evidence of predominant cerebral

Movements Are Hereditary
The study Of the sleep of twins,
making these observations, Is
astonlshingly confirmatory of the
fact that most Of our habits and
movements are hereditary and be-
yond our control. Twins tend to
go to sleep within the same period
Of time and to wake up almost at
the same moment, even though
they do not sleep in the same bed
or even in the same room. They
exhibit the same habits during
sleep. Both Of them tend to be-
long to the cerebral or the axial
type Of sleepers; both Of them
tend to be teeth-gnashers. SOM
nambulists or bed-wetters. Some
people wake suddenly with a start,
others gradually, and twins are
likely to have the same habits.
To read these reports is quite
uncanny and makes one feel rather
fatallStlc.
Other recent studies in twins
have concerned the appearance of
allergy in twins. It is well known
that allergy. such as hay fever and
similar conditions, are hereditary.
Hay fever occurs in from z to 10
per cent Of the population. In hay
fever families the percentage may
be as high as SO per cent but in
twins this percentage rises. If
one twin has hay fever, the other
twin will have it in from 80 to 100
per cent Of cases. This also is
true of migraine or sick headache.
In many twins who have asthma
due to food, they are both allergic
to the same food.

MAGIC IN WASHINGTON
(From the New York Tines

There are good many people in Washington
who apparently believe that the time has come for
the President to draw another rabbit from the hat
which produced so many rabbits during his first

the county, Some of them think that granting a
large subsidy to the railways is the right way to
go about it, Others want another experiment with

more monetary manipulation Of the kind that was
tried in 1888 and 1884
The sponsors of all these plans. and many
others have one faith in common. They believe
that thete is some legerdemain by which the Gov
cfnment can suddenly create prosperity.
There is no reason to believe that sober mind
ed business men share this faith or that they are
looking now 10 the Government for an act Of
magic What they hope to find in Washington is
very simple thing; more Of the same spirit Of
cooperation which the Senate Finance Committee

MIND OVER MATTER

Mind surely rules over matter,
Christ proved it here on this earth.
Sitting relaxed in the Silence,
Will prove TO you its worth.
AS you gaze up at the planets
That surround you all about.
You may be sure that those who
study
Have no room in mind for doubt
Reaping or sowing never forget
Thoughts, and actions return,
In following the steps of the Mas
ter,
Material things are of no concern.
Try to reflect in your daily life
Forgiveness and thoughts of love,
That the peace that paSseth un-
derStanding
May come as on wings of a dove.

DECISIVE ACTION IMPERATIVE

July the Fourth, slated to be one of
the red-letter days in Key Vests history,
will soon be upon us. It is perfectly
obvious that the time is all too short in
which to arrange major celebration such
as that planned for the formal opening of
the Overseas Highway; yet relatively lit
tie work has been done to further the OBJ
servation al ~ -, -
The Citizen is glad to note that John
Costar has called meeting of the gen
eral arrangements committee to be held
next Monday night. In the meantime, it is
reported, the names of several men quail
fled to manage the celebration and to pro-
vide the needed spark plug in program
ming the event will be selected for pre-
sentation to the general committee Mon
day.
The general committee should take
determined action Monday night, name
the manager Of the celebration and direct
him to get busy. If he is the right kind OF
man he will brook no delay, keep after the
subcommittee and see that they function
effectively. The most important sub-com-
mittee, the financial group, has been
named. They have decided that $4,000
is the minimum amount that wilfbe needed
to finance the celebration. .s''5a
That committee should appear at
once before the county commission, the
city council and various civic organizations
and make its appeal for funds. The re-
sponse should be just as liberal as possible.
In the case Of the county there seems to be
ample money in the treasury to make a
really generous allotment to the celebra-
ton fund. The county will get it back and
more, for the celebration will help our
people in the payment of their forthcom-
ing taxes.
The Citizen believes that one of the
most serious conditions confronting the
city in connection with the celebration is
the housing problem. We believe that
another subcommittee, housing commit
tee, should be named at once to start
survey of the city to determine where
rooms may be available and to attempt to
work out some fair price that should be
charged visitors when they come here to
help us celebrate. 1t is certain that every
room in the city not now occupied will be
needed to house the incoming horde of old
Key Westers and others who will be here
during the celebration period. The hous-
ing committee should know the exact loca-
ton of every available room, the number
that each will hold and the price that
should be charged.
Every citizen interested in making this
real celebration should get back of the
general committee and render every aid
possible

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.


The Bonneville hydro-electric

River, is the second egg to be
Matched in the governments pow

AS one listened to the stories
its promoters told of the blessings
/ it would bring to the Northwest,
one almost became hypnotized
with the thought that this great
section of the United States had
never seen electric lights. Then
when the spell binding ended one
suddenly remembered there had
been electric lights and power in
the Northwest ever since ore
could remember, and that, strange
as it may seem, Bonneville could
be washed out completely and not
a wheel would stop turning or a
light stop burning in all the
country tributary to it.
The people of seven counties in
Oregon were asked at recent
special election to vote for tax
exempt power district to use tax
exempt Bonneville power, in COM
petition with the power service
they already enjoy from highly
taxed private companies. which
taxes help support their schools,
roads and all public activity, in
Guiding paying for Bonneville.
And what happened The spell
must have been broken. BY a
majority of nearly two to one,
the people of the seven counties
voted not to saddle themselves
with debt to duplicate electric
service they already enjoy with
out public debt. and incidentally
destroy one of their create S, tax
assets, private electric companies.

WIDLIFE IN THE KEYS


Editors Note: This article

the first of a series on the in

The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1938-05-05

The average resident of Key
West probably does not notice the
.derth of birds along the highway
up the Keys but. d stranger, in
'terested in birds and accustomed
to seeing them, would be some
what shocked by a scarcity of
bird life which he would be at a
loss to explain.
The truth is that Key West has
been careless in the matter of her
birds. A natural resource, which
would now bring in rich returns,
has been squandered heedleSsly
through the years, and there have
been few to raise their voices in
remonstrance. Fortunately it is
still possible to bring back the
birds to the Keys and SO give
them an added beauty and inter-
est, both for the home dweller
and the stranger within our gates,
but in order to do SO it will be
necessary for us to join the rest
of the country in the keen and
active interest in conservation
which. has swept over it. 1t is not
enough to merely decry wanton
destruction in the abstract, Key
West has a very definite need of
a concrete conservation program.

which last is a force few human
beings care to fight for any length

Wiidlife Value
The new highway will bring in
hundreds of people who are very
much alive to the value of wild
life, and who will expect to find
it in land ideally suited to its
existence. When they do not find
it is it not possible that they may
question the friendliness of peo-
pie who will not let their native
birds live?
The killing of birds, some of
them among the most beautiful
in America, still goes on in the
Keys, though at a diminishing
rate. we believe, but Key West
should not leave to more or less
alien agencies the entire problem
of conserving her peculiar herit-
age. We do not believe that she
will do SO. There are a few far

as the Maeinot line. but west OF the
Rhine they are perhaps sufficient to
permit German defense against the
French to be made with a minimum
OF divisions. thus releasing the
German main force for a CZecho-
slovakian campaign. Germany, ac-
cording to this view, means murder
now and will not be deferred by even
the certainty OF Russian as
sistance to the Czechs
Moreover although France no long
er is divided on the question of full
filling its treaty obligations to the
Czechs along any party lines. there
are still enough personalities in
France who prefer submission to con-
flict, notably former Premiers Pierre
Laval and Pierre Etienne Flandin
and even the Radical Socialist leader,
ex-Premier Camille Chautemps
This may encourage the Germans
to hope for French submission. Per-
haps these persons, the Germans may
think, could limit French assistance
to the CZechS to a mere gesture Of
mobilization. for unless the French
would really march" the Soviets
might not.
One certain thing is that the Ger
mans will not attack the Czechs if 1t
means facing coalition in which
Great Britain supports France, Rus
sia and other smaller states as can be
perSladod IN. ioi,,
Reich Insure Of Italy.
In the first place, the Germans are
not sure of the Italians. They fear
lest the latter might conceivably be
bought off" by African concessions
from France and Britain. Without
Italian assistance it would only be \
question of time until Germany would
be starved and checked and neither
Poland nor Hungary would dare to
assist the Germans against Great
Britain.
Therefore it is universally consid-
cred certain that the Germans will not
move if they are persuaded that the
British intend to fight for Czecho-
slovakian integrity. The Czech ques-
ton. therefore, depends upon Great
Britain and may be settled today.

and. depending on the height from
which 1t is started, may or may not
60 over the rim and hit the mass of
other billiard balls in the center. II
1t does get over the rim-or, carrying
out the analogy with sub-atom physics,
into the nucleus Of the atom-it may
do any one of three things. 1t may
have such force that it will 60 straight
across the table and over the opposite
rim into space again. 1t may itself
remain in the nucleus but knock
out one OF the billiard balls already
there Or it may cause one ball to hit
against another and that against
still another. etc. so that apparently
nothing happens except a distribution
of energy through the whole mass.
Upon which Of the three possibili-
ties actually happens depends whether
a new form Of matter is created which
remains stable or whether a new radio
active substance comes into being from
which billiard ball Is shot In turn
perhaps eventually against a cancer
cell. The new picture, it is predicted
by scientists here, promises to be i'm
portant for the physics of this gener-
alton as has been Prof Bohr's plane
tary electron theory for the past gener-
alton.
Creation Of New Elements.
The paradox comes in imagining
one of the sub-atomic billiard balls
being as big as the whole mass of
which 1t forms a part, and even the
advanced physicist has to take this
on faith, for the sub-atomic world is
something vastly different from the
world which can be known through
the senses and there can be no
analogy. Mathematic demands It,
But having laid down this thesis,
Prof. Bohr proceeds to draw still an
other physical picture of the crea-
ton Of new radioactive elements,
such as may constitute one of the
outstanding scientific discoveries Of
the age
Imagine, he says. thermometer
stuck into one OF these piles of bill
lard balls constituting the atomic
nucleus. Imagine a projectile from
the outside hitting this like a bullet
fired from a pistol 1t would create
a degree Of heat such as would make
astronomers jealous-something like
10000, 100000 degrees centigrade.
This would tend to vaporize the
nucleus and some OF its constituent
particles would escape like steam. So
the projectiles shot from radio
active element may be compared to
steam from tea kettle. 1t is in
terms like this that the worlds
physicists probably will be thinking
for the next generation or so.
