Hope for White Race.
DR.. .Alcs Hrdlicka. curator of
physical anthropology at the National
Museum in Washington, believes the
white race should continue to hold its
own with all other races.
IF some cataclysm or general cpl
demic should befall it." he said today,
1T would go the way of all races so
afflicted and sink to n secondary po-
sition. But, unless this should occur,
the white race. despite the howls of
those who predict that the rising
tide of color will sweep all before it,
will stand well to the fore"
The great advance of evolution In
the future, Dr. IIrdlicka said, will be
in mentality.

is probable. will be as superior to us
today as we are to the Neanderthnl
