ACCURACY As WELL
| AS ARD0R NEEDED
Rev. ". 4. Addison Contrasts
Two At Church Meeting

Rev. w. H. Anderson Of Trinity
NJ. E. church last night preached on
the subject, "Ardor and Accuracy
Friends later told him it was the
most illuminative sermon he had
ever given.
Some people have ardor and nc
accuracy: others have accuracy AMI
no ardor. the clergyman said. The
most oratorical masterpiece he ever
heard was by a man who had all
ardor and no accuracy: and all he
said was like a ship on the rocks
because 1t wasn't predicated upon
accurate facts.
The other extreme: professor
Einstein. The pastor had tried to
read the latest mathematical deduc-
ton Of the German scientist but
could make no head or tail Of lit
looked like the quintessence Of &C.
curacy but lacked the ardor to make
the others understand.
People disagreed about inconse-
quentials over religion. and because
they possessed more ardor than &C.
curacy there now are lS3 sects.
Ten years ago there was ardor.
but no accuracy about the facts un-
derlying the war. III we then had
known the fact we now know there
probably would have been less ar
DOR" the pastor stated.
Thus the pastor linked his subject
with virtually every modern issue.
The gtst was that before warming
up ones ardor about thing an ac-
curate appraisal Of the underlying
facts is essential, and when accurate
facts are at hand, ardor Is needed
and justified.

NAVY SEEKS FUNDS
FOR z BATTLESH|PS.
Vessels Would Be First Of
Requirements Provided Un-
der 1921 Arms Pact.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
In Its preliminary estimates for ap-
propriations for the 1881 fiscal year,
the Navy Department has included a
recommendation for the authorization
Of funds to build two battleships, which
will be the first Of the capital ship
requirements provided under the 1921
Washington naval arms treaty.
Announcement ct this recommended
ton was made yesterday by Admiral
Charles F. Hughes, chief of naval op-
erations. Secretary Adams has issued
. call to Navy Department officials to
prepare their estimates next week.
The two proposed battleships would
replace the Florida, Utah and Wyoming.
Under the terms of the 1921 treaty
these replacement capital ships must be
laid down in 1891 and would be COM
pleted by 1884. The treaty provides for
the replacement Of IS battleships by
1912.
There was some discussion in naval
CHClcS yesterday rs 10 WneJQeT any
actual building plans for these craft
would be formulated until after the
second limitation conference scheduled
for 1891. One question now puzzling
the Navy officials is whether. in event
Of the 1891 conference failing to
change the status of capital ships, the
American Navy will continue its policy
Of 35,000-ton ships with l6-inch guns.
1t Is considered the Navy General
Board at present is unchanged in its
view That's the battleship is the back
bone of the feet. But some naval OBJ
servers assert there may be a departure
to some degree from this policy.
The Navy also has taken official cog
nizance OF the new German cruiser, the
Ersatz Preussen, the department hav-
ing declared this cruiser represents an
entirely new departure from current
naval design" The naval officials be-
lieve this German cruiser, with her
cruising radius Of 10000 miles and
speed of 20 knots, together with her
armament of ll-inch guns, may cause
a revision of the naval limitation rules
covering cruisers.

TAMMANY ELECTS

Hands 0ff-WaIker to Be
Sounded Tomorrow.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 20.-After three
members Of the so-called Big Four Of
Tammany Hail. washed their hands OF
the problem, the executive committee
Of the New York County Democratic
organization announced today 1t would
elect successor Tuesday to the re-
signed chieftain, Judge George w. Oh
yany.
Former Gov. Alfred E. Smith. pro-
ponent of the new Tammany," told
a subcommittee of seven yesterday that
since. the district leaders were deter
mined the new chieftain should come
from their ranks, he believed the exec
utive committee was capable of han
ding the choice. Today Surrogate
James A. Foley and Senator Robert F.
Wagner also refused to help. That
leaves Mayor James j. Walker, whose
prestige has mounted tremendously
among the Tammany Braves since the
Supreme Court ruled for the city in the
nickel fare Tight, as the last of the Big
Four who has not vet been Consulted
He Will meet the subcommittee Monday.
The refusal of the former governor
to assist under the terms that a dis
trict leader be appointed was regarded
by political observers as the long-ex-
pected break between Smith and the
political organization that brought him
up. Some believed Smiths choice for
the leadership was Senator Wagner.
The committees decision to elect it's
own leader was announced by Peter j
Dooling, chairman Of the executive
committee. after the COMMITTEES Of
seven had interviewed Senator Wagner
and Surrogate Foley.

Scientist Identifies Substance
That Controls Growth by
Cell Division.
BY HOWARD w. BLAKEsLEE,
Associated Press Science Editor.

PHILADELPHIA, April 20.-A new
field for possible control Of cancer was
opened in a report to the American
Philosophical Society today by F. S.
Hammett, professor of research, the
Research Institute of Lankenau Hos
pital, Philadelphia.
The report Identifies the chemical
substance that apparently controls the
growth by process of cell division, .
characteristic method of development Of
malignant growths.
DR.. Hammett said emphatically that
there was at present no application of
what he has found to the cure Of
disease, but that ultimately we may
be able to regulate diseased growths
through control Of the cell division"
Possibilities Are Enormous.
The possibilities extend far beyond
the field of disease, for cell division is
one method Of growth Of all living
things. Should way be found to con-
troll cell growth at will, DR.. Hammett
explained after the session, it should
be useful in producing larger kernels
OF grain and larger supplies of other
agricultural foodsUuffs.
The chemical that he found in ap-
parent control of cell division is
sulfhydryl, substance that living cells
ABSORB anu use in natural processes Of
growth.
DR.. A. B. MacCallum, professor4meri
tus OF biochemistry OF McGiM Univer-
sity, rose in the formal session and con-
graduated DR.: Hammstt upon opening
a new field" for rssearch.
Fund fQr~New Home in Sight.
DR.. MacCallum coined a new word
"spelM6culist" He congratulated DR..
Hafhmett for not being a spelunculist
The word, he said, comes from one
meaning little caves" and designates
q certain kind of specialist who knows
more and more about less and less"
DR.. Hammett, when asked about the
time needed to find out whether there
Is some possible, safe way Of utilizing
sulfhydryl control, said he could not
estimate, but that it would require q
very great amount Of painstaking re-
search.
Announcement was made tonight at
the annual dinner Of the society that
the $2,250,0 900 fund for It's new home on
the Parkway here was in sight.
The future home Of the Oldest learned
society in America Is to be cultural
center for the study and guidance OF
mankind advancing"
Eldredge r.. johnson, treasurer OF the
endowment fund, said that more than
third Of the sum required was pledged
during the society's three-day meeting
which ended today.
