Contra dieting statements on this subject have been forthcoming from differ cnt sources. Most authorities con tend that more than 90 per cent Of our children are subject to tooth decay. However, mp to the present no definite data has been presented to prove this. By means of this national survey, we shall have valuable information concerning the prevalence of dental disease under varying conditions.

Between the Stars.
New York Times.D

New YORK IlmeS)
Ten thousand million stars in own small
galaxy alone and incalculable millions more in
other galaxies that only the eye of a camera can
seel Yet in accordance with what are now the
orthodox teachings of astronomy, DR.. Anderson OF
Mount Wilson assures that space is relatively
empty The best vacuum that can be produced in
terrestrial laboratory is thick with molecules COM
pared with the vast void. A puff of smoke expanded
thousand cubic miles is denser than all the stellar
matter in space.
Yet that word empty is out of place in any
modern description of the universe. Thirty years
ago Dr. Hartmann of the Potsdam Observatory found
that there are gossamer wells of calcium and sodium
between the stars. The fine mathematical magna-
ton of Eddngton drew startling conclusions from
the discovery Fully as massive as all the stars
combined these mere wraiths of calcium and
sodium. Whence do they come? Are they the
residue of the great act of creation? Eddngton has
suggested much.
AS light speeds for centuries it strikes a
calcium or a sodium atom and then and strips
it of electron two. Nor does it escape I'M
scathed With some hues lost ia the encounter it
arrives on earth partial ruin. Dark gaps in the
spectrum tell the story. 1t by their aid that
the cosmic cloud discovered at all. The light
wrecked atoms wander around looking for their lost
fragments. Eddington presents an almost pathetic
mathematical picture of their plight In a quest
that takes year on the average and involves a
journey of nearly 100 million miles damaged atom
lat last meets a bit of wreckage and heals itself,
only to be eventually robbed by another light bullet.
SO the struggle between matter and radiation goes
ION and
Light cannot travel infinite paths in a
finite universe. 1t is prisoner. What becomes
Iof it? Why the heavens not in a perpetual
blaze? Perhaps in this interaction of the cosmic
lcoud and light, in this never-endng destruction of
light by matter and matter by light, in this quest of
battered atoms for missing parts, the answer may
yet be found Einstein has told in simple
equation, now useful tool of the physicist that
mass can be changed into energy and energy into
mass All the light hurled forth by the spendthrift
stars may be the stuff out of which the universe is
rebuilding itself If SO, creation is not single act,
like the starting of a clock by the tapping of a
pendulum, but continuous process in which worlds
die only to be reborn.

Housing Conditions.
DAILY Journal of Commerce, Seattle

DAILY Journal of Commerce, Seatte)
The survey of housing conditions made by PWA
workers in larger cities of the country last winter
does not altogether support the boast of remarkably
high living conditions in all parts of the county.
Certainly Seattle housing conditions amenable
to improvements in many respects
Comparing three cities at random, Indianapolis,
Portland and Seattle several interesting facts are
revealed
Seattle is the largest of the three cities There
are 1901 structures in this city, and SO per cent
need repairs. The 10207l structures house 1876 500
dwelling units Ninety-two per cent of the Seattle
structures are of frame construction. Present va
cancies here COZ per cent? higher than in
Portland 1913 per cent?. Under the heading rental
values it is shown that Seattle rentals are higher
than in either of the two other cities-$23O1 in
Seattle 1890 in Portland and $2l is in Indianapolis
Our homes are more crowded than those of Port
land, and fewer have central heating plants than
in the other two cities
Forty per cent of the homes in Seattle still use
coal wood ranges for cooking Both Portland and
Indianapolis electricity and gas for cooking more
generally than do Seattle householders. Ten per
cent of Seattle homes have no toilets and Is per
cent have no tubs nor showers for bathing Twenty
two per cent have mechanical refrigeration while
only 16 per cent of the homes in indianapolis have
refrigeration.
The reports show many other points of interest
After studying the figures is impressed with
the fact that, while We quick to explain to
visitors that Seattle has sums there is ample
opportunity to raise the general standard of housing
conditions locally.
The fact that So per cent of Seattle structures
now require repairs tells the story briefly The
fact that the plumbing in even larger percentage
Is in need of modernization, and the roofs of about
half our homes need repairs, that thousands Of
residences need painting would seem to indicate that
the national housing act may prove exceptionally
opportune and that home repair and modernization
work here will start the wheels moving again in
the building industry-an industry always among
the first to feel business depression and always
the first to feel the effects of improved business
condition.

WOULD DIVORCE ALASKA FROM THE
NATION.

Despite the fact that they are attacking the
New Deal and President Roosevelts recovery pro-
gram, characterized by Frank H. Foster "riotous
expenditure and rottenness" local Republican can
didates endeavoring to persuade Alaska voters
that the local campaign ought to be entirely divorced
from the national one In the G.. o. P. meeting
here last night each of the speakers tried stress
that viewpoint. which is. of course too silly to
need disputation.
For instance, in his Introductory remarks Judge
LeFevre asserted the campaign lis vast one of
two great issues: party (the Democrats would
eradicate everything that has gone before, all that
is precious; and the other (the Republicans would
revert to the old system the old customs And in
the next breath he declared the national issues
do not concern Alaska except to an infinitesimal
degree.
There might be logic in that conception of the
local campaign If the candidates themselves and
their party to which each of them gave outspoken
allegiance had not made the New Deal the one issue
of the current campaign. Henry P. Fletcher, the
National Chairman, has publicly challenged the

Roosevelt Administration and has appealed to the
voters of the country to vote the New Deal
policies Mr.. Foster, at least, frank enough to
recognize that, although he. too, would make an
exception of Aaskans. Their attitude is unique to
say the least In effect they say: Let all the rest
of the United States vote for against the New
Deal but keep it out of the Alaska campaign.
That naturally, isn't a logical development NO
matter what the local G. o. P. candidates have to
say about it, the rest of the country is going to
regard the outcome of the Alaska election as an
expression of the sentiment of Alaskans on the New
Deal Mr. Mccain realizes that very clearly for
he poesses to approve of certain unspecfed policies
of the President, whom he lauds courageous
leader yet he too joins in the chorus of dsapproval
with unsupported charges against certain specific
New Deal activities. His attitude seems to be that
he is against the New Deal a Republican, but
for it if it will win votes for him and get him
elected to the House of Representatives
