The Laws and Processes ofNature in All Natural
and Human Relations



T7S 1T not practicable for the American Association for the Advance
ment of Science to organize a progressive, live committee OF men and
ii women to deal with the popuarizng Of scientific knowledge? It
might arrange special sessions for the public to which the layman
could go with the feeling that they were for his entertainment and his IN
struction and not solely to arouse the interest of specialists in their par
ticular field Of research.
OF all human beings, the child is the greatest and most active invest-
gator of all that pertains to his environment. Why not provide for a
junior section of the American association, and last and n some respects
the most important, a womans section and sessions, at which all the selen-
tfc problems of peculiar interest to woman could be considered?
Then there is the much-discussed business man, who has a more OF
less hazy conception of science and scientific method, depending OF whether
he considers it affects his interest for good or evil He would be a better
business man, a better citizen and more successful in all his relations IN
life it. he had a working knowledge Of scientific method and principles at
his command.
Every member Of our association should work individually and col
lectively according to his or her opportunity and ability In supporting the
scientific method and in insisting that, in all education OF every KIND ana
degree and for all classes, the purpose is to develop without prejudice or
preconcepton of any kind a knowledge of the facts, the laws and the proc
e@es of nature in all natural and human relations. The natural weakness
and incompIeteness Of all things Of human origin will frequently battle,
mislead and confuse, and may eve apparently bring temporary defeat, but
in the long run there is no other way to eradicate sciosophy, advance the
physical. mental and moral welfare of the race and justify our existence
and opportunities for service as sentient human beings.

CONGRESS ACTS.TO
AID WAR VETERANS

Strenuous efforts by American Lee
gion rehabilitation and Legislative com
mittee representatives obtained the
passage in the closing days of the con
gresse session of a $10,OO0,0OO appropri-
alton for new hospital construction and
of the Johnson bill amending the World
war veterans act of 1924 in the in
terest of the disabled.
The hospital appropriation makes
provision for 5000 additional beds.
The johnson bill includes a number of
features improving rehabilitation adj
ministration. 1t also carries provisions
~bene1ting some 5000 disabled men
who have heretofore been denied COM
pensation because of the so-called will
full misconduct provisions of the Reed
Johnson bill.
These bills were caught with many
others In a legislative jam as the ses-
sion approached its close. Only quick
action by the Legion succeeded in saw
ing them. Legion insistence resulted
In the passage of the Johnson bill by
the house, which was In no mood to
accept senate amendments emasculat-
ing the provisions of the bill as sent to
that body and was disposed to abandon
the measure.
Among the beneficial features of the
Johnson bill which were stricken out
were provisions for. a Veterans Blu
reau medical corps, added benefits for
tuberculosis benefciaries, re~instate-
ment benefits on Insurance for the dis
abled and extension beyond June 30,
1926, Of the time limit for training on
feasible veterans. This action of the
senate shows, Legion officials declare,
that 1t is essential that a special vet
erans' committee be created in the up
per body to handle all World war vet
Grams legislation, as was done in the
house in 1924.
Provision for hospital construction
is also declared by Legion rehabilita-
ton officials to be inadequate. The
former high water mark of $4,000 vet
Grams of the World war hospitalized
by the Veterans Bureau is expected to
be surpassed In the very near future.
The number has been growing recently
at the rate of approximately 500 adj
missions a week.
In view Of these conditions, rehabili-
tation officials of the Legion recon-
mended a hospital construction appro-
priation Of $15,0OO,O0O, calling for 5000
additional beds. There is already a
serious shortage of proper beds for
tuberculosis, and neuro-psychiatric
cases, according to reports from almost
every district.

ASTHMA FROM HOUSE
u S

a STHMA, like hay fever, was I'M
"A til recently a disease which no
one could explain. You either had It
or you didn't have 1t. If you had It
you were subject to sudden uncon-
troilable spasms, when you couldn't
breathe, when you choked and gasped
for air. Other people, perhaps your
immediate relatives, sat In the same
room, breathed the same air, ate the
same foods, did the same work
were entirely unaffected. The spasms
would come on without warning, they
would disappear without $ Some
patients claimed that their attacks
were brought ON by going into a stable
driving behind a horse or even pass
ing a horse on the street. But tins
seemed too ridiculous to consider.
Then 1t was found that certain
foods or drugs would attacks ! p
certain persons. Now 1t is pretty well
proven that most cases of asthma are
caused by inhaling some substance
that is harmless to most people but
irritating to the asthmatic. Like hay
fever, it may be caused by fine seeds
from plants, by dander from a horse,
by dust, by chemicals. such as forma-
lin, or whatever is the irritating sub
stance which causes a spasm IN eacn
particular person.
This personal sensItiveness to q
food, a drug, an odor or a dust, which
may produce asthma, hay fever,
rash or vomiting in the sensitive per-
son but which produces no result
whatever In the normal person. Is
called aIlergy. What causes 1t we
don't know.
One of these substances Is house
dust, the lust that collects In the
ordinary house. that fills the rugs,
the cushions and the curtains, that
settles on the nantes and the tops
Of the book cases. Why it should
be especially irritating to some peo-
pie and harmless to others, We don't
know. Out Of every 327 asthma cases
which Doctor Cooke studied, 100 or
81 per cent were sensitive to house
dust.
This may explain why some house
wives always have an attack OF
asthma after spring house cleaning
and why some men. who have been
accused of laziness because they tried
to get out Of beating the rugs, were
really trying to avoid a spell Of
asthma.

Variety of Hazard Signs Constitute a Menace
to Every Motorist
By THOMAS P. HENRY, President A. A. A.

The motorist runs into every kind of design, color and symbol and
he must learn a new set Of hazard signs whenever he goes into new terri
tory. This lack Of uniformity which is the bane of the highways today APP
plies to all types Of signs, the caution signs at danger points, the traffic
control signs, and the distance and direction signs a we'll
Proper road marking is essential to maximum service, while poor
road marking and the variety of signs for the same purpose constitute a
standing menace to every motorst. The inevitable reaction of the motor
list to the confusing variety of signs is that while motoring he misses the
warning for a bad curve o r a sunken road entirely and is further confused
by the prevalence Of commercial signs, many of which specifically initiate
warning signs.
Before there is uniformity there must be a national code subject to
ratification and adoption by all the states. This is something behind which
all motorists can get, and the A. A A. is putting it forward as a practical
and urgent step in a safety program.

Most Serious Evil Colleges Have to Contend
With Is Athletics
By DIR. SAMUEL +. cAPEN, University Of Buffalo.

The most serious evil that the colleges have to contend with is the
present status of athletics. It has become the principal industry 0 the
colleges and no intellectual attainment AN compete with 1T.
1t has also become a very expensive proposition for our colleges, be-
cause of three big factors. The first Of these is that in seeking players Of
rare physical endowment it entails dishonesty, as boys are hired to go to
college to play on teams, in spite of suberfuges to hide this fact.
The second factor is the athletic coaches 1t Is known that they e
ceve more than professors in many cases. | consider the typical coach an
example of evolutionary retardation.
A third item is the cost of the paraphernalia used in connection with
athletics, not the least of these being the college stadia, toward which NIL
lions Of dollars are given each year. As the athletic system is carried on
by joint bodies of alumni and students, the colleges are unable to control
them, SC that any effort to make the colleges a real institution will be e.
tarded.

Children Misled Into Thinking War Nearly All
Heroics and Glory
By 4 ISAAC ]. cox. Northwestern University.

The public school is the training ground for future citizenship Ihe
textbook on history, which should be merely an effective tool for the
school, frequently becomes a target for abuse in which suppression OF
perversion play IS great part as truthful expression. Back of the propa-5
gandist stand various groups, upon whom he may rely for undiscr'mlnat-
ing help whenever he chooses to give a so-caned patriotic twist to his
words. It would be just as wrong SO to word a history as to encourage
national paifsm as it would to fllit full Of thrills regarding our glorious
armies and their achievements. My stand is simple: Let the children have
the truth and that will suffice. Generally, however, our. histories have
expanded upon the victories upon the battlefield instead Of treating the
political, economic and social causes which brought on the war; children
also have not been able to read about the seamy and terrible side Of war,
but have been nided INTO thinking Of it as nearly all herois and glory.
