The project of sending American

New York, April 3.-The body of
an elderly man who died in Bronx
hospital Monday under the name OF
-. n. Orlow, doctor of philosophy, but
whose death certificate bears the name
OF Johann Salvador, long mysteriously
missing Arcbduke of Austria, is TO
lie in state at st. Andrews Church
on Fifth avenue.
So strong is the conviction among
his friends that he was the archduke
that some of them propose 10 keep his
body in a vault so that a small birth
mark on his right arm may establish
his identity forever at some later time
when the royal documents are found,
it is said.
As far as possible, it is stated. the
funeral will be accompanied by the
honors to which an archudke is en-
titled.

Good Coast Guard Work.

The House yesterday made an ap.
preparation Of s20,5s7,S35 for Coast
Guard activities, part of which will
be available for curbing rum running.
Current news dispatches tell of the
effective work being done by the
Coast Guard off the New Jersey coast
engaged in conducting a blockade
around the rum fleet lying 80 miles
at sea.
The report describing the operations
Of the blockaders say that from 800, 900
to 100000 cases of liquors have been
bottled up" aboard the rum runners.
The rum fleet made the strategical
mistake Of anchoring too close to-
gether. The Coast Guard vessels Cir.
cled around the anchored ships. pre-
venting the motor boats from the
shore from communicating with them.
In the course of debate on the pend
ing appropriation bill in the House
there was discussion Of the enforce
ment Of the Volstead law. Mr.. La
Guardia contended there was impera-
tive need for a radical shake-up in
the prohibition force and a change of
policy. He asserted that the Federal
Government is only playing with the
problem now. Mr.. La Guardia wanted
three or four times as much money
as is being appropriated for enforce
ment so that the work can be made
effective.
Opinions differ as to the practical
effectiveness of enforcement, but the
general fact stands out that the Gov
ernment is gradually increasing the
value Of enforcement against the
heavy odds under which it labors. In
many localities the Government is
playing a lone hand, lacking the CO.
operation of State and local authori-
ties.

The Metric System.

One Of the organizations holding it's
annual meeting here in connection
with the assemblage of scientific bodies
this week is the Metric Association,
formed to promote the adoption in the
United States, in conformity with
other nations, of the metric system
Of weights and measures. Speakers
at the sessions are discussing various
phases of this important question and
are reporting progress in the work Of
spreading the metric principle in
American industries.
One Of the most striking exhibits
of the metric meeting is a graph"
which shows the metric advance in
the world since the adoption Of this
system by France a century and
quarter ago. The line of adoption,
nation by nation, advances upward
on the chart almost vertically. Only
two countries now remain outside Of
the metric scale, the United States
and Great Britain. Unfortunately,
these are the two greatest trading ma
tions. Their retention Of the old units
of weights and measures causes great
confusion in commerce and industry.
The present effort of the Metric AS
sociation is to bring about the adop-
ton of the system by both countries,
making this 100 per cent metric
world"
Progress has been made in the
United States in this respect. Metric
weights and measures were made legal
by Congress in 1886 and were adopted
in coinage in 1876 and for the medi-
cal work Of the Navy Department in
1878. The medical branch of the War
Department adopted the system in
1894, and in the same year electrical
measurements were standardized ac-
cording to the same system. The Pub
lie Health Service adopted it in 1902.
In 1913 it was recognized and estab-
lished in Porto Rico. In 1918 it
was used by the American expedition
ary forces in France. Various
branches of the Government use the
system, such as the Bureau Of Stand
ards, the Bureau Of Chemistry and
the Coast and Geodetic Survey. Nu-
merous industries in this country use
it exclusively. Radio wave lengths are
expressed in metric terms.
In the face of this record Of prog
ress it is idle to assert that the United
States will not eventually adopt the
metric system as its basis Of weights
and measures. Missionary work to
that end is being effectively done by
scientific men, by manufacturers and
by exporters. A bill is pending in Con-
gress providing for the official adop-
ton Of the system in all the Govern
ment practices. Its passage is only a
question of time.

week, Trotsky definitely refused to
| obey the order of the Soviet trium-
virate to go to the Caucasus. He was
summoned before the commissary to
explain. and was then taken into GUS
tody and told that he must either re-
main prisoner or leave Moscow i'm
mediately. He is. now, it Is said, being

the commissaries hold their meetings.
lie is forbidden to use the telephone
or the mails or to receive visitors.
The dispatch from Berlin which con-
veys the information from Moscow
adds that no confirmation Is availa-
BILE. Naturally the Soviet authorities
will not permit full disclosure Of the
Trotsky problem. For the Trotsky
question is one OF fundamental i'm
portance. 1t signifies inharmony in
communism. 1t may be sign Of dis
ruption. 1t certainly indicates that
there is a wide and deep breach be-
tween the erstwhile Soviet leaders on
essential questions.
There is no particular interest in
Trotsky's specific fate. 1t is what the
Trotsky trouble stands for that is of
concern to the world. If Russian com.
munism is breaking up there will be
rejoicing For until communism as
centered at Moscow fails as govern
ment force there will be danger to
other states. This does not necessarily
mean universal or a widespread de-
sire for the re-establishment Of the
Romanoff rule in Russia. That rule
was not particularly satisfactory. It
was tyrannical, and was only liberal
with grave doubt as to sincerity.
Russian reorganization is probably
proceeding even now away from COM
munism, though without avowal by
the leaders of their departure from
red principles. OF the sincerity of
such changes there is extreme doubt.
But the fact is nevertheless to be well
coined that for expediency the prin-
ciples Of the November, 1917, revolu-
tion are being scrapped.
Whether Trotsky is in the Caucasus
or the Kremlin makes little differ
ence. OF much greater Importance is
whether the people of Russia are re-
sisting Soviet measures, as they are
described as doing in some recent dis
patches.

tivity, aloofness and aristocracy. In
subordination is an evil thing, some
times, while at other times 1t Is only
the display Of an independent spirit.
The charge of political activity comes
as a shock to some people in the East.
Many of them believe that everybody
In Kansas is overfiowing with political
activity, and that in Kansas It is
thought a virtue. Perhaps the chan
cellor's political activity was not the
same kind as the governors political
activity and there may have been a
clash.
The charge Of aloofness Is a serious
charge against anybody, but against
the head Of State university it is q
most serious thing. This chancellor
may have declined an invitation to
speak at some dedication, fiag.raising,
portrait presentation, dinner. supper
or breakfast, or at a quilting bee, taffy
pulling or corn husking. Perhaps he
wanted to spend q quiet evening in his
den at the university. smoke his pipe
and read Capper's Weekly. If the
chancellor has fiunked on any Of the
duties Of the head OF a university the
governor must be sustained.
The most serious charge which the
governor brings against the head Of
the Kansas University is that he is
aristocratic. To bring that charge
against a public man in Kansas seems
to raise more trouble than the over.

Science and Humanity.

Science is the servant of man. 1t is
the means of aiding humanity to a
better understanding and a fuller use
OF the forces of nature. 1t is an effort
TO solve the problems of the cosmic
elements to the end that civilization
may advance.
The present session of the American
Association for the Advancement of
Science in this city is marked, it is
announced, by a resumption Of efforts
suspended during the great war to
discover new fields Of knowledge and
to distribute and popularize the facts
learned by science in all it's branches
Formerly the man Of science was
aloof from his fellows, working along
his chosen line of research, intent
upon the discovery of some elusive
fact of nature. Nowadays he is a con-
tributor to the fund Of common in
formation from which dividends are
paid in terms of advance in effective.
ness of production, of protection from
disease, of increase in the facility of
communication, of extension of the
frontiers Of the disable universe.
Museums are no longer arid collec-
tons of mysterious materials gathered
by scientific searchers and laboratory
experimenters, but are places OF pcpu-
lar instruction. They present to view
In manner to be readily understood
the marvels of discovery and invention
and development. They are largely
visited by an interested public.
In thus resuming it's program of dis
tributing and popularizing the accom-
plishments Of science this association
is making a valuable contribution to
the national resources Of knowledge.
The actual sessions of the association
may be too learned in the terms of dis
cussion for the layman to follow with
full understanding. But as a result
OF skillful preparation Of bulletins
couched in palmer terms full informa-
ton is made available and is eagerly
read.
Science knows no boundaries, no
limitations 1t is constantly pushing
forward, outward and onward in all
directions. And as never before it is
turning its discoveries to practical
use. This present session here at the
Capital Of one of the most important
bodies in the scientific world, compris-
Ing every branch of endeavor and re-
search, will be notable in the records
OF this center Of conventions and will
mark an advance in the relations be-
tween the scientific and the lay mind
