nmbus Ghe "scud of sailors), either may be specified
as fracto-nimbus"
To the layman this definition seems simple and
clear enough But it has given the professional me-
teOroOgist considerable trouble and much discussion
has taken place concerning the nimbuS cloud.
Let us turn to DR.. Humphreys of the United States
weather bureau to find out why. He writes: "Nimbus
originally meaning cloud. and inferentially, storm
now means snow or rain cloud.
Hence, many argue, if rain is falling from
cloud it certainly is a rain cloud. Likewise if rain
is not falling from it. then clearly it must be
other sort of cloud. But the other hand, if given
cloud while raining happens to be a typical rain cloud
tnimbuSl, what was it Immediately before We
the rain?
Again if it happens to be raining very hard what
rain?
suppose that We can not see the edge OF the cloud
that is raining and generally not. dare then
call it nimbus in the face of the official definition
with ragged edges?
These typical of the questions and bubbles the
arbitrary official definition of ninbus has evoked"
DR.. Humphreys suggests that the solution to the
problem can be found by broad Interpretation OF the
definition.
He points out that a trace of precipitation may be
falling from other forms of clouds and that it would
be senseless confusion to such clouds under
the circumstance
ON the other hand" he writes IF it looks like
rain cloud and not cunluo- nunbuS call it nimbus
whether it is raining not and regardless of all
edges.
The cumulo-nimbuS cloud will be described later0
The nimbus cloud is formed by rise of air due TO
converging Winds the flow mountain barriers or
the oyerrunnng OF currents Of different temperatures

Young communists jeered the
Il police during a parade on Sat
urday and we're arrested, and when
they brought these children into the
station house the lieutenant at the
desk is reported to have said, I'm
going to teach you kids you're liv-
ing in the U S. A" All those I'M
der Is we're held as juvenile delin-
quentS.
This seems to me ill-timed sever
ity and not at all III accord with
the traditions of our country. 1t
never has been the custom for the
young to hold cops in high respect.
There is nothing communiStic in
regarding men in uniform as some
thing less than little friends of all
the world. The block in which !
spent my early days was the back
bone of a good, respectable, middle
class neighborhood. 1t was a
brownstone street and. even so, no
natural instinct moved us to show
Difference to the policeman on the

ball
In unison we shouted, Brass
buttoned baby catcher" at times
when We felt he could not catch US.

BURR'S TREASON TRIAL
May %

On May %, 1907, Aaron Burr, the
W most puzzling character in
American history, went on trial for
treason in Richmond, Va.
The case aroused unprecedented
social and political interest, and al
though the full force Of the federal
government was thrown behind the
prosecution, Burr was acquitted. u
Historians have credited this YER
dict to the fact that Burr's charm
ing daughter. Thc0dosia. sat by his
side during the trial and won the
sympathy Of many
Since the case was tried before
Chief Justice Marshall, one Of the
ab'est juists in American history,
there can be no Goubt that the YER
dict was in accord with law He
was tried a second time on charge
Of misdemeanor and again freed.
History never has been able to ex-
plain satisfactorily just what Burr.
plotted to cause his arrest on the
treason charge.
After killing Alexander Hamilton
in duel in New York, he fled TO
the west. where he enlisted some
financial and military aid and is
supposed to have planned new
government, with himself at the
head, somewhere in the southwest,
possibly in Mexico.

UD a Blind Alley

THE notion prevails that some
IL genius will find substitute for
oil before it plays out, and that if
no such fortuitous event happens,
the oil will last longer than We do,
so why worry?
When the wood supply grew scarce
our forefathers learned to use coal,
and about the time coal seemed
likely to fall short of their needs,
they discovered oil.
This happy sequence of good luck
makes us all feel comfortable.
We are treasured not only by the
fact that human ingenuity has not
failed to find a better fuel. but by
the knowledge that when the oil
wells run dry there is vast guam
tity to be extracted from shale and
coal.
Still, one has to admit that the
supply is iIreplaceable and that We
are travelling up blind alley if a
substitute is not found.

The Public Will Pay
olIgh.

The decision OF the majority of the United States
supreme court in the case of the St Louis q OFaloH
railway opens the way for the collection OF untold
millions from the public by the railroads and utilities
It is difficult accurately to gauge the final import
Of the courts ruling at this time but certain facts
seem clear. Chief among them is that the railroads
and the utilities will be able substantially to increase
their valuations And this means higher rates. since
rates arc based on valuations.
The crIx of tie issue between the railway and
tho Government vas whether the valuation of the
small terminal line should be based on what 1t Wouo
cost 70 reproduce the railroad at current prices or
on what has been invested prudently in the property

nlants telephone and gas companies and othet
utilities.
The interstate commerce commission. acting under
m recapture clause of the transportation act OF lszU
had ordered the railway to return to the government

from this and similar recoveres under the Ia" was

railroads.
The railway protested that the valuation on Whlch
the 7 c. c. computed its earnings was IN error De-
cause it did not give proper consideration to the cost
of reproduction OF plant at current prices Inc
lower court upheld the 1 c. c.
Now the supreme court holds that the l. q L
did not obey the mandate OF congress requiring 'a'
due consideration be given to all elements OF Viue'
among them the cost OF reproduction.
The court significantly adds the weight 10 oe
accorded to current or reproduction costs not the
matter before us" and remarks that no DOUBT Ineie
are some and probably many railroads Whlch Siioui0
be valued far below reproduction cost.
Thus the extent to which reproduction COSTS i'iuS'
figure is left in doubt They not, apparently 10
be an absolute measuring rod Ihe oeclsioli -
line with other court rulings tending to give ncreaS
no ,ronortance TO the reproduction cost theory and
these rulings are in fact cited in the present case

reproduction cost should be given dominant con-
sheraton In another decision cited the court had
held that he weight be given such cost figures

Whalen and his SUbordinateS seem
intent upon establishing the police
as an integral part of the law itself.
Mr.. Whalen was once incautious
enough to remark, There's a lot of
law at the end of a night stick. "
In all truthfulnesS there's none at
all. A policeman is not legislator,
nor yet judicial officer.
Upon the walls of the Communist
headquarters, in Fourteenth
street, there was displayed the sign
Down With Walker Police Brutal
ity." This was naturally irritating to
men all hot and bothered by dress
parade.
Possibly the police were correct
in contending that this banner was
in violation of local ordinances, and
may be they we're right to take it
down. Even so, I hold that the po-
lice must be thick skinned enough
to suffer jeering without aggressive
reply.
If a Communist says that cops
are COSsacks, it is hardly a convinc-
ing answer to lay the fellows head
open with a night stick.
I'm not for Communists. Until
U. S. Steel goes down another 20
points the capitalistic system ill
suffice me. And see my chief COM
plant against Whalen's men : that
they did so much to give substance
and reason to radical propaganda.
AS a membeor of the exploiting
class, my quarrel is not with the
Communists. but with idiotic reac-
tionaries. AS yet I lie quite COM
fortably at nights and never toss

This Is an Oil Ace

CIR HENRY DETERDING, head
- of Royal Dutch Shell, says that
the world is in for an oil famine
if present wasteful methods of pro-
duction continue.
The chances are that it is, any
way since consumption seems bound
to increase. regardless Of methods
Of production.
This is primarily an oil age.
What is more appalling, it still is
in its infancy.
We arc not running half the au-
tomobDes we shall. if prosperity
continues. While the railroads have
net put on half the oil-burning
engines.
As for aviation. we probably shall
have ten times as many airplanes
in 1910 as there are today, not to
mention dirigibles.

HEALTH SUPERSTITIONS-N0 47--
Hair Loss Can't Affect Health

The vestal virgins of ancient
Greece had all hair cut from their
heads and wore a special veil there
after. and similar ideas are fol-
lowed in some modern churches.
The hair also is associated with
some of the construction cures in
which hair taken from the body is
tied around a pimple, wart, mole or
stye that it is desired to have dis
appear from the body.
Actually, there is not the slight
est scientific evidence to support
any of these notions. They repre-
sent the simplest form of symbol
cal magic, the attempt to conjure
on the basis of intimate control of
portions of a persons body.
The hair can not influence either
health or disease. 1t is merely an
appendage to the human body.

and other items or classes of evidence is to be de-
termined in light of the facts of the in hand"
However the OFallon case was considered a test
case Of first importance by the railroads and they
joined the OFallon company in opposing the ]. c. c.
It's effect presumably will be to upset the fifteen
years work of the l. C. c. in valuing the railroads
The extent to which their valuation will be increased
cannot be estimated accurately. If the reproduction
theory were to apply completely, the countryS rail-
road valuation would be increased from the
s23OOOOOOOOO fixed by the I. c. C. to S4O00000O0OO
This would nulIify rate regulation, since it would
be possible the roads legally to increase rates be-
yond what the traffic would bear The same rule
applied utilities would aod additional billions to
valuations and virtually nullify the effort of forty
years to buid up effective public control
Justice Brandeis, supported by Justices Holmes
and Stone dissented from the majority Brandeis
presented a scholarly and exhaustive report which
appeals to common sense. He examined the intent
of congress, and argued that the L C. C. had COM
piled fully with it.
Congress and courts, said Brandeis, intended to
leave the L c. c. "untrammeled" in its duty to give
all relevant evidence such force in its judgment
the evidence inherently possessed and this, he said
me I c. c. had done.

burning some of his hair along with
his food.
On the island of Luang, burning
of the hair or of the finger nails
with the proper charms may cause
the hands to swell.
In other islands of the South
Seas some of the mans saliva
along with his hair is wrapped up
in a red cloth and sunk in a Ger
tain grotto while charms are re-
cited.
This causes the evil spirit to come
out of the grotto and attack the
person from whom the saliva and
the hair we're taken.
1t already has been mentioned
in this series that some people be-
lieve that person will lose his
strength when his hair is cut; that
legend goes back to Samson and De-
liIah.

Think of the Future

Southern communities that are bidding for in
dustries on the plea that they furnish cheap
labor well might consider the future Labor that is
cheap" today will not be cheap tomorrow, because
labor is quick to learn its power.
North Cardinals so-called cheap labor has been
exploited, as has that of Tennessee, South Carolina
and other southern states. For time the southern
manufacturers enjoyed an advantage over New Eng
land. Now they are paying the penalty with strikes
and demands for higher wages shorter hours, and
better working conditions.
The cry of the workers will have to be needed in
the states where the strikes going Employers
may win temporary victories, individual strikes may
fail but the seed of discomfort has been Sown The
workers demand fair wage, wage similar to that
paid in the same industry in other states.
Chambers of commerce that brag of cheap labor
because of selfish desire to wrest industries from
other communities do so the price of future trouble
for their own municipalities The manufacturer may
come. The labor may be cheap for a time But in
dustrial discord will follow in due course.
Prosperous communities are those where the work
ers are contented where wages are high, and where
working and living conditions are good.

T0IephOning From Shin

TELEPHONING from ship to
Il shore or ship to ship, will be
possible within the near future, &C
cording to report issued by the
International Telephone and Tele-
graph Company.
The necessary apparatus already
has been installed on an unnamed
liner.
Since several stations have been
established for the transmission of
wireless telephone communications
overseas, there is no reason why
they should not be placed on ships.
The most intriguing aspect of the
problem is the part wireless tele-
phone may come to play on land.

Not Foreign Gold

A ND this taunt was not inspired
n. by propaganda from Moscow.
For soviet gold jingled in the pock-
cts of none of us back in the year
Of 1895.
I am trying to point out that little
conservatives are much like little
radicals iii their inevitable Opposi-
ton to duly constituted authority.
It's plainly silly to say that any
14-year-older is a juvenile delin-
ouent merely because he boots and
Kisses at a police officer. If this
stand is to be taken, then all the
members of the youngest generation
stand in grave peril Of matriculating
in reformatorieS.
But for the years which intervene
I might we'll stand inS the dock with

But never yelled epithets at
policemen. except from lofty win
dows where they could not reach
me.
But even so, the hand of the law
was felt within our set. My brother,
fully as well behaved as any of the
rest, was taken before a magistrate
on the charge of disorderly conduct.
He since has lived down this offense
and grown to be the vice-president
of a respectable corporation.
Had his affiliations been com
munistic. things might have gone
hard with MIN, for the charge read
that he struck a policeman in the
neck with a SNOWFALL. His defense,
as I remember, ran that he was not
aiming at the cop at all. but merely
attempting to hit the principal of

ance.
