NEW YORK, Nov. 2-ScentiStS of the nation are
l Y being urged by the National Research Coun-
Gil to join forces in attack upon the unsolved
problems regarding the formation of petroleum de-
posts, ore deposits, and varied types of soils
These problems, of major significance to the au-

ture are borderland problems requiring the Coop
Grafton OF scientists in many fields for their solution
Bascaly, the problems involve cooperation of
the chemist and geoogist, for they are problems in

There is particular need. in the opinion of Or F.
X. Richtmyer, dean of the Cornell University Grad

the ways in which minerals which are chemical
compounds formed when the earth's crust was TAX
ing shape

1t is particularly important, Dr. Richtmyer be-
lieves &c -y experiments which would duplicate the
processes under which deposits came into exist

Such information would be of more than aca-

Corde|l Hull Calls Spade by Nicer Names,
But the Reporters Know Just What He Means

THOUGH some of the State
Il Department reporters get a
little annoyed now and then with
Hull's diplomatic generalities,
nearly all of them like him and
consider him good Secretary of
State. And even though vague,
they consider him honest with
newspaper men, which is more
than they could say for some of
his predecessors.
They say one thing about him,
that he never refuses to say
something in reply to a question,
as many Cabinet officers do. He
may not give you the answer, but
he talks in reply just the same.
1t is only occasionally that re-
porter gets tough" and shoots
insistent questions at Hull. And
then the secretary seems to enjoy
it. He is, of course, a veteran of

THE END

the more rough-and-tumble Jour-
nalism of the House and Senate,
where reporters often say to Sen
ators just what they think.
And it is probable that the soft
gloved, smooth-tongued conversa-
ton of the State Department
sometimes wearies him, and he
welcomes verbal joust with a re-.
porter who talks straight.
One day, right in the middle of
a sentence during his press con-
ference, Hull happened to glance
over at a bust on a pedestal along
the wall. He stopped and, looking
at it, said half to himself, Who's
that?"
One of the reporters told him it
was Brand Whitlock.
Hull said, oh" and went right
ahead talking where he had left
off.

neWSpapermen every day. And
sometimes, when things are hot,
he sees them twice day.
He always stands up throughout
the conference. The reporters
stand up too, grouped around the
table. At Hull's right stands Mich
ael McDermott, White-haired vet
eran press chief OF the State De-
partment.
Hull frequently hands a report
of some kind to McDermott, and
says to the reporters, Mr.. Nc
Bride will give you this after the
conference" Hull's assistant is
named Mcbride, and he is always
getting him confused with Nc
Dermott.
Hull gives no indication of
knowing any of the reporters per-
sonally, and yet he does know
them all, and occasionally makes
some remark when they come back
from vacations.

the Occident, like ourselves in
America, divert the course of our
own economy and civilization.
If the empire owners can not
or will not agree-there is no rea-
son why America should be
dragged down with them. Let us
not be fooled by treaties. Peace
pacts and non-aggression treaties
are so much eyewash.
TN 5000 years of history, there
l. have been something like 5000
peace treaties signed, and less
than $50 of them observed.
Tabulate from any schoolboy's
American history book and you
will find that in $50 years of
American independence, we have
had six major conflicts, or one
on an average of every Is years.
Our participation in the last one,
began in 1917. 1t is now 1885.
Figure the law of averages for
yourself.
But if there is no hope in treaty
making, there is hope in chang
ing ones economy. At least one
can divert the reinvestment of
surplus capital and disposition of
surplus goods from their present
direction. The capital can be re-
invested in America.
And the national economy can
be rearranged so that we will not
have the surplus of goods, which
must be disposed of in foreign
territory, to create more capital TO
put into the production of more
goods and round the merry-go-
round again.
1t means control of the invest
ment of surplus capital. 1t means

America followed with de-
valued dollar, and the temporary
heady effects were like a glass OF
wine on an empty stomach.
But this phase has also reached
its end. The next step is the
movement of navies, and the
building of new ones. We are in
the midst of this now.
Coupled with it is the jockey
ing for position, the job of max
ing friends and lining up those
who will be the most useful to us.
The stage then becomes set-and
a spark is all that is needed to
blow the whole caboodle sky high.
The spark is always what the
diplomats call IAN incident"
Maybe the slaughter of Italians
and Philippians round the water
wells in Ual-Ual, will 60 down in
future history as the incident"
that started the current war.
TINE Italians were willing to
Il talk about the incident" with
fellow powers, but they were not
willing to discuss boundaries. Ual-
Ual is some 10 to 80 miles inside
the Ethiopian frontier from Ital-
ian Somaliland. Plainly Italian
frontier patrols we're on the wrong
side of the fence.
But the Ethiopian frontier line
has been famous for it's haziness
in certain European chancellories.

The eloquent minorities of the

NTASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-Ob-
W servers who have visited
Italy recently for an uncensored
count of the pulse of public opin-
ion have one by one agreed, some
of them reluctantly, that there re-
mains an amazing solidarity in
support of Mussolini and his invas-
ion of Ethiopia.
Actually, they admit, when an
Italian in the street says that to
die for Italia is to find true living,
he seems to mean it. The old
worry about government agents
disguised as laTnp-posts or water
ing troughs doesn't appear to
enter in.
And when 100000 Romans con-
verge on Venice palace to hear
