The society's decision has the full
concurrence of the Navy Department,
which loaned to Macmillan the planes
and personnel commanded by Comdr.
Byrd. The department has asked
Byrd for information as to the con-
dition of his equipment, but 1t Is the
belief here that he is in a position to
cooperate fully in the explorations
which still remain on the program of
the expedition.
Full plans for the withdrawal from

The 10-seater is SO built that it is

The small machine is fitted with a
slotted control, which consists of

What I TomorrowMeans to You
BY MARY BLAKE.
Gemini.

Tomorrow's planetary aspects are
not very favorable during the fore
noon and counsel abstention from any
initiative work of an aggressive ma
ture, but they do present a good op-
portunity for deliberation, thought
and planning, as the conditions de-
note an atmosphere that will beget
clearness of perception and saneness
of Judgment. Immediately after mid
day other influences prevail. and the
signs indicate that what has been
thought out in the morning can now
be put into execution, as an urge TO
accomplish will be felt and a degree
of optimism will be engendered that
can only assist and never hinder the
successful achievement of the task in
hand.
The child born tomorrow makes its
appearance Under very suspicious
conditions. both as regards physical
and moral welfare. 1t promises to
enjoy more than normal health and
its ailments will not only be few, but
of an unimportant character. In
temperament and character, il will
be cheerful and bright, truthful,
loyal and persevering. 1t will not be
brilliant, but will have a plodding
nature and what it once learns will
never be forgotten. It's personality
will not be one quickly TO attract or
command attention. Only intimate
acquaintance will enable others to
appreciate at their true value its
many sterling traits. This child is
not destiped for leadership, but will
shine best when carrying out the or
derS, or executing the plans of
others.
With very few exceptions all those
whose birthday II is tomorrow are
cheerful companions and always take
hopeful view of life and its affairs.
They enjoy dispositions that appar-
emily rise superior 10 everyday wor-
ries and disappointments. They are
optimistic-at times. unduly so-and
Ii is impossible for them to associate
a thought of failure with any enter
prise i'm which they may be engaged.
If failure should occur, and il often
does, they never become castdown.
but Immediately start out on some
thing else, with undiminished enthus-
iasm and hope. 1t would, of course,
prove more successful in a materia !
sense, if their excessive optimism
were tinged with a more practical
outlook. On the other hand, this
might detract from the zest with
which they attack their self imposed
tasks and thereby prevent whole
souled effort, without which nothing
worth while can be accomplished.
They are loyal friends and constant
lovers, and their greatest enjoyment
is derived from home life. where, by
virtue of disposition and tempera-
ment, they are always at their best.
Well known persons born on this
date are: Brigham Young, second
president of Mormon Church; Will
liam J. Stiilman, journalist and
author; Redf1eld Proctor, lawyer:
Eben Tourjee, musician; William P.
Blake, geologist; Hugo Munsterberg,
psychologist.

Details for the. new aviation policy
for the Navy are being worked out
by Rear Admiral Louis NJ. Mutton,
superintendent of the Naval Academy,
and the Bureau of Navigation, Navy
Department. Admiral Mutton reports
that had aviation volunteers been
asked for from the class of 1926, the
entire roster of the class would have
responded to undergo the first course
which is scheduled to begin at the
close of the academic year. The first
course is three months in duration,
most of which time will be devoted
to ground school work by the $50
midshipmen who have been designat.
ed to take this first course in aviation
training. Those midshipmen who will
go on the 1925 practice cruise will
after they have been commissioned as
ensgnS, be retained at Annapolis for
this three-month ground instruction.
All classes in the future, after they
have been commissioned as ensigns,
will be given their three-month avi-
alton instruction. A revision will be
made in this course next year, which
will increase the amount of instruc-
ton in aviation subjects.
Upon the completion of the three
month ground school Instruction at
the academy, the ensigns will be Or

many, and the question between re
public and empire has been hopeleSsly
complicated by that between capital
and labor, and because labor, the So
cialist party, is the chief adherent OF
the republic, capital, through the
Peoples party, is quite naturally led
to an alliance with the monarchial
group. This might be without menace
to the world and without present peril
to the republic if big business were
strong enough to restrain the i'm
perialists, but in the Hindenburg
case it failed and the failure may
prove an unlimited catastrophe.
In any event, the two puzzles in the
German situation now are, first,
whether the Peoples party-that is,
big businessman hereafter impose its
policy of intelligent moderation upon
the Nationalist, and secondly, what
it will do If it fails. On the answer TO
these questions depends, not merely
the fate of the German republic for
some years. but also the tranquility.
If not the peace, of Europe for an
equally long period.

One Force Always Acting.
But scientists concerned are still
unable definitely to determine which
forces are responsible for earthquakes.
One force is always acting, however,
according to Col. Jones, and that is
the transfer of material from place
to- place on land and from land to
sea by the process of erosion and
position. While generally slow and
acting at variable rates, the total
amounts involved are very great and
the changes in loading of the earth's
crust are quite appreciable."
Col. Jones is not quite certain that
definite prediction as to when an
earthquake will take place would be
advisable, even if possible. But
warning to the inhabitants of
region that an earthquake was likely
some time would give them ample
time, as a rule, or should do so, he
believes, to provide for the proper
construction of buildings and to take
other special precautions.
Prediction in time, though useful.
is perhaps not even desirable in many
cases." says Col. Jones, however 1T
is likely that such prediction would
disorga nize life to an unreas, liable
extent and cause unnecessary panic
when the predicted earthquake ar
rives. There is one case in which
prediction in time would perform the
same valuable service that flood pre-
diction now renders. This is the case
of submarine earthquakes, which are
likely to send tidal waves to the
shore. Vessels knowing that such
earthquakes We're coming could go to
sea and be perfectly Jafe, and people
and movable propert, could be moved
back from the sea in time
AS a result of his investigation, Col.
Jones hopes to be able to tell whether
earthquakes are likely in your neigh
borhood, and. If they are, to give you
plenty of time to strengthen and
anchor the foundation of the house.

lowing for eXaggeration, it appears
that in certain cities panics due to fear
Of the earthquake were narrowly
averted. The need for more and wide
spread knowledge in regard to earth
quakes and the probability of their
causing damage in regions of rare &C.
currence is clearly indicated"
The earthquake of February %,
this year, occurred within 200 miles of
the scene of a ma or earthquake along
the st. Lawrence Valley, not far north
of the Canadian border, in 1868. The
latter shock formed new lakes, caused
the disappearance of forests and
mountains and destroyed water falls
on the st. Maurice River, which flows
in the ST. Lawrence near Three Riv-
ers, Quebec, which might today have
been comparable with Niagara.
Source of Interest.
Both the 1868 and 1928 shocks
"shook the northeastern part of the
United States sufficiently to make
their occurrence of lively interest to
the people of that section" says Col.
Jones. such occurrences naturally
arouse conjecture as to whether the
activity is likely to remain confined to
that region or eXten, % other places
nearer to the great les of the At
lantic seaboard.
Various parts of New England
have been disturb 1 from time to
time by moderate .rthquakeS, some
of which have been of sufficient inten-
sity to damage the chimneys of
houses. Earthquakes have occurred
shire and Vermont probably in some
way related to the ST. Lawrence Val
fey earthquakeS); Massachusetts, espe-
cially at Newburyport, and Connect
cut, especially at East Haddam, where
subterranean noises have been heard
at times. and whose quake Of 1884
was felt in New York City"
1t was formerly thought that
earthquakes were due to collapse of
great cavities in the interior of the
earth. Later volcanic activity was
blamed. but, according to Col. Jones
most of the earthquakes, and some OF
the worst, have occurred in regions
free of volcanoes.
Due to Earth Slipping.
ut is now accepted that the earth
quake is a general phenomenon and
the volcano is local." he says 1T
is also generally accepted that the
vast majority of earthquakes are
due to slipping along faults in the
earths crust and are generally as
sociated with the adjustment of long
existing strains. For some reason
forces exist within the earth's crust
which put a great Strain on certain
parts of it. At times the strain be-
comes so great there is actually a
break along a surface, known as a
fault.
The two parts may then slip
along this surface, either horizontally
or vertically, or both. Sometimes
the stress accumulates without any
motion at all until the breaking point
is reached, then the slip comes sud-
denly and an earthquake occurs,
whose intensity varies with the
amount of the slip, the area affected
and probably the depth of the slip
In such cases the slipping usually
relieves the stress and there are no
further dangerous quakes until the
stresses have again approached the
breaking point. Another type of ma
Tor earthquake occurs under the sea,
