Human Wireless
Declared Possible

Recalling the experiments of Charcot
and William James, in Paris, Georges
Lakhovsky, who has done profound re-
search work in radioactive energy, is
conducting experiments which he pre-
diets will result In the possibility of
human communication by emanations,
or waves, from the body. James and
Charcot, placing a subject in a catalep-
tic state, in dark room, observed blue
emanations from the extremities on one
side of the body and orange on the other
side-possibly comparable to positive
and negative electric impulsions
After many years, during which the
work Of the earlier scientists was almost
forgotten, Lakhovsky summarizes the
results of his inquiries in the definite
statement that these emanations exist,
and predicts that they will be used in
human wireless" communication. All
animals. he says, have such waves
radiating from their bodies, and he ex-
plains mysterious communications of
animals by this. He offers this hypothe-
sis as explaining such facts as the
Mason bees extraordinary sense Of di-
rection, which baffled Henri Fabre; the
sureness of migratory birds in flying in
perfect formation toward an objective,
even in the darkest night, and the power
Of predatory insects and birds in search
ing out their prey.
NJ. Lakhovsky predicts. furthermore,
that understanding of these waves will
add immeasurably to the resources Of
physicians in diagnosing disease. His
theory is that the human body emana-
tionS vary uniformly in accordance with
the germ causing sickness, and that it
will be possible to ascertain from Their,
the nature of the illness and combat 1t
by opposed radiation.

through the story of the
Smithsonian Institution, of which ne
is the secretary and the actual head.
But it seems best to intertwine the
tales. A great scientist. A great
institution. A man who has been
happy through long life because
he has been able to busy himself at
the work in which he is most in
terested. An organization whose
name among scientists throughout
the world is as the hallmark on
minted metal.
Seventy four years old. Tall, slen-
der, erect. Straightforward, kind,
fine, firm. He spends his summers
among the higher peaks OF the Cana
dian Rockies, searching for the fossils
which have enabled him to set the
time when life first appeared ~on this
globe farther back than his predeces-
sors in science had thought possible.

Suppose we begin with the Smith

Others have added to the original

Yet today that fund amounts to only
little more than a million dollars Its
total is not as much as the annual
income of the Carnegie Institution of
Washington. Its income is but S63,-

Here seems to be a discrepancy.

buildings. The Smithsonian directs
