Scientists Also Tell Of Discovery
 of New Zeta Ray

Cincinnati, Dec. 29.--Lack of honor among business men is the chief req son for their work not being included l in the professions, Dr. Rudolph Bin der, head of the department of soci- ology, New York University, said to- day at the meeting of the American association for the advancement of science.
 Schools of commerce were unable to make business a profession because training alone was insufficient he de- clared.
 Capitalism has achieved wonder full results and in order to preserve itself and civilization 1t must add a new achievement, that of genuine service" he said..
 World wide use of a simplifed form of the English language in commerce and international intercourse was urged by J. w. Hamilton of St. Paul, who has spent much time in the de- velopment of @ proposed universal language. X
 The Human Body
 Peculiarities of the human body al- so were discussed by the scientists, Professor K. c. Hoskins of Ohio State university. declares that the pineal gland in the human body is regarded as the seat of the human soul" Its Arrangement causes seri- ous Arrangements of the body. Other glands also play an important part in human existence. he said.
 Entomologists, discussing plant life, were told by Dr. N. F. McIndoo that the cotton boil weevil is doing more damage than any other insect in the world.
 Two New Discoveries.
 Two new discoveries were submit ted to the scientists last night. Dr. W. D. Harkins, professor of physical chemistry at Chicago university, an- nounced that he had discovered the zcta ray, expected to have a broad effect in the field of physics, and Dr. Willis Whitney of Schenectady, N. Y., demonstrated the possibility of trans- hitting electrical current by wireless Dr. Harkins said that he had found the new ray in his attempts to break Up atoms in gases by directing the
  succeeded in isolating it.
 Dr. Whitney, in a demonstration conducted to show the various uses of vacuum, transmitted through a short space Of air sufficient high frequency current to light an incandescent lamp. He used an induction coil speeded up somewhat after the method used in radio. The process would be too wasteful for general use in the trans mission of power, he declared, unless improved by research.
 The Labor Problem.
 Scientific analytical research should be applied to the labor problem 10 bring about it's solution. Dr. Francis II. Bird, director of the department of research of the United Typotheate of America, declared in an address today before social and economic science section. Groups directly concerned often fail 10 grasp the basic factors in industrial controversies, which would be apparent to scientific investigators, he said.
 Constructive research work is be- ing done by both open and closed shop printers and by employing print CTS, to bring about an understanding of their problems he declared.
 "The employing printer has not solved his labor problem. but is mak. ing an effort to study it intelligently," Dr. Bird declared, adding that the Typothctae is contributing 10 the work by doing research in the labor problem and maintaining an extensive service on labor information and counsel for its members.
