general average of all persons en-
rolled. The standings were:
General university average: 1.66
per cent.
Women: 1.96.
Men: $50.
Professor Alva 0. Neal, university
registrar and professor of rural cdu-
cation, contends that high school and
college girls usually show more
aptitude Tor study than high school
and college boys. A 14-year- old
mental equal of boy of 16, in line
with the condition that most women
equal in intelligence men two years
their senior until the women reach
their 10Th year.
Professor Neal attributes this to
the longer period of infancy in men.
Women mature more rapidly, he
points out, but when men become de-
veloped completely they benefit by
the increased preparation of the long
adolescence. Thus men as adults
attain more.
He sees another factor in wopen's
lack of necessity for competition.
From this point of view, they "have
suffered from too much protection"
In biology. he explains, it is shown
that protected animals. those that do
not have to rely on their own
prowess to meet adverse conditions,
fail to reach the high state of de-
velopment attained by those forging
ahead single-handed and fighting
past obstacles.
In the past. he recalls. women
have led sheltered life, and there
fore men,, having all the opportuni-
ties, attained their supposed mental
superiority. Today he sees condi-
tions changing. With women enter
ing the professions in continually
greater numbers, competing with
men in business, and succeeding as
we'll as men," he predicts that men
will have to step fast to maintain
their standard of mental superiority
over women after the age of
maturity"
Eventually women may be- the
mental superior Of men throughout
life, the professor hazards.

AMERICAN TIN PLATE.
FOR THE WORLD

lowing the establishment of the in
dustry, 1892. they turned out A.
000,000 pounds of tin plate, by 1900
it had reached 850,000,000 pounds,
in 1908 the outturn passed a billion
pounds, in 1912 it was over 2,000,-
600, 600, in 1917 mere than 3,000,-
100000, and in 1873 will slightly
exceed the high record established
in 1917 when we were not only
meeting our entire domestic re-
quirements but supplying enor-
NOUS quantities to other carts of
the world.
Meantime the importations OF
foreign tin plate had dropped from
the one billion pounds of 1891
to o5,000,0e0 in 1911. l0,000,-
600 in 1915. and 100000 in
1917. Since the close of the war
there has been a slight increase in
the importation but still an ex-
tremely small quantity as COM
pared with the domestic produc-
ton, which as above indicated is
now running at the rate of about
81 billion pounds a year.
The whole world has gradually
learned the value of American tin
plate and the exports, which
amounted to less than a quarter
of million pounds in 1900, were
100000 in 1910, l06,000,0N in
1914, and with the demands of the
war jumped to S60,000,000 in 1918,
dropping of course with the close
of the war and resumption of tin
plate manufacture in Europe, but
will stand for the current year at
about 250,000,000 pounds with .
value of approximately $4,000, 600
All of this 31z billion pounds Of
tin plate which we are making in
the United States in 1928 is coated
with tin brought chiefly from the
other side of the globe. The Ma

They also declared that if the right to file such a suit were upheld. it would be in direct contrayention of the free press guarantees Of the Fed eral and state constitutions.
 Judge Harry c. Fisher, of the Cir cult Court of Cook county, upheld the contentious of the defense in every particular. He quoted Sec tion A. Article H.. of the Illinois constitution, providing that ''eyery person may freely speak, write and lpublish on all subjects, being re sponsible for the abuse Of that lib- erty' and that the truth, when pub lished with good motives and for justifiable ends, shall be sufficient defense for libel
 Freedom of Speech
 The judge said that legitimate re- straints On freedom of speech had Ibeen narrowed down to .four ends lblasphemy, immortality, sedition and Exclamation. He dismissed the first 1.-two as not involved in the suit, point ed out that counsel for the city had admitted that the Tnibunes articles were not seditious and then held that defamation could exist only if the city could, by seme legal fiction, be regarded as a private Corporation.
 He then said that no decisions of Illinois courts in which municipall- ties were involved, had even hinte1 that city might at will throw off its character of a public government al agency. He said that the consti. tutional restraints against interfer-
 ence with freedom of expression ap piled with as much force to d city as it did to the state or any other governmental subdivision. Judge
 FNshei. added:y
 This suit is not in harmony with the genius, spirit or object of our institutions 1t does not belong in our day. It fits rather with the genius of rulers who conceived law not in the purity of love for justice, but in the lustful passion for power"

AMERICAN SOFT DRINKS
 INVADING ARGENTINA

BUENOS AIRES, April g. How to make Red Cross" cock tails, ginger cocktails, cherry, peach, guava, raspberry, sorange and honey cocktails, grape juice punch, cider punch, pineappleade, and score of other non-alcholic fruit drinks, American style, is described in a circular issued by the Argen- tine Ministry of Agriculture. Thom- as A. Lebreton, the new Minister of this department, until recently Ambassador at Washington, brought the recipes from the United Sattes.
 By encouraging his fellow coun- trymen to indulge in the beverages described, he hopes, not to intro duce prohibition, but to benefit the Argentine fruit growers and create a better domestic market for their products. He has not designed to reply to joking suggestions in the newspapers that the circular is in tended as prohibition propaganda, or to queries as to whether the ministry would object if a wee bit of something" were added to the drinks.
