failed 10 obtain its objective Of per-
manent peace.
At least $4,000 Bolivians and r.
600 Paraguavans are estimated to
have been killed outright in the
sanguinary strife that began in
1923 and since has challenged the
efficiency Of every existing agency
for the promotion Of international
peace.
Washington BuenOs Aires. Mon

Peace Machinery Handicapped
From six years OF diplomatists'
dIsillusIOnmcnt has stood out the
fac: that when nations once enter
into active combat the machinery
Of peace is under great handicap in
efeCting a settlement Diplomacy
Of the cOmbatant countries tends to
become the tool rather than the
master Of the armed forces. and the
commanders ~uppOrt or reject peace

International peace moves regard
ing the Bolivian araguayan war
have not had the desired effect of
terminating the strife but it is a
noteworthy fact that the four great
neighbOring countries. Argentine,
Brazil. Chile and Peru have them
selves been able to maintain pacific
policies and have refused to be-
come involved in the combat.
Fears Prove GrOundIess
This is remarkable in view OF
widespread fears entertained SIX
years ago that South American
countries might divide into two
great armed camps
The Chaco difficulties also have
served 10 convince most diplomats
that effective peace efforts must be
made through A world rather than
strictly regional org LizatiOn.

NO PROOF THAT
AMERICANS ARE
GOING INDIAN"

Harvard's division of anthropology
In its recent researches seems to
have disposed of the theory that
used to be stoutly maintained, that
Is, that the American type Of nan
is reyerting to that Of the Indian.
We have always been skeptical of
the hypothesis that the mingled
white race of North America would
approach nearer and nearer In re-
semblance to the Indian simply be-
cause 1t inhablts the same territory
and is subject to the same influences
of climate. The Indian is tan Though
not In some trlbes), rangy, rawboned
and In color rudy brown. En-
thuslastic theorists profess to see
the same characteristics appearing
In Americans whose families have
been on this side the ocean two or
three hundred years. They even add
taciturnity, which is regarded as an
Indian trait.
But the whites of America have
bred and prospered In an environ
ment entirely at variance with that
of the Indian. with the exception Of
the climate. They r now largely
sedentary, II we except the farmer,
and are not hunters and walkers.
They tend to grow shorter In stature
In cities, though by no means
stunted.
The Indians are red-brown In color
because their prlmitIves, ages ago In
Asia, were Of that complexion. There
can be no doubt that the aboriginal
races of this continent crossed to 1t
from the cradle of humanity first In
habited Of the great bodies OF land,
by means Of the chain of islands
spanning Boring sea and inclosing 1t
on the south. Some of the descend
ants Of these first settlers retain all
of the features Of present nomadic
tribes In northeastern Asia. Others
have been modified In form and
p~hysiognomy by the life they have
led and probably by the foods that
have been their daily %sustenance. We
scarcely know what ten or twenty
centuries of maize and venison
would accomplish, but 1t must be
something that would be visible.-F.

Footprints left on a muddy shore
by some of the first feet that ever
walked the earth recently were
brought to Mount Union college, Al
lance, Ohio, by Prof. George f.
Lamb of the geology department.
The soft mud on which the long-gone
animal walked was buried and ages
ago hardened into stone. The FIVE
foot slab recording their passage was
found on a farm in Ohio.
The animals were members Of the
primitive amphibian family called
Stegocephalidae, which came ashore
and walked some two hundred mil
lion years ago.
There were 90 species of this fam
fly in the Coal ages, but the whole
stock vanished as long as 125,000,000
years ago, according to Science
Service. They all seem TO have been
short-legged, elongated creatures
with armored skulls. The slab shows
that the animal which made these
tracks had four toes on each front
foot and five on each hind foot. One
of the interesting things about them
was their third "eye." All well-pre-
served skulls of these animals have
q small hole in the roof bones over
the brain. Rudiments of this open
ing can be distinguished even now In
the brains Of all vertebrates, includ-
ing man.-Literary Digest.
