FEMALES SURPASS
 MALES IN ENERGY
Women's Vitality Endures Heat
 Better Than Men in Test

Cold Spring Harbor, N. Y, Aug 19 lP-DisCovery that the feminine body stands high temperature bet ter than the male has been made at Carnegie institution.
 The finding is said by it's author, Dr. Oscar Riddle, to be an import ant part of the processes of nature that determine sex.
 He finds that high temperature slows down male metabolism more than female. Metabolsm is the production Of energy, Ordinarily from youth to old age male meta bolism produces more energy than female, so the Carnegie discovery means that the male loses his mar gin Of energy superiority when the temperature goes too high. It was disclosed in five years experiment. ing with ring doves and pigeons, but Dr. Riddle quotes experiments of several other scientists 10 show that it probably applies also to hu- mans.
 We are now able to report and fully establish--for the first time in any animal'-he says in a report written for the second international sex congress, "a differentfal re- sponse in the sexes 10 metabolism measurements at higher and lower temperatures"
 Energy Falls Down
 At 6S degrees the males showed an energy production Of 3S61 calor- ies; the females 3749. When the temperature was raised to St Fahrenheit the male calory produc- ton dropped 10 2777, going lower than the female which dropped only 2989. The decrease was 2S.1 Der cent for the malea and oQ.3 for the females.
 Dr. Riddle says the male, includ- ing man, has more red blood cells than the female and more of the red pigment that gives the color to blood. This pigment, hemoglobin, is the stuff that picks up oxygen in the lungs and carries it through the body. In ring doves and pigeons the excess red pigment of male is to g per cent.
 Upon and around such general conditions" says Dr Riddle. "as higher level of tissue oXidatons (use of oXygen) in the male, differential sex response 10 temperature, and extra hemoglobin in the male blood. are suspended the vital functional levels of most or all the parts of the organism. These are the things that most directly determine the musCu- lar and all other effort expended in respiration, the work Of the Circula- tory organs, the regulation of heat loss, together with the level and de gree. of nerve action thus involved; directly or indirectly they Calibrate the digestive work, secretory flow and eXcretorY output.
 They are thus deeply vital, inter- nal and functional things. They oper- ate~-Snd persist during all stages of life They are the various facets of basic metabolic difference - each stage of which is easily indentfiable and measurable also as a sex differ ence. They constitute the primary sex difference
 pr. Riddle says the metabolism differences should lead to better un- derstandng of the work of those scientists who now fix at will the sex of some small animals before birth, and of those who at will cause sex to change or reverse in some liv- ing things of very simple structure.

prevailed. Thousands attired in
grotesque costumes and masks
forgot dignity, and sailed forth
to make a night Of it along the
streets and in the leading hotels,
restaurants and night clubs.
Crowds Out Early
Crowds began to flock to F

A prediction scare was thrown

Texan, who may be returned with
enough backing ODE able to
pare District expenditures to the
bone.
Has Been Silent
The outcome of events Is en-
tirely problematical. Represent.
ative Blanton has been oHnniously
silent on District affairs since he
was elected to fill the unexpired
term Of Representative r. G. Lee,
who died while in office a few
short weeks before the last ses-
sion ended. but the past actions
Of the redoubtable figure are
enough to make officials expect
most anything from that quarter.

But no one with any kaowl-
edge of the Texan has any doubt
that Representative Blanton, on

with "a Democratic m q jority.
would be a formidable figure.
Expensive projects would wither
and die before him and actual

estimated to get by his close

Old White House Laundry
Being Made Into Offices

Administrations, when there was
only one secretary to the Presi-
dent were entirely too small. A
sloping lawn was dug away from
one side Of the building, windows
were placed in the lower wall and
the whole basement was sub
divided into offices.
When the fire last Christmas
eve forced a complete rebuilding
of the offices, President Hoover
at first was inclined to have q.
building of considerable parts
constructed. He did not do this,
however, because such q structure
would have ruined the, symmetry
of the White House. The offices,
therefore, were restored as before,
and the social bureau was given
space in the basement Of the
house proper.
The laundry room is located in
the west wing connecting the

offices. The laundry win be

ing reelection for q third term,
claims to have 20 votes pledged.
Henry I. Quinn. prominent at

The total number Of votes the
candidates claim to have pledged
is Isl. The total number Of votes

fident Of a victory, and the over
estimated number of pledges" /"
much interest has centered upon
the outcome.
DR.. Havenner bases his plea
for reelection on the work of the
federation during the past two
years. He points out that during
his leadership, nine citizens as
sociationS have joined the feder-
alton, and that the free text
books act for public schools was
passed. He also points to the aid
the federation gave in having sal
aries of police and firemen raised,
in getting the Champion park
bill passed, and in obtaining two
additional judges for the Court
Of Appeals.
Mr.. Quinn, however, says that
DIR. Havenner should not be given
more credit than any other dele

He says that Mr.. Stengle was
more active than anyone else in
getting legislation passed. In all,
Mr.. Stengle appeared before Con.
