word would right wrong
Thirty to forty conucts from the state prison farm
have been employed by the maintenance division OF
the state highway department on roads in Putnam
county deprivng thirty to forty obess men Of the OPP
portunity to earn money for their families
This course is not illegal but it manifestly is IN
lair TO workingmen of Indiana. 1t certainly is Ill
advised during this period Of unemployment
Trustees OF the state farm evade responsibility
SO does Governor Harry c. Leslie TWO petitions,
from Putnam and Owen counties, were sent to state
farm trustees on Sept. and 6. These petitions bore
approximately 600 Names according to information at
the statehouse They protested employment OF con-
victs on jobs needed by free men, jobless men with
families
Farm trustees took action, forwarding the petl-
ton to Governor Leslie The states chief executive ana
nothing when a word from him would have remedled
the conditions He ordered the petitions sent back to
the farm Monday more than two weeks after they
were submitted.
There is little to expect any oenehcial &C

The Governor and the state highway commission did
nothing to relieve the slave wage scandal on state

Of the cases could there be found
any definite change in the nervous
system, although an actual psyche
logic base was discovered in only
twenty Of the 1T.
The difficulty apparently has to
do with the fact that the mental
manifestation is associated with a
complete unwillingness to discuss
the mental side of the case.
AS has been mentioned previ-
ously in these columns, it is some
times possible to increase the rate
of digestion and absorption of food
in the human body by giving thy
roid to raise the rate Of the basal
metabolism.
In some cases in the group here
discussed this was attempted and
the metabolism rate was elevated.
However, there is great danger in
the method.
If the patient absolutely refuses
to eat with the rate elevated, there
is failure to increase the intake
of food and loss of weight, which
takes place more rapidly.
In some instances it is possible to
force these patients to put on weight
by putting a tube into the stomach
and inserting food in that manner
at the same time that the metabolic
rate is increased.
Sometimes following removal of
the tube, the patient becomes will

The Lynching Probe
generation

AT last notable group of southerners has set
out to make scientific investigation of the American
form of savagery known lynchng. 1t is high time
for already there have been eighteen Iynchings in
1880, while the dshonor roll of all of 1929 was only
twelve.
The problem is not alone southern or sectional:
it is national. Indiana recently made its contrbu-
ton to the list. The mob spirit is rife in the north
as in the south
Nor is the problem solely racial. There are white
victims also
Probably no better group could have been found
for the investigation than that chosen by the COM
mission on inter-racal cooperation. George Fort
Milton, the chairman, is editor of the Chattanooga
News and a publiciSt Of distinction.
Julian Harris another southern editor in 1926
awarded the national Pulitzer prize journalism
for "the most dsinteresed and meritorious service
which included his fight for justice for the Negro
and against lynching" Howard w Odum is head
of the social science institute of the University of
North Carolina.
The other members are: Alex w. Spence, Dallas
attorney; w. P King, book editor of the Methodist
Episcopal church, south, and W. j. McGlothlin pres-
dent of Furman university and of the Southern Bap-
fist convention.
Equally able is the advisory Negro college COM
mittee chosen: r. r. Motion, principal of Tuskegee;
S. Johnson of Fisk university, and B. F. Huber pres-
dent of Georgia State college.
Presumably these investigators will have the CO.
operation of the eight southern Governors who re-
Gently pledged themselves to fight this evil. Ger
tainly the aid of all official we'll commercial
and educational institutions is needed to make the
investigation a success.
The commission in nter-racial cooperation in
appointing the investigators did not exaggerate in
describing the situation ominous that the peo
pie must confront afresh their task of indicating
law and civilization
But however successful this investigating group
may be in uncoverng the and fixing the blame
for this barbarous system it hardly can do more in
the end than reveal the dire need for federal legis
lation and enforcement part of the solution.
If the administration in Washington carries out
its platform pledge to help the Negro, it will insist
on enactment of federal anti-lynching law. Once
before such bill passed the house. only to be killed
by a senate minority filibuster
Now Cole Blease and some other southern sem
ators in that hlibuser have been repudated by the
voters So the administration should not have great
difficulty in passing such law, if it acts with vigor
and determination.

Our Debt to Morrow

Dwight Morrow is coming home. He is leaving

Great MeteoriteS

THE largest meteorite on exhibit
Il ton is one at the American
Museum of Natural History in New
York. 1t weighs thirty-SiX and one
half tons. 1t is almost eleven feet
high, seven feet long and five feet
wide.
1t is more usual, however for a
meteoric fall to consist of num-
Der of small pieces rather than one
large one. Sometimes the number
will rull into the thousands.
In northeastern Arizona, near
Canon Diablo, there is a great era
ter in the desert. 1t is 1000 feet in
diameter. It's walls rise about $50
feet above the desert. The interior
of the crater sinks to a depth of
600 feet.
Thousands of small iron meteor
ties have been picked up in the
vincity.
Astronomers are convinced that
the great crater was formed by the
impact of huge meteor or swarm
of meteors.
The largest swarm Of meteorites
known to have struck the earth in
modern times, landed in northern
Siberia, 500 miles north Of Taishet,
a village on the Siberian rail-
way, on July 80, 1908.
1t made more than 200 depres-
sions, some of them more than
seventy-five feet in diameter. In
vestigators found the ground around
the depressions for fifteen miles in
all directions scared and charred as
if the vegetation had been burned
off with gigantic blow-torches.

Noise of Explosion

TINE new meteorite was found in
l. a pasture, where it had buried
itself to a depth of eight feet by its
impact DR.. G. G. Wylie, professor
of astronomy at the University OF
Iowa, who visited the site, believes
that the meteorite was moving
rather slowly when it struck, and
that it came from the northeast at
rather low angle.
1t struck with crash like that of
an explosion. Farmers in the neigh
bodhood and the residents of Para
gould were awakened by the eXplo-
sion.
1t is reported that at Poplar Bluff,
about sixty miles from the site, the
policeman on night duty thought
that bank had been dynamited,
and Immediately made an inspec-
ton of the towns bank.
The noise of the explosion was
heard in northwestern Arkansas
and nearby territory of Mississippi
and Tennessee.
The meteorite cut so brilliant a
path through the heavens during its
fall that at st. Louis many people
thought an airplane was falling in
flames at the local airport.
The fact that Professor Wyle re-
ports that the meteorite was moving
slowly when it landed may seem
surprising at first. But his observa-
ton is borne out by past meteorites.
It is believed that meteorites are
slowed down as they near the
earth's surface by the high resist
ance of the air.
There is a record of some small
meteoriteS landing on the ice of a
lake near Upsala, Sweden, in Jan
uary, 1860, without breaking the

Questions and
AnSzOe9S

What was the Russian diSarma-
ment plan proposed by Maxim Lit
vinOff in the last Geneva disarma
ment conference?
The plan called for abolition of
armies and navies as a practical
step toward real disarmament. 1t
also proposed that only such force
as is necessary for internal protec-
ton, sort of police force, should
be maintained by each country. The
plan was rejected by the other
powers.
Is the south pole colder than the
north pole?
At the south pole the tempera-
ture is frequently so and 10 degrees
F, below zero during the southern
winter, and it is colder than the
north pole, due to the very con-
siderable elevation above the sea.
Does South America lead the
world in the production of rubber?
British Malaga leads in the pro-
duction of rubber due to intensive
cultivation of the plant.
Who is the author of the proverb
"If the mountain will not go to Mo-
hamet, Mohamet must go to the
mountain?
The proverb appears in Bacon's
Essays on Boldness," and is found
in all modern languages. The source
of the proverb can not BE- traced
otherwise.
What is the pay Of a captain in
the United States navy?
The base pay is $4,000 to $4,000,
to which is added allowances for
rent and subsistence. The exact
amount received depends on the
length of service, whether the off,
Ger is married or single, and whether
on sea duty or stationed on land.
Are Indians citizens of the United
States?
All Indians born in the United
States are citizens.
How many theaters in the United
States are equipped for sound pic
lures?
Of the $4,000 theaters in the
country about half are equipped for
sound pictures.

Mental Troubles Affect Appetite

ing to eat, but in other cases it is
necessary to keep the tube in use
for long periods of time.
1t also is difficult to establish the
exact dosage of the thyroid that
may be necessary and safe in the
individual case.
In only one case did death occur
while the patient was under treat
ment, that death being due to bron-
pneumonia, which developed
while the patient was being studied,
rather than due to starvation.
1t is, of course, realized that long
continued starvation produces con-
ditions in which the body is sub
ject to easy infection.
Apparently after a patient has
starved himself for considerable
time and lost a good deal Of weight,
the basal metabolism is lowered, so
that much less food is required to
keep the emaciated body going.
If this were not the case, death
would ensue promptly. The sad as
pect of the matter is that degene-
rative changes occur due to the long
continued malnutrition.
Eventually when the mind is re-
stored to normal function. the pa
tent may wish to begin eating
again, but finds that the tissues
have degenerated SO badly that per-
