An unconfirmed statcniiS!’.!: to tho
t>iiest that an uTinamed phila;itbropi.if
oiiers to spend $15,000,000 lor tuc c.-,-
tabiishment of tweftty radium insi,l-
tules in the United Stntes, mads by
a man who is teatifyir.ij in opposition
to the I'obter-Ferrig Lill should not
influence tha Houso Committee on
Mir*ss in its de!ifcer*itions thi? sub
ject of Government conservation of
radium. Whether the report proves
jo be accurate or not, the duty of
tif Governinent remains the sarae.
According to Flannery’s own state
ment 200 grams of radiiim are needed
for the United States. The benefac
tion alleged to bo contemplated in-;
eludes the distribution of only 100]
grams. Assuming both statements
to be trv.8 there still remains 100
irrams to be supplied, and Congress,
vben it ahsdecided to supply radium
to the pfiiople, should be able to de-
rise a better plais than ot buy it from
Mr. FliaiRery at his own price. This
■aan has dropped his mask of altru
ism and now admits that his opposi-
iinfi to the Fnster-I'Krris bill is based
«!i purely selfish motives. It behooves
the conimitteo thnn to axamine his
statemer.ts with irreat caution.
No philanthropist public spirited
eiusugh to give awuy fiftcn miilio.'i
(toUars for nidi«m cures would dream
of makin'^ the d'?feHi of the conserva-
lioB measure now before the House a
condition precedent to his gift. He
wouid wi-’.corat! Government co-oper-
aliori rathen than discourage it. And
i'Hannery seems to be the last person
he would likely to choose as his
spokesman,—Press.
