ton of the change from mothers
milk to cows milk, which was
rather abrupt. That was because
when they we're five months old,
the supply came to an end.
Their milk was collected, you
see, from mothers all over Toronto
by members Of the Junior League,
brought to the Sick Childrens
Hospital in Toronto, where it was
properly bottled and sterilized
and finally sent by train to CAL
lander in wooden boxes well
packed with ice around each bot
tie.
During the last month or so
they were on this diet, the babies
needed almost gallon every "a
hours of this precious food. When
you consider that one mother
scarcely could produce more than
five or six ounces of milk, you can
see what a gigantic task this COL
lecting of mothers milk for the
quintuplets really was.
Before the milk began to come
from Toronto, some had been sup
piled by DR.. Herman Bundesen of
Chicago and by the Red Cross
nurse of the district, Miss Clouth-
Ter, who went about among her
nursing mothers to collect what
she could.
Amongst all the different fac
tors that contributed to the saw
ing of the Dionne babies lives, I
consider their being kept for so
many months on mothers milk
one of the most important.
DUT, as I have said, when they
- were five months old, the sup
ply came to an end. Ordinarily a
month is needed to accustom a
baby to giving up mothers milk.
We did it by necessity with our
five in a week.
That we had so little trouble
with them in spite of such a sud-
den break, shows, think, that our
babies, even taking into account
their recent recovery from the
most serious illness of their lives,
had built up a good resistance and
hardness.
I do not think the babies ever

he risked his life or that, being q
volunteer, his deed was above and be-
yond the call of duty. He did not
benefit by the stimulating atmosphere
of action or emergency. He was not

did was calmly assimilate a quantity

Mr.. McCarl and the Law.

The amount of money involved in
the controversy between Controller
General McCarl and the Navy Depart
ment is small, and, as far as the equi-
ties are concerned, the Navy Depart
ment seems to stand on pretty solid
ground. But the direct Intervention Of
the President in the matter and the
fact that he backs up the Navy Depart
ment in ignoring ruling by the con-
troller general raises an extraordi-
narily important issue. Controller
General McCarl is the final authority
in administrative interpretations Of
the laws and until overruled by the
courts or until the law is changed by
Congress remains the final authority.
The Navy Departments contention,
with which the President agrees, IS
that the Attorney General and for
mer Attorney General and, in one
case, the Court Of Claims, have ruled
against the controller general. But
in his lengthy letter to Secretary
Swanson the other day Mr.. McCarl
pointed out that the Attorney Cen
erals opinions are advisory only and
not binding on his Office. and cited a
Supreme Court decision as against the
quoted ruling from the Court Of
Claims. At any rate. the remedy for
the laws defect-if ANGLES with
Congress.
Now that the Navy intends to ignore
the McCarl ruling. with sanction by
the President, what becomes of Nc
Carl? Should a precedent be estab-
lished in which the executive branch
of the Government makes its own
Interpretation Of the law, despite what
Mr.. McCarl's office has to say. then
the controller general might as we'll
quit and his Office be abolished. For
it was to prevent just exactly this
situation that the controller generals
Office was established. the incumbent
appointed for a fifteen year term
and prohibited from succeeding him
self. The controller general was to
be responsible only to Congress, and
disbursing officers of the Government
were to be responsible to McCarl.
1t is this law, and the principle
represented in this law, that have
been challenged. Mr.. McCarl will
either philosophically forget the issue,
or demand that it be settled by Con-
gress. If the theory represented in
the enactment OF the budget and &C
counting act is worth preserving, the
issue raised by the Navy Department
and the President should be squarely
faced.

governed the thinking processes of the
Western world for 1000 years. It Is

postulates of logic. It would seem
also to be postulate Of common
sense. There can be, in straight
thinking, no hybrid possibility. y.impos-

But it probably Is not true, Dr.. VIII
liam Maliso1 Of the University Of
Pennsylvania told the Washington
Section Of the American Chemical So
ciety at q recent meeting. The revo-
luton which has swept mathematics
and physics in the past two decades
breaking down the familiar landmarks
Of time, space, mass. dimension, mat
ter and energy-at least has invaded
logic with devastating results, he ex-
planned. One Of the fundamentals to
20 has been this basic ''law Of the ex-
cluded middle" There always is the
third possibility,
DR.. Malisoff warned the chemists
that the devastating revolution in the
structure of human thinking will
strike into the field of chemistry
within the next generation. with re-
suits that are unpredictable but may
bring some Of the most far-reaching
changes the world has known In ma
terial things.
Chemistry, DR.. Malisoff said, Is bound
to be much affected by the abrogation
of this "law Of the excluded middle. 4"
For example, two atoms of hydroRen
plus one atom of oxygen equals one
molecule Of water. But, DR.. Malison
asked, Is this quite true. The most
essential element Of the molecule of
water may be neither the oxygen nor
the hydrogen but the configuration
Of the combination which Is tnde-
pendent Of either Of them, Water is
not hydrogen plus oxygen. It is hy-
drogen plus oxygen plus conngura-
ton pattern-the combination re-
sulting in something which is entirely
distinct in the world and more than
the sum Of its parts.
Only by entering into the spirit Of
these new systems of thinking, DR..
Maliso6 said, can chemistry retain its
independence as q science.

Cuba's Mounting Woes.

What set in fortnight ago as an
apparently innocuous strike of school
teachers and pupils in Cuba has at
length attained the dimensions of an
uprising that has fairly paralyzed the
life of the entire island. The Men
dieta government now consciously
faces a nationwide revolt against its
authority so menacing that it has
found it necessary to proclaim that
the full armed forces of the republic
are ready to 60 into action to back
the President and his threatened re-
gime. The redoubtable Col. Fulgencio
Batista, Cuba's military dictator,
lends his personal prestige to that
announcement.
The Associated Press recounts
graphically today the full extent Of
mounting unrest in the island. With
last nights decision of state depart
ment employees to join in the strikes
already in force. only two government
departments at Havana continue to
function. Nearly four hundred thou
sand teachers and school children are
participating in the movement for
Mendieta's overthrow. Newspaper
publication is practically suspended in
protest against government censor
ship. Hospital service has broken
down. Customs and tax collections
have ceased, with treasury employees
on strike. The post Offices are out
of business, with mail moving neither
into nor out of Cuba, and none moving
on the island itself. The government
telegraph system is out Of action
Havanas street car traffic is almost
completely stopped. Port traffic is
seriously deranged.
All in all, Cuba at the moment
presents the picture Of a dislocated
and demoralized country, struggling
amid conditions from out Of which
