Finest Athletes Come
From Cold Countries

The most athletic countries are
those with the lowest average temper
allure; according to computations made
by DR.. Guillermo Hoxmark of the
Argentine weather bureau on the
basis of performances at the last two
Olympic games in Antwerp and Paris
Twenty-six countries were repre-
scented and the number of inhabitants
of eaeh- were divided by the number
of points gained thus giving the num-
Der of thousands of inhabitants per
point The countries were then ranged
in the resulting order.
When brought into relation with the
average annual temperature it ap-
peared that high average athletic
ability and low average tempera-
ture go together.
The figures of the two cOmpeti-
tons taken separately and together,
give approximately the same result.
In each case Norway, Finland and
Sweden head the list in the order
named, Great Britain stands twelfth !;
Spain, Czechoslovakia, Japan and
Egypt are among those at the bottom
of the list.

Favorable Criticism,

At recent meeting of librarians a
speaker said that he was surprised to
find that, in class of 80 boys, 90
had never heard of HI. G. Wells, Booth
Harrington and-would you believe it?
George Bernard Shaw. Yet they
knew great deal about Caesar, and
something about Cleopatra. He once

Gyroscope on Railroads

During the year 1926 the gyroscope
was first used in the railroad field.

:JARD|NE ATTACKED
FOR USE OF FUNDS
Byrns ASsaiIs Taking Cattle
Money for Loans to
Florida Farmers.

Secretary Jardine was criticized in
the House yesterday by Representa-
tive Byrns, Democrat. Tennessee. for
using $4,000 of certain cattle funds
20 make seed loans to Florida farmers
after the hurricane.
He said there was no authority for
the Secretary's action. and urged the
House to protest, so that the execu-
tive departments, high and low, will
know we will not countenanCc such a
procedure
Byrns said Jardine made the loans
in face of a statement by the Governor
of Florida that Florida could take
care Of herself. and does not need the
aid even of the Red Cross
Attacked During Debate.
If the money had been used to save
lives. he added, he would have no com,
paint, but the arbitrary use of funds
appropriated for other purposes should
not go unchallenged.
The criticism was made during a
debate on deficiency conference re-
port in which the cattle fund would
be repleniShed.
Representative Wood. Republican,
Indiana, defended the Secretary, say
ing he acted in an urgent emergency.
i ilS 0SlIlOCTdJlc Iehuof, Representa-
tive Garrett of Tennessee, also at
tackled the Secretary, and urged the
House not ito ratify an illegal act"
Sees Dangerous Precedent.
Congress, he said, often stretched a
point when human life was in the bal
ance. but that to ratify the Florida
loans would be to "set dangerous
and Illegal precedent"
Representative Drane, Democrat,
Florida. taking the floor in defense of
Nh. Jardine, declared "the President
and the Secretary of Agriculture
should be congratulated for having a
warm enough heart" to acquiesce in
the urgent demands of a stricken COM
munity.
Representatives Green and Sears.
other Florida Democrats, joined Drane
in lauding President Coolidge and Sec
rotary Jardine.
After the debate the House voted to
appropriate to replenish the cattle
