Flester's decision might not
bring the dissolution of the
Georgetown A. c., but some of
the stars of the latter team will
unquestionably follow Flester.
Perhaps Pete Haley or Warren
Hilleary may be prevailed upon
to again handle the Georgetown
A. c. interests.
In fact, the team that plays
under the Pullman banner on
weekdays in the Terminal r..

NEW QUESTION
 ON PROHIBITION
 ISPRAISED NOW
Constitutionality of Eigh- teenth Amendment
 in New Angle

NEW YORK, March 13---A new question on the constitutionality of the Eighteenth Amendment not heretofore passed on by the Su- preme Court of the United States has been raised by a committee of the New York County Lawyers As- sociation
 The committee has recommend ed presentation to the Supreme Court the question that ratification of the amendment was by State Legislatures and not by the peo- pie.
 The report of the Committee said this violated the Tenth Amend ment of the Constitution and was therefore not legal.
 The report will be voted upon at the next general meeting of the Association which will be in April or May.

FRENCH CAR MAKERS
 SEEKING NEW UNITY

Gradually there have come changes. Three French manufac- turers, Citroen, Renault and Peu- geot, are credited with three-fourths of the output. Four others make up a seventh. Sixty other manu- lecturers therefore are relatively unimportant in volume of output, although some are valuable in maintaining the prestige of the French car.
 With this as start, it is argued that French makers have only to go further in concentrating factor ies, cutting overhead and in stan- dardizing materials and methods.
 Costs, it is admitted by automo- bile engineers, could be reduced greatly by general adoption of few sizes of bolts and threads, formu- las of steel and the concentration of accessory and parts manufac- ture in a few factories.

AIDS
 IMMUNITY TO DISEASE

DETROIT, March 13. = An eiec- trical treatment which gives plants and animals protection from disease is described to the American Asso- ciation for the Advancemnt of Sci ence by Dr. R. A. Muttkowski, Pro- lessor of Biology at Detroit Univer- Isity.
 Living things are exposed to magnetism created by electric cur rents. The important point in the Detroit experiments, Dr. Muttkow- ski reports, is interruption of this magnetic influence during part of each second, so living cells get a rest.
 Other scientists have shown that uninterrupted exposure of simple forms of life to similar electrical effects, seems to make them live more rapidly, yet their death comes more quickly
 To avoid death, Dr. Muttkowski gives this, rest period. With para mecia, single-cell animals, those that lived in the magnetic field for time were able to survive experi- ence that killed ordinary para mecia. Under the treatment, pea and bean seeds also developed pow CTS of resistance to molds that de- Istroy untreated seed.

 A highly specialized brain under unfavorable conditions or excesses, he declares my burn out before it's course should have ended.
 Environment has an important role in the unfolding of heredity. according to Dr. Hrdlicka. A heal thy brain in healthy body, he says, could make a name for it's possessor in as many vacations as there were suitable environments.
 On the other hand, he points out, if it were possible to guide 10 per- sons with much the same heredi- tary endowment, they could be de- veloped along as many different lines by placing them in materially different environments.

 T just take my lead off the bag make up my mind when to start bow my head and keep on tear ing" says Fred. Whenever the en- emy is prepared for me to steal, that is the time I try to do it. Us- ually it is the safest time, for every body is on edge and sometimes they become nervous"

CHILD'S TALENT IS NOT TRUE INDEX
 OF FUTURE ABILITY SCIENTIST SAYS

WASHINGTON, D. C., March 13. pr. Ales Hrdlicka, Smithsonian anthropologist, believes that ap- parent brilliance or apparent dull ness in a child is not necessarily an accurate index of later develop ment.
 It is only an indication, he says.
 Heredity, Dr. Hrdlicka explains, is an unfolding process extending from birth to death, and not some thing that is manifested completely at any stage in an individuals life. It is an endowment, he says, which germinates as the individuals life progresses, bringing into play forces which a long line of ancestors have passed down.
 While there is life, Dr. Hrdlicka holds, there always is hope for de- velopment of the human brain if it is not diseased or defective. Thus a youth of indifferent talents may develop solidly and even out standingly later.
 Dr. Hrdlicka holds that no person can fully gauge the heredity of any normal child, because he knows not even his heredity combina- tions, though he may be an eX- pert on the brain" No does any human being know the limits of his intellectual capacity under all con- ditions.
 Brain work coupled with excep- tional environment sometimes calls into action latent hereditary poten-

 Instead of the walls supporting the floors, as in most modern con- struction, the floors would support the walls. The floors are to be held up by great concrete and steel pylons so that the skeleton of the building will resemble a tree, the pylons representing the trunk and the floors the limbs.
 Experiments are now being made by Charles Morgan, Mir Wright s associate, on methods of insulating the glass walls so as to prevent undue dissipation of heat. The plan

PARIS, March 13.-American cars aren't exactly welcomed in France by French car makers. Their real concern, however, is not compel- tion here, but in other countries.
 France formerly exported more than half her cars. Last year ex- ports were only two-fifths, and this year. the exports are running only one-tenth, says Charles Faroux, a recognized automobile authority.
 Since American cars sell well here at double their American fac- tory prices, they have an advantage in many places, though not in France and her colonies
 For years some industrial lead- CTS have urged standardization, CO., operation by makers and removal of the 12 per cent de luxe tax as measures essential to the French automobile industry's existence.

FINANCES AND MARKETS WILL
 BE AVAILABLE
Two Big Assets Available to Paper Companies,
 Declares Heintzleman

Lack of finances -or construction nor want of a market for the pro- duct will noi. be problems to be met in the esta ablishment of pulp anc paper mills projected at Juneau and KetchD,an by California inter ests, the Chamber of Commerce was told today by B. F. Heintzle- man, Asst. District Forester, U. s Forest Service, who returned thi: week from completing negotiations with those interests.
 The engineering work on bott projects has been finished. All that is left to do is for the companies to make applications for fina waterpower licenses and sign timber sale contracts.
 Is Assured of This
 And I was assured by both com panies that they would proceed at once to take this step" MT. Heint- zleman said. Not later than June Is, and probably during the month of May, 1t is expected the con- panies will take the final steps to take up the waterpower projects and consummate the purchase ot timber for their operations.
 "The status of both projects was covered very well by The Empire in it's issue yesterday and there is very little to be added to that account" Mir Heintzleman added After the timber sale contracts are signed and the final waterpower licenses received, which should be sometime between the middle oi July and the middle of August, the Government will grant the compan- ies some additional time in which to begin construction of plants.
 It is felt that the final permits will be issued too late for any con- struction gram to be fully launched this year, but it should be under full swing next year.
 Net Plant Successful
 The manufacture of wire netting for fish traps is under full swing at Ketchikan and the plant has all of the orders it can take care of according to Henry Roden, Presi- dent of the operating company. He returned early this week from a trip to Seattle, Ketchikan and other points.
 The plant is working at full ca pacity with two full shifts. German competition Is its only serious wor- ". To meet this competition manufacturers of raw materials used by the plant recently made substantial reductions which were of considerable help, MT. Roder said.
 He praised the salmon canners for their policy of support to the enterprise. T have felt for years that the cannerymen would be glad to patronize Alaska industry. They have consistently purchased boxes and other supplies from Alaska sawmills. Since the establishment of our enterprise we have not ap- preached single canneryman for business who did not give us ar order. We are promised an even larger portion of the trade for next season. This shows that the can ners are willing to buy from Alas kan industries" he declared.
