SPEAKER HITS FALSE
ECONOMIC STANDARD
Sociological Professor Says Under
Present Day Civilization Mar
riage Becomes Liability.
Bx the Associated Press.


NASHVILLE, Tenn, January s.
The false economic condition of our
present civilization is undermining
the sociological structure of the world,
In the opinion of DIR. Gus Dyer, head
of the department Of sociology at
Vanderbilt University.
In an address last night he said
that philosophers of today are agreed
that it is only a matter of time until
present-day civilization goes the way
of its predecessors.
"A home is becoming practically
impossible, children almost out Of the
question and real Christian mother
hood almost a thing OF the past" he
said.
Marriage to most young men is no
longer an asset but an insurmount-
able liability. Apartment life, grow.
ing out of the heather desire for ease,
has made the husband the sole sup.
port of the family and the wife and
children are not producers.
1T is because the average young
man cannot support a family that he
cannot marry. Most of those who do
marry can have no children. Prac-
tically all divorce grows out of
economic difficulty. Today there is
one divorce TO every four marriages.
"Monogamic marriage has been the
sex control of the world for ages, and
when this control is lost our civiliza.
ton must change"

ORIGIN OF THE CONSTITUTION

Considerable literature has appear
ed upon the origin and source of the
Constitution of the United States, but
despite this, there still are people
who believe that the fundamental
document under which we are govern
ed was of foreign origin, perhaps
modelled after the English form of
government. Mr.. G. E. Stevens up
holds this contention in a book en-
titled "The Sources of the Constitu-
ton" Here, he develops the similarity
between the English and American
constitutions and concludes that the
American Constitution is or was a
modified version or edition of the
English Constitution.
In Madison, "The Journal of the
Constitutional Convention" it is re-
vealed that the trainers of our Con-
stitution were seeking to evade the
British constitution as such because
England's government was a consol-
idated government whereas they were
seeking to create a federal govern
ment-"an indestructible Union of in
destructible states" The best test to
offer to person who upholds this
theory is to ask him to read the Con-
stitution sentence by sentence from
the beginning to end and ask how
many of these sentences come from
England.
James Wilson of Pennsylvania said
in 1877 that he revered the British
form of government but it could not
be adopted in our country. Likewise,
Plnckney of South Carolina, held
that the best constitution in the
world was the English constitution
but he was confident that it could
not be placed in operation in this
country for several centuries. Alex
ander Hamilton in a five hour speech
to the Constitutional Convention had
upheld the British form Of govern
nent but when he finished, DR.. John
son of Connecticut wrote in his diary:
Hamilton was praised by all but was
by none"
More preposterous than this Eng

CONFUSION CLEARED UP.
Principle of Vacuum Tube Opera
ton Explained.

Considerable confusion exists in the
minds OF many persons who, while
not technically inclined, nevertheless
are interested in knowing the basic
principle of vacuum tube operation.
They are told that when the filament
is heated electrons are shot out into
space, and that these in turn are at
tracted to the plate because of the
considerable voltage of positive cur
rent fed to that plate from the source
of "B" current. At the same time
they are told that the plate current
flows from the plate to the filament.
How does this double action occur?
Or is there some misundersta nding or
confusion among those who furnish
the explanation?
There is a double action between
filament and plate, and it is not so diff
cult to understand when one considers
the fact that the electrons, which are
shot off the illuminated filament and
VIII CHI travel to the plate. furnish a
path for the plate current. in turn. to
flow back to the fiiament. The cleo.
irons provide a path for the flow of
the current, but the current. instead
of flowing along with the electrons,
flows back over them.
