Four Months Work

TT took DR.. Black four months IN
4 free the skull from the mass of
traVertine in which it was imbedded.
The work was done with dental
drills. -''0A
This work was extremely difficult
and extremely important. Obvi-
ously false move might iniure
some important part of the skull.
Dr. Black concluded from his ex-
ANIMATION, after it had been freed
from the travertine, that it was the
skull OF young adult, perhaps 10
years Of age.
When the skull was first exam
lned, Professor Black was impressed
by the grace of its contours in COM
par1son with the uncouth outlines Of
Cne Java Ape Man." Professor Smith
says, and suggested the possibility
That it might be female. with the
reservation, of course, that the evil
oence at our disposal regarding this
hltherto unknown type of being was
altogether inadequate for any def
mite decision upon this matter.
Its grace, however, may be due
10 its primitiveness and the fact that
1t Is free from those secondary dis
tortions which gave the degenerate
Java Ape Man its bizarre char
acter."
When DR.. Black removed the skull
from its matrix of travertine. he
cleaned the rock from the ton of the
skull and then lifted off the bones
OF the skull. In this way he saved
tne travertine, which had been in
sloe the skull as an intact mass.
rms mass represents a mold Of
the brain case.
DR.. Black now is making a care
tul study of this mold and the world
OF science is waiting eagerly for his
published report upon it.

Not Fantastic Now

7 OUISIANA prohibits the plant
IL ing of cotton in 1882, providing
that states which produce rs per
cent of the crop take similar &C
ton. 1t looks as though they
might. Texas, Georgia, Alabama,
Mississippi and South Carolina all
are considering it.
One year ago such a scheme
would have been regarded as too
fantastic to be taken seriously, but
politicians and farmers are learn
ing thing or two from big bust
ness. Also, they are learning a
thing or two from the credit sys-
tenn whcih we have developed.

Imbedded in Rock
TINE circumstances under whic

DR. C. C. YOUNG, one of the
- scientists who aided in the
finding of the Peking Man, thinks
it extremely likely that the Peking
Man actually lived in the cave
where, a million years later, twen-
tieth century excavators found his
skull.
The skull, when found, was inn
oedded in thick mass of travertine.
1t is calcium carbonate rock which
Is formed by slow deposit.
In other words, during the mill
lion years that the skull of the Pc
king Man lay in the cave at Chou
hou Ten, geological processes
caused a layer of calcium carbon
ate rock to grow around it.
The skull was found at 4 D. m.
on Dec. 2, 1929. 1t was taken at
once, Embedded as it was in the ira
Vertlne, to Dr. Davidson Black at
the Peking Union Medical college.
Perhaps it would be well at this
point to say word about the part
which DR.. Black, an American anat-
omlSt, played in the drama of the
PeKlng Man. DR.. Black formerly
was an instructor in anatomy At
western Reserve university in Cleve-
land.
The finding of the Peking Man
was directly due to the enthusiasm
and convictions of DR.. Black. He
was so impressed by the announce
ment of the finding of certain man
like teeth in the western hills in
1926, that he persuaded the Rookie
teller Foundation to provide funds
for further work.
This led, in 1929, to the forma-
ton of the Cenozoic Research labo-
ratory of the geological survey of
China under the honorary director
ship of DR.. Black.

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE

generally, is likely to think that
vitamin D is a medicinal substance
limited to the use of human beings.
Few people realize that one of
the most extensive uses of vitamin
substances is in aiding the growth
of animals, in developing the egg
laying properties of chickens and
in stock and poultry raising gen.
orally.
In fact, this use is so important
that much of modern research on
the subject has been devoted pri-
marily to the needs of animals
rather than to those of man.

MareLv for Money!

IF states can stop the growing of
l. cotton, they can stop the grow
ing of anything-wheat, meat, or
poultry.
Maybe. it's unconstitutional, but
about all that means is money for
the lawyers.
Not only theh eighteenth amend
ment, but the methods of big
manufacturers, set favorable pre-
cedent.
When big manufacturer finds
he has overproduced what does he
do? Shuts down, until the market
rights itself. And what is that but
creating an arbitrary shortage?

Already numerous henhouses are
lighted with carbon arcs or with
other ultraviolet ray producing ap-
paratus. Some henhouses have
been equipped with special window
glass and skylights in order that
the mems may have the benefits Of
the ultraviolet rays from the sun.
Poultry and stock feeds have been
enriched with vitannin D con-
centrates.
Because of the sense of taste and
smell of the human being, which
makes him particularly fnicky re-
garding the drugs and medicines
that he may take, products have
been developed for human con-
sumption which successfully dis
guise the taste of the cod liver oil
and which eliminate the oil and
provide only the vitamin concen-
trate.
The animal is not so particular
and it is possible to prepare feeds
with less costly substances.
A recent report indicates that
fish oils, outside the cod liver oil,
are valuable source of vitamin
D and are likely to cost one-third
to one-fourth the price Of cod liver
oil. Stock and poultry may obtain
their vitamin D from yellow corn
and alfalfa
Such feeds can be supplemented,
according to a recent report from
the department Of agriculture, by
the use of pilchard oil produced
from California sardines, which is
as rich in vitanin D as cod liver
oil: from tuna oil, which also is
rich in this vitamin; from salmon
oil, which is one-half as rich in
vitamin D as cod liver oil, but
which is weak in vitamin A.
Here again modern chemistry and
industry combine to take advantage
of discoveries made primarily for
the control of human health.

Don't Make Mistake

THERE is a widespread feeling
4 that, while the principles on
which this government was found
ed do not need to be abandoned,
they do need to be restated and re-
applied.
There is widespread feeling that
our lawmaking and law-enforcing
mechanism has not kept pace with
general progress, and that we are
confronted with problems which it
is totally incapable of handling.
There is a widespread feeling that
our political and economic liberties
are being subordinated to financial
control and that an invisible SOW
ereignty gradually is being estab-
liShed.
Those who regard that feeling as
without force, or continuity, make a
serious mistake.

SCIENCE.
by DAVID l)IETZ-

American Andtomist Played
Important Part in the
Finding of the Picking
Man.
TINE circumstances under which
Il The Picking Man was found con-
stitute one of the things which
make this find" the most i'm
portant in the history of anthro-
pology to date.
Both the Java Ape-Man and the
Piltdown Man, the two fossil re-
mains Of ancient man upon which
previous discussions of the antiquity
of man were based, were found IN
gravel deposits.
This led to countless arguments,
which still are being waged, as to
the age of the fossils and as to the
possibility of animal fossils found
in the same deposits being the same
or different ages.
In the case of the Peking Man
the fossil skull found in the vest
ern hills behind Peking in Deem
Der, 1929, there is no such difficulty.
The human remains were left on
the floor of cave" says DR.. G..
Elliot Smith, world famous anthro-
pologist of the University of Lon
don, who went to China to inspect
the skull and the site where it was
found.
"A vast number of the animals
which roamed the region of the
Chou Kou Tien in these remote
times left their bones in the same
cave. AS all these fossils belong to
the same geological epoch, the lower
Pleistocene, there can be no doubt
of the age of the Peking Man"
The Pleistocene era was the
glacial age. DR.. Smith places the
age of the Picking Man at about
100000 years.

Taking Ruthless Policies

OBVIOUSLY, vast numbers of
" people are in mood to en-
bark on radical experiments. We
have seen martial law in the oil
fields of two states and the legisla-
ture of one state prohibit the plant
ing of cotton.
No matter what the technical ex-
cuse, it all has been for the purpose
OF price-boosting. We're going to
see more when congress assemblies.
and still more later on.
You can say the people are turn
ing Red, but you can't scare them
by it. They know they are not
turning Red, but merely borrowing
a page from the big business book
OF rules, merely adopting the greedy,
ruthless policies that have made
successful corporations.

No change.
Instead of talking about too much
wheat, why not let the people buy it
in small quantities for food? There
have been numerous recipes in the
paper how to prepare it for break

all this bunk they call vitamins.
Some of our old fathers and

never knew a thing about vitamins.

sincerely, that when the. people Of
this world realize that there is a
more supreme being than the

Editor Would suggest that
all national and state highways be
made toll roads.
This would give trucks, buses and
automobiles a means of contributing
their due share toward building and
the upkeep of good roads.
Building of toll gates would Give
thousands of men work and each
state would need hundreds of toll
gate keepers.
This plan would be a fair deal to

We Need Leadership

IF there weren't plenty to be done
Il in this country, and if we lacked
the means of doing it, we might
be justified in hunting for obscure
causes.
AS it is, we might just as well call

narroW-minded, arbitrary financial
leadership on the other.
