On the other hand, old men | will be slower to raise wages, shorten hours.and otherwise check production while giving Jabor a greater share of the profits H The changing age balance, he point- | ed aui, is likely to effect many lines | of industry. Old people require less to | eat. . Hence there may be a decrcased demand for staple foods and more de- | mand for health foods and tonics. This | may make the farm problem mor serious. Old people do not wear ou their clothes so fast. They do not care much for new styles of dress. Elderly couples prefer life in apartment houses where they have no furnaces to tend or walks to clear of snow is probably will mean more apartment houses &nd fewer single-family dwellings. Hence | the population of cities will be more concentrated. Homes for the aged will become more numerous, while there will be less demand fcr public appro- | priations for new schools Dancing and fast automobiles will be less in demand while there can be ex- pected, Dr. Whelpton said, more de- mand for radios and good books.

Ely of Harvard University before the AmericAn Land Economics 'Association Recovery from a depression, Dr. Ely | said, necessitates a transfer of labor and capital from occupations in which they are in excess to new lines of ac- | tivity. As such a transfer takes place too slowly when left to itself, he pro- posed & permanent peace-time army of 25,000 with a general economic staff at the head. This army would be kept at work all the time in non-competitive work, such as reforestation, roadside beautification and elimination of grade crossings. But it would be so organized that it would be expanded indefinitely in an emergency, just &s can & Treal army ir time of war. When & depression oc- curred the procedure would be to ac- cept for enlistment those thrown out of work and keep them engaged in public works until industry could take them back again The members of this peace-time army would be paid just as are soldiers in the Regular Army. The general staff would | know the qualifications of the men and | be ready to transfer them back into | industry as soon as there was & place for them., “Suppose,” he said, “there should be a return of prosperity and the United | States Steel Co. should have need of 10.- 000 employes of various sorts, they could turn at once to the general, staff and | workers could be sent to Pittsburgh or Chicago or wherever else they might be needed.” He stressed the advantage of such a peace-time army over the dole system of unemployment insurance. Urges Economle Council. Establishment of a national eco- | nomie council, appointed and supported by industry itself, was advocated as & safeguard against future depressions by | H. J. Herriman, president of the New | England Power Co., before the Ameri- | can Economic Aspociation. | The natural cyre for- depressions of the past, increaséd population to take | up the surplus of goods, no longer is | operative, Mr. Harriman said. Wit the American population rapidly reach- | ing its probable limit, he held, the old | poliey of extreme individualism must | give way to one of national economy | with cut-throat business tactics elimi- nated ! He urged as a first step the amend- | ment of anti-trust legislation making extensive business combinations possible | under Government regulation. Then the economic council would be able to | deal with industry on & national bas considering such fundamental qu‘\.\-‘ tions as the number of workers neces- | sary to keep up a basic standard of liv- ing for the entire population, the bal- | ance between the productive capacity | of industry and the capacity of the| people to buy, levels of wages, foreign | trade and the relation of agriculture %o business | Blames Inferfor Land.

He mentioned such particular terms | in headlines as “clash, battle, rap, fla slay and assail” &s words which have grown up in newspaper practice to serve all sorts of occasions and which tend to arouse the public emotions over the | events of the day rather than promote | clear thinking. | The great mass of the population, he said, “still mumbles through a crisis at the level of verbal magic,” in a phan- tasy world where words mean all things to all men, although political theory still is based on the antiquated con- cept drawn from eighteenth century philosophy that man is a deliberative and rational creature. Persons base their attitudes on words and not on the | things for which they stand. Cites Expressio; s expression, ‘‘rug- he gave as an ex- ample of word magic.

Dr. John O'Grady of the Catholic University be- fore the American Association of Labor Legislation. “Public works as a reme; ployment never has been given a serious trial in this country,” he said. “Our whole tendency has been to use money for public purposes when it could be obtained without difficulty. It looks as if a large program of public improve- ments financed by Government credits or further de ation of economic values with their resultant business and bank failures were our only alternative at present.” for unem- Group Discussions Held., The Political Science Association di- vided into seven groups for round-table discussions and papers this morning, the several sections hearing talks on sub- jects ranging from economic planning to the foibles of American judicial ad- ministration J.

The experiments were conducted by | the United States Burcau of Chemistry | and Soils, Washington, and reported by Lawrence H. James. “The production and marketing of | frozen vegetzbles and fruits without | heat sterilization,” he said, “has raised ' the question as to whether or not there is a possibility of botulinus poisoning arising from consumption of such prod- ucts which have been improverly han- | dled.” Both Methods Ineffective. | | | He described two general methods of | freezing food products, one “quick,” at | temperatures ranging from 50 to 85 be- low zero F., and the other slow. “Dried botulinus spores,” he con- tinued, “have been frozen with solid carbon dioxide ice, defiosted at inter- vals and the total numbers of living spores as well as the presence of toxin | determined. There was no reduction in | the number of living spores, neither when defrosted and examined immedi- ately after being frozen nor when they have been frozen for nine days and then examined. Subcutaneous injec- | tions into guinea pigs showed that no | toxin had been liberated from the spores by the freering.” | Live for Years in Vacuum. | New records of ability of bacteria to | live dried up in_vacuum for years were presented by J.

Forty strains of | hucteria placed in vacuum from 4 to 12 years ago have recently been opened, said Dr. Brown, and all except two of them were alive. Hidden Epidemics Bared. The hiding place of epidemics was brought to light yesterday in a serles of discoverles about a strange sort of bac- | teria. Disease bacteria, it was shown, both epidemic and others, have the power to change their forms, to break up into tiny bits, which are all but invisible | even in microscopes. In this dust-fine | scattering they retain life and yet little | | understood ability to grow again, in modified form, more dreadful or milder. | These “come backs” explain the sources | of some epidemics and possibly also why epidemics sometimes rather suddenly die down The breaking up of bacteria into small bits has been known for some time, but | formerly it was believed that this dis- integration was death.

Ancient “magical” beliefs brought up to date, that still rule everyday lives of many educated Americans, were de- scribed today before the association. Women are slightly more inclined to believe in “magic” than men, said Prof. A. O. Bowden of New Mexico State Teachers' College, because they are less accustomed to meeting the hard facts of reality. The belief that beautiful pictures fine music and beautiful home sur- roundings somehow make people moral and virtuous is held by 86 out of every 100 average citizens, Prof. Bowden found.

The second nerve fiber usually fol- lows the trail of the pioneer fiber. Other fibers follow in the same manner and thus a small nerve is formed.” Nerve sprouts sometimes rest if cells start multiplying nearby—that is, other flesh starts to grow—the quiet fibers become restless; evidently they sense that they have a new place to go.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, December 29.— Discovery of sugars that crystallize as one substance, although they undoubt- edly are mixtures of two components, | was reported today to the American | Chemical Spciety by Dr. Claude S. Hud- | |son of the United States Public Health Service. | Heretofore, in the purification of | sugars and their derivatives, Dr. Hud- | son said, it has been considered that | recrystallization of the substances sev- eral times, until the physical properties reachea constant values, was a trust- worthy procedure, His researches with R. C. Hockett, also of the Public Health Service at Washington. have thrown new light on what Dr. Hudson's paper termed ‘“novel substances of the sugar group.” “Thus milk sugar, which has been known in the past in two forms, named Alpha and Beta lactose,” he said, “has now been found to crystallize from which is composed of five parts Alpha and three parts of Beta lactose.” He also described other form double crystalline derivatives compounds. This adds to the difficulty of isolating pure chemical individuals among sug- ars, he said. Progress in the making of synthetic rubber was reported to the society. Two compounds, chloroprene bromoprene, which react with them- selves very rapidly to form rubber-like products, were described by Dr. Wal- | lace H. Carothers of the du Pont de Nemours Co. | For certain special uses, he said, the synthetic product is much superior to natural rubber. Special study has been made of sub- stances prepared from vinylacetylene which can be used as a starting ma- terial for the synthesis of a whole series {of new compounds, Dr. Carothers ex- plained. In four days after the chloroprene has been mixed it is & Stiff jelly, and in 10 days it becomes non-plastic, with a density of 1.23.

He did not indicate what' the conclusions of the committee would be, but said it would end its existence on December 31, 1932, Referring to the work of this commit- |tee in amassing facts which he pre- |sented at a breakfast meeting of the delegates in the Washington Hotel, Dr. Wilbur said “The average expenditures for medi- cal care increase as the income of the family increases. Only in part is this | due to higher costs per unit of service; wealthy people actually receive a larger number of services. Much of the pres- ent expenditure is unwisely spent.
