thought In the right direction.
INDIA has contributed nothing
i to science. She IL too. mar
row through the head. They are
quick thinkers, but they stop
there. They lack the ability Of
reasoning from cause to effect.
-aste-hatred is SO great that 1t
has dwarfed their mentality and
shrunken their vision. Compare
: her highest production, physi-
cally and spiritually. with that Of
the Western world. There is no
comparison. India win never
be able to rule herself 50 long
as caste-hatred exists In the
land. Physician. heal thyself!
A man who hates can't think.
He becomes an easy prey to the
man who can think. and the
people Of a nation who hate
each other as the people Of
India do can be easily ruled by
a nation one-quarter It's size.
Poor India. A dwarf on a
giants back can see farther
than the giant.
The greatest proof Of evolu-
tion and the authenticity Of an
thropology is the comparison Of
the mental endowments Of the
individual of the Orient with
those of the individual Of the
Western world. The measure
ment Of mans mentality and
his possibilities lie in the
fineness Of his organic quality.

Shipping Board May
Recondition 2 More
Ex-Ger1rlan Vessels
Committee Makes Survey o.
Agamemnon and Mt. Ver-
non to Determine Cost;
About S Million Necessary

The Shipping Board has given seri-
Gus consideration to the recondition-
ing of the ex-German liners Mount
Vernon and Agamemnon, it was
learned yesterday. A special commit
tee consisting of Commissioner Meyer
Lissner, Vice Presidents j. f. Sheedy
and W. J. Love, and w. F. Gibbs, who
has charge of the refitting of the
Leviathan for the board, recently made
personal survey Of the two vessels
at their moorings in New YORK Har-
Dor. 1t was understood that their re-
port to the Shipping Board was favor
able to repairing the liners should it
be found that there is sufficient money
to undertake the task.
1t was estimated by shipping men
that about $5,0o0,o0O will be necessary
to put the ships in first class condi-
tion, including reconstruction of their
passenger accomm odations and the in
stallation Of oil-burning machinery.
1t was pointed out that the cabin and
steerage space was designed for pre-
war traffic, and tsat extensive changes
@oulu De needed to mt them for pres
ent demands. More modern steamers
have larger cabins for Iirst and second
class travellers and better rooms for
steerage passengers.
The board has not yet decided
whether the expenditure of SIS 600, 900
would be justified. II is looking into
the question with view to providing
running mates for the Leviathan when
she enters the transatlantic service
again. With the exception of the
George Washington, also a former
German vessel, the United States
Lines has no ships which will give a
satisfactory sailing schedule with the
