Sul7er Bursts Bubble.
In the language of Senator Bar6ley
the committee burst another bubble

PARK MUSEUMS
TO TEACH SCIENCE
Lectures by Prominent Men
Feature of Education Plan
Under National Auspices.

The creation of museums containing
scientific and historic exhibits and the
preparation of program of scientific
lectures to be given by prominent
American scientists within the national
parks Of the United States are included
in the plan for a great scientific uni
versity in these parks throughout the
country now being arranged for this
Summer.
The proposed Shenandoah National
Park in Virginia, which will be the
nearest national park to Washington,
will be included in the plan to have a
museum in each park with qualified
scientific men to explain its natural
wonders and permit the general public
to obtain scientific education while
having a recreational outing.
Great Educational Agent.
DR.. John C. Merriman, president of
the Carnegie Institution of Washing
ton, has characterized the program as
furnishing one of the greatest edu-
cational and scientific possibilities of
America or of the world" The National
Park Service said today that it plans
to have the new museum at YaVapai
Point In the Grand Canyon ready in
about three weeks.
. This museum will be a stone structure
built on the edge of the Grand Canyon
with the front open. Telescopes will
be trained on particularly interesting
points in this major wonderland of
America. so that the general public
can look on the south and part of the
north side of the canyon at the foot
prints of prehistoric animals and other
marvels. and hear scientific lectures re-
lating to the origin and history of the
Grand Canyon delivered by experts.
DR.. Merriam plans on going to the
Grand Canyon this Summer to assist
in delivering some of the lectures, and
DR.. David White of Washington. senior
geologist of the Geological Survey, is at
present making studies of the fossils
in the formation in the lower part of
the Grand Canyon and will deliver some
Of the lectures.
Academy OF Sciences Co-Operates.
The committee Of the National Acad-
emy of Sciences is cooperating with a
committee of the American Museum AS
sociation in the construction and equip
ment of the scientific observatory sta
tion at Yavapai Point. Trails will be
built leading down to special points OF
interest In the canyon. so that the pub
lie. having espied them through tele-
scopes on the canyons brim. can then
take some of these trails to view the OBJ
jects OF wonder themselves.
This work OF DR.. White in studying
the fossils is being carried on under the
auspices of the Carnegie Institution of
Washington in cooperation with the
Grand Canyon committee of the Nation
al Academy Of Sciences.
The plan to have scientific lectures in
the national parks as part of great
outdoor educational movement Is the
outgrowth OF the response of the public

CIares Use Legal in Grim
inal Proceedings.

The Supreme Court, in a 5-to-4 de-
cision yesterday afternoon. held that
evidence obtained By tapping telephone
wires and listening to conversations
can legally be used in criminal pro-
ceedings. The decision was the out
growth Of three cases from the State
Of Washington involving the conviction
Of Roy Olrlsted and a number Of
Others in one Of the most gigantic pro-
hibition violations ever unearthed.
The conclusion OF the majority. how
ever, we're denounced By the minority,
consisting c1 Justices Holmes. Brandeig,
Butler and Stone. They declared that
telephone messages should be clothed
with li3e same sanctity against Govern

attached 70 letters.
Chief Justice Taft. speaking for the
majority, maintained that the contro-
yersy stood On the single question Of
whether overlapping violated the
fourth amendment 70 the Constitu-
iton. The Chief Justice declared that
sFiIe-tappkng Gid not constitute search

attendants. The amendment cannot be
expanded. he added, 70 include "tele-

world from the defendants house or
Office. The intervening wires are not a.

than the highways along which they
are stretched"
