Science

Chemists are working today with
more interest than ever on the hui
man blood While great deal is
known about the blood compared to a
few years ago, it still has it's mys-
teries. There are many similarities
between blood and sea water This
is explained by the fact that man took
the necessary qualities OF the ocean
with him and wore them inside when
he evolved for n sea creature into
land animal.
Until three centuries ago there was
not a man in the world who knew
anything about the circulation of the
blood. The most learned doctors had
PECULIAR and contradictory ideas about
It. Three hundred years ago William
Harvey discovered the important facts
relating to the circulation Of the
blood. His experiments covered
twenty-five years. King Charles Of
England called Harvey to explain 1t
to him. The king and his court
couldn't understand and Harvey was
considered a crank for many years.
Today his name is held highest in
reverence by physicians the world
over.

BATTLE FOR
E NJ PRE- IS
BLOODLESS
England, France and Spain
Contend for Control Of
Moroccan City,
BY MILTCN BRONNER,
NEA Service Writer

m iONDON, Oct. 10.-Without a
shot being fired or blow
- struck a great battle has been
fought here. 1t has been a battle for
empire. And very few people have
known about it.
Y Although it involved so much, the
contest was not staged on any gran
dose scale. Just a few men, armed
with bundles Of manuscripts and
maps gathered in an obscure and clut-
tered-up office in the Foreign Office
Luilding, talked for q while and agreed
to disagree. Up to now they have
been deadlocked.
The bone of contention is the con-
troll of the city OF Tangier in Morocco,
That doesn't sound very important,
but If you will get out a map you will
see that tip of Morocco juts out
northward until only a narrow strip
of water separates it from Gibraltar.
British Control
- Now Glib" that rocky point at the
south of Spain, has for hundred
years been in British hands. In the
old days it's cannon dominated the mar
row waters.
France never relished this. Spain
didn't like it.
Back in tie early nineteen hun
dreds France and Germany were both
looking hungrily at Morocco with its
vast resources. The French outgen-
eraled Germany and got the upper
hand. Since the war, with Germany
smashed, the French have become en-
tirely dominant.
Nominally. Morocco has a sultan
and the French are his advisers.
Really, Morocco is a French colony,
to be more and more absorbed into
the French system.
But from early days the Spanish
laid claim to a sphere of influence"
on the northern coast. Only Tan
gier was excluded Up to now 1t
has been a sort Of internationally
governed city. The Moors rule It
under the guidance OF French
British and Spanish officers.
But Spain wants Tangier fer its
own. It would then have a setof for
Gibraltar On the other hand, the
French say Tangier should be re-
stored to It's real master. the sultan
OF Morocco.
Which, as the English say. Is pure
"eye-wash." Restored TO the sultan
Tangier would soon be French
Gibraltar
French Ambitions
The French already have the
worlds biggest army. They are al
ready talking about building a big
submarine feet. They already have
so predominant place in the air
that the alarmed British are increas-
ing their appropriations for military
airplanes.
Now, II the French camped in
TangieH they would have a place
where they could erect huge forti-
fications with high.power cannon.
They would have a jumping-of place
for their airplanes. They would have
a lair for their submarines.
That is why England insists that
Tangier continue an international
city.

lWI the Fri, now called the "She-
Ill nandoah," was being formally
christened by Secretary DENLY at Lake
hurst, N. j., today, the Navy Depart
ment here was making plans for the
arrival of her big sister ship, the zR-3,

The latter, constructed for this Gov

at the Zeppelin works, will be flown
to America by German officers and
crew. Capt. George w. Steele her
future commander, will be on board.
but merely as an observer.
Commercial Craft
While the Fri was built by This
Government as a military airshlp for
long-range scout duty with the Navy,
the ZR-3 was designed as a CONNER
cial craft for carrying passengers and
freight.

RIGA and return without stopping, or
make a trip around the world with
but two landings en- route.
Carries Thirty Passengers
The German-made ship, capable Of
carrying thirty passengers ard hav-
ing comfortable appointments. will be
used by the Government to develop
commercial aviation in this country.
Navy experts, say this big ship could
make q circuit trip of New York, ST.
Louis, Los Angeles and back to New
York in ninety-four hours, stopping
long enough at each city to take on
and discharge passengers and mail.
There is also talk of eventually using
her In two-day transatlantic service
and of making a trial flight to the
north pole.

What Editors
Are Saying
Democracy
South Bend News-Timcsl

The welcome given to Lloyd George
on his arrival in this country comes
from a recognition that in him the
world has one Of the leaders for the
preservation of democracy.
There is another warning which he
brings which is quite as significant
as his plea for international unity Of
thought.
That is his suggestion that democ-
racy as a theory is falling before the
forces Of autocracy and that the big
struggle of every country that has a
democratic spirit is to resent the en-
enactment of arbitrary power.
Listen to this man. He is a great
man. You may not agree with it or
with him, but he is by far the great
est Englishman, and as such what he
says is important.
