There will also be a. meeting of

’WASHINGTON. April 28.—Set-
ting anew the government's “stamp
of approval" on the work of the
National Academy of Sciences and
the National Research Council.
President Coolidge, speaking today
at the dedication of the new home
here of the two organizations. pre:
dicted the coming or "a. new day
in scientific research."

"A new sun is rising," he said. "It
is destined to illuminate the scien-

tific world by illuminating this
hall."

The President in his address
traced the intimate relationships

which from the days of Benjamin
Franklin have existed between
science and the American govern-
ment. and declared that “if there
be one thing in which America is
pre-eminent, it is a. disposition to
follow the truth."

“It is the same spirit." he de-
clared. “that has moved through all
our life which makes it particularly
appropriate that our national gov-
ernment should be active in its en-
couragement of the searching out
of the truth in the physical world
and applying it to the well being of
the peopl‘e, as it is interest in the
searching out of the truth in the
political world. with the same ob-
ject in view."

Emphasizing the' declaration of
Washington in his farewell address
for promotion of "institutions for
general diffusion of knowledge,"
Mr. Coolidge said “the beginning of
our government. therefore. had to
do with the inception of scientific re-
search in the United States."

“American science." he avowed.
“may be divided into five periods—
the Jefferson period..that of Silli-
man. the Agassxz period. the pres-
ent period of cooperative research
when no one dominates. and the
future for which definite founda-
tions are being laid.”

During the first. period. Jefferson
distinguished himself in paleontolo-
glc researches and set. up his labor-
atory in the East room of the W‘hite
House. During the Silllman period.
John Quln’cy Adams was concerned
in the founding of the Smithsonian
Institution and other important
scientific societies were founded.

' After, the Civil War. he declared.
Lincoln interested himself in science
and signed a. bill incorporating the
National Academy of Sciences. Dur-
ing the world war when the need
for solution of important problems
by groups of thinkers rather than
individuals was apparent. Wilson
had a. part in the next scientific
stride.

To this end, Mr. Coolidge said. the
National ' Research Council was
formed. '

"One of the most important pos-
sibilities for service of the National,
Academy of Science in the future lies
in its opportunity for inspiring the
people of America to insistence upon
having the truth. and nothing but
the truth. regarding everything that
touches our life as a. nation. It is
ialways to be borne in mind that
.whlle the peculiar relation of the
academy to the government of the
United States may‘concern the con-
duct. of specific researches. the ex-
ample of dignified emphasis upon
the truth as reached by correct
thinking in every department of re-
search and in its practical applica-
tions, may be a. contribution of in-
estimable value to the whole peN

“It' is for this purpose that the
government sets its stamp of appro-
val upon this effort. and jllns in
dedicating this building to the bet-
ferment of the human race by
achieving a clearer knowledge of the
truth." ‘

 

STORE ROBBED

The police were notified yesterday
that the Cannon Drug store in Van
Zandt street, had been entered
sometime during last Saturday
night. The matter was investigated
by Patrolman John Tootblll. who
learned that entrance had been gain-
ed through a. window. that the pro-
prietor had not closed. About two or
three dollars in pennies were taken.

Lady 'Azgapetian De-
scribes Plight of Ar-
menians t o - Audi-
ences Here

 

 

Everyone is’not acquainted with
the situation of the Armenians in
the Far East. To aid them a. fund
is being taken up throughout the
United States. To explain this sit-
uation to Norwalk those interested
had Lady Anne Azgapstian come to
Norwalk. She spoke at,the Hillside
School Friday afternoon and in the
evening at Miss Thomas' School.

In her evening address she des-
scribed the geographical position of
Armenia. the ancient land of Noah,
from who‘se lofty plateau rises the
still loftier Mount Ararat, perpet-
ually snow clad. Here the Tigris
and Euphrates have their sources.
Here. from the beginning of time,
have hen fought the battles of the
human race for possession of its
spiritual Kingdom.

Three thousand years ago a
branch of white people. of the same
stock which has produced the races
of Europe. migrated from Thrace to
the slopes of Mt. Ararat. For three
thousand years the labor of' these
people. their habits. their associa-
tions. and their traditions have been
rooted in this land. In most of
these Years this outpost of the white
race stood a bulwark against the
Tat-tars of the farther East. With
the rest of the Western world they
came into the heritage of Jewish
and Christian religion.

Five hundred years ago the Turks
succeeded in invading and taking
possession of this country. and be-
cause the Turks are Mohammedans,
Armenia has been subject to per-
sistent massacres which have pre-
vented it ever since being strong
enough to throw off the Turkish
yoke.

The situation at the end of the
World “’ar was pitiful, Lady Az-
pagetian said. The country was
devastated. the adult. population al-
most exterminatod. and portions of
the land itself were handed over to
foreign governments by the final
treaties. Moreover, the great natur-
al resources of this week and help-
less country aroused the greed of
the men of other nations who had
money to invest, and their desire
and hopes colored the final disposlv
tion of this people.

In this emergency two friendly
hands were ‘ held out. Bankrupt
Greece offered a place for a place
for the thousands of refugees, for
\\ hom. deprived of everythnlg, bread
and butter became the acute prob-
lem. America. rich and with a.
passion for fair play. organized the
Near East Relief Fund. and vol-
unteer workers hastened over to
nurse the sick. to prevent the con-
tinuance and spread of the epidem-
ics which followed hunger and ex-

posure, and to take care of the
helpless orphaned children. '
Much work has been done. she

declared. not only in meeting the
immediaté emergencies, but also
