CHEMISTS AID MEDICINE
Year Saw Cure for ParesiS, and
Many Synthetic Methods.

IN AEA SeTr1CG
NEW YORK, Jan. 2.-Chemistry
and medicine went almost hand in
hand toward greater discoveries in
1927. More synthetic methods have
beer introduced into industry,
thanks to chemical research, making
it possible to manufacture rubber,
leather. perfumes, fiavoring, even
petroleum from coal. q
In medicine, one of the greatest
Announcements has been the infection
of persons subject to hitherto incur
able general paresis with malaria
germs, in order to check the worse
disease. After infection, the ma
1aria would be cured by a new drug
called "plaSmochin," a quinine prep
aration more effective than the old
quinine prescription.

Mrs. Peterkin Westcott wrote a
fine story and so did Miss Roberts,
though we cling to her first work,
THE Time of Man." as being one Of
the contemporary classics.
The general selection seems to
favor one or the other of these two
books. But, with no intent to start
any arguments, our own taste leans
toward Mrs. Peterkin's BLACK
April"
This southern woman started
with those fine darkey stories,
Green Thursdays Her BLACK
April is a particularly excellent
novel of Negro life. She can write,
and one Of these days every one

Hemingway, perhaps, should not
be listed with newcomers. He had
already been known for his short
stories before men without Wom-
EN-" appeared, just as Louis Brom-
field, author of 1.-THE Good Wom-
an" had been shouted over before.
The name of Thornton Wilder is
perhaps the least known in the COL
lection of newcomers. Wilder
created attention through abilities
revealed in "Cabala." This year he
made real contribution to con-
temporary literature with 1.-THE
Bridge of San Luis Rey."
We hear that in London the ever
zestful Arnold Bennett tossed his
hat in the air and said something
about this book being the finest in
a generation, or something like that
We don't care to go quite that far
Wilder is a splendid artist OF whom
a great deal will be heard.

danger pots with anxious eye; the
western frontiers of Russia, Poland
and Germany, Italy and Jugo-
Slavia, the Balkans generally, not
to mention China, India and Egypt.
Troubles are Brewing
Among other portents are: the
failure Of the Anglo American
Japanese naval conference at Cen
eva; the revolt of the smaller
nations at the last League assembly
against what they characterized a
return to pre-War method OF
diplomacy, the balance of power"
ETC.; the definite rejection by Great
Britain of the socalled Geneva
Protocol" which would have ap-
piled the principles of the Locarno
Pact to Europe's eastern frontiers;
the breaking off Of diplomatic re-
IationS between Great Britain and
Russia; Italy's resentment toward
the recent Franco-Serbian alliance;
and the undoubted growth in other
quarters of international jealousies
and suspicious as we'll as national
iSticS aspirations.
Two of the most important pol
itical events of the year occurred
in Russia and Italy, where the two
great modern developments in gov
eminent are still in the experiment
tai stage, although the one has been
going or for a decade and the other
for five years.
Internal turmoilS in Russia, grow
ing out of the new economic policy,
resulted in the expulsion from the
Communist party of Trotzky, Zinc
vieff and other Bull Moses" who
at one time were in high power.
Friendly to America
At the moment Stain and his
immediate associates seem to be as
firmly in control of the Soviet gov
eminent as Mussolini is in Italy.
Europe generally has been more
genial toward America and Ameri-
cans in the past year than previ-
ously-barring an occasional Spasm
of petulance.
There has been a marked diminu-
ton of resentment on the debt ques-
ton, not only in England, but also
in France, in recent months, as
Americas viewpoint has come to be
better understood.
Lindbergh Helped
The Sacco- Vanzetti demonstra-
tons. which were rather wide spread
throughout Europe, were largely pro-
Communist, rather than anti-Amer-
lean, in character.
Undoubtedly, the spectacular
aerial visit of Ambassador" Lind
bergh to France and the subsequent
meeting of the America Legionnaire,
in Paris and their journeys in vari
Gus European countries contributed
materially toward producing thu
more friendly attitude toward thu
United States.
