ed the clean sweep of wet forces in
the eleven state elections held thus
far on prohibition repeal and eX-
pressed confidence that the drys can

before prohibition, he pointed out.
But of the 81 still to vote, 90 were

eighteenth amendment was adopted
The drys need to hold only thirteen
states to retain the eighteenth
amendment.
None Of the southern states has
voted yet and it is there that the

victory. The first test in the south
will come in Alabama on July l8.

Blasted in Editorial

Perhaps the best thing would be
for all civilized nations to combine
to burn all works on the Roentgen
rays. to execute all the discoveries,
and to corner all the tungstate in
the world and Whelm it in the mid
die of the ocean Let the fish con-
template each others bones if they
like. but not us"
The old editorial Just quoted is of
interest for a number of reasons. It
is more than a museum piece of
folly and nonsense. 1t helps to eX-
plain why there was, for so many
years, a great gap between the
world of science and the world of
laYmen.
1t explains why scientists for
many years were wary of talking
about their discoveries and why the
first pioneers of popular science had
such hard work
