Different Parts of the Human
Body Mature at Diferena
Periods.
THE human body does not mas
i ture as a unit, but, instead, dii-
ferent parts of the body mature
at different periods. This is one OF
the important conclusions which
have been established by the work.
of the Brush Foundation, under
direction of DR.. T. Wingate TODD
famed anatomist.
The work has disclosed the fol~
lowing interesting facts about the
rate of growth:
The ear bones are of fully adult
size at birth.
y That part of the nose which IS
responsible for the sense of smell
and the central part of the jaws,
which lodge the cutting or incisor
teeth. are completely grown at six
months.
The eyeballs are perfected soon
after birth and increase in size
very little after the first year
The brain is at least four-1ifths
its adult size at years.
BY IA years the permanent teeths
except the erratic wisdom teeth
are all in place and the fingers fully
grown, with their bones completely
formed.
BY 10 years the sex organs have
reached maturity and at 20 the
limb skeleton is fully grown.
The chest, however, is scarcely
adult at 25.
The foot shows gradual modihca-
tons till As.
That part of the brain which,
registers experience does not reach
its limit of growth before 60.

Where Do We Stand2
THE Brazilian case carries al

THE Brazilian case carries an
L other inference which seems
worth more than a passing thought,
and that is with regard to the sig
nificance which should be attached
to recognition, or nonrecognition.
on our part.
Are we undertaking to trademark
governments through the extension,
or withdrawal, O. our diplomatic ia
Vors?
If we exchange ambassadors, or
ministers, with certain government,
is the world to understand that we
approve it and will do what we can
to sustain it, without actually max
ing war in its behalf?
On the other hand, if we do not
exchange ambassadors, or minis
tiers, with a certain government, is
the world to understand that we
disapprove it and will look with IA
vor On revolt against it?
If that is the big idea, we are
reversing one of the basic princi-
pies on which our own government
was founded.
Fathers Did Pretty Well
TINE fathers of this republic seem
l. to have regarded recogni-
ton as little more than a necessary
business arrangement, and as carry
ing no implication whatsoever with
respect to their attitude
If they felt revolution was
justified, they did not let a little
thing like diplomacy stand in the
way of their outspoken approval
They found it possible to harbor
refugees without breaking off rela-
tons and to denounce tyranny with
out recalling diplomatic representa-
tives,
Maybe they are wrong, but it is
only fair to say that they not only
got along pretty well, but con-
tributed quite a bit toward mod
ernizing and improving government
throughout the civilized world.
There's a Fair Way
1T is beside the mark to argue
L whether the present revolt in
Brazil was warranted, since the
course We are pursuing seems to be
predicted on the principle of recog-
milton, and since we are willing to
sell arms to the existing govern
ment, while refusing to sell them to
the revolutionists. without asking
too many questions or taking too
much time to make up our minds.
There is little reason to suppose
that We would pursue a different
course if the Italians were to Rebel
against Mussolini, or the Abyssin-
ians were to attempt the formation
of republic
In other words, we seem to be
sold on the status quo, on the main
tenance of order under the status
quo, and on the idea of not encourag-
ing any changes, unless they can
be brought about by peaceful means,
though much Of the status quo was
designed to prevent such changes by
such means.
From an academic standpoint, the
proposition may be sound, but it's
mighty tough on oppressed people,
and it won't stop revolution.
Wouldn't it be just as fair and
serve an equally good purpose to ad-
NIT the element of human rights,
the possibility of improvement at
the expense of disorder, if not the
necessity, sell arms to both sides if
we sell to one, or let the embargo
include both if it is justified for
either.

Even Among Arabs

NOR is the interest and curiosity
IN in these deplorable affairs OF
ours confined to the continent Of
Europe. Mr.. Shiplacoff, who re-
turned recently from Palestine, was
telling the other hight of his adj
ventures among the Arabs.
He went to chief and discussed
with him outrages committed
against the zionists. The chief was
sympathetic, but little less en-
thusiastic.. He voiced few per-
functory regrets, and that being
done, he came to the subject which
was really uppermost in his mind.
Tell me-" he inquired of the man
from the United States, what is the
latest news about Jack Diamond
and AL Capone?'
Mr.. Diamonds fame rests largely
upon his recent goodwill trip to
Europe and the rather prominent
manner in which he was booted
from one border to another.
And, OF course, he landed largely
on the front pages of all journals
through his recent at-home in
hotel room.
Yes, Jack Diamond has had all
the breaks. But for circumstances
over which he had no control, he
never would have received his pres
ent prominence. He does not owe
his fame either to native worth OF
to hard work.
Possibly there is just a touch OF
civic pride in the manner in which
he has been built up by local news
paper men. New York hates to
yield the palm to any other city,
and there has been some little jeal-
ousy about the prominence of Al
Capone, who even has had a book
written about his life.
In desperation the news gatherers
of New York have endeavored to
regain supremacy for the home town
and with that in view they picked
up Diamond.
Done by ReWrite Men
IF he seems a romantic, an evil
i and an important figure, score
that result to the credit Of our local
rewrite men. They built their mon
ster up out Of poor material.
Diamond is clay from top to bot
tom. The notion that he functions

Political Progress Rests
Largely on the Overthrow
of Despotic Governments.

DRESIDENT HOOVER puts an
Il embargo on arms for the
Brazilian revolutionists.
Many people will applaud his
action as in lire with the peace
movement and as indicating this
governments intentions to dis
courage war.
Others will prefer to think it over
before committing themselves.
Let's not be too impatient with
the latter.
Not only the specific case ON which
President Hoover is acting, but the
general policy his action repre-
sents, merit careful consideration.
Peace as an ideal condition is
one thing. Peace at the price of
intrenched tyranny is quite another.
Sometimes revolution is both
necessary and deserving of support.
We Americans are lucky that
France felt that way about 1t in
1778.
The idea of backing up every
government we recognize has its
risks.
n
Give Credit to Revolution
POLITICAL progress rests largely
L on the overthrow of despotic
governments.
More often than not, the over
throw has been accomplished by
revolution.
AS a matter Of record, revolution
is the one form of violence which
can show much to its credit.
International strife, as made pos
sible by huge military establish
ments, represents a problem differ
ent from the uprisings Of people
who seek relief from oppression.
If the peace movement ignores
this difference, it may do more
harm than good.
Before we line up too irrevocably
against revolution, regardless of its
cause or circumstances, we should
remember that our own govern
ment grew out of it.

making the first formal protest ever
made in America against slave

Germantown today is picturesque
site, having a quaint architecture,
beautiful gardens, and large public
libraries. One section of the town
is occupied by manufacturing estab-
lishments and another is conspicuous
for its fine villas.
The first paper mill in America
was erected in Germantown in
1890, and here also. in 1743 the first
American edition of the Bible in
any language was printed.
Germantown is chiefly noted in
history, however, for the battle
fought there between the Americans.
under Washington and the British
and Hessians under Howe.
This was the battle in which the
Americans attacked their own men
by mistake in the fog, but which
they finally won. The Americans
lost 673 and the British SIS men.

bulk of the technical intelligentsia
therefore staked all their hope on the
foreign enemy.
Initiators of the counter revolu-
tionary Industrial Party recruited
members from circles of old tech
nical intdlectuals using all means:
promises of brides, threats, ETC. The
Central Committee headed this very
secret organization. In recent years
Ramsin played leading part in the
Central Committee. The foundation
of the Industrial Party was prompted
by the endeavor to gather together
all the counter-revolutionary forces
for the restoration of capitalism in
the Soviet Union, and establish a
strong centralized connection with
the white guard emigres and imper-
ialists, the deadly enemies of the
Workers Republic, particularly in
France. The program of the Indus
trial Party aimed to restore capital
ism, to restore the power of the
bougeoisie landlords, to return to the
former manufacturers the factories
increased in value by the hard labor
of the Proletariat, to return the land
to the landlords, and the rich
farmers.
Originally the tactics of the Indus
trial Party was based on the hop
that the capitalistic degeneration OF
the Soviet Power would be caused by
the New Economic Policy. With the
successful restoration thoir r. rs a
the degeneration of the Soviet Pow
er vanished, and the I-jussgial Per
ty set as their aim the violent over
throw of the Sovies Government
using the inner and outer forces, and
finally banking on military intocgen-
lion under French leadership. There
fore they established connection
with Whiteguard emigres organiza-
tons and French leading circles and
the General Staff. Connections were
established during the defendants
trips abroad and through the inter-
mediary French agents in Moscow.

Russia and Germany there has been
a big change.
Miners are making less wages and
wages are being cut with modern ma

Miners in other camps that have a
job there don't know what to do.
They know now if the mines run
every day that they will not get to
work one week out of a month.
Miners there have been living TN
a credit (bean orders) issued by the
local union which they will have to
pay back which will be no less a
checkoff than $40 per month.
The miners also will pay their nice
little union dues which runs from
about $40 up to SIS a month. House
rent is also cheap there, The ones
that live in company houses will have
to pay back rent. Pit clothes, soap,
