EARTHS MOBILE CRUST.

Professor Gregory and Professor
Watts also agreed as to the existenct
of evidence pointing to a considerable
mobility of the earth's crust. But they
both insisted that the older view Of
the mobility expressing itself as 0
vertical rise and fall of the oceans
floors was conception which ac'
counted at least equally well for many
of the facts, and that changes of eli
mate in the past provided an easier
solution of much that Wegener at.
tributed to continental drift.
Professor Gregory also pointed out
that Wegener's theory required wiz
ening of the Atlantic and a narrowing
of a formerly wider Pacific. BY evil
dence drawn from many divisions of
the animal and vegetable kingdom, he
showed that it was quite as necessary
to assume connection across the Pa
cific to account for the similarities be.
tween Asia and Western America as
in the case of the Atlantic. On his
showing there was as much reason
to post an imaginary Pacific as the
legendary Atlantis. What the evidence
really seemed to show was a success
sion of connections across the Pacific
and Atlantic due to changes in the
shape of the earth with their conse
quent elevations and depressions. 1t
was to be remembered that an eleva-
ton of less than four miles would
bring all the Pacific floor above SEQ
level.

CONTINENTS SEPARATE.

On Wagener's hypothesis Austria

Southern India and South America had
been united in a great southern land
mass from the earliest geological times
up to about the close of the Jurassic
age. Then. owing to tidal drift of the
floating continents, separation took
place, the South Atlantic gradually

from South Africa and India, so to
speak. being left behind. There was

The older theory that the ocean beds

much greater mobility of the crust Of
the earth, the continents being able to
slide over the more plastic although
denser material. in which they were

annual address of the president, DR.
E. S. Gilmore of Chicago, at the open

More pleasant and cheaper accom-
modations for patients recovering
from illness should be thus provided
DR.. Gilmore said. Grading of nurse
education, is being developed by the
Association as one of its most i'm.
portant efforts, he said, because the
hospitals of America have more young
women students than all the universe
ties and colleges.
"A number Of South American coun-
tries have written to learn the details
of our management" DR.. Gilmore said.
1--WE owe it to the worlds advance
ment that we extend the benefits OF
our experience to Central and South
America and / should like to see those
countries join US and Canada in max
ing ours truly the American, Hospi-
tai Association. There is much that
we can learn from our neighbors in
the south.
Perhaps the most beautiful hos
pital in the world, certainly the most

in South America. We need the re-
ciprocal advantages we could gain
from meeting with their accredited
delegates.

SEEK COPPER
BELT IN STATE
University Biologists In
Search for a Copper
Belt In State. p
FINDINGS FAVORABLE

Madison, Wis Two parties
of nine geology students of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin combed IL town
ships in Douglas county during the
past summer to determine the loca-
ton of possible copper belt in Wis
lsconsin. Preliminary maps of certain
promising regions have been made, H.
R. Aldrich, Of the state geological sur
vey, who supervised the work, an
nounced today.
The parties were aided by magnetic
needles which indicated the presence
of copper-bearing formations beneath
the glacial drift in northern Wisconsin.
Mr.. Aldrich said that in many places
the copper survey indicated that con-
ditions were favorable to deposition of
copper in considerable quantities. He
is of the opinion that, although the
market for copper is fully supplied az
| the present time, there will be a day
when new deposits must be sought.
For this reason the survey made the
preliminary mapping of promising
regions. Here magnetic readings have
been taken at every 80 PAGES on trav-
erse lines one-half mile apart, the
country mapped geographically, the
soil composition and timber growth
noted, and the glacial drift examined
for possible gravels of value for ex-
ample, in highway construction.
Several promising locations were
carefully surveyed and analysed this
summer.
| Because of the ideal weather con-
| ditions and the superior quality of the
| graduate geology students in the party
the area covered was unusually great
Mr. Aldrich commented.
According to Mr.. Aldrich, the dip
needle is the only known means OF
/ determining the character of under
! ground rock in country covered with a
mantel rock known as glacial drift
1 1t is device which was used origi-
nally by the Scandinavian people in
their search for iron deposits.
/ By using the needle to detect the
mineral and then by noting the loca
ton and structure of such iron-bear.
ing formations, the geoHogist is able
to indicate to the driNerI or explora
tion company the location of the mos,
! promising formations.
Having been successful in detect
ing the presence and structure of iron.
bearing formations by the magnetic
method, the survey, ein 1922, conceived
that these same methods might be
useful in, another field.
Knowing that copper belts contain.
ing the native mineral supposedly
make passage, from Keweenah Point
| in Michigan across Wisconsin in
j parts of Iron, Ashland, Bayfield, Dou-
/ glas ands Washburn counties, the geo
logical survey has, for the past four
years, sent parties to this locality.
