T — PURLICS INTEREST INSCIENCE GROWS Goange Daring Hali Century Has Boen Great Washington, Nov. P —The change which has come about in the relation of science to the public in the last §0 years is emphasized by Austin .-H. Clark of the National Museym, news manager of the Amerjcan Association for the ad- vancement of Science, in the current issue of its official publication, “Sci- enece.” Asserting that this new public at- titude toward science makes neces- sary a broadening of the interests and contacts of research workers, he declares it is their duty “to as-| sist in making the picture clear and comprehensive” through the news- papers, “Fifty years ago.” he points out.| “every man was able to live his owa life as he saw fit within very broad limits, to amass wealth which was! considered as his own and not sub- | iect to appraisal by others, to spend his_entire income in any way he choge, or to pursue any kind of scientific activities he wished re- gardless of what others thought of them. “At the present time conditions are quite different. Every communi ty takes a lively interest in the af- fairs and . activities of each con. stituent member. “The concrete idea of taxing a man's ability to amass wealth and his productive ability goes hand in hand with the abstract idea in the same way the community has a pro- prietary interest in the mental ca- pacity or intellectual capital of the scientific worker and in the results of his researches. “The millionaire and the laborer alike now take a lively interest in the output of the research workers because both realize that their com- bined efforts in organization, fi- nance, direction and production create the income from the endow- ment or personal capital that makes scientific work possible. “The interest in science of the community as a whole is shown by the fact that at ¢%e present time all classes acquiesce in the setting aside for remearch work of increas- ingly large sums of money derived from general taxation.
