this study is also incidental to the
original ones, but it is a primary pub
lie health question. 1t has to do
with what we call biogenetics. That
is, the study Of hereditary character
istics."
In this latter connection, much in
teresting work has been done gen.
orally by bombarding the microscopic
parts Of the chromosomes, known as
genes" with the radium rays and
the X-ray. Grapefruit has been made
to flower in six weeks in the labora-
tories of the General Electric Co.,
whereas its normal period for flower
ing is six years. Likewise new forms
Of tomatoes, hemp plant and sorghum
have been produced simply by subject
ing the germ plasm to radium or X
rays. The possibilities of controlling
such factors in the human chromo-
somes as produce idiocy, feeble
mindedness and other Unbeatable def
ciencies open up new fields to the
geneticist who dreams of controlling
the evolution Of future species.
THE radium miracle that works the
change in living entities is an
element that was discovered by Prof.

found that after uranium had been
removed from certain ores the residue
had an emanation of far greater in
tenSity than that of uranium itself.
Making study Of this phenomenon,
the experimenters stumbled upon
radium.
In nature, radium is found in the
periodic system along with the heaviest
members of alkaline earth metals,
such as calcium, strontium and
| barlum, so that from a chemical view
point it possesses the same properties
as these. What is known as a radio
element" is one that has the power
to emit certain particles that have
been called, for identification, by the
Greek alphabet letters Alpha, Beta
and Gamma
There is one great stumbling block,
a consideration that must always be
borne in mind, DR.. Levine points out,
and that is that so far our scientific
G-men have discovered no method for
controlling the proceedings. A def
mite, clear-cut change in the micro
organism is obtained, yet the appar-
emily same procedure under appar-
emily identical conditions may yield
variants of another character or none
at all. 1t is hoped, nevertheless, that
the great power for conversion of life
forms will be brought under complete
control. When that time comes science
will be able to say much about the
application Of radium or X-rays as a
possible means of ridding the earth

fore the public should be the means

vestigation, find nine out Of ten to be

And so the good people of Wash
ington are being cheated Of hundreds
of thousands of dollars by these vul-
lures who prey on human misery to
make a handsome living. Charity
may "cover multitude of sins" but
it also feeds multitude of racketeers
in our Nations Capital.
Over period of five months the
writer has come in contact with at
least so solicitors who never collect,
for themselves, less than $40 a day
one of whom actually stated that he
never ceases operating until he has
$50 in his pocket each day.
And there are at least as many
more carrying on their crooked work
throughout the District. 1t can,
therefore, be conservatively estimated
that we'll over a quarter of a million
dollars found its way to the pockets
Of these charity chiselers during the
past year.
It is indeed a pity that all of this
money could not be directed toward
the proper channels, where so much
good would come of it.
Just imagine the assistance which
could have been given the many needy
families in Washington had this sum
been placed in the hands of our sew
eral welfare agencies.

waters of a cranberry bog. Even be-
fore he hit the water, however, the
jumper went through series of hair
raising experiences and hazards.
The jump was made by Aviation
Chief Machinist's Mate McCarroll
senior instructor at the school, to test
his ability to carry the Debated and
packed raft. This raft was rolled and
packed in snap-fastened container
only l8 inches long and less than Z
inches in diameter 1t weighed only
10 pounds complete, including bottle
Of carbon dioxide for initiating the
raft
Since it had been computed that
such weight would increase to a load
of 400 pounds at the time the para
| chute was cracked" careful tests
were made with lighter loads before
McCarroll test-jumped the complete
raft.
The final test jump was made at
10 miles per hour from a Navy tor
pedo airplane at an altitude of $500
feet. McCarroll planned to make a
| 5OO-foot free drop with the raft in
his left hand to determine his ability
to manipulate the bundle during the
free drop and to hold it when the
| parachute opened.
Wind Swings Around"
The wind was from the southwest
at $500 feet, but swung completely
around the compass and was from
the northeast at the ground. Nc
! Carroll made allowance for the change
| in wind direction on the basis of a
500-foot free drop. He jumped, ex-
pecting to land in the center of the
station field.
During the first 200 feet of his fall
he moved the raft at arms length in
all directions with no difficulty. After
falling about 400 feet he thrust the
raft sidewise into the air stream, an
action he had cause to regret at once
| His high rate of descent and the
leverage exerted by the raft in this
| position threw his body into a violent
axial spin. He quickly pulled the raft
package back to his side but the spin
continued He knew that to open
his parachute while his body was in
this spin would mean certain death
due to the shroud lines winding UP
and preventing the opening of the
parachute.
In desperation he thrust the raft
overhead at arms length to check
the spinning-tumbling action which
now prevailed" it was stated in the
report. This movement produced
gratifying results, as McCarroll saw
the ground gradually take its normal
form and outline instead of being
just a blur of rapidly passing land
scape.
| Five Turns in Shroud Lines.
Little altitude remained. McCar-
roll had no choice but to pull his
rip cord and hope that the residual
| spinning action of his body would not
dangerously wind up the shroud lines.
The parachute opened with a crack,
checking his high rate of descent. He
glanced up and counted five turns in
the shroud lines-three is considered
dangerous.
He looked down and was surprised
to see himself drifting to the south
ward toward flooded cranberry
bog, feet of water covered with !
inch of ice, but at that moment look
ing like lake mile deep. His long

while and only very special TAPS
are called on the telephone.
For instance, there are a few we'll
known Washington gentlemen who,
having been reared on Southern
plantations, have a kindly feeling
toward the Negro race.
These gentlemen are called upon
annually to support a non-existent
Negro charity, and each year they
contribute handsomely.
Another scheme which always pro-
duces results is called the Embassy
touch" 1t, too, is strictly 100 per cent
for the solicitor and is worked in the
following manner:
A reception having been given by
Ambassador or Minister --, the
society columns of the Sunday
papers will invariably carry the names
Of those in attendance. These are
scanned carefully by the crooked
solicitor and few days later the fol-
lowing pitch" will be made:
Good morning, Mrs. Doe, this is
Comdr. Jack Bigham I had the
pleasure of meeting you at the Am
bassador's reception, on Tuesday, as
you no doubt recall. I dislike both
ering you, Mrs. Doe, but I was Won
dering If you could possibly assist us
this year in our drive for our Navy
Relief Fund AS you of course know
1t is a really worth while cause and il
you can assist 1t will certainly be ap-
preciated"
Poor Mrs. Doe does not know what
the Navy Relief Fund" is all about
but she will be only too happy to
| contribute to the wonderful work." and
the solicitor, after thanking her pro-
fusely, tells her that one of the boys
from the club will stop by and pick
up her check some time that after
noon. And, if she is going out or will
be resting, won't she be kind enough
to leave it with the butler" It is
always desirable that contribution be
left with the butler, thus avoiding the
possibility that Mrs. Doe may wish a
little further information regarding
this Navy Relief Fund and may ask
an emparassing question or two of the
boy from the club"
The average "hit" on this pitch"
is IS per cent, in contributions rang
ing from IS to 500.
RUT now, on the other hand, there
are many propositions directed by
promoters which are strictly legiti-
mate, the bulk Of the funds raised 60
ing to the organization for which they
are intended, but these campaigns
are conducted in such an open anC
clean manner that it should not be
difficult for the business man to de-
termine at once that they are bona
| fide.
But the trouble lies in the fact that
the average business man does not take
time to inquire into the legitimacy ot
phone call for charity, will succumt
to the smooth line of the solicitor anc
contribute to what he believes is 6
just cause to aid humanity.
If he would only insist that his
check be mailed and not given to the
! pickup man" much of this chiseline
in the name of sweet charity" woulc
Immediately cease, because the wise
solicitor, not wishing to offend Uncle
Sam, will not make use Of the mails
