tannage, comes much of the worlds

By controlling and maintaining this
peak of quality, International can and
does put better grades of leather into
every type of shoe. And by producing
the leather within its own tanneries, il
puts this quality into its shoes at costs
which represent saving of millions of
dollars year in comparison with open

passed on to the wearers in the form
Of lower prices for International Shoes

1.-TWO SIMPLE WORDS express the
L foundation of quality which has
made International the greatest manu-
facturer of shoes in the world.
The two words are sail LEATHER" T.
The significance of these words places
fifty million pairs of International Shoes
on Americas feet each year. Two hun
dred million dollars spent annually for
these shoes measure the value which
wearers place on the quality for which
the two words stand.
"AH leather" in the code Of Inter-
national quality, means that more than
those parts which the eye can see must
be of leather. Wherever leather should
be in a shoe, International uses leather
from its highest priced pair to its
lowest. Substitution is not tolerated.
By these two words, the products of an
entire industry are coming to be judged.

an agreement in the oil industry which
would curtail production this year to

A Low Level

Whatever other resolutions should be made by
the citizens of Indianapolis the most imperative
that the next school election will provide gov
erring body which will not duplicate the disgrace
full quarrels rows and chickering's that occur
1t might even be decided that the chief concern
of the schools shall be the education of children in
stead of taking of a political contractor.
Certainly public confidence receives jolt when
factional changes within the board follow the giving
of jobs to relatives of its members.
The interests of the children should not depend
on whether the son of one member or the sonin-law
of another gets job in the school garare.
That the control of schools is placed in such hands
and could reach so low level suggests that perhaps
the public school system is failure.
1t hardly seems possible that after nearly a cen
fury of free schools it would be possible for any
community to place them in the hands of those who
would juggIe with their interests so patry basis

Einstein s Field Theory
No. 1903

TIME DEVELOPMENT of MaxWeus theory OF the
electromagnetic nature of light upset the scheme
of the universe which had been formulated by newton
Professor Einsein points out that TINS 1acC generally
ESCAPED the attention of the scientific world
According to Newton, space provided only sorI
of environment in which the events OF the physical
universe took part 1t did not play any actual part
in physical occurrences The gravltatlonal attracVon
between two objects was property of those objects
Space had nothing to do with 1T.
But when Maxwell advanced his electromagnetlc
theory and Hertz confirmed it with his brilliant ex-
periments, space played new role.
Physicists patched up the crack between NeWtonS
theories and MaxwelIs theories by nventing hypo-
thetical medium called the ether.
Empty space was said to be nleo WIN thlS NJ
tangible but elastic medium called the ether OF
space
When an electric current flowed through a wire, a
magnetic field was established around the WIRE In
other words, something happened to the space or
the ether of space around the WIRE
Hertz showed that electromagnetic waves, that Is
electrical and magnetic fields strains could be de-
veIoped in space and sent through space
Light according to Maxwell, is just such held
which breaks loose from its and travels through
space :
the theories from Maxwell to his own which deal with
the nature of electromagnetic fields.
His newest theory is an attempt TO snow tnaG tpere
is gravitationaI field in space which fundamentally
is the same the electromagnetic Held In that the
behavior of both fields be developed from certain
fundamental assumptions to the nature OF space.
Enstein admits however that his new theory does
not clear up the difficulties which lie in the quantum
theory the theory which holds that energy exists IN
the form of separate particles and not IN the form
of waves
Enstein has developed all his theories the special
theory of RELATIVELY the general theory of relatively
and his field theory by starting with MaxWeHs
theory of the electromagnetic field.
We now are ready to trace the development OF
these theories We will see next how he arrived at
the special theory OF relatively.

New York Points the Way

The city of New York is preparing to spend $1O7,-
100000 for construction of necessary bridges and t-
nes without increasing taxes adding to the bonded
indebtedness of the city Bonds will be issued against
the projects Tolls will pay interest the bonds and
eventually retire chem, leaving the works in pos
session of the public for free use.
The port of New York authority, which is a public
organization representing New York and New jersey
previously had arranged for construction OF four
bridges at cost of $1O0000Oo0 The famous Holland
vehicuar tunnel built by the public at cost OF
$48oOOOOO and will be paid for by tolls.
States and municipalities finding similar develop
ments difficult because of high taxes and heavy
bonded indebtedness will be interested in New Yorks
solution of her problem.
In particular it may point the way to elimination
of the toll bridge evil about which there has been
much discussion OF late.
The number of such bridges erected on public
highways throughout the country in recent years has
been increasing rapidly. Congress last session con-
sdered legislation to eliminate them, but took no
action it. 1t did, however approve construction OF
a large number of new toll bridges
These toll bridges, which pay promoters large
profits constitute barrier to traffic and perpetual
tax on the public for the use of what should be
public facilities.
How much better it is for the public itself to
borrow money at a low rate of interest, do its own
building let profits pay off the investment, and finally
have free thoroughfares.

Good Use fol-. Ak

MYTH regard to law, as with
w regard to so many other
things, we have thought too much
about quantity and too little about
quality, have prided ourselves on
volume, yielded to the pressure of
sa1esmanship and measured success
by the size of the heap.
When I was in Ohio some eight
weeks ago, the legislature had 156
bills before it, though only twenty
four hours old. In California a
month later. the legislature was
wrestling with nearly 1000 bills
though only half through.
The Texas legislature. is to be
commended for passing less than
300 bills, most of them local in
character, or Of no consequence. 1t
deserves special commentator for
killing the anti-evolution bill The
bill by which ice dealers would have
come under the head of public
utilities and the oil conservation
bill.
We have reached point in our
manufacture of law where legiSla-
lures should use the ak when in
doubt. The public can better afford
to pay them for doing nothing than
for adding to the clutter and con-
fusion,
