SCIENCE OUGHT T0 STUDY FARM NEEDS Jurdine Gives His Views on Agricultural Development By W. M. Jardine Secretary of Agriculture (Written for The United Press) Washington, June 24 (UP)—The agriculture resources of the United States have been developed with greater rapidity perhaps than those of any other country in the world. Both the federal and state govern- ments devote milllons of dollars each year to the study of diverse farm problems ranging from soil analysis and plant and animal diseases to problems of cooperation and™market- ing. But in spite of all that has been done ang is being done, I believe there is & pronounced need for great- er efforts in the fleld of pure science, a fleld in which the United States is far behind many European countries, We have made astonishing prog- ress in applying the results of pure sclence, but in order that this use- ful work may go on unabated we need the fundamental facts that can be obtained only by a wide and decp interest in scientific work which is not necessarily directed toward the solution of any particular agricul- tural or industrial problem. There is big work ahead for young men interested in pure science and the basic facts they discover will shape and guide the agriculture of the future as well as industry. The great scientific era of the past century seems to be expanding into a still greater one. In chemistry, in physics, in blology, in agriculture more discoveries are now being made in a day than were made in months 20 years ago. America, however, going ahead by leaps in applied science, has not been doing her share in this funda- mental work of pure science. Out of 76 Nobel prizes awarded since 1900, the United States received 4, Germany took 24, England 11, France 10, Netherlands 6, Sweden b, Denmark 3, Switzerland 8, and the others were scattered among six oth- er European countries and Canada. 1t is something for our young sci- entists to think about. KIRKW00D ALSO WILL G0 WITH BOBBY JONES, ~ Defeats OChaniplon Five and Four and Makes Up His Mind to Take Trip. Atlanta, Ga., June 24 (A—Joc Kirkwood, Australian professional, deteated Bobby Jones five gnd four in an 18 hole match yesterday and decided forthwith to accompany the ;| Atlanta amateur on a hurried trip to Scotland and seek to wrest from him the British open title. Immediately after the match at the Radium Springs Country club, near Albany, Ga., Jones returned to Atlanta by automobile. Kirkwood came fn soon after by train. The two golfers, with Jones' father and two of his. frlends had reservations science— |the word.

Due to arrive in New York to- morrow morning, the party will have only a short time before board- ing the Transylvania for England. Kirkwood did not resort to his famous trick shots against Jones vesterday but fired six birdies at him to finish the 18 holes with a 6, five strokes fewer than Jones re- quired. The Eritish titleholder's 71, was one under par for the course but his game could not match the Australian’s. After the match, Jones had left and congratulations were still pour- ing in on Kirkwood when he re- marked that he had “half a mind” to make the trip with Jones. Kirkwood's game was strikingly similar to the first of the record setting round Jones had in the qualifying round of the British tournament last year. His total was the same as the famous “Sunning- cale 66” and on each nine he recorded Bobby's 33. He was rever over par but had one five and one two, whereas Jones was pever un- der three or over four. \|Middletown People Voice Objections to Markings Middletown, Conn., June 24 (A— Ldward Dunn of the police force was rather proud of the inspiration which led him to paint on the side- walks, opposite the marked pedes- trian lanes at street intersections, a white cross with the word “Here” underneath. He }l\ough( it an easy offective way to advise pcople to cross here” and avold accidents, So many»protests came to the de- | purtment however, voicing the opin- ion that to have a cross on the side- \|walk where it was walked over by every passerby was sacrilegious that it seemed desirable to obliterate the pictorial cross and paint in its place Fight or ten of the markings had been placed at busy street intersections in the center of the city as part of the campaign to reduce accidents. Meriden Man Electrocuted While at Work Today Meriden, Conn., June 24 (P— While working on a Connecticut Light and Power Co. abandoned wire this morning at 8:50 o'clock on Hanover street ,near Columbus ave- nue, J.

The relatively small vol- ume of overnight selling encour- oged a resumption of pool opera- tions, which sent more than & dozen issues to new high levels for the year. There was nothing in the day's news to influence the price mov ment. Operators for the rise bought stocks on the theory that the mar- ket's technical position had been strengthencd by the recent shake- outs, and that a better demand for securities was likely next month as a result of the unusually large ‘| volume of funds to be distributed in the form of dividend and inter- cst payments. The weekly mercan- tile reviews reported little change in the general situation, with sum- imer dullness the rule in most lines. General Motors, Mack Trucks and Hudson, which were freely sold yesterday, came back in im- pressive fashion. Buying probably was stimulated by reports that the official announcement of the new Ford models would be delayed for a few weeks with the result that competition from that source would not cut much of a figure un- til later in the year. General American Tank was run up nearly 5 points to a new peak on talk of a higher dividend. Es- tablishment of a new high by Art Metals was accompanied by uncon- firmed rumors of a merger Wwith Remington Rand. Fertilizer ‘shares gathered strength on reports of improving business. There were sev- eral soft spots, with Inspiration Copper, Kelsey-Hayes Wheel and Nattonal Department Stores sinking to new low ground for.the year. May earnings reports published thus far show conflicting results, with the Eastern Coalers making the best showing. St. Paul common and Kansas City preferred moved into new high ground today and Texas & Pacific was bid up about 3 points. Price movements lacked uniform- ity at the opening of today's stock market. Opening quotations dis- closed, however, that strong buying support had been provided overnight for some of the recent favorites, gains of a point or more being rec- orded by Baldwin, 8t. Louls South- western, Colorado Fuel, and Western Maryland. DuPont and Union Bag and Paper each opened a point low- er. THE MARKET AT 2:30 P. M. (Furnished by Putnam & Co.)
