STATE DEPARTMENT
 MAY BE REVAMPED
Foreign Service Officers Said to
 Be Promoting Themselves

Washington. Nov. (UP)-Secrc- tary Of State Stimson has begun dis CuSSlon of departmental reorganiza- tion with Chairman Porter of the told the United Press today be be- lieved legislation authorizing the move might be enacted this winter.
 Porter's conferences have inClud- ed Under Secretary Cotton and As sistant Secretary Carr. The pro- posed reorganization is the most far reaching ever undertaken and is partly intended, Porter said. to prevent foreign service officers from promoting themselves. as a group is alleged to have done since the war.
 President Hoovers program Of administrative economy would be disregarded in the reorganization process which would tremendously increase operating costs of the state department. Tnde,' present conditions the department is the most economical in the govern ment.
 The Porter bill would increase the number of under secretaries to two and the number of assistant secretaries from four to six. The former would receive $13,500 and the latter $12,o00 annually. The most far reaching changt, however. would lie in creation of a home service.
 Under present conditions foreign service officers are called in from abroad for maximum periods Of four years service here. In addi- tion, the department is staffed by a large group Of responsible en- ployes who are designated drafting officers.
 Under the pending bill control of promotions within their own ranks would be removed from foreign

Lost Continent of Mu
 Traced by Old Stones

Papeete, Tahiti, Nov, s CP) - Legends of the lost continent . of Mu, which oriental tradition says disappeared in fire and flood leav- ing the islands of the South Pa ciic, have been revived hy finding evidences of a race that peopled these islands before the ancient coming of the Polynesians.
 Recent explorations by anthro- pologists upon mountainous pIa- teaus have shown stone structures of a quite different character than those erected by Polynesians. Re moto burial caves have given up skulls not polynesian.
 Tho fable is that Mu once com- prised land filling a vast region of the southern Pacific. It sank, leav- ing only the tops of volcanic noun tains above water.

Cincinnati. Nov. S. CP@Incidents which inspire youth to scientific success often arc revealed only years afterward.
 Such an incident now comes to light in the career of ProT. H. ship ley Fry, head Of the department Of chemistry, University of Cincinnati.
 Tn student days he was filled with admiration akin t~ awe by the abil- ity of his old chemistry professor to eXpound the intricate formulae oS benzene, a cyclic structure of six carbon atoms each united to d hydrogen atom.
 He has owned up that perhaps the tinkle of delicate test tubes and the singing of boiling liquid helped stir his imagination. At any rate. he formed the ambition of develop ing q new benzene formula.
 Years ago he conceived the first electronic formula which afforded theoretical explanation Of benzene'a chemical constitution and proper ties. It was so radical that Ameri-

FRENCH DENY
RIGHT TO Die
Thinkers In Discussion o.
Age Old Topic Dis
agroF

PARIS, July 2.-{P)-The right to
die, often claimed by the sick and
the unhappy, is up for discussion
again. 1t became a topic of the day
when Richard Corbett, a young Eng
lishman charged with murder, wrote
an open letter seeking to justify
himself in killing his mother to end
her long agony.
Doctors, lawyers and philosophers
in France all deny mans authority
to kill except as legal punishment
and presumably in war and self
defense.
Ancestral respect for human
life" is offered by Professor Henri
Roger, dean of the faculty Of med
icine, as a solid moral barrier
against abuses that should be kept
%inviolate.
1t is the physicians mission to
prolong life, says Professor Charles
Richet. member Of the Academy of
Medicine and noted for his psychic
research. Quite aside from the
moral aspect, Or. Richet opposes
two arguments to the theory that
the state be allowed to kill those
who wish to die to end their suf-
fering. He asserts there never can
be absolute certainty that the pa
t1ent wants to die, or won't change
his mind, and there always is the
possibility of an erroneous dag
: nosls. Science, he says. every day
discovers new methods of relief.
For the philosophers, the Able
Peillaube, dean Of the faculty Of
philosophy of the Catholis institute.
stands rightly on the thesis that
the right to destroy human life
does not belocg to us"
Even from the standpoint of law,
Edouard LIE Roy, professor at the
College Of France. finds there are
toe great difficulties.
ANY effort to legislate on such
a matter" he says would lead the
public to ask more. From an in
dividualistic point of view, why linn

bles?" And. in any, case, to en-
trust the state with authority to de-
eide the right of suicide would be
to give it, after all. to men who
are subject to the same influences
and errors of Judgment as all other
men"
The whole matter is thrown back
into the realm of morals by Pro-
fesor Berthelemy. dean Of the law
faculty of the University Of Paris.
law" he explains, lis simply
that part Of the moral code for
which respect may be exacted by
force" Therefore, the matter of
killing for mercy should be ex-
amined first Of all on moral
grounds, and If it doesn't fit in it
should not be considered as q Dos
sible law. And he rejects it on
moral grounds.
All these authorities admit there
are border-line cases where death
might be a mercy, but all hold fast
to the supreme law, "Thou shalt not
kill"
