Explaining that public ownership need not entail public operation, Com- missioner Eastman said, however, he favored combining them, but that the actual operation should be conducted through the medium of a separate cor- poration, with Pederal or State Gov- ernment, as the case might be, the stockholder. The executive branch of govern- ment, he said, should appoint a board of trustees, in whom would be vested the managerial functions. Legislative Responsibility. ‘The legislative branch would be re- sronsible for charter powers and pur- poses, but would be without author- ity to interfere with management, ex- cept through powers of investigation. Under such an arrangement, there should be a safeguard against political interference with personnel, Mr. East- man said, adding that this idea might be further carried out by having busi- ness and labor interests of the commu- nity granted a certain amount of rep- resentation in the trusteeships. This idea has been carried out suc- cessfully in the Boston Elevated Rail- way Company, the Canadian National Railway and elsewhere, Mr. Eastman amplified. Assuming of Responsibility. Governments, through regulatory eommissions, already have assumed part of the responsibility for utilities, the speaker said, adding that “sound prin- ciples of administration” would sug- gest the assumption of “complete and undivided responsibility,” thereby ma- terially simplifying operation. Eastman disputed the contention that private enmterprise is superior to that in government, or is calculated to give rise to fewer abuses. Admitting deficiencies in govern- ment, he emphasized his experience in this line—in Massachusetts and on the commission—have been “far from dis- couraging.” Vigilantes' Rifles Stolen.

Adrian stimulated & touch nerve ending of a frog by an air jet pro- duced by a toothed wheel, causing about 300 stimulations a second, but the frog showed no signs of pain. No pain response could be obtained from a guinea pig, one of whose hairs was stimulated by & steel strip vibratin, several hundred times a second. The ordinary speed of a nerve im |pulse is about 80 meters a second. | Adrian found that the pain message | from a pin prick moved only from 15 to 20 meters a second, from burning 4 to 5 meters a second and from pinch- ing 10 to 15 meters a second. This | led to the advancement of the theory of slow and fast nerve systems—the former of which res tense stimull. ‘The to be faster than those of the nerve | which convey touch sensations. T.
