BULL DECLARED COLOR BLIND,
UNAFFECTED BY RED OBJECTS
Museum of Science and Industry to Open
Exhibit Revealing Nature and Pro-
duction of Various Hues.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, January 1.-THE bull
would be just as mad If the toreadoI
waved a black flag. He's color blind
The general belief that bulls see red
will go to pot along with many other
popular color concepts when the Mu-
scum of Science and Industry opens on
Monday an exhibit in which is displayed
virtually all that is known about the
science of hues.
Black Considered Color.
Sponsored by a group of technic.ans
artists, educators, psychologists and
scientists, the exhibit is designed to re-
veal the nature of color and its pro-
duction, color as the eye sees it and as
the eye does not see it, color measure
ment, color materials and color pos
Sibilities.
Visitors may learn whether or not
they are color blind. They may learn
that color has three dimensions its
hue, which distinguishes it from other
colors; its value or variations, and its
chroma, which is its intensity or
strength.
Black Is a color. Many animals are
color blind and most of the animals
have a much narrower color range than
have humans.
Colors Depend on Surroundings.
Colors depend upon their surround
ings. They are darker next to lighter
object and lighter next to a darker.
Red rays are longest, violet short

K. OF c. LAUNCHES
RELIEF PROGRAM
Project viii Extend Through
U. S., Its Possessions
and Canada.
BY the Associated Press.

%NSSSSANeNA
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, January II.
An international program of unem-
ployment relief was launched here to-
day by the supreme board of directors
of the knights of Columbus, to act
in cooperation with national, State and
community agencies.
The project, which will extend
through the United States, its posses
sions and Canada, will include the "crea-
ton of work, where possible and calls
for every council of the knights of
Columbus to act as free employment
agency to locate jobs for the unem-
ployed."
Many councils already have started
this work, William j. Mckinley, SUI
preme secretary. announced.
A picture of the efforts of the knights
of Columbus to assist stricken residents
of the drought area was laid before
the meeting today by Mr.. MCKINLEY. He
told of the expenditure of several thou
sand dollars of the orders funds for
food in parts of Kentucky and other
Southern States. The directors Staunch-
ly endorsed the $10,000,000 Red Cross
campaign.
French Lick Springs, Ind, was
awarded the supreme convention of the
order and the dates were set for Au-
gust 1921, inclusive.
Omission of the April insurance as
seSsment against members of the order
was announced today. An increase of
SIS, 100000 in policies written in the
year made the step possible.
Active pursuance of the boys welfare
work, launched several years ago under
the leadership of Martin H. Carmody,
supreme knight, also was voted.

est. Violet rays will give color to
minerals in earth and rocks, otherwise
unseen. Colored lights and colored
pigments do not mix in the same way.
Blue and yellow pigments make green,
but blue and yellow lights produce
gray.
Any three colors may be called "pri-
mary, and complementary colors are
those which neutraliZe each other to
make gray. One may find the compile
ment of color by staring at the color
for a dozen or more seconds, then turn
ing his eyes to white surface.
Color Blindness Hereditary.
Color blindness is hereditary and car
ried through the female line, but it af-
hictS about 4 per cent of the males
and only about GA per cent of the fe-
males.
When it comes to what is color?" the
layman will have to take whatever of
three theories he finds the most plauSi-
BILE. The physicist will tell him it Is
light, the chemist will contend it is
due to the manner in which molecules
are built up and the psychologist will
say color is not in the object but in the
eye.
Among paradoxes demonstrated is the
fact that the apparently brightly-color-
ed tropical bird has no color pigment.
The hues seen by the eye are due to
the birds feather coating and the way
it is struck by light rays
