FORESEES ORIENT DOWINATING WORLD Professor Waras West of Its Declining Birth Rate Pittsburgh, April 29UP—Eugenic factors for and against domination of the world by oriental rYaces .are enumerated by Professor Roswell H. Johnson of the University of Pitts- burgh in a report to the American Eugenic soclety, “The eugenic aspect of the ori- ent,” he says, must interest us, since the western world uow has entered into & rapid decling of the birth rate which is sMared only in a minor degree as yet by the orient. “This, together with a superior toleration of torrid temperatures by the Chinese and the East Indians, presages an orientalization of the world (especially if we include the semi-oriental, fecund Russian peas- ant.) “The outstanding feature of the erient eugenically is the effect that the very strong family unit there has in resisting the powerful trend toward a lower birth rate in the intelligentsia. The significant fea- ture is that the Chingese man and woman fepl a genuine ambition to be the parents of several ehildren. “The international consequence, especially as the death rate is regu- larly decreasing with the spread of western medical arts, is sure to be a great increase in the oriental populations in contrast to the west- ern populations. *“The crucial question is how firm & Jesistance does the Chinese fam- {ly system offer to the great wave of family limitation that is sweeping the western world so effectively? In China it is now evident that among those educated in the west, J0Y AT KING'S RECOVERY LEADS 10 $500,000 GIFT Ancaymious Damor Coutributes to King !Zdwlrd‘s Hospital Fund as Thank Offering. London, April 29 @ — Gratitude for King George's recovery had ted an anonymous donor to give 100,000 guineas (about $500,000) to King Edward's hospital fund for London with the hope that it will form a nucleus of “thank” offerings from the nation as a whole. Administrators of the hospital fund have adopted the anonymous benefactor's suggestion and have completed arrangements under ! which particular contributions may | be earmarked for purchase of ra- dium. 8ignifying the king's appreciation of the kindly thought of the donor, Lord Stamfordham, King George's private secretary, has written as follows: “The king's illness has brought | home to him more clearly than ever before, the resources of modern medicine and the value of devoted | nursing. Medical science owes much of its development to great hospitals, which also contribute an admirable training ground for the nursing pro- tession.” King Edward’'s hospital fund was started by King Edward VII in 1547 and makes grants to 150 hospitals and other institutions. When th fund was first started the objective was $500,000 a year. Last year the amount received totalled more than ! $1,250,000. Hagearty Accompanist At Recital Over WTIC | Charles E.

D, April 29 UP—An open book on the cvolution of ani- mal life from the earliest geologic period soon wiil be readily accessible to automobile tourists. The Bad Lands of South Dakota, 50,000 acres of geologic treasures and unique scenery, are to be made a part of the national park system | as soon as two requirements are met by citizens of the state. The first is that a highway, al- ready surveyed. be built through the area to provide easy access to the “points of greatest interest. |t will start at Interior, go over Biz Foot pass, through the region known as the Pinnacles, and on west to Sage creek, a distance of about 30 miles. The second requirement is that a few pieces ot private property along the highway be acquired without cost to the federal government. Senator Peter Norbeck, one of | leaders in the movement to| preserve the Bad lands, predicts that | these conditions will be fulfilled | within two years. In its report on a survey of the territory, a congregational commit- tee said: “The topography of the South Da- kota Bad Lands is so unique, varied and interesting, and the fame of the | region as a large field for scientific | exploration of the geologic past is s0 extensives, that the committee is of the opinion this area is worthy of national park sta‘us. . . .

Coburn. Eleven men abandoned the Co- burn, registered from New Bedford, Masas when it foundered on a'voy- aga from Baltimore to Martinique. They were without food or water after the first four days. Three of them were white men, the rest Ne. groes. While smashing seas broke against the sides of their 20-foot yawl each maa prayer to his own conception of a deity. One of the white men—W. E. Mil- liken, engineer—became temporarily mad; his hysterical mutterings add- ed to the babel of prayers. One of the Negroes, Gaaw Sargent, 60-year old cook, died; his body was not thrown overboard because the other 10 men in the boat were too weary for the exertion involved. Captain Jose J.

Captain 8ydney McLaughlin of the Amida, which arrived last night, said he was 15 miles off course when he sighted the yawl. The survivors were not told that the rescue was rendered possible only by accident. Canned meat and hardtack were put into the yawl when the schooner ‘was abandoned. S8alt water soaked the crackers, however, and despite scanty rations the meat soon was gone. Four days before they were saved there was no food or water aboard. Bannan on Big Plane That Noses Into Turf Chairman M. W. Bannan of the board of police commissioners was a passenger in the Sikorsky Amphib- damaged Saturday rainard field, Hart- ford, and escaped injury although given an unexpected thrill. The ship is owred by the Pan- American Petroleum & Transport company and the accident happened while it was landing on a muddy spot. The pointed bow of the hull plowed through the earth for sever- al feet and the right wing dipped so jow it barely escaped being crushed against the ground. A ditch fully two feet deep was dup up by the nose of the ship. Chairman Bannan was with a party of Pan-American products dealers and the trip on which the accident happened was the fifth of the afternoon, ten trips having been scheduled.
