TODAY and
TOMORROW
(By Frank Parker Stockbridge)
Surplus
TLa gderal Farm Boartl has too
much wheat and cotton on hand. The
Brazilian government has too much
coffee on hand. We want coffee,
Brazil wants wheat, so ah interna
tional "swap" has been arranged.
The Chinese are suffering for food.
The Nanking government has asked
the Farm Board to sell it 5,000,000
bushels of wheat a month for six
months, on long-time credit. It mfty
be a very long time, but it seems
? to me worth doing, It will benefit
millions and harm nobody. It will
relieve this country of much of its
j wheat surplus, save storage charges
'aJi&s&ve human lives. There ought to
I be nothing in any laws to prevent it
, being done.
Now if all the cotton states will
i|oift'in-making it illegal to grow any
cotton at all iu X032, that surplus
will Be wiped out and fair prices win
return ip the cotton market.
Vacation ,Hs \ ~ j
Professor Willis A- Sutton,, head ofi
the school systeiQ. of^Atlanta, who'
has just retired as president of the
National Education Association^ says
that the long Summer vaeation
without responsibility does children'
more harm than good and puts too1
much of & burden on their parents. j
Dr. Sutton's remedy, so far as city'
schools are concerned, is to give pu-j
pils summer work to do which will
take them out of doors but still oc
cupy time which otherwise would be
spent in aimless play.
There is such sound sense in what
fWT-ghttOn saysHtetlt
prise me if a complete revolution in
school systems results from it. Hore
vacations and shorter ones are bet
ter for. children and for their fam
ilies than the long, irresponsible sum
mer period of idleness.
Stars j J
Thirty-eight years ago a ray of
light left the star Arcturus and start
ed toward the earth. It takes light,
travelling at the rate of 186,000 miles
a second, forty years to get from
Arcturus to the earth. The ray which
started in 1893, the year of the
great World's Columbian Exposition
in Chieago, will reach the earth in
1933, when Chicago intends to stage
another World's Fair.
At the Yerkes Observatory at Gen
eva. Wiseonsin, the great telescope
will be focussed on Arcturus in the
spring of 1933. The ray of light which
will have. been forty years on its
travels will be reflected info a photo
sensitive cell, which will convert it
into electric energy. This energy will
throw a switch which will turn on
the lights of the new Worid's Fair
and officially open tEe Exposition.
Nothing oould be more fitting to
illustrate the progress of science Ju
the past forty years. The exhibition
which is to be opened by light from
a star will c?ntain the greatest .col
lection of scientific marvels ever
brought together. What the mind of
man has acbieved-nr tlrn comjoest-?#
nature since the last Chicago World's
Fair is almost "unbelievable.
