A Russian Relates
Sun Spots to War

The pacifstS, are working on a
wrong theory. They may get some
people to sign pledges and pass res
olutions never to engage in war
again, even in self-defense or the
defense of humanity, but it will do
no good. Prof. Tchijewsky, 4 Rus
sian scientist, has been looking up
history of sun spots as we'll as the
history of wars. and finds that they
are SO remarkably related as to
prove-to his mind. at least-that
the relation is caused and not merely
accidental.
When the sun spots become numer.
Gus, a portentous stirring in human
affairs is also noted AS the sun
spots recede toward the minimum,
we quiet down in corresponding de-
gree. In each century, he finds, there
are nine periods of unusual disturb
ance on the solar surface. and like
wise nine Synchronous outbursts of
political and military activity.
Doubtless Prof. Tchijewsky's theory
will attract good deal of curious
historians are likely to conclude that
he has had to manhandle astronomi-
cal and historical facts rather vio-
lently in order to get them into an
apparently harmonious teamwork
You can prove almost anything in
history or science, if only those to
whom you are addressing your argu-
ments are sufficiently unprejudiced
by an excess of accurate knowledge
in those fields. The Russian savant
will have a difficult task, however, il
he attempts to. prove that 1t was
only a sun spot which sent the
kaiser's troops across Belgium and
over the French border in 1slk-

The Two-Thirds Issue.

That ma jority rule proposition of
the McAdoo boomers is furnishing the
liveliest topic of discussion in these
tense days preceding the Democratic
convention. Those who are opposed to
McAdoo. boomers themselves for other
candidates. notably Gov. Smith, are
ridiculing the argument that the adop-
tion by the San Francisco convention
of the rules of the House of Repre-
sentatives in fact abrogated the two
thirds rule. Franklin Roosevelt, the
Smith boom manager, has consulted
lawyers and proclaims his conviction
that the 1920 convention was merely
| guided by the House rules on par
liamentary procedure, and that the
| twothirds rule was not affected by
their adoption. The fact that Cox was
| not declared nominated until he had
passed the two-thirds point is cited as
proof.
But the McAdoo boomers are not to
| be downed so readily. McAdoo's ad.
| visers are preparing to urge him on his
arrival in New York tomorrow to chal-
| lenge Gov. Smith to unite with him TO
abolish the two-thirds rule. Their
argument is that without enough
votes to reach the two-thirds point
the McAdoo strength will last only a
| few ballots and disintegration will
soon set in. If the two-t1irds rule is
abrogated McAdoo's strength, now
toJo 20 ~ xryiu 20,
put him over in a few ballots. There
are 1,098 votes in the convention: $50
will nominate on a majority vote,
while 1872 are needed on a two-thirds
basis.
Nothing deing:' is most likely to be
the Smith reply to any such proposal
il McAdoo should make it. OF course.
IL the Smith strength is as great as
his boomers claim he would have al
most an even chance with McAdoo for
the majority goal. But, as a matter
of fact. even the most ardent of the
Smith contenders knows that McAdoo
has an ledge on the situation. The
Smith people can stand by the tradi-
tional rule of the party without con-
| Tossing weakness The twothirds prin-
ciple has prevailed from the beginning
of Democratic conventions. Its main
tenance has become a definite policy.
It's abrogation, if ever undertaken,
should be for future effect and not for
immediate application to the conven-
ton at hand. Thus the Smith argu-
ment may and probably will run.
Unless when McAdoo arrives in
New York tomorrow he concludes
that there is danger in a fight on the
two-thirds rule-for a defeat on this
point would be a sad blow to his
prestige-a lively row Is likely to be
precipitated at the outset of the meet
ing. Not even the mellifluent voice Of
Keynoter Pat Harrison could quell the
storm that would arise.

British Women May Vote
At 2I Under New Bill

The Macdonald government has de-
olared its willingness to accept and
approve a bill that will admit women
to the suffrage at the same age as
men-twenty-one years. Considering
the present conditions in the House
of Commons this is almost tanta-
mount to assuring the passage of the
bill 1t is iuconceivable that a min
istry should be upset on such an is
sue. There will be "hard-boiled" op-
position to the change. but not of any
great commercial strength. Probably
women of all parties who are now
voters. having reached the age of
thirty. are close to unanimous for the
innovation.
Most students of comparative sex
DEVELOPMENT at twenty-one regard
girls as rather more advanced than
boys, on an average more serious and
with a keener sense or all the obliga-
tions of life. There never was any
logic in favor of barring women from
the ballot till their thirtieth year. 1t
was only a phenomenon of British
conservatism.
The proposed measure will add, it
is figured, 100000 names to the poll
lists. That on the whole this will
benefit the Labor party more than 1t
benefits the Tories or the Liberals is
larger families and more girls grow
ing into womanhood. But there are
some things that are inevitable in the
development of a principle, and this
is one of them. Liberals and Tories
face condition and not a theory and
bow accordingly to such inevitability.

I. W. W.'s in California,

Those 1. W. W. folks who met the
other night at San Pedro. Calf, and
expressed themselves in terms Of con.
tempt for the American sailors who
lost their lives in the explosion on the
battleship Mississippi have had occa-
sion since to realize that they are
themselves liable to sudden detona-
tion., A crowd of men, some of whom
were dressed in naval uniforms, de-
scended on the meeting and wrecked
the place, administering rough treat
ment to some OF the participants.
Then the radicals threatened to blow
up the morgue where lay the bodies Of
the dead seamen. Following this came
a tar party. Nobody knows exactly
what happened, but there are evidences
that four persons were given the ira.
ditional feather coat, and that one Of
them, at least, was q member Of the
f..W. W.. -
tbs reported from San Pedro that
