LIE VETERANS were engaged on
FERA building projects in the
keys.
COL IjamS, assigned to the inves-
tigation by Frank T. Hines, head of
the Veterans Bureau, at the request
of President Roosevelt. arrived here
today and Immediately called a
conference of all Federal agencies
in the area. He planned to an
nounce his course of action later.
Other developments today in
Guided:
Gov. Dave Sholtz ordered States
Attorney George A. Worley TO con-
duct an investigation similar to that
proposed by Federal authorities.
Col. Ijams announced veteran
victims of the hurricane will be
given military funerals here.
Harry l.. Hopkins, Federal Work
Relief Administrator, in Washing
ton, authorized a 100000 grant to
Florida to speed the rehabilitation
program.
Headed for New York City
The hurricane, meantime. after
laShing the west coast of Florida
and cutting eastward across the
state before swinging northward
along the Atlantic Seaboard, ap-
preached New York City this after
noon. It's intensity was conSidera-
bly, diminished however. Property
and crop damage in Florida and
south Georgia was heavy. D. w.
Thompson and his wife were killed
today at New Bern, N. c., when
they came into contact with an
electric wire felled by the storm.
Three outstanding problems pre-
sented themselves to relief workers
here. First was the matter of SAM
tation, involving disposal of Ire
bodies of storm victims. GOV.
Sholtz announced cremation may
be ordered after consulting With
state health officers" But Presi-
dent Roosevelt requested that un-
der no circumstances should crema-
ton be permitted.
Second was the task of tracing
the 800 veterans and 70 civilians
listed as missing. Officials feared
many of these may have been
drowned when seas of tidal wave
proportions swept the keys at the
height of the hurricane Monday.
Inspection Party Leaves
Third was the question of relief
to survivors. Some relief officials
said the veterans will be transferred
to CCC camps. The allotment of
Federal funds, however, is expected
to simplify the rehabilitation Of
others.
An official party prepared to leave
for an airplane inspection of the
stricken keys area. Gov. Sholtz, Col.

Its remarkable" says Baylor
professor, how the Keys girls have
had so much attention and adula-
ton and withstoOd egotism."
One thing the sisters want the
world to know is that they are
four separate and distinct indivld-
uals, each able to think and act
for herself.
Of course, they have their little
snats. being entirely normal girls.
For instance, there's the regular
morning argument about what
they'll wear. They've always dressed
alike-their mother making all
their dresses-and when one wears
out a dress, all the others must
discard theirs, to keep in step.
A FTER d half hour or so of
IN wrangling, they make up
their minds, with Leota, most
vivacious of the group, usually
having the last word about how
they'll be CARRIED.
What are their hobbies?
Well. one of them is-babies!
we've always adored babies"
declares Mona. And would we be
glad to see those quintuplets! I've
often imagined holding one Of
them in my arms. And I've Won
dered about the odd one, too, for
you see there'd be one over, with
the Keys bankruptcies holding the
Dionne quintuplets."
The girls are not sure what they
want in the way of careers.
They're certain they'll attend col
lege for two more years. Then
they admit that two or more years
on stage or screen would give them
a fine chance to travel and &C

Staggering Cost Of Arms Race
Driving All Nations to Financial Ruin

John Simon that Germany's mill
tary air force is the equal of
Britains. This force and fields to
harbor it, forbidden by the Treaty
of Versailles, were secretly con-
structed largely during 1884.
Government subsidies also went
to the Reich's chemical and
other war industries. Thus Ger
many's present military expend-
itures far exceed pre-war figures.
Experts declare Germany's
economic position is so shaky that
they give her at most two years
to curtail expenditures, increase
exports and otherwise put her
house in order.
Italy's huge military OUTLAWS
can but endanger her financial
status. BY mid-June, it is stated,
she will have more than mil
lion men under the colors, scores
of thousands of them overseas in
Abyssinia-a ck-breaking enter
prise.
Similarly the five great sea
powers are on the point of en-
gaging in a naval race of stu
pendous cost. The Washington
naval agreement automatically
ends with 1896. After that, the
sky is the limit
Statesmen in the leading cap
itals are more deeply worried over
all this than they have been in
a long time. They are now try
ing to do something about it.

Today S Science
BY DAVID DIETZ-

A NIERICA may be on the road to becoming a
\ nation Of old men. II present bars are kept on
immigration. a population containing fewer youths
and more old persons is in prospect for this country
according TO DR.. o. E. Baker of the United States
Bureau OF Agriculture Economics.
Within the last five years. he says the number
OF Young children in the nation has decreased 10
per cent while the number of persons 65 years of
age has increased II per cent.
The American birthrate has been declining for
more than century but the actual number of
births did not start 10 show decline until 1921.
Since that time. the decline has been marked. In
1921 there were 1000 600 births in the United States
IN 1884. there were 100000.
II this decline continues. Dr. Baker says. it Will
L begin 10 show in the figures for the total popula-
tion Of the country in another 10 years. For the
next 10 years he says. the total population of the
United States Will continue to show an increase until
the total for the country is about 100000 larger
than IL is now.
After thar however. unless the immigration solicy
is changed the total population Of the United States
viii begin 10 decline.
Meanwhile he says. "the number Of old per-
sons VIII increase by one-third each decade This
increase is inevitable for they are living now, and
the number who VIII die can be estimated closely
The population in northwestern Europe has
nearly reached its peak. DR.. Baker believes.
He points ont that the greatest number Of births
in both England and Germany occurred during the
years 1905 and 1903 The present brthrste marks
80 per cent reduction for England. The 1888 birth
rate IN Germany represented about so per cent
reduction.
IN ENGLAND. the population has reached maxi
L mum and probably will soon begin to decline
Dr. Baker saws. however. that the extraordinary in
crease IN births IN Germany in 1884 the apparent
result OF a revival Of the will TO survive has made
the prospect there uncertain.
The peak in the birthrate for the United States
came in 1921 70 1924 about II years later than in
Germany and England
From 1924 TO 1880. births in the United States
decreased about 5000. The decrease jumped TO
100 900 a year during the years 1890 10 1888 Dr.
Baker thinks the 1884 rate may have Jumped little
because Of the large increase IN marriages many OF
which had been postponed during the depression
But marriages are now back TO prevdepreSSoin num-
bers and DR.. Baker thinks II unlikely that births
Will increase after 1885.
As might be expected. DR.. Baker finds the decline
in the brthrate has been faster IN the cities than
IN the rural communities This because Of the fact
that city conditions double or triple the cost Of rear
ing child what 1t Is in the country.

There were WOrkrnen engaged in the construction
Of the Sick Chicken who born aboard her, spent

able to 90 forward
Eventually he learns to ride the bicycle so well
that his actions are quite automatic and he does not
even hold the hande-bars in propelling himself
forward. This is learning by establishing a habit.
THE intelligent child learns also by what is known

1t will sample new food substance and if attracted
will eat it again.
1t may, for example. try to put on its stockings
while standing up Eventually it sits down and pulls
on the stockings finding that the process is carried
out much more easily in this manner.
If the child is intelligent it will thereafter sit
down before pulling on its stockings if not the child
may go on day after day trying to put on the stock
