TRULY GREAT HEN GET SCANT REWARD Scienists, Doctors, el., Are Neg: lcted by World, Speaker Says London, Feb, 28 (By the Assoclated | Press)—The world's neglect of its men of selence was theme taken by Colonel Sir Ronald Ross, authority on tropical diseases, in addressing the Yiritish Sclence Guild, “¥ou throw your geniuses on the dust heap,” he sald scornfully, He recounted the brief recognition ae- corded to those who solve important scieutifie problems, although he made no complaint of his ewn treatmom which, the record shows, has been liberal, “The genius who saved countiess lives in India by discovering methods of inocculation against cholera and plague,” the speaker asserted, “is not employed by Great Britain in any capacity whatever today.” Sir Ronald added that he was not at liberty to divulge the name of this man, but his hearers assumed that he referred to Waldemar Haffkine, former bactert. ologist with the governnfent of India, Continuing the speaker sald: “Walter Reed, the young American who discovered that yellow fever In carried by the mosquito, was given a menial medical job after his discov- ory—seoing people's tongues and pre- scribing castor oll. He was allowed to fall 11l and die feeling the greatest apprehension as to the future livel- hood of his wife and children.” Sir Ronald referred to Sir David Bruce, who discovered she cure for sloeping sickness. “England doesn't even think it worth while to employ him now,” the speaker declared. He continued: “It had often been sald that the man who could find the cure for tuberculosis or who could discover the cause and cure of can- cer would become a millionaire. On the contrary, it is more likely that he would die in the workhouse.” RELIGIOUS LABORATORY Grace's Protestant Episcopal Church in Brooklyn Starts Move.

Colonel Haskell told the American correspondents that he was confident that as a result of new ar- rangements the mail would not be again delayed, The colonel put before Kameneft the Russian government's refusal to vise the return passport of John Lehre, formerly in the American con- sular service in Russia and now the administration’s most valued inter- pretor. Lehre recently went to Riga for a vacation, and found that hé was not to be allowed to return to Mos- cow on the ground that he had writ- ten a letter to some counter-revolu- tionary Russian in Paris.
