But not for the reasons usually
given. It. is not a matter merely of
"free speech. "

The right peacefully to agitate for

to foreigners.

We. have ‘not only, the right. but
the duty. to exclude from our shores
forsignets who come to preach doc-
trines whose preaching in should
not interfere vtlth from our own
citizens.

And, as to Saklatvala's attacking
the British government. we have al-
resdy let DeVaiera do that. and Bri-
tain has let Saklatvala do it in the
British Parliament itself.

So neither free speech nor inter-
national cotnity is involved.

The only thing that is involved is
the absurdity of putting an Ameri~

The Last Frontier

_ .
Science is international. Tho his-
tory of almost any important ad-
more in the world of science. whoth.
er of the past or the present. gives
ample proof of. that. >
But scientists themselves are apt
frequently to be as national in their
thinking as other, human beings.
And so. even with scientists. the ef-
fects of war wear off slowly.
Announcement is made by the
British Association for the Advance-
ment of Science that’invitations for
its meeting next year will be issuod
irrespective of nationality. From
the time of the war until the pre-
sent. invitations have been issued
only to scientists of allied or neutral
countries'of the war days.
This writer attended the associa-
tion'- meeting at Liverpool. Eng-
land. in 1928. The guests included
scientists from the iUnlted Itotes.
France, Holland and Scandinavia.
But though the scientists of Ger-
many were not present in person.
they figured in the discussions. For
the Einstein theory was one of the

 

 

 

 

chief topics of discussion at the
meeting. and Professor Einstein. as

This is nr'itcruliv it local prol'llom.

Cleanliness and hygiene begins at
home. if you buy clean food in the
market you must. exercise some
supervision owr the preparation of
that food or you cannot be assured
that clean foml froth the market will
reach your table clean.

Servants do not always have a
clear conception of cleanliness in
the matter of food handling.

When the prtipul'ation Of food is
left. entirely in the hands of those
who have not hurl the advantage of
education. can you expect them to
appteclutc the daugcts of insanitary
methods of food handling or under-
stand the impottanco of cleanliness
in the kitchen?

Those who do not know of the
existence of bacteria may not. be. ex-
pected to take adequate precautions
against the spread of disease by
means of bacteria. Food utensils,
especially ice boxes. need frequent
scouring. frequent cleaning and fre-
quent exposure to the sun.

The Einstein theory itself is proof

of the international character of sci-
ence. The original experiment upon
which it Was basedwas performed
in the United States. in Cleveland.
Ohio. to be exact. by three Ameri-
can scientists. Professor A. A. Mi-
chelson, the late Professor Edward
Morley and Professor Dayton C. Mil-
ler.

As Einstein. himself. sets forth in
his publications. he also based hi
theory in part upon work done b
Lorentz. famous Dutch physicist.
and Minkowski. the Russian mathe-
matician.

Today the leaders of research into
relativity. aside ‘from Einstein him~
self. are Dr. Harlow Shapley. an
American. and Professor A. S. Ed-
dington, an Englishman.

I U o

Many other similar instances can
he cited. For example. Pasteur. I.
Frenchman. discovered the part bac—
teria play in disease. Lister. an Eng.
lishman. applied this theory to sur-
gery and revolutionized the danger-
ous éllllllilf‘rinfi surgery of his day
into he modern antiseptic surgery.

The chances are that administra-
tion senators in combating Coussna
may indulge in a. few personalities.
They may point to the fact that
Mellon paid an income tax of more
than $1,000,000 and that Couzonsl
admittedly thespossessor of sovenal
millions. paid a tax of only $1200.

The Old Guard senators are likely
to suggest that the country might be
interested in knowing just how a
man with so much wealth as
Couzens could get his tax so‘ low. Of
course. Consens' honesty in filing a
return is not challenged in the
least. but as a means of Checkmat-

to turn the investigation to the
question of tax~erempt securities—
