CKULL proportions, HERETOFORE regarded as mIaLh-
- BILE c~riterions of racial classification, are not al
WAYS to be trusted. This is the revolutionary pro-
nouncement just made by DR.. Ales Hrdlicka, world
famous arthropologist of the Smithsonian Institu-
ton. DR.. Hrdlicka has spent as much time, perhaps
in the measurement Of skulls as any other scientist
in the world.
paring the length to the width Of the skull and
noting other measurements, as a definite means Oh
classification. On this basis, many assertions nave
been advanced. For example, it has been claimed
that a negroid population inhabited Scandinavia in
prehistoric times and that the Nineteenth Century
Eskimos were racially identical with the cave jewellers
of France of $4,000 B.. G.
DR.. Hrdlicka now says that disturbing variations
in all these measurements are likely to occur. Even
the famed cephalic index-the relation OF length TO
vidth-can vary in a most disturbing fashion. He
says that if enough skulls are measured it Is found
that all races merge into each other as far as skull
measurements go.
A S an example Of how skulls can change, DR..
N Hrdlicka cites the case Of the American Indian.
There are more than 1900 Indian skulls in the
Smithsonian Institution under the care OF Dr..
Hrdlicka.
The Indian. because Of the change in his mode Of
life. is undergoing far-reaching physical changes, he
saws. During the last half century, owing TO the
transition from the life Of a hunter in the great out
doors to the s~edentary life Of the reservations, the
indian has begun TO grow stout.
This has resulted in changing the muscular
stresses and these, so DR.. Erdlicka claims, are intro
ducing changes in the skeleton. The face in particu-
lar is becoming modified, he claims. Moreover, the
teeth are deteriorating, bringing about changes IN
the jaw.
He also says that similar changes. particularly
dental deterioration, are now going on in the Eskimo.

I'm the meanwhile, as a temporary convenience,
i bookmaking was permitted last summer. The
bookmakers, who pay no tax to the state, made so
much money that they appealed to the statesman

reverse themselves this year and vote against the
mutuel law, which they Endorsed so heartily before.
You can hardly guess the strength of the book
makers appeal to the statesmen, but the fact that
the mutuels, taking down a kitty of, say, D per cent,
would return from $5,000,000 to 100000 will give
YOU an idea. The bookmakers take down a kitty of
at least 20 per cent. This will just suggest the
potency of the arguments against the mutuel Dill,
which the bookmakers have been able to present
both to individual statesmen and to headquarters
in New York City. There is a current newspaper
estimate of $3.50, 900, but that obviously means only
the down payment.
Bookmaking will face a magnificent future OF
prosperity if the mutuel bill is killed, as it undoilbt-
eddy will be, and the arguments to be contributed by
the bookmakers in the years to come Will be stu
pendous. The gambling house magnates think notn-
ing of sending 100000 down to Miami alone, along
toward October every year, to convince the local
authorities that gambling houses are an asses to
the community.

Heavy obstacles beset the Pa
cif1c project. no plane had been
made-could ever be built, said
the skeptics-capable of flying
such long distances over water on
schedule regardless of weather
conditions.
A TECHNICAL staff, headed by
"A Col. Charles A. Lindbergh,
elaborated with aircraft builders
to produce the giant clipper" type
ships with their 3O,O00-mile range
under heavy load in virtually any
weather.
Many routes, over and around
the Pacific, were surveyed under
all conditions to find the safest
and fastest.
Radio engineers worked for
years to develop an airways radio
system with a range far surpass-
ing anything w developed. The
result is a short-Wave radio di-
rection finder with a range of 1000
miles, as compared to the ordi-
nary land radio direction finders
with their 300-mile radius.

A ANNOUNCEMENT of the COM

a tempest in Japan. While Pan
American air bases spotting the
Pacific are commercial bases, they

Although Japan is concentrat-

is also considering an airline link

islands in the Caroline, Marshall

In Florida, the piece-WOrk system still prevails
and the results are very unsatisfactory. There are
no ethics and a man may even listen to reason on
both sides OF a question, causing great confusion
among business men who attempt to transact bust

and pari-mutuel bill in Florida a few years ago
First they passed it. Then it was vetoed. When it
came up again, some of the statesmen had forgot
ten their reasons for voting for it in the first place.
and there was a great %Scurrying around in New York,
where the bill originated, to collect arguments to
convince them all over again. A messenger hurried
down to Tallahassee with the arguments in a
satchel and just barely had enough arguments to
go around.
The New York Legislature at this time is in a most
beWildeling state Of confusion. The New York states
men operate on both systems, the piece-work plan
and by the term, and the two do not mix well.
A year ago, for example. a bill was introduced
and went whooping through to permit p%ari-mutuel
betting on the New York race tracks. Pari-mutuel
betting in New York would return at least SIS JOOO,-

SPANNING PACIFIC IN THREE DAYS
That's Mans Next Great Aim in His Conquest of the Skies
BY SHERMAN MONTROsE

Gan FRANCISCO, April
~15.-Heralding a new
epoch in mans conquest of
the air, a giant Pan-Amer-
can Clipper flying boat will
soon be lifting itself from
the famous bay here and
heading out through the
Golden Gate toward China
more than $500 miles
away.
Back Of this effort to re-
gain the prestige Of the I'D
Yankee clippers which were
the marvel Of the China
trade 100 years ago are mil
lions of dollars spent on de-
velopment and equipment,
two years intensive train
ing of personnel with one
goal in mind, and a triumph
Of American enterprise over
great obstacles.
After several experimental flights
over the 85O0-mile route, the first
regular-schedule passenger cargo
flight will come late in the sum-
mer.
Then passengers and important
light cargo will go aboard at Ala
media or San Diego, CAL, and
reach Canton, China, in about
three days. Today the fastest
ocean ships take three weeks for
the trip.
THE epic journey-which even
in a flying age seems in
credible-will be made in 19-ton
flying boats, powered by four mo-
tors that pull the huge clippers
at better than $50 miles an hour.
Five stops will be made en-
route: At Hawaii, Eastern Island
in the Midway group, Wilkes Is
land in the Wake group, Guam
and the Philippines.
At the end of the flight lie the
great open trade areas of the Far
East, already being reached by
government subsidized airlines of
other powers.
Pan-American, only American
operator of international airmail
lines, serves 80 countries in the
Western Hemisphere and oper-
ates a system in China and

gers. mail and cargo over SO, 900
miles Of routes, easily the longest
airway in the world.

The Outstretched Hand

THE events leading up to the StreSa conference,
l. my Informant remarked, have been, in effect
a repetition of the foregoing.
Herr Hitler-Who now usUrps the functions OF
both Kaiser and Chancellor-tOday faces the OPP
ton of curtailng his program or facing a united
Europe. Even Great Britain has shown there is a
point beyond which she can not go to placate Ger
many as the price of peace.
Sfresa demonstrated. he said. that while there is
no definite coalition against Hitler at the moment,
one is in the making if the Fuehrer persists in his
present course. 1t is for Hitler to say.
Hitler is seen as having two or three months IN
which to show definite signs of Selling the out
stretched hand. The Danubian parley proposed Tor
Rome on May 20 may furnish him with such an
occasion. There. he will be expected to renounce
be dream of annexing Austria, and that will be
Numerically opposed to the Nazi program.

Memories of 1914

TN 1912. Lord Haldane, British cabinet member,
l. visited Berlin supposedly on a direct invitation
fom the Kaiser to effect a rapprochement. 1t fell
through because Britain refused to pay the price.
In July, 1914, Chancellor -Hollweg
made an eleventh-hour bid for British neutrality
by promising not to expand at the expense of France.
This got nowhere largely because it developed that
neither French colonies nor the neutrality of Bel
GUM and Holland was included in the guarantee.
Then as now the British urged Germany to CO.
operate to prevent war, promising that when the
crisis blew over she would do all in her power to
bring Russia, France, Germany and herself into
some arrangement for collective insurance OF the
peace of Europe.
Meantime, she warned, she would maintain a
free hand. While she would not aid France or any
other power to wage an aggressive war, if France
were attacked Britain could not stand by and look
on with indifference.
