TODAY'S SCIENCE
by SCIENCE SERVICE

MO weather, only climate, would
L y be the lot of the earth if the
sun always poured its light and
warmth forth at an even, unvary-
ing rate. Only because the sun is
a variable star, one of the innumer-
able celestial candles that flicker
instead of shining steadily, do We
have the sharp, sometimes violent,
changes in the earth's atmosphere
which we know as weather.
This is one of the ideas concern
ing the connection between the
suns radiation and the earth's
weather suggested by DR.. Charles
Greeley Abbot, secretary of the
Smithsonian Institution, who is TAX
ing part in the meeting at st. Louis
of the American Association for the
Advancement of Science.
DR.. Abbot'S opinion is based on a
study of statistical correlations be-
tween the chickering's" or day-to-
day variations in the amounts Of
light and heat given off by the sun,
and the fluctuations in terrestrial
temperatures in considerable num-
Der Of spots on the earth'S surface.
The studies have been conducted
over a considerable length of time,
and represent the compilation Of
many thousands Of individual OBJ
servers.
A surprising feature is the very
small amount IF solar variation that
is often coupled with quite large
changes in terrestrial temperature.
For example, during certain months
of the year variation of solar ra-
diation amounting to only one-half
Of 1 per cent was correlated with
temperature changes Of from five
to 10 degrees Fahrenheit, at Wash
ington.

A WISE SCHOOL POLICY

TINE State Board of Education is to be COM
- mended for placing in the high school courses
of the state lessons in safe driving This enight-
ened move is in accord with driving courses in the
schools of other states notably New Jersey.
We note that the board contemplates driving tests
for students as they reach the age for licensing.
That is wise At present Indiana does not require
examinations for drivers licenses as it should If
the high school students are given tests, examna-
tons for all first licenses will soon follow.

ASKS LOCAL AUTHORITIES
TO PRESS SAFETY DRIVE
BY Frank Arlin

BY Frank Arlin
Your newspaper and the press in
general are to be congratulated and
thanked for the publicity you are
giving to accident prevention work
in an endeavor to reduce the num-
Der Of people killed and injured in
automobile accidents. Your first
page list of those 1856 Marion Coun-
ty residents killed in 1885 by au-
tomobile accidents should cause us
to drive more safely and sanely in
1885.
However, for an appreciate per-
centage of motorists, there is only
one way to bring about common
sense" driving-that method is by
drastic action, or as Theodore
Roosevelt's expression would be, by
use of the ''big stick In Marion
County that power rests with four
public officials, Chief Morrissey,
Sheriff Ray, Judge Dewey Myers and
Judge Charles Karabell.
Until these public officials actu-

carried away by flood or destroyed
by fire. In 1176 Henry II instruct
ed Peter, chaplain of the Church
of st. Mary Cole, to construct a
stone bridge at this point, but the
work was not completed until 1909
in the reign of Henry's son John.
The present London Bridge, about
go yards higher up the river than
the old bridge which was removed
in 1882, was designed by John Rem

Q-How many votes we're lacking
for conviction in the impeachment
trial Of President Andrew johnson?
A-President johnson was i'm
peached by the House of Represen-
tatives. In his trial, the Senate
voted 35 guilty and 10 not guilty,
which was less than the two-thirds
majority vote required fer convic-
ton under the Constitution, and he
was acquitted.
Q-Why do oil stoves explode?
A--Because inflammable vapor
exists in or about the stove, which
comes in contact with the flame.
The presence of such vapor may be
due to the use of inferior oil, or to

ADVISES U. S. TO KEEP


OUT OF WAR
BY Times Reader
Do you want war? Sweden's Red
Gross outfit was bombed in Ethiopia
recently. The Swedish people are
angry.
The American flag and Americans
are there too. Protecting whom? Get
them out of there.
This whole thing looks like
come-on. italy could buy all of
Ethiopia and save money compared
to getting it by war.
Let's take the only thing we can
from the last war A lesson. Let's
get away from the war zone and
stay away. It's a suckers trap.
was the United States justified in
entering the World War? Who did
they fight for? What, if anything,
did they win? Did it end all war?
Did it make the world safe for
Democracy? What would the world
be today if they stayed neutral?
The United States? Remember
crime, prohibition, exports, taxes,
home life must be considered with
the dead, wounded, suffering, cost.
Do your answers say war pays? Or
the next war shall be a defensive
war?
We can have a war right here of
our own on crime, auto accidents
and for good, honest government

Your
Health

DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN
OUR bones are hard because they

.nUR bones are hard because they
~ are made largely from calcium
or lime. The average man has about
four pounds of calcium in his body,
most of it in bones and teeth.
While most of the body's calcium
is in these structures, about one
tenth of a gram is present in each
quart Of blood. The calcium IN the
blood is extremely important for
body health.
The average grown person re-
quireS about As gram Of calcium
every day. This is about one-Sixti-
eth of an ounce. Expectant mothers
require more calcium, because the
baby draws on the mothers supply
for the growth of its skeleton. Nurs-
ing mothers require additional CAL
cium so the child may secure a suf-
ficient amount in the milk.
The child of from 3 to Is years
Of age requires about twice as much
calcium as the average adult, about
one-thirtieth of an ounce each day.
THE baby at birth is calcium
poor. If its bones were as hard
at the time it is born as they be-
come later, many of them would be
broken during the birth process; in
fact, hexibility OF the bones of the
child at birth makes it possible for
it to be born without too many in
juries.
Best method of getting calcium
into the body of the child is in
the form of milk. The growing child
requires a quart each day. If it gets
less than that, it is likely to develop
calcium-poor condition, which will
be reflected in its health.
If the normal amount of calcium
in the body is greatly reduced, dis
turbing symptoms appear. Among
these are convulSive or spasmodic
symptoms called tetany. Infants
with convulsive disorders sometimes
are relieved promptly by adding cal
cium to their diets.
Il
MILK products also provide call
4V1 cium in excellent form. One
and siX-tenths cubic inches Of
American cheese contain 20 times
as much calcium as four ounces of
lean beef, and IL times as much
calcium as one egg yolk.
Swiss cheese contains IA times as
much calcium as cottage cheese,
weight for weight. American
Cheddar cheese contains II per
cent of calcium; Swiss cheese, los
per cent, and cottage cheese, OFT
per cent.
Cheese usually contains about
one-third water, one-third fat, and
one-third protein. Since it is milk
in concentrated form, a pound of
cheese represents the amount of
protein and fat available in gall
Ion of milk.
Other foods that are rich in
calcium are asparagus, celery,
spinach, peas, beans, cabbage, clans,
carrots, and cauliflower.

 UNDATED, Sept. 19. - Spain's governments high command pun ped a deadly stream of cannon fire into the broken rocks of Toledo's Alcatraz fortress, where attack CTS said the explosion of two tre mendous mines yesterday had killed twelve hundred of the sev enteen hundred Fascists, and their women and children.
 But from the blood smeared ru- ins, remnants of the beseiged horde still manned machine guns, making a government victory far from complete.
 Attacking malitiamen waited vainly for white flag. At Saint Jeandelux, France, Fascist Gen. eral Gonzalo Queipo de Llano, ac cused Spanish government forces of killing eight hundred hostages at Bonda on the road to the south ern seaport of Malaga.
 In speech over the radio from Seville he said his troops had succeeded in identifyiny bodies of 512 alleged victims. He declar ed they were moved down by ri- fles and machine guns before the Fascists occupied the town.

such deep Southern States as Mis- sissippi and South Carolina the pri- mary is really the election and of fers the voters almost their only opportunity to voice opposition against any incumbent Democratic Administration The vast majority of these voters could hardly think of going so far in voicing their opposition as to vote Republican in Novmeber
 There have been many predic- tions of rise in the South against Rooseveltian democracy, Senators Glass and Byrd of Virginia, being cited as samples, although both have declared for MT. Roosevelt. Not enough anti-New Deal senti- ment developed in South Carolina to justify the fears Byrnes reput- edly held several months ago that he was in for a hard fight. The Mississippi situation is less marked. It can be recalled, how ever, that President Roosevelt re- gently summoned Harrison to the White House, and announced then that no new taxes would be neces- sary next year.
 The gesture was widely inter preted as an effort to support Har- rison against the attack of his colleague, Senator Bilbo, who was supporting Conner. It would have been looked upon by many as a stinging rebuff to the administra- tion if Harrison had been defeat- ed He wasn't.
