Evolution

There Is very little evidence that
we select mates any more intelll-
gently than prehistoric man and,
while the causes of our evolution
upward are extremely complex and
obscure, most biologists believe evo-
luton has been chiefly due-after
species first appears-to natural
selection and survival of the fittest
those who are best adapted to the
environment. So far, says the De-
troit News, man has not used his
intelligence in the least to promote
his own evolution, but we who ad-
vocate eugenics believe he could do
so and soon improve his race consid-
erably.

Giant air liners cross the Eng
lish Channel many times daily, the
passengers giving little thought to
any possibility of danger. Yet they
owe this modern convenience to the
courage and ingenuity of French
man, Louis Bleriot, who on July 25
1909, first dared the 20-mile flight
from Calais to Dover in a light,
open machine that was a mere kite
compared to the gigantic aIrplanes
Of today.
For nine years preceding this
momentous event, Bleriot had built
10 airplanes in a slow, costly and
dangerous struggle to master the
mysteries of flight.
In that period, however, he had
been first to fly monoplane, first
to put the engine in the nose, first
to place rudder. elevators and sta
bllizer at the tail, and first to use
wheels for landing gear.
France commemorated Rleriots
cross-channel flight with a special
airmail stamp, in 1884, on the
tWenty-1fth anniversary of the
event.

S6 Minimum WAGE
ADOPTED BY FORD
Company Boosts Daily Rate 81
to Get Back to Level
of 1929.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
DETROIT, May 22-Henry Ford,
who stands out in the automobile
industry as the great independent"
stepped up the minimum daily wage
of his 126, 900 employees yesterday from
IS to s6. adding 1900, 900 q month
to the Ford Motor Co. pay roll.
The increase restores the minimum
wage level of the Ford plants to
where 1t was In the depression
months of 1929. The wage increase
Is in line with Ford's often-repeated
observation: I'VE haven't seen any
real wages yet"
Both Ford and Lincoln plants in
Detroit and other cities share In the
upward revision Of the wage scale,
and the announcement said that
many Of the wage brackets above the
new minimum will be given hourly
rate advances from cents upward"
Ford was leader among the princi-
pal manufacturers in stepping up
wage scales as far back as 1914. He
boosted wages from S237 to IS a day
in that year and drew from econo-
mists the prediction that the increase
would be harmful to the company.
Instead Of retracting the plan. the
Ford Co. established wage increases
as q policy. BY 1929 the minimum
Ford daily wage was 81 and held
at that figure until near the end
of 1881.
"The Ford Motor Co. has paid its
workmen total of $623 .000, 900 over
and above what the company needed
to have paid had it followed the gen.
eral wage SCALE" the announcement
said.

NATIONAL BANK
LOANS INCREASE
Controller of Currency An.
nounces ST, ,252, 900 lump
Is First Since 1888.

By the Associated Press.
National bank loans recorded their
first increase since October, 1888, dur
ing the period from December 81,
1884, to March 4, 1885. The increase
was given as $1,252, 900.
This was disclosed today In an an
nouncement by j. r. T. O'Connor,
controller Of the currency. Though
the increase was comparatively small,
it contrasted with O decrease Of
$409, ,375, 900 In loans and discounts
between March S, 1884. the date Of
the Spring call that year for state
ments of condition. and March 1, 1885,
the date of the last call.
Total Assets Increase.
Despite a decrease of 16 in the num-
her of active national banks, 1t was
announced, total assets had increased
1925, ,703, 900 by March 4, 1885, as
compared to December 81. 1884, the
date Of the previous call.
The latest figures showed 5,45l &C
tive national banks, with assets of
s25, ,05s, ,283, 900. which was $3,0lS,-
10000 in excess Of the total reported
by 5,293 national banks on the COM
parable date of last year.
Total deposits Of national banks on
March 4 amounted to s22, 5.699. 900,
an increase OF s339, $4,000 for the
two month period, and a gain OF
$3,225, ,212,000 over last year. Loans
and discounts, which amounted to
81, ,489, ,904, 900 ON March 4, were equal
to 34.02 per cent of total deposits as
compared with 42.04 per cent on the
comparable date last year.
National bank investments In Gov
ernment obligations, both direct and
fully guaranteed. amounted to $7,l2o.-
29l 900, an increase Of 60.o83.0 600
since December 81, and q gain Of
$l,7l2,S43 900 in the year.
Bank Notes Disappear.
Meanwhile, national bank notes,
doomed to disappear completely q few
months hence, were reported TO be
slowly dropping from sight.
In 10 weeks since plans for elminat-
ing this form of currency were an
nounced, the banks have poured $375,-
900 600 into the Treasury's redemp-
tion fund. but actually only $57,000,-
600 in the notes themselves have been
withdrawn from circulation, Of $s45,-
900 900 originally outstanding.
A national bank note is issued by
the individual bank against the Sc
curity of Government bonds of par
ticular types, which the bank must
deposit with the Treasury In addition
to a cash deposit Of S per cent OF the
amount of notes issued. The Gov
ernment securities against which such
notes may be issued are restricted,
for the most part, to two series. total
ing $675, 600, 900. both Of which the
Treasury has called for redemption on
August /. The privilege Of issuing
bank notes against other Government
securities expires July Is.
Thus national bank notes win be
taken out Of circulation, reducing the
forms Of currency to those controlled
by the Federal Reserve Banks or the
Treasury.

What's What
Behind News
In Capital
A. A. A. Converts Smith
to Policies-How Is
Not Yet Apparent.
BY PAUL MALLON.

BY PAUL MALLON.
THE efficiet triple A" publicity
system appears to have slipped
cog somewhere. At least, in
l. all its recent handouts of ac-
complishments, 1t has failed
to mention its greatest-the CONVEX
sion of Senator Smith. This Is said to
be due to modesty. but, If so, 1t is the
first time a publicity man has been
accused of such deficiency.
However, the news should not be
suppressed. Let it be known now and
forever that, if the farm program
should break down, 1t may not prove
a total loss, as long as the A. A. A. has
won its severest Democratic critic
How it did it is not exactly clear.
There are several official and unof-
fetal versions. No matter which one
you accept, it will be tribute to the
political sagacity Of the Wallace-Davis
regime, which was not supposed to
know anything about politics.
The A. A. A. boys have been working
on Smith for the past 18 months, un-
successfully. He is very important TO
them because he Is chairman of the
Senate Agriculture Committee, which
handles their legislation. He blocked
their amendments last session and
helped to hold up their plans for
strengthening their program. This
year, he also assisted in the strong
Democratic congressional resistance to
these same A. A. A. amendments. Re-
Gently, however, he reported them out,
and now he is going to vote for them.

"Asleep at the wheel" Is a much
more common cause of automobile
tragedy than we realize. There were
more than 10000 accidents caused by
doing drivers in this country last year.
Mental and physical fatigue leads to
such accidents. Tired minds and
muscles are slow to react properly and
drowsiness, which naturally follows,
is extremely dangerous.
Lack Of sleep increases the danger OF
doing on into Q snooze from which
one may never awaken. Long periods
Of steady driving, too, invite maps.
When you feel drowsy better snap
out Of it at once. II possible let some
one else drive. When alone some
drowsy motorists slap themselves or
pinch themselves. Others pull on the
road and take q nap.
One commercial driver insists he
overcomes drowsiness by munching
peanuts. Another recommends sing
ing, loud and long (regardless Of
ability. Still other drivers get out
and run up and down the road.
Washing the face In cold water may
help, too.
These suggestions are submitted for
what they may be worth. Take your
chotce.
