There is a growing suspicion as the investigation is lengthened out that polities is rising to the forefront in this body.

The White House sent a telegram in response to one of congratulation, quite an ordinary thing, and another asked the publisher of one of the largest papers in the capital for a suggestion regarding an appointment in the local administration of the District of Columbia. Certainly there is no suggestion of wyong-doing here, but the Democratic Senators seeking to make political medic out of the oil inquiry were quick to assail Pres’ font in unmeasured terms Senator Wheeler, a Democrat, a Daugherty investigation committee has even he will prove the Attorney-General guilty of sanctioning gun-running into Mexico. If proved would show Attorney-General acting in a manner directly opposite to the proclamation of President Coolidge It may be proven, but there is the suspicion that Senator Wheeler rushed into print with his statement of what he would prove simply to make political capital. While the national legislature is resolving itself into snooping committ and striking ont here and there at random, legislatior almost at a standstill.

Not many years ago, it the except among lawyers — to € behind the office” and forget it as much as possible dur- ing the evening. But now it’s a common sight to see men in all sorts of h industries and professions packing letters and other docu- ments and blueprints into leather portfolios and Boston bags when they leave the office for home. In other words, the notion is spreading, that the brain functions better at night. This is an ancient belief among writers. The later, the better. Many prefer the hours after night. mong denc ter Does the brain really function better after the sun goes P down and darkness blankets the earth? This interesting answer suggests itself: Thought may be a definite force generated in the brain and broadcast into space like radio concerts. In support of this theory, people who are highly organized nervously be- come uncomfortable in large crowds, as if they are delicate receivers of broadcast thought Another illustration rises from memory. Examination day in the high school. Several hundred students scowling and cudgeling their brains intently. The teacher in charge of the room, watching for cheats, develops severe headache after an hour or so, and has to be relieved. She appears to be nervously shell-shocked by the thousands of thoughts darting about the room. Thought unquestionably is a force. The only argument is whether it vibrates out into space or remains locked within the skull. If the thought-force really vibrates from the thinker and out into space, the air must be charged with countless mil- ni ions of these vibrations during daytime. Late at night, most of people are asleep and their mental broadcasting stations are shut down until morning. it } If so, we have the explanation of why people think faster as and more clearly at night than during the day. At night a there is less interference, concentration is easier — just as operating. All this is speculation, of course. nature of the great mystery, human thought. we think, but we know not how.
