact that while pathology had
prominent place in medical colleges,
physiology, the study OF healtn, re-
ceived but scant attention. What l
said on that occasion l should like to
repeat here: What we need-it seems
to me-is, in every medical college and
university, a chair for the study or
ealth-promoting conditions, which. In
contrast to the universal study OF oac-
teriology and disease. shall illumine the
dark maze Of ills that civilization inn
poses-a department Of nature re-
search. whose object shall be the COM
parative study of law-abiding condi-
tions under which different nations have
attained the highest standard OF physl-
cal well-being.'
II IS evident l1ldl lIcIc Is VI SSIl1 iCcO
of methods for the study and preserva-
ton of health other than we now have.
1t is for scientific investigation to re-
I,veal and emphasize to us the conditions
which can assure to us a full degree OF
health.
Light to benefit mankind must come
no. by oft-repeated experiments that
debase the operator and infiict anguish
untold upon the lower creation. but by
presenting to the world that higher
standard of possible health which shall
inspire adequate desire to live in &C
cordance with those laws which make
possible its easy attainment. This Is
the humane and ennobling work. which
we hope will find it's rightful place in
our higher institutions Of learning.
Such departments would attract the
choicest spirits of our country and
! would in time include in their benef1cent
scope alt:the vexed health problems of
the hour.

MERIT SYSTEM SCORES

President Harding's administration
was commended today by the commit
tee on foreign service of the National
Civil Service Reform League for haV-
ing made long strides toward remov-
ing diplomatic posts from rewards
for political service.
The report says the first year
seems to indicate that an earnest
effort has been Smade to retain the
services of men of experience and 10
appoint to diplomatic posts persons
with .qualifica tions i'll diplomacy.
The committee reports, according
to the Associated Press, that fve or
the nine ambassadors appointed by
President Harding were men with
previous experience in diplomacy. SIX
of the thirty ministers now serving
in the diplomatic corps. the commit
tee found. were appointed on the
basis of their experience and eight
were men appointed during previous
administrations
Twenty-Three Without Experience.
Four ambassadors, sixteen minis
ters, two agents and consuls gen.
eral and one minister resident and
consul general appointed by Presi-
dent Harding, the report says, were
persons without any previous diplo-
matte experience.
Wv hlle many of the twenty-three e
appointments made of persons with
out previous diplomatic experience
operated as a recognition of political
obligations" the report states, ''the
evil of such appointments is largely
abated by the present administration
and contrasts favorably with the rec
ordS of the first year of other ad-
Illustrations.
Hughes Shares Praise.
FOR this record President Harding
and Secretary Hughes are to be COM
mended. President Harding is,
furthermore. deserving of commen-
dation in that he had selected for
Secretary of State a man of the high
est qualifications and one devoted to
the merit principle.
The committee reported still bet
ter showing, IAN unequaled record of
adherence to the merit system" in
its examination of appointments in
the consular service. There has
been, during the first fifteen months
of the present administra ton, the re-
port states. not a single exception
to the rules requiring appointments
through examinations in the consular
service"
1t is worthy of special notice the
report says. that the present admin
istration. TO d greater extent than
any other" has chosen as assistants
to the Secretary of State men train
ed in the foreign service.
