Today S Science
BY DAVID DIETZ

EVIDENCE that the Bahama Islands may once
L. upon a time have been peninsula jutting out
into the Atlantic from the coast of Florida has been
brought back by a joint expedition OF Harvard and
Yale scientists.
If you will refresh your memory of the geography
of this region by glance at the map, you will no
tice that the Bahamas form an archipelago extend
ing along line from Florida on the northwest to
Haiti on the southeast To the south of the archp-
elago lies Cuba; to the north the open Atlantic.
The Bahamas have never been charted with COM
pete thoroughnesS. 1t is estimated that they
tain twenty-nine islands, 661 keys and 1887 rocks.
Best known of the islands is the familiar winter re-
sort, Nassau. Columbus landed upon one of the
Bahamas and called it San Salvador"
Geographers have been arguing since
which of the islands he really landed. The Ba-
hamas legislature in 1926 decided officially that
Waiting Island was the San Salvador" of Columbus
The Harvard-Yale scientists visited forty of the
less known and extremely inaccessible islands of the
Bahamas and other West Indian islands num-
Der of them islands which had never before
been visited by scientists.
THE Harvard-Yae expedition made the cruise
Il this spring on the yacht Utowana owned by
Allison " Armour
One of the interesting accomplishments of the ex-
petition was visit at Atwood Key.
I'VE heard some years ago from DR.. G. S. Doley
of Nassau that he had passed the Atwood Key dur
ing an unusually calm time while cruising on the
small sailboat used by the bishop of the Bahama
Islands for his pastoral visits and that this is
guinea pigs" DR.. Thomas Barbour says.
THE party succeeded in catching some Of the
rodents but they were subsequently lost when a
storm came up during which the bishop ship
wrecked on Marguana Island.
Nov no indigenous rodents still exist in the
Bahamas, except for a colony tiny, uninhabt-
ed islet known East Plana Key. We had COLI
lected them there
"EOR years we have been trying TO get to Atwood
IL Key" DR.. Barbour continues. This year, Mr..
Greenway got small sail boat at Crooked Island
and beat upwind to Atwood Key fifty miles against
terrific headwind.
1.-THE boat small enough to get throught the
barrier reef and he landed on both Atwood Key and
Black BOBBY Key. He found few lizards and few
land shells, all evidently unknown species, but
sign of the rodents.
From the evidence of devastation and the enor-
nous rocks thrown high on the islet by some tre-
mendous quite recently it may be assumed that
the great hurricane of october 1928, was the cause
Of the disappearance Of these rodents"

Cheap Labor on Hand

HOWEVER, there is always a large reserve supply
l. in Gary itself. Back in the 1919 strike the
United States Steel Company brought many Negroes
into Gary. Most of them have remained. Many still
work in the plant but thousands of them are unem-
ployed. The Negro section of the city is perhaps the
most appalling of all the housing horrors In more
recent times good many MeXcanS were brought to
the plant. Some of them have been sent home but
there is still residium of cheap labor which can be
tapped
just how far organization has gone is anybody's
guess The strike leaders naturally set much high
figure as to their electives than the company
spokesman are willing to admit. The actualty as far
casual visitor has any right to hazard opinion
is that the skilled workers we'll knit the unskilled

THE tnfammatory condition of the skin which
causes the face to become covered with pimples,
but which also may affect neck, shoulders back and
chest is known scientifically as acne
Specialists in diseases of the skin describe various
types of acne according to size and shape of the
the pimpleS.
Usually these pimpes are associated with an in
lection of the skin by germs of various types in
GLIDING not only the germs which are supposed to
be specific for acne but also the usual pus-forming
germs called staphylococci
These conditions usually come on in youth and
may be associated to some extent also with the
1uncuonlng OF various glands. There certain
diseases in which pimples are likely to occur par
tcularly diseases of the digestion.
Sometimes the taking of drugs like bromdes and
lodfdes Will increase the number of pimples.
THE best way to prevent pmples is, of course,
Il to observe absolute cleanliness about the skin
Blackheads should be squeezed out under careful
conditions. The face should be washed thoroughly
with hot water.
The skin may be soaked in hot boric acid solu-
ton containing about three heaping tablespoonfus
of powdered boric acid to three quarts of hot water
The face may be soaked for ten to fifteen minutes
with towels wrung out in hot solution of this type
This will remove the grease and loose skin from
the face, as well as the material from the pimples
and backheads.
A FTER this heating process the blackheads may
n be squeezed out properly with a special black
head extractor. Then the skin may be treated with
successive sponges of cold water to contract the
pores and the dilated blood vessels.
Specialists in diseases of the skin provide various
ofrtments, salves and pastes for rritated and in
fected skin. 1t is also possible in the
cases to bring about good results by use of the
X-ray.
With all this, the general hygiene of the body
may be improved and the constipation and ndi-
gestion should be overcome by suitable diets There
should be plenty of outdoor exercise and fresh air.

But, apart from Senator Norris,
who does not count as a Repub-
lican, there were no Republican
senators on hand to prove to the
American public what a menace
there is in their midst. The great
opportunity to confront him,
vivisect him, and destroy him has
come and gone, and not a real Re-
publican was present.
Some of them, it may be, were
too busy preparing their speeches
attacking him. Others may have
said to themselves that by leaving
the inquisition to Democrats they
would profit by any damage in
f1icted, and then could go on talk
ing about the revolutionary plot
on the assumption that mere
Democrats like Smith, Byrd and
Bailey would not or could not ex-
pose it.
By staying away they have sal
vaged some part at least of a cam
paign issue. But to the sincere.
people who really believe that
there is a revolutionary conspiracy
among the new dealers, it must
be disturbing that no Republican
was there to fight the good fight.

In the higher bracket appoint
ments, Henry now has an under
standing with Jim Farley. That
car of Democratic patronage has
agreed to let the AAA employ the
experts and chief executives it
wants, giving the postmaster-gen-
eral a free hand with the small
time jobs.
Before this was worked out, dis
senSion between Farley and the
AAA brain trust was pretty bit
ter.
We've got to get young lawyers
who are willing to fight for a
cause" Jerome Frank, head of the
AAA legal division, told the post
master-general. They will have
to buck some of the biggest firms
IN the country and some of the
ablest lawyers. And since we can't
afford to pay them anything, we
will have to get men who will.
work only for ideals"
At first Jim Farley thought he
was crazy. And Jerome Frank
thought the same of Jim.
Now the AAA picks its own ex-
perts, but goes through the process
of having them OK'd through Far
ley's office later.
THE plan works." says Frank.

Holman of the national board of
farm organizations, Charles Brand
of the National Fertilizer Associa-

OF the Moline Plow Company, who
acted as go-betweens for the gov
eminent and the farmer.
But these men, it now turns
out, were not in contact so much
with the farmers as with the big
processors-the meat packers, the
grain men, the tobacco manufac-
turers, the milk distributors. And
these, at times, represent any,

view.

Bitter Tactics May Come

A matter of fact both sides suspicious and
n suen in their attitude toward the transient. I
tried to get information about the situation
from workers in several bars and lunch rooms but
they all gave me short and evasve answers. I'm
doubtedy they have reason to fear the blacklist and
the labor spy.
In saying that everything points to violence if a
struggle comes 1 have no intention of suggesting
that the so-called outside agitator" plays any i'm
portant role in this territory. 1t is American
fallacy to that violence always indicates left
wing activity. An A. F. of L. struggle can be, and
often is, just as violent any other.
Toledo, for instance, had practically no Com
munist admixture and yet there no lack of bit
ter tactics. 1t must be remembered that the strike
in itself is not radical weapon at all. Certainly it
has its place in our American tradition.

and full of static. It's biggest job
now is getting down to land.
This is what Henry Wallace is
trying to do on his present swing
around the country. And for
cabinet member he is doing a re-
markable thing. He is discard
ing canned speeches, carefully
prepared in advance, and really
talking to the people.
Furthermore, he is not mincing
words. What he is saying is that
the farmer faces just two alter
natives: Either making a success
of the principles with which the
AAA is struggling, or else accept
ing the fate of European coun-
tries-dictatorship.
TN addition to his many other in
terests Secretary of Agricul-
ture Wallace has genuine regard
for the Indians, believes in giving
the Red man square deal.
While on his present trip he
visited the Navajo Indian reser-
walton and found it desperate for
water. Only the drilling of six
wells Immediately, he found, could
save the Navajos from disaster
and drought.
So he sent a telegram to the
Indian bureau of the interior de-
partment, Washington, D. c.,
making specific reservations to
this end. He signed the wire:
H. A. Wallace"
Received in Washington, off,
Gals of the Indian bureau looked
puzzled.
Have we a field worker named
H. A. Wallace'?" they asked.
There was no one so registered.
So they searched the interior de-
partment, finally took the name
up to Secretary Ickes' office.
1t was only then that some one
remembered that H. A. Wallace"
was the Secretary of Agriculture.
