Todays Science
BY DAVID DIETZ-

CIXTY MILLION years ago, a three-horned dino
- saur. a gigantic dragon-tailed reptile, eighteen
feet long and ten feet high, roamed over the low
lands of eastern Wyoming. Last week his skull and
jaws were placed on exhibition in the Museum of
Comparative Zoology of Harvard university.
This particular type of triple-horned dionsaur,
previously unknown to science, was discovered in
1880 by Erich M. Schlaikjer, who was then carry
ing on field work for the museum in Wyoming. 1t
has an unusually wide head and for that reason has
been named triceratops eurycephalus. "Triceratops,"
the usual name given to this kind of dinosaur, means
"three-horned." "EurycephaluS" means wide head"
Both words come from the Greek.
The skull of this new type of triceratops is fifty
eight inches long and ffty-three inches wide.
All skeletons of the various types of triceratops
known are from the rock layers of North America
and eastern Asia. They range in age from sixty
to los million years.
The dinosaur discovered by Mr.. Schlaikjer repre-
sents the last recorded survivor of that great group
of dinosaurs known as ceratopsians. This word, also
from the Greek, means horned The triceratops,
having three horns, represent one division of the
ceratopSianS.
THE triceratops, which was a vegetarian. had an
Il equipment of armor-plate to protect it from the
meat-eating dinosaurs which were its contempo-
raries. It's head had a great frill of bone spreading
out over the neck from the skull proper, like a collar.
This was its chief defensive equipment.
It's offensive equipment consisted of two horns on
its brow, a short nasal horn, a powerful beak, and
plenty of teeth. 1t was undoubtedly a slow moving

legs and its Scaly tail was long and heavy.
These horned dinosaurs once roamed the eastern
uplift of the Rocky Mountains from Alberta to New
Mexico. Their skeletons have been found in great
~profuSion.
The Harvard savantS think that the specimen
found by Mr.. Schlaikjer may have been more slen-
der-bodied and more agile than most of the tricer-
atops. This is indicated by the skeletal remains. Its
brow horns were very long while its nasal horn was
very short.
A S THE age or reptiles progressed, dinosaurs Of
IA greater and greater size arose, reaching their cli-
max in huge creatures weighing $50 tons. But the
brain of one of these 150-ton creatures must have
weighed less than one pound. 1t is interesting to
note by comparison that the brain of a 150-pound
man weighs three pounds.
One group of dinosaurs were beasts of prey, feed
ing upon other reptiles. They had birdlike feet
with great claws. Their front legs were small and
powerful. They ran on their hind legs somewhat
after the fashion of kangarooS. The largest Of this
group, known as tyranosaurus rex-that is, the king
tyrant manufactured a length of forty-Seven feet.
An extremely interesting painting, done by
Charles r. Knight, is to be seen in the American
Museum of Natural History. 1t shows a tyranosourus
rex attacking a group of triceratops.

English in the same length of
time-0ne year from June /.
The judge of the race is Maxim
Litvinof, Soviet commissar of
foreign affairs. He speaks both
Russian and English.
nNE reason why Huey Longs
~ colleagues seldom care to
tangle with him is his devastat-
ing disregard of the usual ameni-
ties of senatorial courtesy.
The Kingfish doesn't hesitate to
blurt out what most senators dare
only to think, or a few of the more
daring whisper in the secrecy of
the cloakroom.
Call it gall, or what you will,
but when Huey roars into action
the lid goes off and stays off.
His recent castigation of Sem
ator Pat Harrison, during which
he calmly banded charges that a
closed bank held a large unpaid
note of the Mississippian, was a
characteristic example.
The outburst violated every
senate rule and tradition. All of
which bothered Huey none at all.
When the fact was called to
his attention, he nonchalantly
replied that of course he wanted
to abide by the rules, then turned
to another line of attack on Pat.
During the debate on the Presi-
dents reciprocal tariff bill, Huey
resorted to his favored tactics.
Member after member had ex-
planned at great length, and with
pontifical solemnity, what a deli
cate and complicated thing the
tariff was.
But not Huey. To the blinking
horror of the chamber, he grated
as follows:
There is no hocus-pocus about
this tariff. I vote for your cop
per and you vote for. my sugar.
That's the way it's done. 1t was
the spirit of the Scripture that
caused a man to give his brother
a tariff, particularly when he
needed his brothers vote to get
a tariff for himself"

Your Health
by DIR. MORRIS FIsHBEN-

TNHE chronic invalid who has TO remain in bed a
Il long time suffers occasionally from breaking
down of the skin and tissues. The process is exceed
ingly painful and distressing.
Bed sores occur more often in aged persons than
in the young, but they occur primarily because the
tissues have lost their vitality through illness or age.
In young persons bed sores do not occur fire.
quently, regardless of the amount of pressure or how
greatly the skin may be Soiled.
In the aged, or in those who have been in bed for
a long time, the bed sores develop most often in
places that are pressed upon or in parts of the body
in which the skin is macerated, due to various
causes.
WHETHER we are asleep or awake, our bodies
w are not in any one position for any length
of time. However, If a person lies unconscious or
p~aralyzed, or he is so weak that he can not turn his
body easily, pressure occurs steadily on certain places
and the vitality of the skin, already injured, is dam
aged more greatly.
OF course, the condition can be helped by moving
the patient frequently, to change his position, and
also by using water cushions and other pads to take
away the pressure and to shift it about.
The second most common cause of these bed sores
is maceration of the skin from sweat or from other
s%ecretions of the body. This maceration makes the
skin easily vulnerable to infection.
n n n
TINE bed sores under such circumstances may be
Il prevented by scrupulous cleanliness, by remov-
ing of s~ecretions and e%xcretions as rapidly as pos
sible, and by frequent washings with water, followed
by sponging with alcohol, which tends to harden the
skin and destroy germs on the surface.
Any breakdown of the skins surface gives OPP
portunity for invasion by germs and makes the like
lihood of development of a bed sore more possible.
The sheets of chronic invalids, as well as the
body clothing, should be kept smooth. 1t is also
very important to remove crumbs of food or any
other materials which might lead to r~oughness or
unevennesS of the sheets.
The first sign of a bed sore is usually a diffuse
redness of the skin, which disappears on pressure.
When these spots are found, steps should be taken
Immediately to remove the source of irritation and
to prevent the possibility of infection, by application
of suitable a%ntiseptic substances.

So before the British can pay
they have to turn British money
into American money. This is
what is meant in the technical
jargon of this interminable debate
by the transfer problem"-how to
transfer British pounds into Amer
lean dollars.
Transferring" pounds into dol
lars means buying dollars with
pounds. The British government,
in other words, has to find people
who own American dollars and are
willing to sell them for British
money.
The next thing to fix in mind is
that American dollars can be spent
only in the United States, just
as British pounds can be spent
only in Britain. Therefore if an
American or anyone else who owns
dollars sells them to the British
government the man who sold the
dollars can no longer buy goods in
America. He no longer has Amer
lean money. He now has British
money and the only place he can
spend it is in Great Britain. Thus
in order to pay the international
debt in dollars that many less
dollars have to be spent in Amer
lea and that many more pounds
in Britain.

GARDNER ASKS
JAIL RELEASE
Cafe Owner, Alleged Killer
of City Stage Actor,
Files Writ.

Petition for writ Of habeas cor
pus demanding that Frank G. Gard
ner, Spencer hotel cafe proprietor,
charged with the murder of Thomas
Sargent, Civic theater actor, be
released from custody on bail, was
filed in criminal court yesterday by
Clyde Karrer, defense attorney.
The petition alleges that the pre-
sumption of Gardeners guilt does
not warrant his being held on a
murder charge. First and second
degree murder indictments we're re-
turned by the grand jury.
Gardner is alleged to have struck
Sargent with a blunt instrument"
causing his death, following an ar
gument at the cafe several weeks
ago.

Employment in the iron and
steel plants themselves is today
close to 100000 (38 per cent more
than a year ago. and they have a
weekly pay roll of more than
50, 500 900 (Which is 101 per cent
higher than a year ago..
This employment, these pay
rolls, will be the first and most
apparent losses in a steel strike.
But other industries will be di-
rectly affected if steel production
is shut off. More than 20 per cent
of our steel goes to the automobile
industry. Twelve per cent, most
of the production of the great tin
plate mills, goes to make tin cans
and containers.
A MOTHER II per cent is used
IN in the construction industry,
while railroads, in cars and rails,
use 8 per cent. The oil, gas and
water industries depend on iron
and steel pipe, bridge and ship
building, bodybuilding, office
equipment, agriculture and all
machinery makers must have
steel.
Every one of these industries, and
many smaller ones, would feel the
impact of a steel strike, and if
such walkout succeeded in shut
ting off the c%ountry's supply of
steel it is quite possible that many
thousands of miners, auto build
ers, machinists, construction men,
workers in a score of other trades,
might be thrown out of employ
ment without a chance to do any,
thing about it.

DAILY WASHINGTON
RRY-GO-ROUN
- By Drew Pearson and Robert S. Allen

WASHINGTON, June 14-No appointment to a government body
w in years-poSdbly not even q new cabinet-has aroused such dis
cussion, pressure and heat as selection of the five appointees to the
stock market board.
For upon the men Roosevelt selects for these five posts depends not
only the future national speculation during the next half decade but
also the question of whether Roosevelt is swinging away from his left of
center course to the definite right.
Advice on these appointments has been deIuging the White House
like the Christmas mail. At one side of the deluge at times can be
seen the hidden hand of Professor Moley, still a potent factor in steer
ing the President and on the whole in favor of Stacking Wall Street.
On the other side are a multitude of reacionary friends and in
fruences, constantly floating trial balloons and the names of supposed

Immediately manicured." The cry of the gentle
man from South Carolina in the committee hear

whether the economist from Columbia had ever had

Tugwell passed this test easily enough by reply

enough. Quite evidently Smith will not e satisfied.

It's All Tunney'S Fault

THE restoration of the brutal, vulgar character
II which is the true character of the heavyweight
championship prize fight, is a reform which long has
been awaited by all idealiSts who love the prize
fight profession for its honest sordidness. They
were unhappiest when Gene Tunney, arriving in
Chicago for his second contest with Jack Dempsey.
announced that he was there not to fight but to box
and that he did not regard Mr.. Dempsey as an
enemy, but as a colleague in a profession. It has
taken all this time and a complete change of cast to
redeem the profession from the uplift which Mr..
Tunney wrought.
The Semi-f1nal physical inspection, held Tuesday
at the offices OF the prize fight commission, also
brought about a reunion of several hundred elderly
prize fight characters, including many who have not
been speaking to one another for many years.
Among the group were James j. Johnston, who does
not speak to Mr.. Dempsey, or Jimmy Bronson, who
do not speak to each other. And Dumb Dan Nor
gan, a garrulous character, who is not speaking to
SO many of his old colleagues nowadays that he is
compelled, at times, to go around talking to himself.
Mr.. Baer, however, is on speaking terms with
everybody and especially with Primo Camera. He
speaks fuently to Mr.. Camera and every word he
says is a trife more insulting than the one before.
There is just one peril. When a prize fighter is in
suited mortally he refused to fight on the ground
that he does not wish to enable his enemy to make
any money. Primo right now is insulted about as
thoroughly as it is safe to insult him. One more rude
remark out of Max (Cuddles) Baer and he might
call off the prize fight.
