Science

Tho theory that the earth is grad
ually cooling off and will one day die,
Ike the moon, has received what may
be the finishing blow from the cal
culations of Professor Jolly, scien-
list noted for his study of this sub
1ect. For many years the theory Of
cooling Of the earth was accepted. In
recent years 1t became modified, be-
cause no change could be detected in
temperature or weather conditions
from the time science began keep
ing accurate observations.
Professor Jolly shows that the
amount Of heat received from the
sun, when the sun Is totally obscured
for n certain length of time, IS just a
little less than the amount Of heat
Tadiated from the earth's surface.
This in the end, would result in a
cold world and to a certain extent
supported the older theory of dying
world. But Professor Jolly discovered
the influence of radium on the tenn
perature Of the earth. This influence
tends to keep the temperature nor

According to the Jolly theory it is
possible that the growth and action
of radium in the earth's interior Is
responsible for volcanoes and earth
quakes.

Philanthropy
By BFRTON BRALEY

I'VE often thought If / were rich
I'd spend but little on myself.
There are so many causes which
A man could aid who had the pelt.
I'd help the poor, I'd strive to live
To save men from the numbing
clutch
OF bitter want I'd give and give
To schools and colleges and such.
OF course, I'd need a country place,
A city home. a southern cottage
Ud want SOME luxury and grace
Out of my little mess of pottage)
Clothes, servants, cars-enough of
these
To make a proper social standing,
A yacht to sail upon the seas
To any port I might be going.
I'd want some paintings, rugs and
books
lin vellum and de luxe editions),
To stow away in various hooks.
But save for some such small am
billions,
Unselfshly I'd always plan
To share my great prosperity
With my less lucky fellow-man
And give my all to charityl

KHAN ISSUE
DISTURBING
POLITICIANS
Question viii Get Before
Congress Through Two
Sources.
BY FRAZER EDWARDS


ASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-While
WI politicians are appraising the
L- possibilities of national political
participation by the Ku-Klux Khan as
the result of its victories in last week
elections, members Of Congress can
find no way to avoid contact with the
Khan issue which many of them fear
will be the years worst bugaboo.
The Ku-Klux Khan probably will
get before Congress in two ways.
These are:
]. In the Mayfeld case. involving
the right of Senator Earle B. May
field Of Texas to his seat, if. as has
been alleged, he is a member of the
oath.
2 Through the activities of the Ma
tional Vigilance Association which has
avowed its intention of putting
through laws against masking
secrecy of memberships and for Fed
eral prosecution Of mob violence.
VIII Make Fight
Senator Spencer of Missouri will be
chairman Of the Senate privileges and
elections committee, which will handle
the Mayfield contest, If the case Is
pressed. Up to the present no formal
presentation of charges affecting May
fields right to his seat has occurred.
but anti Klan factions in Texas assert
the fight VIII be made. Klansmen
have been quoted as saying that a
Southern senator. who took a leading
part in the Newberry fight viii cham
plon Mayfleld
In this case efforts viii be made to
subordinate the Khan Issue and TO
decide Mayfeld's right to his seat on
purely legal grounds relating to use
Of money in the campaign and the
carrying out of certain election laws
But the Khan question would be con-
stantiy in the background.
Organization Excites Comment
The activities Of the newly formed
national vigilance committee are ex-
citing some comment in Washington
The organization. which has headquar-
ters here. sets forth II is composed Of
men prominent I'm educational, bust
ness and professional life. 1t urges
Nationwide support for laws to pre-.
vent masking to require all oreaniza-
tons 70 make public names Of all
their members and for drastic Federal
lows to punish persons taking part IN
mob violence
Thus the Khan question is 10 he
agltated before Congress from both
sides. In view Of Khan success in the
recent election, congressman are dis
turbed al the prospect OF having to
face this issue which involves 80
much Of racial and religious prejudice
along with purely political Issues.
