Judith, she said, "Did Steve tell
you what he did to Toby Lynch
last night?"
Judith nodded. Terrible, wasn't
it,"
"Well Bob seemed to think
that Toby had it coming. But
you know how Toby is-always
opening his mouth before he

M|LL|KAN PROBES
COSM|C RAY ORIGIN
Believes Powerful Particles
Spawned in Spaces Be-
yend Milky Way.
BY ths Associated r-esA

UNIVERSITY. Va. April 23.-Dr.
Robert A. Millikan. president OF the
California Institute OF Technology.
said last night that after years OF
studying cosmic ray effects his bellel
is that these "superpower particles
originate from the transformation OF
matter in the vast spaces beyond the
milky way outside the galaxy OF which
the solar system and the earth are
tiny parts.
In the third and last Of the lee
lures on the Page-Barbour Founoa-
ton which this Nobel prize winner
has been delivering at the University
of Virginia he took up the hypotheses
that scientists have held as to the
origin of coSmic rays.
What can produce such energies
as those of cosmic rays, running up
to 10 or Is billion electron volts?"
Dr. Millikan asked in opening his
last lecture.
Distribution Is Uniform.
"To answer this We must visualize
as many alternate hypothesis as pos
sible. The most significant and amaz-
ing of the facts regarding cosnlc
rays are first, their uniform distribu-
ton from all points of our celestial
dome, and second the stupendous
values of their energies.
I'VE must look outside our galaxy
for the source of cosmic rays. And
what do we find outside? Only other
ealaxies and the vast reaches of space
between them containing only gases
and cosmic dust" he continued.
DR.. Millikan showed a picture OF a
new star observed last week at Mount
Wilson Observatory in California. This
fare, probably caused by collision be-
tween two suns, happened seven
million years ago. but the light has
Just reached the earth.
The tranformation OF matter, as in
radio-activity of radium, produces
energies on earth that are nearest
those of cosmic rays and from this 1t
may be assumed, he continued, that
these superpower particles from beyond
the milky way originate in some similar
manner.
In Albert Einstein's theory that mass
and energy are different forms of the
same thing, DR.. Millikan found the
key unlocking the secret of cosmic ray
origins. Somehow. in the depths Of
nterstellar space. matter is disintegrat-
ing and creating new matter. and in
this conversion of mass into energy
these rays are given off.
Dr.. Millikan told in closing of a
'cosmic ray telescope" that is just
being put into use by which observers
hope to secure more exact information
as to where these superpower particles
come from.

finest in our tradition unless we ourselves
cherish the chivalrous and valorous deeds
Of those who have made and preserved
us a nation" No nation has more to
be thankful for than we for the heritage
that Is ours; no peoples have shown
such a record Of God-empowered men
as we Of this vast Western empire we
call America Whether we be of the
South or Of the North, of the East or Of
the West, when it comes to Just and
fair appraisal of what we have pro-
duced in terms of character, we have
cause to be proud. What we have Of
wealth and skill and genius Is disclosed
In our accumulated material possessions,
but what we have Of character has been
bequeathed to us by noble men and noble
women and this, despite every disaster
that may come to us, is our priceless
inheritance.
It Is this we would remember on these
recurring anniversaries and it is this
quality Of manhood, yes, and Of woman
hood, we would seek to emulate and re-
produce. These men whom we think of
this month and others of like mold were
made what they were by deep and un-
changing religious convictions. They
played their part on the stage Of a Ma
tions life and played it finely, because
their trust was in God and in His ways
they sought to pursue their course. That
this Nation will resume its proud and
prosperous ways we confidently believe
That it will grow stronger and richer as
the years multiply we also believe. A
fair and reasonable query is, will it grow
proportionately in those elements that
enrich and ennohle charaeter2 Will II
maintain, and that without compromise
those Christian standards that in other
days have been the guarantee OF its Sc
curity and peace?
These are the major questions of this
critical period: they transcend all others
Our remembered yesterdays fill us with
gratitude to Almighty God. Will our
anticipated tomorrows find us still true
to those sterling virtues, those strong
qualities of character that give to the
names of Lincoln and Washington an
enduring place in the pantheon of the
immortals?

servation of land; CD diminution OF ex-
ploitation and wasteful and unscientific
use of national soil resources.
The farmers are to be paid benefits
for meeting conditions laid down by
the Secretary. If they do not meet these
conditions, then it is to be presumed
they will not be paid. What is con-
tract? A contract does not need to be
written to be legal. A legal contract
was defined by Blackstone as IAN agree
ment upon sufficient consideration to
do or not to do particular thing" A
consideration is to pass between the
Secretary, representing the Federal Gov
ernment, and the farmer under the new
farm bill. The farmer, clearly, is to do
or not to do particular thing for that
consideration" A contract is a con-
tract, call 1t by what name you will.
The object Of passing this measure
is to continue payments to the farmers.
incidentally, there seems no doubt that
Secretary Wallace is still intent upon
bringing about crop reStrlctlon IN con-
formity with his theory and policy which
has been in effect since the creation OF
the A. A. A. The continuation OF the
payment of benefits to the farmers, how
ever, at least for the present year, it Is
argued, is the main reason for the enact
ment of this legislation. 1t is said that
it may take longer to bring the question
of the constitutionality of the new law
before the Supreme Court than the next
nine months; perhaps it may take a
year.
So the gamble is under way, with tne
satisfaction of the farmers this year as
the prize. AS in the case OF the quincy
coal act, members Of Congress seem 70
be expected to close their minds to con-
stitutional doubts.

The above is the suggestive title of q
book written by that delightful octo-
genarian and courtly gentleman, Robert
Underwood johnson. In 1t he recounts
the incidents and personalities that he
has known through long and varied
life. 1t is always interesting to view a
period through the eyes OF keen and
discriminating observer. What a memo
rable period q life past 80 covers, and yet
in retrospect how short 1t seems. We
of America who live in this new and
strange age are prone to be unmindful
of the men and incidents that make up
the dramatic record of our history.
February has two anniversaries that
compel us to think of remembered yes
terdays"-the twelfth, the birthday OF
Abraham Lincoln; the twenty-second,
the birthday of George Washington.
While we affectionately recall the serv-
ice they rendered their country and the
trying and tragic periods in which they
lived we may be forgetful Of the obli-
cations they have laid upon us and the
strong qualities in their natures that
made them what they were. Their
LOYALTY and devotion to high ideals, their
willing and sacrifcial service, their sin
integrity, these are the elements that
made them strong, and they are the
elements that in every age constitute
the strength and stability OF the state
and of the nation. To remember their
names and deeds is one thing, to EMU
late their virtues quite another and more
difficult manifestation of our enduring
gratitude.
We have fallen upon a period in our
history where 1t is the cheap and COM
mon practice to appraise the characters
and deeds of the Nations good and great
by low and vulgar standards; to attribute
to them unworthy and selfish motives
and to study with microscopic and critical
eve their more intimate and private lives.

Charles Curtis.

It will be for history to decide wnetner
or not Charles Curtis was great man.
He certainly did not think OF himself
as being set apart from his countrymen
by any special endowment OF fortune
or genius. Rather, he possessed and was
conscious of possessing basic democracy
of spirit. When he came to washington
as a. member of the House of Represent
atives the only pride he felt was that
for the class to which he belonged-the
common people of Nation until recently
unaware of class distinctions.
And proof of his kinship with the
masses was furnished day to day
throughout the remainder of his career.
He maintained to the end the ties OF
fellowship which were the inspiration OF
his life as a statesman. While Senator
and Vice President he earned the af1ec-
ton and the respect of thousands VINO
saw in him-his countenance, his man
ner and his record-a model American
in the best and truest meaning OF that
phrase. Indian blood flowed in his Velns'
he was native to the soil OF Kansas; MS
mind and his heart reflected authentic
INDIGENOUS experience. 1t follows that
the lesson of his rise from poverty and
obscurity to the second highest once
within the gift of the electorate is tnat
of the whole population Of the United
States.
Consider his personality, character and
temperament. Were they not in aggre-
gate the requisite armature OF the
noblest type of citizenship? Earnest
sincere, devoted, hard-working, efnclent'
reliable he was from first to last. And
through these qualities he exemplified
what intelligent foreigners vision as the
principal traits of the American type OF
human being. But, Of course, there also
were other and perhaps more widely uni
versal values included in his compost
ton. For example, he was tolerant ana
liberal to a degree beyond the average
of the Western World. A contemporary,
referring to him as "St. Charles" was
paying tribute to charity easily recog-
nized in his attitude toward mankind in
general-a generous instinct of mercy
which may be traced back to the Cross.
And since Mr.. Curtis was so definitely
related to things which are trammeled
by no boundaries of time, how can it be
said that he is gone? Death has no
victory over such strength and gentle
ness, such honor and integrity. Those
who loved hin-and they were many
part with him for while, mourn for
his absence, weep for his memory. Yet
all that he unpretendingly was and did
remains unaffected by his passing The
glory of the immortal truth needs only
to be understood to be accepted, and
there is no comparable comfort.
