By The Associated Press.
 New York. Dec. 3o.--Onc in every five industrial families apparently moves al least once a year.
 A study by the Metropolitan Life Insurance company of transfcrs re- corded among is 19,oQooo0 indus trial policy holders east Of the Rocky Mountains further reveals that these families seem 70 hold to no general moving days in spring or fall. They move impartially all year round,

 This mobility, the company's ec- cnomists believe, indicates that such tenants would utilize promptly any housing relief offered to them, and would eeom potential security for in 'estors in off seasons" residential building.

SAVANTS RANGE
 SCIENTIFIC FIELD
Talk on Earthquakes, Diabetes,
 X,Rays, and Varied Subjects

Washington, Dec, 30. -- Latest scientific observations ranging from causes 10 the effect of X.rays on fertility were the subject of numerous papers prepared for the general and sectional meetings today of the convention of the American Association for the Ad- >ancement of Science.
 At the formal opening of the con- Ncntion last night Secretary Hughes delivered an address emphasizing the value of international coopcra- uon in scientific research, and Dr. ( 'harles D, Walcott, retiring prcT- dent of the association, spoke on Science and Service" Al a sepa- rate meeting Of the American Poll uCaI Science association. an affiliat- cd society, Sir ESme Howard, the British ambassador, in an address on British Policy and the Balance Of Power" urged q spirit Of friendly understanding of Englands position in world politics.
 Outlining special studies under taken in the oCeangraphic research work now being directed by the navy department, Dr. Austin II. Clark, of the national museum, in one of the papers today said the possible rela- tion between earthquakes and mud deposits at the mouths of great rivers formed one field of investiga- ton. It Is now believed, he said, that the millions of tons Of mud laid on the ocean floor by such rivers cause inequalities in weight as be- tween the land and the ocean bed which start the crust slipping and so cause quakes
 A study of the volume of river deposits, he said should assist in earthquake predictions.
 i Observations of the effect ot eX- posture to X-rays on the fertility of animals were described in paper by Professor l.. H. Synder of the North Carolina College of Agricul- turc, Exposure of male rats Co N-ray, he said, had rendered them entirely sterile at the end of two months, the animals regaining fer 'ility when no longer subjected to the rays.
 Confirmation Of the theory that diabetes Is caused by failure of the minute bits of tissue, known as the isets of langerhans, in the pancrca- tic glands 10 perform their func- ton of secrcting into the blood the substance known as 'insulin." and used as a remedy for the disease was announced in a paper by Dr. J J. R. Macleod. of Toronto univer. sty. In experiments with fish, Dr
 Macleod said, it had been showr that failure Of the supply Of insulir was wholly responsible for the dis. ease which has been an undotermin. cd question since discovery Of the in sulin treatment,

REDS CONTINUE CAMPAIGN TO
CAPTURE THE TRADES UNIONS

By International Labor News Service
WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. A.
Communist determination to capture,
if possible, the trade union organiza-
tions affiliated to the international
Federation of Trade Unions, with
headquarters at Amsterdam, is re-
vealed in reports from that organiza-
ton just received at American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor headquarters here.
Correspondence between the Am

ell of the Communist All-Russian
Federation of Trade Unions at Nos
COW shows the continued connivance
Of the soviet powers to cut away one
by one the organizations affiliated to
the Amsterdam organization.
Reds Aim at Disruption
From the American labor point of
view it is astonishing that the Am
sterdam organization should have al
lowed itself to be drawn into what
clearly amounts to negotiations, but
This is held not to be surprising, in
view of the well known attitude OF

WESTERN BEET GROWER
IN SUGAR TARIFF

One of the many problems confront
ing the sugar beet farmer and the
beet sugar manufacturer is the con-
tinued effort of refining interests of
the East to have the tariff on sugar
reduced.
They will probably be unsuccessful
in these attempts to injure the beet
sugar industry because the slight tar
if which enables it to exist is neces-
sary for the farmers in the beet
growing sections of the country who
in the long run are the ones most
vitality interested in the rate of duty.
Further, there has been no testi-
mony submitted to the tariff commits
sion which tends to show that the
present rate of duty of $1.761h per
cwt. exceeds the difference in the
cost of producing sugar in. Cuba and
in the United States. This fact must
be shown before any change is war
ranted.
