RELIGIOUS STUDENTS’ SESSIONS mNDIAXAPOLIS today is the center of church thought of America. Several thousand students are invading the Hoosier capital in dedication of their lives to Christianity. If older sages kick up their heels in controversy over science and religions and a multitude of subjects an average church member knows only a thimbleful about, then youth is indeed hilarious in its enthusiasm. The fact that students have come from practically every State in the Union and from foreign countries is proof enough, it seems, the student volunteer movement is startling in its possibilities and its present momentum. The needs of America —with its millions of uneducated and unassimilated immigrants, its city tenements, its factory problems. its mountain districts in Kentucky and Tennessee, and a rural church that is rapidly becoming stagnant—these are attracting attention of the student volunteer. “Religion must begin at home,” Alonzo Ray Petty, pastor of the Judson Memorial Baptist Church, New York City, told students at a preliminary session here. “Our great Christian battle is not only to give the people of India and CJiina a chance to hear the Gospel, but also to give it to many millions here who know nothing of its meaning or applications.” YOUNG WOOD’S KILLING INY man who starts life on a shoestring and ends up a rich i ____ man attracts attention. When a mere boy runs a shoestring into approximately SBOO,OOO in little more than a year, he creates a sensation. That is exactly what the 26-year-old Lieut. Osborne Wood, son and aid of Gov. Gen. Leonard Wood of the Philippines, has done, bucking Wall Street, he says, from far-off Manila. The unfortunate part of his good fortune, however, is that it casts something of a shadow over his father s administration in the islands, already subject of considerable criticism both :n Congress and among the Filipinos. Among other things, young Wood admits he made money on Philippines exchange. This despite the fact that his father is the governor of the Philippines, and he the aid to his father. However technically correct this may be, it is nevertheless extremely bad practice for Government officials, or attaches of high Government officials, to speculate in the manner described. That Secretary of War Weeks, himself a former Wall Street broker, thought so, too, is plain, for as soon as he learned of young Wood's activities, he ordered them stopped. Incidentally and thereto appertaining, it appears that General Wood did not know what was going on in his own office until informed from Washington. If news cables from Manila quote General Wood correctly, he put a stop to his son’s speculations as soon as he learned of them. And Secretary Weeks says he. himself, gave the order “that the operations cease.” T Which naturally does not redound exactly to General Wood’s credit, to say the least, if, as it appears. Secretary Weeks, in Washington, found out what was going on in General Wood's own household on the other side of the world from Washington before the general himself. It is to be hoped the resolution of Representative James A. Frear (Republican) of Wisconsin, asking for an investigation of Wood’s administration of the Philippines, is favorably acted upon. It will be best for General Wood and all concerned.
COLISEUM MOVEMENT rr“j HALF MILLION visitors in Indianapolis in seventeen |A| months. That is a statement that coincides with the fact that Indianapolis is a leading railroad, retail and wholesale center as well as being near the geographic center of the United States. A half million visitors, however, were more than tourists in the city. For from June 1, 1922, to Nov. 1, 1923, the total of persons in attendance at all conventions in the city was 569,315. They passed several days in the city at least, while many were here for a greater part of a week. Indianapolis as a convention center has long enjoyed great popularity because of its railroad and hotel facilities. Its one handicap—lack of a modern large auditorium—has been overcome by other advantages. For a city to maintain its leadership, however, requires progress. Other cities have overcome the auditorium handi rp by construction of large coliseums where conventions may be held with ease. The coliseum movement in Indianapolis will retain that leadership which the city has long enjoyed and which, by all ritr v ts, it should possess. “MORE OR LESS HUMILIATING ” “PfTIUE entire subject, of course, is more or less humiliating, 1 * I even to refer to." Thus Albert L>. Fall, former Secretary of the Interior, explained a shipment of blooded cattle to him by Harry F. Sinclair, oil magnate, and chief beneficiary of Fall’s naval oil reserve handouts. The Senate committee wondered why Sinclair should be so grateful that he shipped the cattle at cost to Fall. "More or less humiliating, even to refer to," is a good phrase mi describe this whole P'all episode. It is more or less humiliating to the public to know’ that a trusted public official used his powers in office to let the public domain slip out of Government hands and into those of private exploiters. It is more or less humiliating to the Navy to know that from now on it is dependent upon the market for its fuel supply, without which the Navy is not a Navy at all, but merely a bunch of ships. It is more or less humiliating to those who fought alongside Roosevelt and Wilson to save these public resources to know that after all they were saved but to enrich a couple of already wealthy magnates. Now Fall assumes an injured air and says he finds it “more or less humiliating” because the public points a finger of scorn and suspicion at him because he failed to protect the public’s property and interests when he was the public’s servant. More or less humiliating! * \ To whom more, and to whom lessf \
PSYCHOLOGY IN BUSINESS NEW FACTOR Big Concerns Could Save Thousands Yearly by Use of Modern Science, BY WATSON DAVIS 1 IFE in its everyday reality is t ; a matter of human nature re.i?2?J gardless of how poetically we may view this existence. People turn this earth into a world. Behavior and intelligence play such crucial ports in all human activities it is startling they have received so little real Scientific consideration. Engineers do not build bridges without knowing the exact qualities of the raw materials to be used, business men count their capital before they Invest; yet human energy and gray matter are employed and used with hardly more consideration than is given to dray horses, and usually with far less than shown pedigreed champions of the race track. New Fortune Teller In response to the deeply felt human need that has led to a long line of mystics, medicine men, seers and prophets, there is arising anew kind of fortune teller, whose stock in trade is science instead of superstition. These modem physicians to the mind use the priori method; they form their conclusions from the facts. Their science is psychology, a much -abused term, taken in vain by many mountebanks, just as medicine is disgraced by pseudo-scientists. That scientific, psychology is one of the most promising sciences cannot he doubted, after learning what has been done already. Business is so much a matter of personality and capabilities that psychologists promise much of its mysteries will disappear when psychology Is applied and used. The American Academy of Political and Social Science has Just Issued In its annals a rather wonderful collection of prophecies and statements by leading psychologists that leaves one eager to see every factory, store and school with its consulting psychologist. Could Save Millions For Instance, Dr. J. McKeen Cattell, dean of American psychologists, who published the first measurements of individual differences which delineated the present path of progress, is confident that transportation com panics could save tens of millions of debars a year and at the same time have happier employes by the use j of the present psychological tests and by research to perfect these tests. He says: “There are three types of people intergrading, but often well deflnied—those most. satisfied and competent when dealing, respectively with persons, with material objects, and with abstractions such as words and figures. The clerks, bookkeepers and stenographers are concerned with words and figures; conductors and pursers must remember faces, be obliging, ready to answer questions, interested In the affairs of the passengers; these traits are die qualifications for motormen and j engineers, who should be concerned ' about objects and machines. By a i rough natural selection those tend to become clerks, conductors or engineers who arc best suited for the work, but probably over 10 per cent of the employes could be transferred w Ith an average Increase of more than 10 per cent In efficiency; new employes could he assigned work for which they are best fitted.”

HARD COAL BILL WOULD HIT BARONS Measure Will Show Temper of Governors Throughout Nation. By HERBERT QUICK mF ALL the Governors of the States which use anthracite coal would get back of a good bill for the regulation of the hard coal industry-, they- could put it through Congress. Or, if it should fail, it would put Congress and the President In a place where we could look into their minds and see the wheels go round. And that would be a fine thing. Governor Plnchot of Pennsylvania has sent out a test for Governors. It is in the form of a bill which will he introduced in Congress for the regulation of the anthracite coal industry. Is Anti-Freezing Hill It is an anti-freezing bill. It is an anti-fuel robbery bill. He sends It out in pursuance of a task laid on him by' his coal conference held some time ago. It has teeth. It declares the hard coal Industry affected with a public bite re st. It would make every dealer and producer of hard coal take out a license. It would set up anew branch of the Interstate Commerce Commission. It would deal with profits of everyone handling the coal, from the mine and the railway that hauls it clear down to the man who delivers it at your door. It provides for heavy fines and terms in prison for violators. If regulation can bring about that justice which will keep the people from suffering from lack of j fuel and from being robbed by' fuel I extortions this Pinchot bill will do It.
Measure Legally Sound It is not a slap-dash measure in a spasm of Indignation or with a desire for the limelight. The governor has sent out with it to each Governor a brief showing that It is constitutional. Home board of excellent lawyers has drawn this bill. And every Governor is provided with citations to authorities so he can prove for himself that this bill is legally sound. We shall see now what sort of men these states have for Governors. They will have to line up with the people or with the “lndustro flnan (lal” lielrarchy, as Amos Pinchot calls it, which is back of the coal trust. It may be the people will note and remember the result of this test as to the sort of men they have as Governors It is important. It is, In fact, crucial. We owe Governor Pinchot,thanks for giving us a chance to see whether we have in our gubernatorial chairs real men or cappers for the predatory interests.

" Difference (Newcastle Courier) The difference between Santa Claus and the letter carriers Is that the carrier's season of lugging a pack lasts fifty-two weeks. Difficult (Rockville Republican) It is pretty difficult beforehand to make any sort of guess as to what Congress will do, just as in the case of Juries. One thing, however, is sure—if the Congress desires to make itself solid with the people it will lose no time In reducing tax<s so far as possible. Safety Valve, (South Bend News-Times) A good-sized family row, now and then. Is the safeguard for the family. Permanent (Ft. Wayne News-Sentinel) Many women are hard to please.

It is also found in very young plants. It is marly always found in the outer seed coat. In the Orient, where rice Is one of the main articles of diet, the disease of bori-berl developed rapidly in recent years. Thousands died of what was once thought to be a mysterious epidemic affecting the ngrvous system. It was discovered that European milling processes were responsible. These processes caused the rice to be polished. The polishing rubbed off the outer coating and the outer coating contained vitamine B. The lack of vitamine B in a diet composed principally of rice caused beri-beri. The cure was found to be merely some of the. discarded rice polishings. One of the symptoms of beriberi was neuritis in a marked degree. Because of its curative properties in this respect vitamine B is also called the antl-neuritle vitamine.

Animal Facts
The rare and queer penguin of the South Polar regions’ is a Samson among birds. Sometimes specimens are encountered that weigh 75 or 80 pounds, and the muscles covering their breasts contribute more than one-third of their entire weight. One captured and taken aboard an exploration ship not long ago knocked out a dog with its flipper-like wings and then challenged five men to struggle before It was subdued. With the aid of their flipper wings they can jump three feet straight up in the air. This is the method they employ when they leave the water for the ice or land. A daring scientist has discovered that bees are color-blind They cannot distinguish between red, black, blue, violet and purple, and yellow and orange to them are the same as green. They have one advantage over mere man, however, and that is that they can see the rays of ultraviolet light which are invisible to our eyes. Also, the same scientist says bees find their way home by experience. The longer they live in a certain hive in a certain place, the easier it is for them to find it after being away. Move the hive a few feet and the bees may find it in a few days or they, may not get there nt all.

Republican regulars of the Ways and Means Committee stick by the' Mellon plan, wiih its advocacy of a 50 per cent cut in the taxes of the extremely rich.

Immigration Restrictions Hearings before the House immigration committee this week indicated friends of severe restrictions against immigration are far more numerous than advocates of less stringent rules. How the new restrictions are to be applied has not been determined. The present immigration law expires on June 30, 1924.

Democrat, Montana, regarding details of his Teapot Dome oil lease, Harry F. Sinclair professed not to know about many important phases of bis own business. Unconvinced, the committee gave him a week to refresh his memory and assured him he would have a chance to explain matters. Former Secretary of the Interior Albert B.

Fall’s explanation came by letter.
