Dumber Animals

A LESSON which can be learned
IA by dumber animals need not
remain forever beyond the scope of
humankind
And, as matter Of fact, I've
always felt that war does a VIC
lence to human nature never known
in times of peace. I always have
remembered story told to me by
d British officer, who served at Gal
lipoli.
Word came that young British
captain had been captured, and the
intelligence service reported that a
German would slip into the lines
wearing the uniform and giving the
name of the missing man. The spy
soon was discovered. There was a
perfunctory trial and he was SEN
fenced to be shot in one hour.

Look at Robin Hood

MIR. CAPONE not only is unor-
AVA thodox in his methods, but I'M
original, which makes the offense
doubly grave.
Robin Hood beat him to it by 900
years, and you know what we think
of Robin Hood-what dismal fail
ure he has proved in romantic liter
ture, and how children are forbid
den to read about him.
Feeding the poor by grating on
the rich ever has been contrary to
law, but how about the nursery?
The difference between the way
we teach our children to think of
racketeers who have been dead a
few generations and the way we
teach them to think of those still
alive, represents one or the most Gu
rious inconsistencies to which flesh
is heir.
Those experts who would like to
solve our social and economic prob
lens could do worse than give it
some attention.

IRON is a constituent normally

also an important constituent Of
the red coloring matter in the

A large amount of this red
coloring matter is used up dur

this time iron is necessary. The
amount of iron in human milk is
small and there is even less in
most cows milk.
Infants fed on the breast get
just enough iron to satisfy their

SCIENCE
Pasadena No10 Ranks as the
"Capital' Of Several
Branches of Science.
BY DAVID DIETZ-

Branches of Science.
lT OS ANGELES is known through
- out the world as the home Of
the booster. One of its suburbs,
Hollywood, is the motion picture
capital of the world.
Another of its suburbs. Pasadena,
is known to many. perhaps, as a
beautiful winter resort, frequented
by many of the nations million
aires.
But Pasadena possesses other dis
tinctionS. The world at large, per-
haps, will become acquainted with
them as a result of the proposed
visit to the United States of Pro-
fessor Albert Einstein of relatively
fame.
Professor Einstein is coming to
America chiefly to visit Pasadena.
not chiefly because of that city's
beautiful palm trees. wide boulevards
and lovely homes, but because
Pasadena has become one of the
great scientific centerS of the world
Some authorities would rank Pas
adena as the capital in several
branches of science. Certainly, it is
one of the worlds greatest centers
for astronomy. astropllysics, amthe-
maticalu physics and relatively.
Two institutions give Pasadena its
pre-eminence. One is the Mt. Will
son observatory, the other is the
California Institute of Technology.
The astronomical instruments of
the Mt Wilson observatory stand
on Mt. Wilson, a peak in the range
of mountains directly behind Pasa-
dena
However, the observatory's exec
utive Office, library. laboratory and
machine shop are housed in a group
of buildings in Pasadena.

claims for which there is justification whatever in
international law. How did we settle our claims
against the British, who mad done infinitely more
damage as neutral state before 1917?
Just before we entered the World war. Secretary
Lansing assured the American people that our claims
against Great Britain for damages to our shipping,
etc. would be pressed decisively at the close of the
war. These claims amounted to something over $780,
oOOC00 and had far better standing in international
law than the Alabama" claims for which we fought
so doggedy after the Civil war How far did our state
department keep the faith of Secretary Lansing with
American claimants?
On May 10, 1927 an arrangement made by Messrs.
Olds and Phentx was signed BY this time we cut
down our claims to per cent of what they actually
amounted to. We accepted the sum Of s1,5O0O0O.
Even this pittance We actually did not receive. We
allowed it to be Cancelled by bill alleged to be owed
to Great Britain by the United States navy for
ices during the World
This settlement not only was ridiculous but IN
constitutional Congress not consulted about
of the most important matters affecting foreign
policy. The settlement made under and
very quiet by executive arrangements. It never was
submitted to the senate. 1t slipped by without sig
nifcant publicity from the press.
There is doubt that this settlement with Britain
set bad precedent. It was unconstitutional in
method and unwise in character. 1t placed nasty
stumbling block in the path of future collections for
damages done to trade.
It is all right to be generous to our impoverished
neghboTs in Europe But let us be generous all around
and not confound generosity with surrender of our
international rights.
The sensible thing would have been to insist upon
legal right to full damages from both Britain and
Germany. Having won. might we'll have
celed decent portion of awards in the interest
of the economic recovery OF Europe
If had done this our reputation for mag
nanin1ity would have been enhanced greatly and our
legal position for future action enormously stronger

Usual Charity Bdllyhoo.
A NEW electric sign made its
IA appearance in Chicago some
weeks ago. It was not very big and
not particularly novel, but still big
enough and novel enough to attract
attention, especially on the part Of
organized charity.
It announced that soup, dough-
nuts and coffee would be served
free.
AS might be expected, the ortho-
dox sponsors of relief were wor-
ried. Who had put up the sign,
who was footing the bills and,
above all else, where was the bally-
HOOP
Organized charity hardly could
believe its own eyes. Such a thing
had not occurred within the memory
of the oldest living inhabitant. The
idea of any one offering free food
without naming himself and getting
all the publicity that was in it
seemed incredible

Questions and
Answers

Is it safe to say that the majority
Of persons in the world are honest?
Yes. If this were not so, the
enormous credit structure of the
country could not exist. Millions
Of persons are trusted daily with all
sorts of property, and the result
on the whole is satisfactory. There
are about forty million persons en-
ployed at jobs Of all kinds in the
United States, and it is safe to say
that the vast majority Of them are
at one time or another, if not con-
tinuously. trusted with money, prop
erty, machinery. materials of all
kinds. On the whole, they prove
honest and conscientious; if the ma
jority of them were dishonest,
manufacturing, business, banking
and industry could hardly exist.
How old was Quentin Roosevelt
when he was killed, and how did
it occur?
He was killed in action July Il,
1918. near Chambray and was buried
there with full military honors by
German airmen. Sergeant Danhau-
ser of the German air service
claimed that he shot down the Nieu-
port % plane in which young Roose-
welt was flying. Roosevelt was 81
years old.
When was Kerensky the premier
of Russia? What was his previous
occupation?
He was premier during the per-
iod from July. 1917. until the Lenin
revolution in November of the same
year. He was lawyer who distin-
guished himself by defending work
men, political offenders and Jews.

All Out of Order

A ND now that the horrible truth
IA is out, what are we going to
do about it?
Of course, the idea Of Mr.. Ca
pone giving away soup, doughnuts,
and coffee is not so bad, but the
idea of his doing it in such an I'M
usual way needs study.
One can not deny even a rack
eteer his right to be charitable, but
one can question the wisdom of
permitting him to exercise it with
out going through the prescribed
motions.
What is all the experiences for,
that it should be fouted in such
manner?
Who ever heard of man, or a
group of men, offering to feed hun
cry folks without first getting the

izing a committee, announcing the

This ought to please the
members of the Washington
baseball team, as well as the
Washington baseball fans-the
fact that Joe Cronin is receiv-
ing as many votes in the Babe
Ruth. contest as Travis Jack

Other outstanding candidates

In all probability Griffith
Stadium will be equipped with

another season has rolled

willing to spend money for the
improvement of conditions for
the spectators, and in that the

money this year, the amplifiers
are bound to come before an
other season.
People in remote sections of
the stands do not get the one
megaphone announcements in
vogue now, and during hot
moments when the crowd is in
an uproar and a manager
makes a change in personnel,
hardly anybody hears the
name of the newcomer.
We are a little late In say
ing this, but it occurred to us
the other day that when Sam
Breadon signed Gabby Street
to manage the Cards again in
1881, some sort of a record was
being made, as the Scalps of
Cardinal managers have been
strictly one-year propositions
since Branch Hickey laid down
the reins six or eight years
ago.
And speaking Of managers,
there is a persistent rurnor in
Washington to the effect Joe
Judge will be managing a big
league entry in 1881, but just
what entry, rumor Sayeth not.

ANOTHER CUM
STARS At GOLF

Will Gum, ir., a brother of
the famous Watts Gum, has
started out to add more gloIy
to Atlanta as a breeder of golf
talent. Recently the youthful
Gum, who is but 19 and in no
way resembling his more Skillful
brother in looks or golfing style,
stepped into the limelight at
Shawnee-on-the-De Delaware recently
when he won the Buckwood
Trophy Invitation tournament. A..
It was a strong field that
young Gum worked his way
through and included such old
campaigners as Max Kaesche;
Wayne Haley, who once reached
the Semi-finals in the British
amateur; Page Hufty, former
North and South champion: E.
G.. B. Riley; Ellis Adams and two
promising youngsters Mark
Stuart, who has been a sensation
this summer, and Harold Guth-
bert, son of Dave Guthbert, the

exactly a Gallant Fox, but
keeping him on the bench is
no way to prove that he isn't.
With the return to form Of
George Pipgras, the New York
Yankees may yet make a noise
in the American League race.
This new squirt of Pipgras'
comes after it had begun to ap-
pear that the season was to be
a bust for the big speed ball
pitcher. His first ball was as
fast as ever, and his curve
carried the usual hook. But
hostile bats were always swing
ing in the path of Georges
pitches and the ball was going
here, there and everywhere.
The only answer was to be
found in the fact that PipgraS
was making his pitches too
good" In baseball parlance
that .signified that he was
throwing too many just where
the batters wanted them. In
the recent Western jaunt Of
the Yankees George was belted
so hard and so frequently that
he decided he could not win a
ball game. Something always
happened at the wrong time
when he was in the box.
"T can't understand it," Bob
Shawkey frequently said, and
Pipgras Joined his boss in the
wOnderment. "He has as much
speed as ever, and George is as
strong as he ever was. There is
nothing to explain it unless he
is putting the ball over too well.
I would worry about him If he
was losing his stuff. but he
isn't. He has as much as he
ever had, but he can't win with
it,"
Then the change to winning
form which none can explain.
He has no more speed now than
he had in the West. no better
{ curve, and under no system of
figuring is he any better pitcher
today than he" was for almost a
month when he was unable to
turn in a victory. Yet the
games are just falling into his
lap.
