A possible reason for the argument

COUNCILS MAY
Be FORMED TO
AID PROSPERITY
Three Permanent Groups,
With Julius Barnes at
Head, Suggested.

BIZ scrfpps-Houord Sepsp1per Alliance
WASHINGTON, Nov. 28.-A far
reaching movement for regulation Of
productive enterprise and stimula-
ion of prosperity was said today to
lie contemplated by President Hoo
yer and his advisers as the chief
result of the present mobilization of
industry, agriculture, and labor in
the Business AS Usual" program.
With Julius Barnes as director, 1t
is understood the administration
hopes for creation Of three perma-
nent economic councils which will
apply scientific principles to the
control of production so far as pos
sible.
These three central bodies, repre-
senting industry, agriculture, and
labor, would be expected to CO.
operate with a governmental COM
mission composed of the secretaries
of commerce, treasury, labor and
agriculture.
President Hoover would, however,
be the central cog in the prosperity
machine, at least for the present.
Must Be willing
No thought of hard-and-fast con-
troll or supervision of activities is
entertained, for the essence of tie
movement is the willing and volun-
tary cooperation of the several
forces. 1t is expected, however. that
the three councils, acting together
or separately or through the gov
ernmental body, would be able to
do for productive enterprise what
the Federal Reserve board has &C
complished in the field of finance
and banking.
BY exchange of information such
as took place when railroad chiefs
industrial leaders, and farm rep
resentatives met with the President
during the last ten days it Is be-
lieved that repressions could be
anticipated and avoided, just as the
administration hopes to avoid a
business slump through the present
organization of industrial forces.
Such an idea often has been pro-
posed by Hoover himself, by Barnes
and by economic experts who made
the study of economic changes and
cycles under Hoover's direction
when he was secretary of commerce.
Would Be Permanent
The stock market collapse and
fear Of a depression provided oppor-
tunity for putting the plan into
effect.
The only difference between this
plan and steps now being taken by
Hoover is that the former would be
a permanent organization. 1t would
be ready to encourage business and
industry and to urge expansion in
stead of retrenchment whenever
conditions neceSsitated such action.
Barnes now is virtually acting
secretary of prosperity" without
portfolio. He has issued invitations
to 200 representatives of business
Ind indutry for a Dec. meeting
sere, at which a general inventory
conditions will be given.

the very roots of life, the factors which govern changes in heredity, which help to make one insect large and another small, one man a genius and the other a dub.
 The source of the earthly radia- ton is radio active deposits. The existence of this activity and its probably universal spread over the earth's crust, has been established by geology and physics in the last quarter of century.
 But this radio activity was con sdered too slight to have measura- ble effects upon living things until scientists began suggesting differ ently about two years ago.
 These suggestions have been put to test by Prof. E. B. Babcock and Prof. J. l.. Collins of the division of genetics, University of Califor- mia Agricultural college. They raised flies in two groups, one III a tunnel 40 feet underground and the other in their laboratories, IS miles from the tunnel. The tunnel

had twice as much radiation from the earth as had the laboratory.
 In 5S9l tests they watched the difference in the rates of change in the chromosomes of the two groups. ChrOmosome are microscopic chains in living cells that determine hereditary characteristics. When chromosomes change, individuals change; sometimes even a new species develops.
 In the tunnel they observed the effects of about twice as many changes in the chromosomes, at trbuted to the"greater power of the rays present there. Scientists call these changes mutations" and "point mutations"
 No matter" says Dr. Babcock, "whether the natural radiation or the earth actually causes mutation or whether it only affects it's rate of occurrence, there can he little doubt that it has played and Is playing an important role in the great drama of evolution.
