Scientists Experimenting
With Radioactive Carbon
On Plants
BY PAUL F. ELLIS
United Press Science Writer

NEW YORK, June rs - W.H -
An experiment with radioactive
carbon made by four California
scientists led to speculation to-
night that orange trees with sweet
err oranges, apple trees with
sweeter apples and tomato vines
with better tomatoes may be a
forthcoming scientific miracle.
The experiment, reported IN
Science magazine, was conducted
at the University Of California,
Berkeley, tby Drs. S. AronoH, A.
Benson, W. z. Hassid and M.
Calvin.
In this postwar experiment with
atomic energy, the California
scientists used barley seedlings
which were grown to an average
height of 6 or 7 inches. They were
then taken to a laboratory and d.
vided into groups.
In one group, the primary and
secondary roots of the plants
were removed. In the other, the
secondary roots were cut OH.
Those with the roots shipped Oh
contained more leaf material thar
those with only the secondary
roots shipped.
The plants were then placed in
a chamber and permitted tc
''breathe," or photosyntheslze, the
radioactive carbon.
This carbon, which is also used
in medical research, was used
as a tracer, and the California
scientists were able to follow its
route in the plants through use
of the Geiger counter. This is a
delicate electronic instrument that
picks UP radioactivity.
1t was found that almost hall
of the carbon, IS per cent, went
TO the sugar substance of the
plants which had more leaf ma.
terial and less roots. The amount
was about Is per cent in those
plants retaining roots. The re
naming carbon was distributed
in smaller a mounts among

enjoyment. The father paid with
his life.
There have been many such in
cidents in late months. The press
has been full of them. They are all
characterized by a cold-blooded
calIousness on the part of the youth.
You probably remember the case of
the teen-age boy who killed both
parents for some fancied wrong,
and then went down town and at
tended a movie with one of his pals.
And while the boys were enjoying
the picture, the two parents lay
stretched out dead in their own
blood at home.
And now the public is being re-
galed by another one of these grisly
affairs This latest disposal of un-
wanted parents has to do with the
murder of wealthy Walter Overell
and his wife, while on their yacht
in a California harbor Their II
year-old daughter, Buelah Louise,
and her fiance. George r. Gollum,
81, are being held charged with the
murder of the girls parents Evil
dence indicates that the elder Over
ellis were beaten to death and then
their yacht blown up with dynamite
in an attempt to hide the crime.
The girl is a freshman in college
and Gollum a student in the same
institution.
OF course, it may turn out that
this young couple are wholly in
nocent of the CHASTITY crime with
which they are charged. They in
sist on their innocence. No definite
proof has yet been given to connect
them with the killings, although Of
ficers state they have a case against
them. But this latest affair is so
in line with what has been a COM
mon occurrence in late months that
il causes one to wonder whether or
not this will eventually be proven
to be another one of those horrible
slayings of parents by heartless
child.
What's to be done about this prob
lem of juvenile delinquency that
has the nation worried? The recent
Montana legislature enacted a law
providing for the appointment of a
commission to study this growing
tendency toward crime by the youth
OF the nation The bill first car
ried an appropriation to defray the
expenses of such a study but it was
later amended to eliminate the
money provision Another law was
enacted making l6-year-olds as fully
responsible for serious crimes as l8-

Isn't There Too Much

We have open and closed seasons
on most of our game species, and

refer to the all-time open sea-
son on parents. Perhaps you. too,
have noticed how common it is to-
day for some teen age youngster to
take it into his or her head to do
away with one or both of their
parents. Sometimes the excuse is,
when the father is the victim. that
ne was beating up the mother and
the boy killed him to protect the
mother That might be a possible
justification for the tragic action,
if murder is ever justifiable. But
too often the urge to kill springs
from an anger caused by the par
ent's refusal to let the spoiled brat

year-olds had heretofore been. This
enforcing officers because of the
growing seriousness of the crimes
committed by mere boys and girls
and the impossibility to make them
properly accountable for tn eir
crimes under the former laws.
Many causes are responsible for
this condition of affairs. The most
commonly heard explanation righ.
now lays the blame on American
parents. They are charged with
falling down on their duty to prop
erly rear their children. But what
causes the parents of today to act
that way2 Isn't il easy to discover
the answer? It's mighty difficult to
have children with proper ideas OF
right and wrong when the parents
have no standards in those respects.
For the past is or 20 years there
has been a most noticeable let-down
in American standards That, too,
has been due to numerous causes.
We have sown to the wind. We
are now reaping the whirlwind.
What strange quirks the human
mind sometimes takes. Consider the
case of the two wealthy Collyer
brothers of New York city. You
undoubtedly have read of the police
breaking into their dirty, debris
ridden mansion in that city and
finding one of the brothers sitting
dead in a chair. The other one
had not been located at the time
this is written
These men were wealthy and
highly educated. One at least was
a lawyer with an LII. D. degree
from Columbia university. But for
the past 40 years they had lived as
recluses in their city mansion. It
now turns out that they lived in
repulsive filth and with none of the
conveniences modern people are
supposed to enjoy.
What causes men of high educa-
tion and talent to degenerate into
such pitiable specimens of the
human race? What has soured them
on life? Here we have two men
with ususual training and talent
Two men with apparently every
opportunity for happy, useful and
successful lives; opportunities to do
good; opportunities to benefit their
fellowmen; opportunities to live
happy and well-rounded lives. And
they waste it all
I suppose a psychiatrist will have
a ready explanation for all this. To
the laymen it looks like the sense
less wasting of what could have
been two useful lives.
The Montana legislature, in it,
attempt to raise needed revenue,
put tax on punchboards and
thereby legalized them 1t would
have taken, similar action on slot
machines had not such a bill been
killed by the senate by the close
margin of two votes
The Western news., 1947-03-27

The Washington legislature also
passed laws regulating punchboards
end slot machines. But the punch
board bill has been vetoed by Gov
ernor Mon c. Wallgren. It is in
teresting to read his reasons for
disappearing the measure.
Wallgren, according to press re-
ports, scored DunchboardS as being
particularly attractive to minors and
to many adults who can i'll afford
to indulge in such gambling" He
said:
This bill may be construed as a
legalizing and licensing of punch
boards, which are purely and SIM
ply gambling devices, particularly
attractive to minors They also at
tract the patronage of many adults
who can i'll afford to indulge in
such gambling. Since becoming gov
ernor of this state I never have
sponsored nor originally approved
bill which would directly or in
directly sanction the use of gambling
devices. ! do not propose to do so
now.
Il am fully aware of the fact
that the state is in urgent need OF
revenue. but l do not believe that
we are in such dire need of revenue
that we must legalize an undoubt-
cdly questionable business" the veto
message said. Until such time as
the courts shall hold that punch
boards are not gambling devices, 1
feel that the state should not grant
direct licenses or implied protec-
ton"
