This Is an old belief, known in
biology as "telegony." 1t probably
originated from the opinion, conf
monty held by animal breeders, that
the father leaves such an indelibls
impression on the mother that later
offspring by a different father will
bear the characteristics Of the for
mer sire. Thus, dog breeders pretty
generally are convinced that high
bred female who has borne pups to
an underlined dog is ruined for
breeding purposes, since she is Ii
able at any time to bear ill-bred
pups.
Many naturalists, such as Oar
win, Agassiz and Romanes, sub
scribed to this idea, but Wcissmann.
the great research worker on hered-
ity, said that "only the confirmation
Of the tradition by methodica. in
vestigation :. could raise telegony
to the rank of fact" and this dec
laration started experimental in
vestigation, which proved the fall
sity of the doctrine.
A famous case was that reported
at the Royal Society By L5rA Mor-
ton. A chestnut mare, G1taz: ing
hybrid offspring BY :. "a
striped horse-like 5i.i. South
America), produced. Ill black
Arabian horse, thu Its which
showed number - stripes. This
case was carefully studied, forever,
and it was pointed out that stripes
are not infrequently seen il high
grade Arabian horses without ad-
mixture of other strains.
Experiments by Ewart and other
biologists have shown in the case
Of many birds and mammals that
no offspring inherit any Of the
characters from previous mates Of
the mother.
There is, therefore, nc Diologic
reason why a woman should not
marry her deceased husbands
brother.

New Japanese Peace
0vertures Reported
Rejected by China
Suitable Guarantee
Must Be Made First,
Defenders Soy
BY A. r. STEELE,

Chicago Daily News Foreign Correspondent.
HONG KONG, Oct. 81 am in
formed by reliable authority here
that the latest japanese peace over
lures to Chungking, though more
generous than any submitted before
have been fatty rejected by the
Chinese government The proposals
presented through an unofficial but
authorized Intermediary, reputedly
promised the eventual withdrawal
of the Japanese Army from prac-
tically all parts of China, south of
the Great Wall, as a basic condi-
tion of peace.
However, the Chinese have no
faith in Japanese pledges and have
declared that no peace without suit
able guarantees can be considered
All along Generalissimo Chang
Kai-Shek has maintained that the
japanese Army withdrawal must
precede peace negotiations as evi-
dence Of japanese good faith.
The latest offer came about the
time of the tripartite agreement,
and just about ends the japanese
hopes Of weaving China from the
democracies with tempting offers.
There was time, following the sur
render of France and the closing OF
the Burma road, when there was
considerable sentiment among the
Chinese for chucking the democra-
cies and throwing in their lot with
the totalitarian states. Develop
ments since then have swung the
pendulum in the other direction.
The spirit Of resistance has now
been greatly stimulated. AS yet
there is no indication of japanese
offensive against Chungking or
Yunnan. In fact, some important
Japanese are advocating the with
drawal of the army from the less
vital areas and the consolidation of
the japanese position in a STRATEGIC
region in order better to cope with
the complex international situation.

ing on to the flag, trying to hold
1t up In the air.
1t was a simple thing and I do
not know why 1t was so vivid.
But when I saw 1t I could see
clearly what that flag meant. I
saw clearly what 1t means to
every one of us who have held it..
This is what I think it means:
II means freedom. 1t means
that men shall live together on
this soil as free men, holding in
their own hands the power of
government.
1t means strength. We must
have within us. and we must ex-
ercise, the power to make things.
We must produce. We must build.
We must be prosperous. We must
be confident of our arts and of
our enterprises.
It means new horizons. As
long as that flag waves, America
must grow.
And finally, 1t means good faith,
Under that flag we must keep our
promises-our promises to our
friends, our promises to the peo-
pie. BY our good faith toward
one another we can fill all the
obligations of that flag. BY our
faith we shall hold it up above
the jostling crowd.
That is what the flag means.
And when we make that meaning
clear, to ourselves and to all the
world, then, and not until then,
can we be confident of peace.

CHICAGO, Oct. 23.-Wendell
Willkie, Republican candidate for
President, went on record here last
night in favor of more effective aid
to Great Britain in her present
struggle.
He made the statement in the
course of another in the series of
radio question programs. in which
he answers some of the queries put
to him in mail received from all
parts of the country. Answering
one of these questions, Mr.. Willkie
said:
I'VE, the people of America. are
in favor of giving aid to Great
Britain. In fact, I am in favor Of
giving more effective aid to Great
Britain than she is getting from the
New Deal And it is to give that
laid, as well as for our own prepared
ness, that I insist that our indus
trial machine go into high gear at
once"
What is the difference, then,
Mr.. Willkie, between your foreign
policy and that of the administra-
tion?" the questioner asked. Mr.
Willkie replied:
"One difference is my determina-
ton to stay out of war. I have
real fear that this administration
is heading for War-and I am against
our going to war and will do all
that T can tO avoid il. The second
difference is in action rather than
in words. I believe if I were elected,
that my administration would get
the job of preparedness and defense
done more efficiently and in less
time than this administration will
ever get the job done"
In answering another question
about the third-term principle. Mr..
Willkie made known his intention,
if elected, to work for constitu-
tional amendment to prohibit more
than two terms.

6. B. CorteIyou, ST.,
Financier in Cabinet
Three Times, Is Dead
Confidunte of Presidents
Also Became Head

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
HUNTINGTON, N. Y, Oct. 23.-
George Bruce Cortelyou, ST., con-
f1dante of three Presidents, holder
of three cabinet posts and one Of
the Nations outstanding financiers,
was found dead in his bed today.
He was 78.
The former president Of the Con-
solidated Gas Co. of New York,
which became one Of the largest
and most important utilities Of the
country during his administration,
Mr.. Cortelyou had been retired for
the last five years.
He began his governmental career
in 1891 as a private secretary to
the Fourth Assistant Postmaster
General. Later he was stenogra-
pher, executive clerk, confidential
clerk and secretary to three Presi-
dents-Cleveland, Mckinley and
Theodore Roosevelt-and under the
last held the cabinet posts of Secre-
tary of Labor and Commerce, Post
master General and Secretary OF the
Treasury.
Had War Message in His Care.
Among important and historic
documents intrusted to his care was
President McKinley's message to
Congress asking for a declaration
of war with Spain. Delivery of the
message to Congress was withheld
for some time after its completion
pending efforts to reach a settle
ment with the Spanish government
relative to the independence Of
Cuba.
Mr.. Cortelyou was with President
Mckinley when the President was
shot by an assassin at Buffalo, N. Y,
and remained beside his stricken
chiefs bedside night and day until
his death.
Born in New York City, July 26,
1862, Mr.. Cortleyou was the son of
Peter c. and Rose Seary Cortelyou.
He was a descendant of Jacques
Cortelyou, Huguenot who came to
this country in 1887. His ancestors
played prominent part in the Co.
lonial and Revolutionary history of
New York State and later were
recognized as successful business
men.
Attended Georgetown.
Mr.. CortleyOu received his ac-
ademic education at Hampstead In
stitute and the State Normal School
at Westf1eld, Mass. He then entered
the New England Conservatory of
Music at Boston, intending to pre-
pare for career in music.
After several years he returned to
New York to continue his musical
studies under private tutors, mean
while pursuing a course in stenog-
raphy merely as an adjunct to his
general education. He was so sue
cessful as a stenographer from the
start that he decided to follow that
profession rather than music.
When he came to Washington Mr..
Cortelyon took up the study of law
at Georgetown University, was
graduated in 1895 and in a graduate
course earned the degree of LIN.
Later the degree of doctor Of laws
was conferred upon Mr.. Cortelyou
by Georgetown University, Kentucky
Wesleyan and the University of Il
linois.

CHICAGO, Oct. 23.-Follo,Ding
is the prepared tert OF speech
By Wendell L. Willkie, Republican
presidential candidate, at the
Chicago Stadium last night:
Evening star., 1940-10-23

IldU was lliC pl OlliloC. ouI oll
July 3, 1888. Mr.. Roosevelt killed
the London Economic Conference.
He repudiated the progress of
stabilization which he himself
had instructed our delegates to
present.
The third-term candidate,
when he was running for his
first term, said: Il propose to
use this position of high re-
sponsibility to discuss up and
down the country - the duty
of reducing taxes - that I
pledge you. and nothing have
said in this campaign transcends
in importance this covenant with
the taxpayers of this country"
That was the promise.
But under his administration
the Federal tax burden has been
trebled. Taxes have been lifted
to levels that have been exceeded
only in one year, during the
World War.
The third-term candidate, when
he was running for his first
term, promised to put an end to
unemployment. He promised the
revival of business. He prom
ised economy in Government ex-
penditures. And when he was
running for his second term he
reiterated those earlier promises.
But not one of those promises
has been fulfilled.
Recently the third-term candi-
date has accused me of delib-
erately falsifying the record.
Misstatement Of Facts
Would be Charitable Act.
That seems to me a strange ac-
cusation. From what have seen
OF the record, and I have studied
it closely, any misstatement of
the facts would be a charitable
act.
But I want to review the rec
ord. want to review it with this
point in mind. No statesman, no
matter how far-sighted. can fore
see everything. Maybe the break
ing of those early promises
worked out for the good of all
of us. 1 do not say that that
would excuse the bad faith. But
it might induce us to be lenient.
Beginning in 1929 there was
worldwide depression. 1t af-
fected every nation on earth.
Now we have figures showing
the degree of industrial recovery
from that depression by 18 lead
ing nations up to the outbreak
of the war These figures show
that in revival of industrial pro-
duction, the United States stood
18th on that list of l8 nations.
1t was next to the bottom of the
list. Even Latvia did better.
Furthermore, we have just COM
pleted the first decade in our his
tory in which we have failed to
grow. Never before has that hap
pened in America. But while we
were thus Stagnant, almost every
other nation in the world reached
and passed the levels of 1929.
Failure to recover has meant
terrible loss to American work.
ers. In the seven years before
the New Deal, they were paid an
averages of more than $21, 1,000,-
100000 year. In the seven
years under the New Deal, they
have been paid an average of
less than $17OO0,O ,OO0,0 900 a year.
They lost $4,500.000,0O every
year-a pay cut for all of labor
of 81 per cent.
And the farmers took a cut
an average cut-of more than
s1,250,0O0,0OO a year. and that
includes all Government pay
ment under the New Deal.
Now, that is all on the rec
ord. Nobody is falsifying any
thing. The truth is that the
New Deals failure has cost labor
and farmers billions upon billions
or dollars.
I know that my opponent will
reply that during some of that
time the nations of Europe were
building armaments. That is
