SCIENCE
Research Aids Farmers
BY DAVID DIETZ

CCIENTIFIC research is the
~ foundation stone upon which
all activities of the United States
Department of Agriculture rest.
So says Arthur M. Hyde, secretary
of agriculture in President Hoov-
ers cabinet.
Research is not merely the big
gest job the department has," he
says. 1T is the foundation of all
its other jobs. Research done in
this department, coupled with new
knowledge from institutions in all
parts of the world, figures in
everything the department under
takes"
Hyde divides the work of the
department into six classes, as fol-
lows: Cd Research, CD extension
and information, CD eradication
or control Of plant or animal dis
eases and pests; "a service ac-
Invites, such as weather and crop
reporting; 50 administration of
regulatory laws, Co road conStruc-
ton.
This classification, though con-
venient for certain purposes, i'm
plies that research is only one
among many important func-
lions" he says. Actually, the re-
search is primary. 1t is the key
note Of the structure.
mo sharp line can be drawn,
for example, between research and
extension. Research results have
to be popularity presented before
they can be usefully extended.
1--WE classify weather and crop
reporting as service activities, yet
they are very largely research

VXTHEN I was tiny tot I be-
VNlonged to gang. The buses
on Fifth avenue were drawn by
horses, and opera was sung in
what was then and still is the
Metropolitan Opera House.
We lived way uptown at 40
West Eighty-seventh street, which
was the center Of a row of brown
stone houses.
The gang to which I belonged
included everybody on the block,
except the boys who lived in the
corner houses. Those we're flats,
and we were of the brown stone
bourgeOise.
Within the gang itself there was
a smaller key organization called
the Silent Nine. We got that up
to leave out Harold, whom nobody
liked, even though he didn't live
in a flat.

The Start IN 1889

CONGRESS showed its first in

in 1889 when it made an approp-
ration of $1,000! This was for
collecting and distributing seeds,
prosecuting agricultural investiga-
tons, and procuring agricultural
statistics"

Life among Aliens

TINE corner house boys had to
Il join the Columbus avenue
gang or the Amsterdam avenue
gang, for on those thoroughfare
all the buildings were flats. We
met these rival groups only in
combat, and even then unwillingly
and as infrequently as possible,
since Amsterdam and Columbus
avenues could whale the tar out
of us.
Fortunately they never COM
bined. The hatred of Columbus
for Amsterdam was just as keen
as their mutual dislike of Eighty
seventh street. In the eyes of the
avenues We we're Sissies, and per-
haps there was something in what
they said, for in those days I had
long golden curls and went about
diffidently in a suit made of blue
velvet.
If anybody had suggested to me
then that there was no reason
why these contiguous kingdoms
should not dwell in amity I would
have rejected any such idea with
horror and amazement. Even at
the expense of constant warfare
and defeat, I preferred punch
in the nose to diShonor. 1t was
quite impossible to think of meet
ing those other boys. They didn't
live IN OII1. block
And when anybody got nickle he
went instinctively to Mr.. SchultzS
candy store, which was just this
side of Columbus. 1t was not
necessary for anybody to tell us
to Buy West Eighty-seventh
street" That was instructive.
AS the years progressed we grew
in maturity, and Monte Jacobs
was admitted to the Silent Nine,
even though he came from around
the corner. He had a catchers
mitt and a chest protector.
The social structure did not
crumble when this audacious step
was taken. We merely changed
the name of the club to the Silent
Ten, and I, who had been right
fielder, became first substitute up
on our baseball nine.

SLOWING DOWN

Another of the sweet uses of adversely will be
found in the lowered auto fatality rates of 1882.
Preliminary estimates indicate that auto acct
dents killed only between 10000 and $1,000 Amer
leans last year This is drop of II per cent from
the all-high of $4,000 victims in 1881.
Part of this drop must be charged against the
falling off in use of automobiles But not ALL for
the use of autos gagged by gasoline consumption
declined only per cent.

IN the Bethsheba
Baptist Chuch, Sunday, Aug 10Th,
Congressman Fiorcllo II. I.aGuari-
Ia. in a stirring and challenging adj
dress. condemned the Pullman
Company as one on the worst cnl-
ployers Of labor in all America.
There has been no moro motor
ious and indcfensiblc attack upon
the rights OF labor in the history
of Of America than when the Pull
man Company caused the govern
mcnt To use the armed forces OF
the country TO pui down a strike
of workers i'm the Pullman shops
in 1894. Following that time the
company. IN utter disregard of Fed
eral legislation, has persistently
refused to recognize the rights OF
its Pullman porttfs and maids to
organize n union of their own.
Said La Guardia, under the
National Recovery Act. an end can
be put to the exploitation OF lab
or. cut-throat competition and de-
structive business practices. Legit-
innate business in self-defensc Will

to prevent not only exploitation OF
their own people, but to prevent
unfair competition with employers
who are earnestly living up to re-
ouirements of their respective
codes and carrying out the intent

Because of the fight the Pull
man porters have made and the the
recent Federal Legislation In the
interest of National Recovery, the
pioneer work and struggle of the
porters and maids have been
passed. just as the Workers in In
