IKSULLISM BIG ISSUE BEFORE MAINE VOTERS
Bitter Battle Over Power > Trust Will Be Settled Next Monday. f
Bu VEA Service PORTLAND, Maine, June 15. It’s a far cry from Maine to the Chicago home of Samuel Insull, public utility magnate, but Insull is the outstanding issue in an embittered political conflict now nearing a showdown in the “Pine Tree State.” Mainly, the conflict is over the nomination of a Republican candidate for United States Senator. The cry of “Insullism” is sounding in this and several less important faces in connection with State poli- ■ cies on hydro-electric power. Senator Frederick Hale, who seeks Republican nomination for another term, is the target of the anti-Insull citizenry. His opponent Is Ralph O. Brewster, now Governor. Nomination on the Republican ticket generally is considered to assure election. The primary takes place next Monday and the regular election Septt. 10. Insull Power in State Through his ownership or control of water power sites and hydroelectric companies, Insull has come to be a “power” in Maine. But under existing legislation, hydroelectric power can not be exported from the State. The Fernald law, enacted in 1909, prohibits corporations from shipping across the State’s boundaries. Utility interests long have sought repeal of the law. In all the campaigns of this year, repeal is a fore> most issue. Governor Brewster is the Fernald law s most ardent defender,- contending all Maine’s power resources are needed for the State’s own development. Senator Hale is charged with friendliness toward the Insull interests. He opposed the recent Senate resolution for an investigation of the utilities. He also has been attacked for voting to seat Frank L. Smith of Illinois as a Senator, for opposing the Muscle Shoals legislation sponsored by Senator .Norris, for approving transfer of the naval oil reserves from the Navy Department to the Interior Department, prior to their leasing to Sinclair and Doheny, and for voting against a Senate resolution of 1925 condemning the oil transactions. Backer of Newberry Hale has been a Senator for twelve years. He is one of the few surviving Senators who voted to seat Senator Newberry. One important factor in the senatorial race is Maine’s tendency to keep her congressional representatives in office after they once get

there. Hale’s father, Eugene Hale, served many years before him, and with the exception of one term, a Hale has represented Maine in the Senate for nearly half a century. The Republican organization in the State is almost solidly behind Hale. With only one or two exceptions, notably the Portland Evening News, the Maine newspapers also are backing him. AUTO ANIMALS’ FOE Wild’Life Is Destroyed by Cars on Michigan Roads. Rll United Press LANSING, June 15.—The automobile is seen by the State conservation department as an enemy of wild life in Michigan. On a recent trip to Saginaw—eighty miles—conservation department heads saw a partridge, a fox squirrel, a muskrat and four cottontail rabbits, concrete evidence that game is being killed by automobiles. It is estimated that a bird or animal is killed for every eleven and one-half miles of highway traversed. The State department is making a concerted drive to bring' this be-

Bowlegs O. K. Science Service MINNEAPOLIS, June 15. “Every normal infant is bowlegged and every child becomes progressively knock - kneed,” stated Dr. Clifford Sweet of Oakland, Cal., to the American Medical Association here this morning. Mothers should not worry about apparent deformities of the child’s legs and, above all, force should never be used to correct them as the adult will then be deformed. The development of posture during growth is influenced by many factors, most important of which are, correct nutrition, well fitting clothes and shoes, erect habits of walking, standing and sitting, and muscle training.

FROST STUDY SAVESCROPS Citrus Growers Are Aided by Weather Bureau. Bn Science Service CLAREMONT, Cal-, June 15. Frost is one of the greatest fears of fruit growers in this part of California, as a single frosty night can nip ,and ruin, a large crop of citrus fruit. But fairly accurate forecast of such events can be made, and so give the growers warning to take steps that will prevent damage. At the meeting of the American Meteorological Society now in session here with the American Association for the Advancement of Science, Eckley B. Ellison, of the United States Weather Bureau at Pomona, told of his studies in this field. He emphasized the important part that relatively slight weather changes might play in preventing or causing a frost. “Every weather change, however

slight, bears intimate relation to the minimum temperature, or to the duration of low temperature,” he said. “Should the sky become cloudy during the night for only a short time, or should a few puffs of wind be experienced, even these conditions would- influence on the rate of fall temperature, and, consequently, on the minimum temperature. Accurate forecasts can be made only if every change of weather during the night can be predicted.” However, by the aid of certain formulas based on their experience with mdisture and other conditions as well as local geographical conditions, forecasts of frost can be made for instance, in north-south canyons, as opposed to other regions.
