SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 23.-The
Pacific Telephone and Telegraph
Company, forced by subpenas to
divulge the address of confidential
phone patrons and assist federal
prohibition officers to make raids
on alleged telephone bootleg
dealers" is baking at procedure
it claims is illegal.
1t Is believed that If another sub
pena is issued by United States
Commissioner Arthur Fiske, the
phone company will resist and ap-
peal to the courts. It probably win
demand a ruling of the supreme
court on proceeding which, Il
adopted generally in the United
States, will make the phone COM
panies of America an integral part
of dry enforcement and the phone
company officials effectual dry
officers.
What inks the local concerns
officials especially is that in aiding
the dry squads they are forced to
violate cOnnQent1al relaClonS WIN
their own patrons.
The first case under the new pro-
cedure comes to test before Com
missioner F'iske on Dec. q, when
Frank Reynolds, alleged telephone
bootlegger," comes to preliminary
trial. Defense Counsels Harold
Faulkner and James O'Connor have
subpenaed E. T. O'Donnell, phone
company Office manager, to tell
what he knows of the unusual pro-
ceedings.
One question to be settled is the
report that Colonel George Seaver,
chief enforcement officer, served an
ultimatum on the phone company
and threatened arrest Of its Of
ficials for furnishing phones IN a
conspiracy to violate the dry law.
The phone company will appear

DIES MONIES, Dec. 23.-Science
rs the servant to the corn crop, and
science as the crown Of the human
intellect will share honors at the
annual meeting Of the American
Association for the Advancement of
Science and affiliated scientific
societies, which will be In session
here and at Iowa State college at
Ames, from Dec. 26 TO Jan. 2.
In recognition Of the location Of
the place of meeting in the center
of the greatest grain-raising area
In the world, several special groups
Of addresses, have been arranged
with special reference to the
scientific problems involved in the
raising of corn, in the improvement
Of It's varieties, and in the most
effective utilization of the grain and
its by-products.
Prairies Best for Corn
Other agricultural and natural
history subjects relating to scientific
problems Of the prairie regions are
booked to receive special attention.
The prairies; wide stretches of low,
rolling hills originally clothed with
wild grass, and now supporting the
great tame grasses men call corn
and other grains, have proved to
be the best corn lands wherever
they have been found. One of the
tasks to which geological botanists
have set themselves is to learn why
prairies have been so especially
adapted to grain farming.
Another group of papers will con-
Germ itself with soil chemistry,
especially with the delicate balance
between soil acidity and alkalinity
which often means the difference
between success and failure of a
given crop, or determines the whole
character of the natural vegetation
Of the countryside.
Osborn VIII Talk
But man does not live by bread
alone, even In the granary Of
America. Leading places on the
program are devoted to discussions
Of higher mathematics, of the
newest methods in psychology and
education, Of the origin of man him
self. The principal paper of the
meeting, the retiring presidential
address of DR.. Henry Fairfield
Osborn Of the American Museum of
Natural History and Columbia
university, will concern itself with
an ancestry of modern man run
ming far beyond the few scores or
hundreds of thousands of years now
popularity assigned as its time limit.
The American Association for the
Advancement of Science is the
largest general scientific society in
the world, and its annual meetings
are clearinghouse for the years
accumulationS of new scientific facts
and interpretations. The total
membership is in the neighborhood
of 10000.
