Researches on Atomic

SWARTHMORE, Pa, December 90
Significant results in transmutation O!
the elements, closer application OF
physics to life and more efficient use OF
science in economics are foreseen for
1888 by w. F. 6. Swami, one of the
foremost American scientists. He is
director of the Bartol Research Founda-
ton of the Franklin Institute.
Il believe that researches on the
atomic nucleus will be one Of the main
points Of attack" he said, "and one
which is likely to lead to very significant
results in connection with atomic
energy and the transmutation Of the
elements.
II think we are reaching the time
when physics must take more account
of biological phenomena, and vice versa
In other words, We must be able to see
the universe as a complete whole In
which the phenomena Of life are bound
up in a consistent manner with those
OF physics and chemistry.
1T will doubtless always be desirable
to think practically In terms OF one sci
Of principles for vital phenomena and
another set for physical phenomena,
but we ought to realize clearly how the
bridge between the two may be con-
structed, if we should desire tc
construct it.
Il think the scientific method Is
going to be applied more efficiently tc
the control of economic matters. The
great difficulty here is that one is deal
ing with human beings who resen,
changes Of procedure. However. the
fact that one is dealing with human
beings must be taken into account
Much false doctrine will have to be
removed before successful start car
be made. Perhaps one may think mos;
impartially about the situation by at
tempting to work out a scheme for an
imaginary set of beings of which he
would not feel party; in other words
develop the matter as a purely abstract
scheme"
