The Human Side of the News
Women Scientists-Age Of Miracles at Hand
By EdWi1e c.. Hill

within the coming century?
Here are some startling predic-
tions, lately made by men of
standing, so the Readers Digest
tells us. They predict a house
made Of plates of opaque or
transparent glass clipped to
light steel frames. Inside the
house, fireproof and Soundproof
partitions may be moved around
at will, making it possible to
adjust the size and number Of
rooms
The air indoors will be
fresher than without-waShed,
humidified and kept at q con-
slant temperature. Bedclothes
will be unnecessary. Beds and
floors will be pneumatic, the
closets full of revolving shelves.
Cookery will be done by electric
vacuum units, doors will open
at the wave Of a hand before
a photo-electric cell. Dishwash-
ing and laundry will be done
automatically.
The future house will have
an entertainment room, where
all the current events of the
world will be usually on tap;
and it's walls will be lined with
talking books s'-that is, sound
recordings on film, which will
teach us languages, tell stories,
dramatize plays.
Rich Future
Including upkeep, manage
ment and depreciation, the rent
in such buildings would be no
more than 81 per room, per
month. Airplanes will speed
800 miles an hour on inter-
city routes; a thousand miles
an hour on transoceanic routes.
What will happen to the auto
mobile? According to Charles
F. lettering, of General Motors,
the next decade will produce
cars weighing less than 1000
pounds, travelling safely at 100
to $50 miles an hour, and cover
ing 80 miles on a gallon Of gas.
The roads over which the
cars Of the future will be driven,
will be self-illuminating. Along
this golden roadway, fences,
sign-postS and the cars them
selves, will gleam under coats
Of luminous, radium-treated
paint, making headlights un-
necessary. Even the abolition
of epidemic disease in another
100 years is predicted, as is dis
covery of cures for cancer and
tuberculosis. We have passed
through the stone age, the iron
age, and the machine age. We
come now, by the grace Of the
human mind, to the age Of
miracles.

Which Life had seemed to give,

Lost within a storm.

Dogs, babies,
Ploughing fields;
A house I built;
The smell Of burning leaves
On autumn nights;
That dusk when God
Seemed walking with His stars.
OF all the struggling years,
These were the only things
That lasted-real.
The rest were faces
Seen within a dream,
The rest were voices
Lost within a storm.
And So
I have found happiness
In little things.

House Tariff Vote Violates
Philippine independence Act
By James T. Williams, Jr.

that has misled many conscien-
tiouS members Of Congress into
believing that delivering a death
blow to the coconut industry
Of the Philippines will be bene-
ficial to the American farmer.
Free trade between the United
States and the Philippines since
1918 has been Of advantage
both to the islands and to the
mainland. The bulk Of the ex-
ternal trade Of the islands is
with the United States. Over
81 per cent Of Philippine ex-
ports are shipped to this coun.
try, and So per cent of the ex-
ternal purchases Of the islands
are made in the United States.
President Protests
Here are some facts about
American trade with the Philip
pines, which Secretary Dern
gave to the House before it
voted the iniquitouS tariff
against which President Roose-
velt so justly protests:
"The Philippine Islands stand
first as purchasers of United
States dairy products.... -. Our
dairy industry should not over-
look this fact when it advo-
Gates an excise tax which pre-
sun1Gbly wiH GdUersely affect
our export market for dairy
products.
"The Philippines also stand
first in the purchase of United
States cotton textiles. Other
exports to the Philippines by
which Americans profit are to-
bacco products, paper, rubber,
iron and steel, electrical and
sugar mill machinery, autono-
bilcs, chemicals, drugs, and
books. A complete list of the
articles imported into the
Philippine Islands from the
United States WOuld embrace
almost the entire list of Grti-
cles raised and produced in this
country.
"AH of these goods are Gd-
nritted to the Philippine Islands
free Of duty while imports from
other countries are forced to
pay. an Average Of Gpproxi.
n1Gtely 20 per cent dd UdlOrenr."
Secretary Dern put this ques-
ton to the Congress:
"HGUe we the moral right to
try to build up one group of
our producers by tearing dOwn
another group which also lives
under the American Flags?
The answer to this question,
as Congress is well aware, is
mo" And President Roosevelt
will have the support Of the
American people in his protest
against the bad faith toward
the Philippine people which the
wicked tariff voted by the
House would involve.

The world of medicine is all
ears when Joseph Colt Blood
good rises to speak. For DR..
Bloodgood, professor of surgical
pathology at John Hopkins, is
known internationally as an au-
thority on cancer, the result of
forty prominent years in his
chosen field. And now, speak
ing in Ottawa, DR.. Bloodgood
says:
1--WE need in all the civilized
countries a larger number Of
women fundamentally trained in
the medical science, not only as
practitioners of medicine, in the
specialties and general practices,
but in laboratory positions, re-
search work and in public
health. My experience teaches
me that women are taking to
preventive medicine quicker
than men,"
This eminent gentleman's re-
marks call to mind two women
who have reached the heights in
the world which he would open
wide for their sisters, and these
two are Nine. Marie Curie, of
Paris, and Miss Maude Slye, Of
Chicago. Nine. Curie'S story has
been well told-how she, Marie
Sklodowska, born the daughter
of a doctor of Warsaw, in 1867.
had to leave the country be-
cause Of revolutionary activities
how she made her way to
Paris, took a degree in science
and married DR.. Pierre Curie-
how together, in 1898, they dis
covered radium, and how, after
Pierre was killed by a horse
drawn truck in 1905, she took
his place as professor of chem
istry in the university and won
the Nobel Prize, as well as hon.
ors from all peoples.

DR.. Maude Slye, born in Min
neapolis in 1879, has devoted
the last quarter Of a century to
a study of and a search after
those known, unknown and in
finitesimal particles which hold
the secrets of life. death and
heredity.
She may be little known to
the public, but medicine and
science know her for her in
valuable work, and accord her
the highest professional stand
ing. AS DR.. Bloodgood says, he
speaks from experience in this
testimony to women in science
and medicine-the experience
of almost half a century, and
I from it he draws another pithy
observation which I quote:

President Roosevelt, Secretary
Dern and Governor General
Murphy voice the true senti-
mentS Of the American people
in protesting against the recent
action Of the House in voting a
prohibitive tariff upon the i'm
portation from the Philippine
Islands to continental United
States of copra and coconut oil.
The President, the Secretary
Of War and the Governor-G Gen
eral of the Philippines have
united in q reminder to Con-
gress that any notifications Of
existing trade relations between
the Philippines and the main.
land would violate the so-called
Philippine independence Act,
which Congress passed only a
few weeks ago.
BY the terms Of that legiSla-
ton, as Secretary Dern has
said, a contract was entered
into which fixes trade relations
between the islands and the
mainland for a period Of years.
Now the House repudiates
this contract by voting a pro-
hibitive tariff on copra and
cocoanut oil from the Philip
pines, which would rob nearly
four million Filipinos of their
means nf livelihood
Breach of Contract
Since the tariff act Of 1918,
free trade, with certain restric-
tions, has existed between the
islands and the mainland. And
as long as the islands remain a
part of the United States, this
arrangement cannot be justly up
set without the consent of the
American people and the Philip
pine people.
The action of the House ap.
pears to have been an absolute
breach of contract. It violates
the obligation of the United
States to a dependent people
ten thousand miles across the
Pacific. The pretenSe that the
exclusion of Philippine copra
and copra and coconut oil will
aid the American farmer is an
insult to him because it assumes
that he is willing to be aided at
the expense of the honor Of his
country and one of the chief
industries of a dependent people.
This pretenSe is also an insult
to the intelligence of the Amer
lean farmer who knows perfectly
well that cottonseed oil is not
satisfactory substitute for COCO
nut oil and that coconut oil is
only one Of several oils which
compete with animal fats.
AS a matter of fact, the same
lobby which put through the So
called Philippine independence
bill a few weeks ago is largely
to blame for the misinformation

An Essential Program
Projects Are Needed Now

The proposal Of the District Commissioners that they be
allowed to funds authorized under the Capper Cramon
act to obtain aotments from the Public Works Admnistra
on for necessary local improvements deserves prompt and
favorable action by the Congress.
Under this act the District directed to borrow $6000
900 for the development parks the money paid back
to the Federal Government in annual installments Of
$1,000,000
The economy interrupted the program and there
mains Of the authorized borrowing more than $1200O000
PARK DEVELOPMENT Is HIGHLY DESIRABLE AND
70, IN FACT, NECESSARY TO PERMIT THE HAR-
MoNIoUs AND PROPER GROWTH OF THE NATIONAL
CAPITAL.
YET, AS BETWEEN THE ESTABLISHMENT OF PARKS
AND THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE PROJECTS WHICH
THE COMMISSIONERS NOW HAVE IN MIND, THERE
WOULD SEEM TO BE NO DOUBT AS TO THE WISDOM
OF PRoCEEDNG WITH THE COMMISSIONERS PRO
GRAM.
They propose to obtain the money authorized under the
Capper Cramon ac couple with grants from the Public
Works Administration and finance projects Of which the
city has immediate need.
UNDER THEIR PROGRAM THE CITY WOULD BE
ABLE TO BUILD MODERN HOSPITAL FOR THE
TREATMENT OF ADULT TUBERCULOSIS PATIENTS
SUCH AN INSTITUTION Is nPERATIvELY DEMANDED
u THE CITY Is TO CUT THE ENORMOUS DEATH RATE
FROM THIS DISEASE.
It be built for about $2000000 and the suggestion of
the Commissioners seems to be about the only way start
can be made the project within a reasonable time
THE BIGGEST PROJECT ON THE COMMISSIONERS
LIST IS THE SEWAGE DISPOSAL PLANT DESIGNED TO
CLEAN UP THE DIsGRACEFUL POLLUTION OF THE Po-
ToMAC RIVER
This project oo vital to the good health of the citizens Of
the community
has been recognized that the danger Of the filthy cond
ton Of the river has been growing for years.
This has not only mperied the health Of the CITY but it has
prevented its citizens from utilizing for pleasure and profit
great natural resource.
THE COMMISSIONERS PROGRAM ALSO INCLUDES
THE EXPENDITURE OF SEVERAL MILLIONS OF DOL
LARS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF NEW SCHOOL BUILD
INGs.
Even cursory study of the school system shows that such
program Of construction is essential
The attitude Of Congress regard schools
has deprived and is dprvng the children city of their
right to proper education in modern class rooms
This difficulty could be largely by carrying through
the program advanced by the Commissioners
