Science

How will the United States take
care of its population by the end
of the present century,.
This is a question that science will
have to answer and for which 1t
must provide the remedies.
BY that time the United States will
have a population of seven hundred
million. The country, as a whole,
is large enough to support in com
fort that much population, with
scientific aids in agriculture and
manufacture But people refuse to
distribute themselves evenly over
the earth's surface, even over that
portion Of it that is fertile.
When people have a choice they
prefer TO live in cities, as a rule. New
York, according to its present rate
Of growth. will have nearly thirty
million inhabitants by the end of the
century. Other cities will increase
to an enormous number. These in
creases can be figured fairly accu-
rately on the basis of the present
rate.
The only answer to the problem
other than that science must find a
way out, lies in the "Malthusian doc
trine," which predicts that vice. war
and pestilence will check any popu-
lation that becomes too crowded.

So there was nothing to do, accord
ing to the law, but admit the woman
and deport the baby.
Hurried appeal to Washington,
however, struck a responsive chord
Acting Secretary of Labor White

strict letter of the law and ordered

Taken for Ride
His parents then took him for a
joy ride up Broadway. over to the
railroad station, and caught the first
train out to Youngstown.
There Cullumbine, who has a good
job as machinist, expects to remain
until his citizenship, as well as the
baby's, will be fully established.
The mesh through which the baby
wriggled proved too fine for 700
grown-ups, who arrived a few days
later on the steamer Dante Alighieri.
They were detained because the rul-
ing under which they had hoped to
be admitted was rescinded while they
were at sea. And now they are held
tight in the red tape Of the immigra-
ton law.

He Is for Bonus

To the Editor Of The Times
The timely action of Congress in
passing the bonus bill should merit
the whole hearted approval of all
fair minded citizens regardless of
party affiHation. The note on the
measure indicated it was anything
but a partisan note. All fair minded
people and those who have the
proper appreciation Of values should
and do regard the bonus law as
something we undoubtedly owe our
valiant sons and brothers who so
periodically and unseIfshly gave
up their positions and also severed
their home ties two actions which
in themselves merit our unqualified
approval and respect. But they
Furthermore evinced their wiling
ness to lay down their lives for
democracy and do their part toward
stamping out forever the curse Of
militarism.
The writer is sorry that the In
dianapolis Chamber of Commercs
should be obliged to swallow it's
pride now after making such
strenuous and Intellectual fight
against the bonus. Here is hoping
they are taking their we'll merited
rebuke gracefully and that the next
time a measure comes up for the
benefit of the masses the Chamber
Of Commerce will be found on the
winning side.

The June Bride
BY HAL COCHRAN

For year after year she's been
patiently planning the day when
she'd start life anew. Through home
keeping books she's been looking
while spanning the time till her
dream would come true.
A little old key to little old chest
is turned, now and then, by her
hands. She opens the lid and she
puts things to rest for a reason the
world understands.
The finest Of garments are buried
away and her thought of their flu
ture is bliss. Her Hope Chest will
hold them in store till the day when
she changes to Mrs. from Miss.
The dreams Of the future are won
derful dreams for the girl who is
planning to wed. The world is all
kind, in her thoughts, so it seems,
and she thrills in just looking ahead.
And this is the month when Dan
Cupid steps out and makes many
love dreams come true. To all Of the
June brides we willingly shout,
Here's luck, and heres lookin' at

G. O. p. FEARS
FRIDAY THE
THIRTEENTH
Republicans Hope to Close
Convention by Thursday
Evening,
By HARRY B. HUNT
NEA SerriCe Writer

ET7 ASHINGTON, June 5.-Pro-
IWI ceedings Of the Cleveland
C1 convention may be speeded
up in order to make possible an ad
journment late on the evening Of
Thursday, June u.
For more than a few of the dele
gates view with apprehension the
possibility of the convention con-
Guiding it's activities on Friday, the
Thirteenth.
Even among the leaders there
are many who face unafraid the
combined threats of Democrats and
Independents, but who lose their
nerve and complacency at the pros
pect of picking a vice presidential
candidate and winding up the af-
fairs of the session on a date popu-
larly reputed to be laden with dis
tress and disaster.
OF course these gentlemen are not
superstitious. They'll tell you rank
ly they are not.
But then, they ask, why take a
chance? Why tempt Fate?
Platform of Interest
Democratic interest in the Cleve-
land convention extends chiefly to
the sort Of platform the G. o. P.
carpenters build.
For the Democratic program calls
for the construction of a platform
which will be more attractive and
spacious than that Of the Repub-
Ilicans-one on which there will be
room for all who fear faulty con-
struction may cause a collapse in
the G.. O. P. structure or who don
like their associates there.
incidentally, also. the Democratic
architects will study the plan Of the
Cleveland platform in the hope Of
locating weak spots. For in the
campaign the plan Of battle to de
feat Coolidge calls first and fore
most for knocking the props from
under the promises and program
which his party chiefs will lay down
for him.
Look TO st. PAM
Next to the matter Of the Repub-
lican platform. Democratic interest
now centers in the sort IF showing
which will be made by the Farmer
Labor party convention at ST. Paul
June II.
For on the extent to which that
third party movement makes head
way depends very largely the latent
danger to the old parties in the Ia
Toilette movement, which will take
shape at the conference in Cleveland
July 4.
If the s. Paul convention reveals
a substantial following. in the face Of
Irepudiation by La Toilette and by
the American Federation Of Labor.
II may mean a split in the indcpend-
ent vote in the Northwest. which
would result in not merely "a third
but a fourth party this fan.

Who is the greatest baseball
pitcher in the big leagues to-

This is largely a matter of opin-

1913 runs earned per game This is
the lowest figure since 1920, when
Grover Alexander had an average
