State.

JOHNSON HEARS
. URGENT BID BY
ROOSEVELT

The White House waited hope
fully today for word from Sena-
tor Hiram johnson (R) of Cali
tornia that he would be men,
ber Of the American delegation to
next months world economic con-
ference in London.
President Roosevelt has exerted
all possible pressure on the west
coast Progressive to join the dele
CATION. Last night he had john
son in for an informal chat at
the Executive Mansion. 1t was
the second time he had taken
the matter up with the Senator.
JohnSon'S acceptance. however,
was considered highly problemati-
cal. He has made speeches on
the Senate floor condemning
colleagues who have Joined inter-
national delegations in the past.
Furthermore, he is bitter op-
ponent of further debt revision
and he has voted consistently
for high tariffs.
WadSwOrth Invited
Formal announcement of the
American delegations personnel
will be made Wednesday, it was
understood. Mr.. Roosevelt is
said to be eager to have two
Senators and two Representatives
one each from both political
partieS-included.
Senator Key Pittman Cd OF
Nevada already has been an
nounced as one delegate. Repre-
sentative Sam D. McReynolds
Cd Of Tennessee is expected to
be the other congressional repre-
sentative of the majority party.
James w. Wadsworth, former
Senator and now a member of
House from New York, is being
asked to join Johnson to speak
for the Republicans. Here again
acceptance was doubtful, al
though the White House was us
ing all possible persuasive
methods.
Young on List
Owen D. Young, New York
financier, who collaborated in
writing the German reparations
agreement. probably will be an
outstanding member of the
American group. He already has
been asked to serve.
Three names have been an
nounced-Secretary of State Cor
dell Hull, former Gov. James M.
Cox, of Ohio, and Senator Pitt
man.
Assistant Secretary of State
Raymond Moley, chief of the
Presidential brain trust" will go
to London after Congress ad-
journs, presumably replacing Sec
retary Hull, who is expected to
remain only for the first two
weeks or so.

A CATHEDRAL RESTORED

News from France that the magnifi-
cent Rheims Cathedral has been restored,
after the terrible damage it suffered dur
ing the war, will be most pleasing to every
lover of architectural beauty. Americans
will take especial pride in the fact that
this restoration has been made possible
largely through the generous donations of
John D. Rockefeller, Jr., of New York
Rheims Cathedral is one of the finest
specimens of architecture in the world, as
we'll as one of the most historic 1t stands
on the site of former church in which
Clovis, founder of the kingdom of the
Franks, was baptized in the year 400.
The present cathedral was begun in
1912, and completed about century Ia
ter, but numerous alterations have been
made from time to time. Here Joan of
Arc caused Charles VII to be crowned in
1929. and here the kings Of France were
crowned for several centuries
Many Of the elaborate sculptures
which adorn the cathedral were destroyed
or damaged by commandments during the
war, but fortunately photographs and
casts existed 10 enable artists TO copy the
lost masterpieces. So. once again Rheims
Cathedral stands forth in its pristine glory
and transeendent beauty

LIFE LARGE AND SMALL

Some interesting and reflections on the
size of living things are made by the noted
scientist, Julian s Huxley, in a magazine
article. Many of the facts which he re-
lates are not only interesting, but surpris-
ing.
When we speak of living things, in
the broad sense, we must include the vege-
table kingdom, SO the largest living things
are to be found among the big trees of Cal
ifornia. These, incidently, are also the
oldest, with an age of around 5000 years.
These trees, some weighing nearly
1000 tons, are massive indeed, when COM
pared with the largest animal, the whale,
whose weight seldom reaches more than
100 tons. Yet large elephant could
maneuver inside whales skin.
Most wonderful is what we find
among the smaller orders of life We can
see flea, though with difficulty catch
him, yet $4,000 would scarcely weigh an
ounce.
Some of the insects which are hardly
visible to the naked eye, are fitted out with
compound eyes, a nice nervous system
three pairs of jaws and three pairs of legs,
veined wings and striped muscles Tiny
birds weighing only 10 grams, or about as
much as 10 large ants, fly thousands of
miles during their migrations And ants,
by the way, are the strongest living things
in proportion to their size.
Man is about halfway in the scale
between large and small mammals, and
when grown he contains about hundred
million cells. He requires all his brain
to cope as well as his strength with the
great animals on one side and the insects
on the other. And then there are the mi
crobes to worry about.

CHIEF HUMAN DESIRES

According to an advertising authority,
people are most easily sold something they
strongly desire, or for which such desire
of the average person, is suggested, includ-
ing the following:
To make money; to escape physical
pain; to- be comfortable; to avoid effort !;
to receive praise; to sidestep trouble; to
attract the opposite sex; to be popular; to
have enjoyment; to be in style; to save
time--and some other desires closely allied
to these.
The above list consists principally of
desires for things not absolutely essential
to existence, as are food and clothing.
When one stops to think of it, most mod
ern desires are for conveniences and lux
uries hardly dreamed Of century ago
In fact if people were suddenly to be-
come satisfied with the mere necessities
of life majority of all industrial and bust
ness enterprises would have to go out of
business. The creation of new desires
which makes for higher standard of living
has been due largely to the power of adj
vertising.
New devices and products which add
to human satisfaction, comfort and enjoy
ment would make slow Roadway without
advertising to create desire for them on
the part of the public

|M0LL|S0NS To
TRY It AGAIN

LONDON, June 8. sU.Pj-Wreck-
ed on the attempted take-off of
their transatlantic flight, the fly
ing Mollisons ordered immediate
repairs on their plane today and
planned fresh start as soon as
possible.
James Mollison and his wife, the
former Amy johnson. escaped in
jury when their heavily laden
plane, the Seafarer, struck a bump
on the runway and nosed over, bad
ly damaged. early today.
Mrs. Mollison, holder of many
distance records and one of the
foremost women flyers, seemed
stunned by the dramatic ending of
the adventure. Her husband, James,
who successfully negotiated the
dangerous east-west passage over
the Atlantic alone last year, shrug-
ged philosophically and inspected
the damage.
No accurate estimate could be
given of the time necessary for re-
pairs. The Mollisons had hoped to
fly westward to New York, rest
there not more than "a hours, then
fly east to Aleppo, Arabia, in an
attempt to set straight line dis
tance record, and as a final gesture
return to Croydon to complete the
circuit.
