Preferred Lists Scored

TN reviewing Mr.. Coolidge's presidency, Mr.. Beck

"Al the stored wealth of America is due to- the
right Of the individual man to sell his labor.
whether of brain muscle, in his own discretion to
earn more than he spends and thus accumulate
surplus" Mr. Beck said.
The investment bankers in the exercise of their
precious American right to accumulate surplus re-
sorted, as the senate banking committee found, to
methods which "vioative of the most ele-
mentary principles of business ethics"
The report also discusses the famous preferred
lists"
Public officials who consent to participate in pre-
ferred lists swiftly find themselves in a position
where their usefulness is impaired seriously and they
incur the danger of FORGETTING the respect of the pub
lc," the document says.
Implicit in the bestowal of favors on this mag
nifcent scale is pervaSiye assumption OF power and
privilege Implicit in the acceptance of such favors
is record of that power and privilege. The pre-
ferred lists with all their grave Implications cast
shadow over the entire financial scheme"
The report then drops in reminder that Mr..
Coolidge was one Of the prominent Americans whose
names found on the preferred lists 1t is true
that Mr. Coolidge did not avail himself of this oppor
tunty to add to his surplus until he had left the

Today S Science
BY DAVID DIETZ

THOUGH astronomers studying stars and
Il nebulae trilons of miles away, they still have
plenty of unsettled problems close at home. There
still many puzzles to be solved with regard to
the earth's nearest neighbour the moon.
One Of the chief problems occupying astronomers
is whether not there any changes on the
moon.
1t is certain that there are large-scale changes
the surface of the for the largest telescopes
give q view of the moon which is similar to that
which the unaided eye would afford if the
were only from fifty to 100 miles away.
If there was any object the size Of the Graf Yep
pelin moving the moon. the big telescopes would
reveal it.
DISCUSSING the problem Of changes DR.. Henry
- Norris Russell, the dean of American astron-
oners. writes, 1T is certain that there
spcuous changes; there such transformations
as would be presented by the earth view telescop-
caly-no clouds, no storms. no snow Of winter, and
no spread of vegetation in the spring
"At the same time it is confidently maintained by
some observers that here and there alterations do
take place in details of the lunar surface, while
others as stoutly dispute it."
The great majority of astronomers agree that the
moon is utterly lfeless All evidence points clearly
to the fact that the moon has no atmosphere.
THERE is also evidence that no water exists upon
l. the moon few writer's have occasionally sug-
gested that there might be some water in the cracks
on the moons surface.
Professor Russell, however, points out that such
water would evaporate, and since the moon has
atmosphere disappear into space forever.
few Of those who think they discern changes
in the surfaces Of the moon have suggested that
these changes might be due to vegetation. Vegeta-
ton would of course necesstate the presence of
ter and so it is unlikely that these changes il they
do exist, are vegetation.

Coolidge Was Important

NEVERTHELESS, he was a private citizen of
y such great political Importance that to
this day the anniversary of his Inauguration is made
an occasion for political rally at his old home
town. The same considerations which would have
deferred Mr.. Coolidge from accepting such favors
while he in office therefore did not expire abb
ruptly the hour that he had done his bit and turned
the job over to Mr. Hoover.
1t is not his reputation that he was man so
lovabe, personally, that fnancier should wish to
do him such favor just out of personal friendship.
1t is more likely that his position private
citizen, was an important consideration.
The horny handedness of the rugged Vermonter
in Mr.. Coolidges old neighborhood is nice to read
about but like the light of the oil lamp it need not
