Germanv'S Wisdom

Germany could not have given the world better
Christmas gift than her referendum defeat of the
called liberty bill. Here is evidence-if any were
needed-that republican Germany will continue to
cooperate with the other nations for European
struction and peace.
The referendum forced on the unwilling coun-
try by the extreme Nationalist, who would revive war
hatreds. The nominal purpose of the bill to pre-
vent "the enslavement of the German nation"
1t instructed the Berlin government to notify
all foreign powers that Germanys enforced acknowl-
edgment of guilt in the treaty of Versailles is
trary to historical truth is based false promises
and is not binding in International law
Had the bill stopped with that, it doubtless would
have carried in a popular referendum. Certainly
large majority of Germans deny and bitterly resent the
sole war guilt theory of which they are the victims
But whether that unjust myth can be destroyed by
formal German declaration is another question. Prob
ably 1t can not.
What is needed is SLOW, patient scientific research
by recognized world scholars to fix responsibility
And that is precisely what has been occurring. The
job is not complete, and can not be until all allied
governments open their archives as they should do
But enough has been done already to revolutionize
world thought the guilt question.
No informed person in any country any longer be-
lieves that Germany alone responsible. Indeed,
many D6AGV6 she was l6SS 10 DIdIIle
Russia And most intelligent persons aware
that all the powers directly and jointly response
BILE the general conditions and system which made
q World war inevitable.
In other words, Germany is winning fairer judg
ment from the world not by Official and provocative
statements in her own defense, as demanded by the
Nationalist, but by quietly waiting for international
scholarship to reveal the truth.
But such patient wisdom might have been too much
to expect of the German voters had this been the
only question in the referendum. It was not The
teeth of the bill were in the following provision:
mo further financial burdens or obligations based
on the war guilt acknowledgment shall be assumed
inclusive of those arising from the recommendations
of the Paris reparat.onS experts"
Thus the main purpose of the Nationalist and their
referendum was to kill the Young plan. They failed
Their success would have resulted in European eco
nomic chaos, perhaps worse.
BY polling only about 100000 OF the required
100000 this issue with its patriotic appeal
the Nationalist have demonstrated that they do not
represent the German people.
The new Germany is not looking backward, but
ahead. The leaders of the new Germany are not the
Hugenbergs and Hitlers this defeated referendum
but such world figures as Einstein, Mann, Eckener
and the lamented Stresemann-

Workers In the University of

The liver is actually a vast store

Not only is there a substance

1t is quite likely that the liver
contains another active principle

the blood pressure, lowering 1T at

an extract which seems to lessen

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE

I decided that something in the liver
was important in this connection.
First they fed raw liver and then
cooked liver to people with the
disease and the response of the
blood forming organs was immedi-
ate. The blood began to improve in
the number of red cells.
The red cells carry the hemob1o-
bin or red coloring matter, which
has to do with the iron in the blood
and with the ability of the blood to
carry oxygen. AS a result, patients
with perniciouS anemia improved
and were able to live a fairly nor
NAL existence.
Soon it was found that people
became nauseated after eating too
much raw liver and that they quick
ly tired of cooked liver, whether it
was boiled, fried, mixed in liver
cocktails, or prepared in any other
manner.
Then the chemists in the lab
oratory began to work on the liver
and found an extract, a dry, taste
less powder which had ali of the
power of the raw liver for restoring
the blood and which was indeed
much more potent, because q small
dose of this liver extract would equal
pounds of whole liver in It's eff
cheney. Today liver extract is the
standard treatment of perniciouS
anemia.
At the same time there were in
pernicious anemia many symptoms

WE have a habit of thinking that the hero is the

peace with whom it is just part of the days work
to take his life in his hand and he is entitled to
stand beside the military figures whose breast is
cred with medals
This hero is the miner.
That horrible casualty down at McAlester Okla,
in which sixty poor fellows lost their lives, calls at
tention once more to the continuing courage of the
man who goes down into the black earth to risk his
life he may make enough to feed and clothe his
family.
climbs inc the cage and goes down more than 5000
feet knowing that he digs the coal he may be dig
ging his grave.
The heroic service of this miner stands forth
clearly as remember that the land is filled with
wel-manicured bandits who deliberately have chosen
lives of felony rather than engage in labor that is
free from danger and if the rest of had to choose
between digging coal rohbng stores, the ranks of
the bandits would be materially increased.
Mining Is societys most hazardous business and
society in some way should take of its helpless
victims.

The Real Test

Whether the appointments of Mayor
Elect Sullivan to various offices are good or
bad will be proved by their action after they
begin to function.
1t should be unfortunate if any selections
now being made should be influenced by
either party politics or personal contracts.
1t must not be forgotten that the people
of Indianapolis demanded the city manager
form of government and, when the supreme
court assassinated their hopes, they turned
to Sullivan as the one means of recording
an emphatic protest against the political in
trigue which they believed-and had a right
to belieye-had robbed them of their right.
What the people demand is service that
can only come through an administration that
is dominated neither by partisan appeal nor
the personal ambitions or affections of the
man who holds the place of power.
The real test to apply to any appointment
is merely the question of whether the man
chosen would be selected by city manager
intent upon the most economical and efficient
administration.
Those who insist that the election of Sui
Ivan was triumph of the Democratic party
are badly mistaken. It was a revolt against
Coffinism.
If there be those who insist that there was
personal victory involved, the facts are
much against them, for his opponent was
held in high esteem as citizen, as unselfish
in his viewpoint, as most capable.
Those selections which measure up to the
standards set by the thousands Of men and
women who voted for the city manager plan
of government, will meet approval. 1t is
to be hoped that none will be made which fail
to meet this test.

I'd UTHERFORD then proceeded
N to other experiments in which
he used the alpha rays or particles
from radium as bullets to lombard
the atoms of other substances.
BY these experiments, he showed
that the atom possessed a structure
resembling a miniature solar sys-
TEN: He showed that the atom con-
sisted of a nucleus surrounded by
planetary electrons.
Two of Rutherford's own stu
dents developed this theory Of Ru-

death in the Galipoli campaign has
been referred to as England's great
est loss in the World war, and DR..
Neils Bohr of Copenhagen, author
of the Bohr theory of the atom.
According to this theory, the
atom has nucleus composed of
positive and negative electrons,
while negative electrons revolve In
various orbits around the nucleus.
Rutherford was born in New
Zealand and educated at the Uni
versity of New Zealand and Cam
bridge university, England.
From 1893 to 1907, he was profess
