Speech Almost Broken Up.

Gov. Stevenson's reception in
Detroit was q far cry from what
he ran into earlier in the day
whistle-stopping through Michi-
gan's industrial communities. In
most places he drew small crowds,
and those who showed up to hear
his speeches were not wholly en-
thusiastic.
At Saginaw, a large group OF
young hecklers came close to
breaking up his prepared speech
in the town auditorium.
The Governor. obviously an
noyed by the cries of I'VE like
Ike" seemed on the point OF
abandoning his text to deal with
the disturbance. but apparently
thought better Of it.
Later, however, he showed him
self to be no mean hand at hand
ling an unruly crowd.
At Ypsilanti. where he faced an
audience of high school and COL
Ilege students, he recalled the re-
mark Of George Bernard Shaw
that youth is such q wonderful
state; 1t is a pity 1t has to be all
wasted on children"
Another quip at the right mo-
ment was borrowed from IAN old
Quaker preacher named Rufus
Jones, who was addressing q
graduation class one time and he
looked at them and he said: See
ing all of you happy boys and
girls here this morning reminds
me of the time when I tooswas a

AS the Governor was telling OF
the founding by his great-grand-
father of the first teachers train

the audience let out a whoop.

his Shenandoah talk to a castiga-
ton of Gen. Eisenhower, whom
he accused of making farm
speeches that ARE a conglomera-
ton of generalities. platitudes,
half-truths and plain misrepre-
sensations"
Saying that Gen. Eisenhower
was making the "baldest attempt
to steal the Democratic record
that have even SEEN" the Presi-
dent took vigorous exception to
the candidates statement that
the G. o. P. had supported the
farm programs of the last 20
years
He said that Republicans had
voted S to l against the Triple-A
Act of 1888. (which is still our
basic price-support legislation"
He once more accused the Re-
publican dominated 80th Con-
gress of failing to provide suff-
cient grain storage-an issue
which predominated in the 1913
election-and said. 1T would have
killed the price support program
deader than a door nail if the
Democratic 81st Congress had not
changed the law in a hurry.
Some Republicans now are
telling big lies" about that issue,
the President said, referring plain
~ to G. o. P. allegations that the
storage-space shortage was myth
cooked up by Mr.. Truman to win
reelection.
Points to Opposition.
The President also said that
Republicans are against the new
rural telephone program. rural
electrification and farm Corpora
tives, and he cited Senate and
House opposition also to provi-
sion for enlarged price supports.
Next the President accused the
G. o. P. and Gen. Eisenhower OF
taking at least four different po-
sitions on price supports for the
five basic crops-corn, cotton
wheat, tobacco and peanuts.
The law guarantees 80 per cent
Of parity, which is a figure de-
signed, roughly, the give the farm
er a return for his products
equivalent to the cost Of the things
he buys.
"And now the Republican can
didate. either in ignorance or ir
deceit, has taken up the old, dis.
credited battle cry of enslavine
the farmer. He seems to think
you are wearing chains" the
President jibed.
"Such talk is downright silly
It insults the intelligence of farm
men and women. You've lives

Points to Platforms.

Electricity Enables
Ear 10 Hear, Meeting
OF Scientists Told
BY the Associated Press

BELFAST, Northern Ireland
Sept. 10.-An American scientist
came up today with a theory to
explain one of biology's most
battling mysteries-how the ear
can hear.
DR.. Hallowell Davis of the Cen
trail Institute for the Deaf, ST.
Louis, said his new theory also
would shed light on the way other
living organs respond to me-
Chanical stimulus.
The human ear is natures
microphone. Dr. Davis says. Min
ute movements in the ear-no
bigger than the diameter of a
single hydrogen atom - modify
electric currents in the way a
variable electric resistance in a
carbon microphone modifies a
steady flow of electricity.
Read at Closing Session.
DR.. Davis address to the clos
ing session of the 1852 annual
meeting of the British Association
for the Advancement of Science
was hailed by other researchers
as highlight of the weeklong
convention.
Psychologists in the past Simply
have ignored the question of how
hair cells in the ear convert me-
chanical energy into electricity,
DR.. Davis said.
According to his theory the in
ner ear has it's own electric bat
terry and there is always a regular
flow of current passing through.
Some of this current leaks through
the hair cells. When sound causes
vibrations in the inner ear the
hairs on the end of the hair cells
get pushed around-just as the
granules of carbon inside a tele-
phone microphone are moved me-
chanically when a voice speaks
into the instrument.
DR.. Davis argued the movement
OF the nalrS brings about a change
of resistance to the current and
that this change is sufficient to
trigger off the relatively large
amount of energy needed to send
impulses through nearby nerve
cells.
Cells Act as Valves.
"On this hypothesis the source
of the energy that stimulates the
nerve is not the original acoustic
energy" DR.. Davis said, but the
hair cells act as valves to control
a flow of current which already is
present.
Nature, who invented a system
of echo-location to guide bath in
flight long before we humans ever
thought of radar, did not overlook
the possibility of a special pre-
amplifier to put in the ear ahead
of the standard repeater units of
the nerve fiberS."
One of the main points of the
