Oxygen Found
To Be Scarce
On Mars

PASADENA, Calf, June 9
G.N.SO.-If human life exists
upon Mars it exists upon prob
ably less than l per cent OF
the free oxygen which inhabi-
tants of the earth enjoy.
Observations which have
been under way since last No
vember through the 100-inch
telescope of Mt. Wilson OBJ
servatory and a powerful spec
tograph have led DR.. Walter
S. Adams, director of the OBJ
servatory, and DR.. Theodore
Dunham, jr., to this conclusion,
the latter disclosed today.
Their observations were not
undertaken with a view to de-
termining whether or not hu-
man life exists upon Mars but
purely from the scientific
standpoint of measuring, if
possible, the oxygen content of
the atmosphere of that planet.

Brotherhood Needed
 For Universal Peace
Senator Ionergan Urges Foreign Countries to Adopt
 Principle in Forum Address

and so forth but now European countries are becoming self-sups porting in these items which means that our exports have suf4 fered. If. therefore, we are going to be forced all we produce we must control production. We have been expert in production in the past but faulty in distribution, the speaker charged. Many, he added, have placed the blame for the de- pression on overproduction but, he maintained. there cannot be overproduction when one person is withuot enough to eat or wear.
 Concerning the short work week and minimum wages, he said they are both here to stay but the worker will have enough to buy what they produce. There is still necessary, though, Senator Loner- gan said, the taking of steps to set up a system of unemployment insurance. This, he feels, will guar- antee that man willing to work will not be out of work.
 Motor trucks and passenger cars have taken so much business away from railroads that only one per cent of the 1.200 roads in the country are able to care for their obligations at the present time, the speaker told the audience. In all, the fregiht and passenger business of the railroads has been dropped to motor trucks and passenger cars to the extent of 25 per cent in each case. He urged fair treatment for the railroads on the grounds that they pay taxes amounting to about $1,000,000 a daW and employ about a million persons. He addeds though, that few years ago rail- road executives vigorously Qppos- ed government interference while now they are seeking it.
 All public debts must be scaled down, Senator Lonergan said. Dis- cussing the fears of many that the country is running into coilectivism and destroying individualism he said that the United States was de- veloped on the basis of reward for initiative ande will continue to follow this system.
 This years internal revenue and customs receipts are larger than those of last year, he said. add. therefore, this is one indication that the country is, heading out fof the depression. All we need is con- fidence, said the senator, for we are now facing the sunrise. He urged everyone to feel conndens that we will have passed the half- way mark in the recovery program | by January. v

Lauding President Roosevelt for his progress to date in eliminating the depression and pointing to the complete change in attitude of big business toward the government as a result of the chief executives program of rehabilitation. United States Senator Augustine Loner- gan, in an address delivered last night at the Second church forum called upon the people of other countries to adopt a principle of brotherhood and thereby bring about world peace. Going back to the administration of the late President Woodrow Wilson he de- clared that if the world had adopt ed the war presidents teachings there would not be the present trouble about disarmament and neither would there be the present economic ills.
 The REC, the, federal public works plan, the short work week, minimum wages, railroad prob lens, the public debt and other subjects of national importance at the present time were also touched upon by Senator Lonergan. His talk was heard by a large number of persons and was greatly ap- preciated.
 With all his plans to aid the people and the country as a whole, said Senator Lonergan, the president is introducing the golden thread of humanitarianism into business life and is trying to make things easier for the working man while, at the same time, not being unfair to big. business. He added that up to now the country has been proceeding on principle Of mo business in government, no government in business" and any thing in the nature of paternalism was opposed. Now, though, prac- tically every business is appealing to the government for aid and 9 paternalistic attitude on the part of the federal government is being demanded. It has been made possi- ble. through the Liberalization Of the Reconstruction Finance cor poration, for industry to get loans from the REC when they fall to get them from the local banks, he explained. Senator Lonergan also praised the adoption of the plan which insures bank deposits pc, cause. he pointed out, this Will create greater confidence in the banking institutions.
 Discussing the federal public works plan, which he heartily en, dorsed, Senator Lonergan said that the plan, which will put Q huge army of men to work, is like pour ing water into a dry pump to get Il working. The governments actior in paying farmers to cut dowr their crops was also commended by the speaker, as this will insure better prices for the produce ant ] aid in the return to prosperity. 1 Up until a short time ago.
