TOBACCO IS MULE
IN PLANT KINGDOM
Science Association Told of
Origin From Divergent
Weeds.
" the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
PASADENA, Calf, June 15.-Ltke
the mule tobacco was born . hybrid,
neither Of its parents, which were Of
different species.
The story Of the evolution of the
tobacco plant was told here today in O
symposium on genetic problems mark
ing the opening of the Summer session
Of the American Association for Ad-
vancement Of Science.
Roy Elwood ClauSen of the Univer-
sity Of California told the story. It Is
one Of the strange things that the
study Of chromosomes reveals.
Two weeds got together and out OF
the union came the broad-leafed plant
which today figures in more advertis-
ing than any other member Of the plant
kingdom.
Weeds Of Huge Size.
Once there was q quiet family of
weeds, almost treelike. called the Rusbi
family. It was characterized by IL
chromosomes, inflniteSimal objects gov
erning sex or other characteristics, and
never had any commercial use. Then
there was another similarly useless and
prolific family of weeds of broad leaves
and pink flowers, also Of the l2-chro-
ulOSOulc type, ChAlcO LA1e SyANCoGAh' EoO
says DR.. C1Ausen.
BY one Of the quirks Of nature these
two types interbred and out Of them
was born Nicotiana tabacum, and to-
bacco came into the world with its
broad leaf and pink flower. It Is hy-
brid with "a chromosomes, and one of
the rather unusual species Of hybrids
that reproduce itself, like the logan
berry, the yellow primrose and the
ornamental chestnut. No evidence OF
the toxic nicotine or any toxicity Is
found In either parent.
Chromosomes Minute.
Chromosomes are minute bodies bear
ing the units Of heredity. Science finds
in them the newest methods of study
of the mystery Of lie, control Of species
and determination Of sex.
Prof Theodore DobzhanSky Of PaSa-
dena told of new methods of studying
these chromosomes by means of X-rays
He told how vinegar fly eggs are treated
with X-ray and the chromosomes
scrambled, and how peculiar results
are thus obtained.
This work is one Of the Fundamentally
Of genetics, for in determining laws
affecting chromosomes, information Is
cleaned that applies to any living or
ganism, including man.

IN the present order Of things. he asked: I:
WAS there ever . wider gulf between
the routine exercises Of the school
where the common man IS trained and
the vast and infinitely bafIiing INTEL
lectual problems that he viii be called
upon to solve when he comes to exer-
else his soyereignty2"
He said since the war the masses had
taken more and more direct voice in
government, and called upon the leaders
to develop thinkers with inaginations.

Family-Raising Race.

There is q big 10-year contest on in
Canada and the winner will be the
Toronto mother who has the greatest
number of children between 1925 and
1896.
In 1925 died Charles Millar, an
eccentric barriSter. He left $500, 900 to
the mother having the greatest number
Of children within 10 years.
There are some sturdy entrants for
the contest The favorite until recently
was Mrs. Bagnato, who, at the age of
81, gave birth to her twentieth child
born in Canada. The betting now
though is inclined in favor of Mrs.
Brown, ~ years Of age. In the last %
years she has had, 26 children.
