The northwest benefits, therefore.

SCIENTISTS TO EXPLORE
ABYSSES OF CANSIGLIO
Unknown Underground Area.
Deepest in World. Honeycombed
With Caverns and Deep Pits.

ROME. September Am expedition
of distinguished scientists has left
Milan for Vittorio. in the Venetia
Province, to explore the unknown
abysses of the Cansiglio.
The plateau of CansigIio is honey
combined with caverns and deep
natural pits. one of which. called Bus
de la Lum, is considered to be the
deepest in the world. 1t is more than
1920 feet deep and it's mouth is about
80 yards long and 90 yards wide.
This is the first attempt to explore
Bus de la Lum. 1t presents consid-
erable difficulties owing to the COM
plete darkness in which the descent
must be made, the danger of falling
stones, the uneven walls of the cavity
and the long descent.
The equipment of the expedition in
cludes 200 yards of iron ropes and
ladders, telephones, explosives, COM

MORE BEARDED WOMEN.
Scientist Sees Connection With
Bobbed Hair.

BERLIN. September 1.-Bearded
women are on the increase. This state
ment is made by DR.. Adolph He'll
bron, a German scientist. who blames
the Disagreement upon women's in
vasion of mans domain of activities.
THE women of the future" he says,
may have longer boards than any
bearded woman in any circus. AS
woman exercises more and more the
functions formerly belonging to man,
she also begins to assume a mascu-
line growth of hair
DR.. Heilbron cites many well known
anthropologists in support of his
statement that there has been a de-
cidcd increase in the number of
bearded women. He further expresses
the belief that families wherein gem
erations Of women bob their hair will
develop bearded women as a parallel
phenomenon.

NEEDLESS LOSSES,
DEFENSE DAY TEXT
Secretary Weeks Likens
Country's Non-Preparedness
to PreventabIe Illnesses.

Secretary Weeks called attention in
a statement yesterday to statistics
which. he said. show that about one
half of our population is sub-normaf
and the country suffers annually a
loss of $500. 100000 by preventable
illness and durable physical defects
of it's citizens.
This situation, the War Secretary
asserted. places the Nation in the
position of having to defend itself
with one arm tied behind its back.
and judged from defense viewpoint,
"iS serious" To aid its correction.
Mr. Weeks said he was hopeful that
the medical men in each community
as patriotic service will issue
friendly advice to their fellow citi-
zens'' on September u. Defense Test
day, and that fathers and mothers will
have the physical condition of their
children investigated at the same
time.
Fundamental TO Defense.
NO day would be more appropriate
for an examination of the vitality of
our citiz. nShiu," the Sc retary de-
clared. 1T is fundamental to defense
and Fundamental to citizenship.
with regard to physique. draft
statistics, life insurance experience
and indus rial studies indicate that
dO0ut nail OF our ptpuldl,pH - SUI
normal. The draft statistics show that
46S of the 2,75n.000 whose medical
records were complete were defective.
1T is ronSe"Nativeiy estimated that
preventable illness and rurahle phys
iral defects cause an industrial loss Of
at least Sl.J0o.000 per year. An ap-
praisal cannot be made of the distress
and suffering involved.
Citizenship Weakness Serious.
From q defense point. the present
physical weakness in our citizenship
as a whole is serious. 1t places the
Nation in the position of having to
defend itself with one arm tied behind
its back IT is just as serious from
a citizenship standpoint.
at may he too late for any con-
StructiVe action on Il nation wide
scale to cradicat" the pSyScal weak
ness of the present generation, but II
is certainly not too late to prevent
the on-comiuS generation from de-
veloping similar defects.
