Science Miracles.
Fliers and Camels.
Rockefellers in Japan**
;; Polo for Mr. Coolidge.
By ARTHUR BRISBANE
__/
Selene* beats fiction, magic,
spiritualism and many of the mir
acles. Science can perform its
miracles every day in the presence
of a crowd. Miracles of witchcraft,
spiritualism, etc., require special
light, special conditions.
Men in a flying machine can’t
hear each other. The roar of the
«■ motor prevents. But with a motor
roaring a full mile above Central
• park in New York, a flyer talked
into a transmitter.
Starting a new religion today,
and trying to attract attention
would require miracles most sensa
tional.
England sends troops, battleships,
cruiser flying machines, bare-legged
Highlanders to the Sudan. That’s
a rich country, supplying raw ma
terials, and wise Britain won’t lose
it. The Nile flows through the Su
dan and Egyptians think they should
control the Nile. But, with her
flying machines, England will have
her way. ,
The old days are gone when sav
ages in the desert could defy civili
I zation. Flying machines beat cam
' els in crossing deserts.
The Rockefeller foundation, dis
tributing some of the Rockefeller
millions, will spend |5,000,000 on a
health institution in Japan. This
enterprise, which may soften Japan
ese bitterness, will carry on in
Japan work that the Rockefellers
have begun in China, fighting dis
ease, teaching people to take care
of themselves.
Fighting disease at its source is
useful to the whole world. Plagues
that strike Europe and America
often have traveled from the east.
Cholera and "Spanish’' influenza,
for instance.
Another work Mr. Rockefeller is
doing, without perhaps thinking
seriously about it. By decreasing
Asia’s death rate he is increasing
the world’s percentage of Asiatic
population.
That 15,000,000 Rockefeller in
stitute in Japan may be represent
ed by five million extra soldiers in
a war of the east against the west
100 years hence.
However, the Rockefellers, fath
er and son, both deeply religious,
probably feel that they can go safe
ly-ahead doing what they can to
save human life, leaving tha rest
to divine wisdom.
Whether providence plans to keep
Asiatic and European populations
balanced or not, it is certain that
some disasters in Asia are above
the helping powers even of the
Rockefeller poeketbook. You read
now of horrible floods in China,
“thousands ef villages under water,
10,000,000 facing famine.” All the
Rockefeller money could not wipe

out the effects of that single flood.
How many lives were lost by
drowning, no one knows. Chinese
statistics mean little. When they
give China’s population as 400,000,
000, they mean 400,000,000 people
of an age to work,or he taxed.
They pay little attention to the
financially useless, very old and
very young.
The great god Demos la influ
enced by little things. President
Coolidge will show political wisdom
if he denies the rumor that he is to
watch a polo game with the Prince
of Wales.
That expedition would cost votes
with farmers, who have trouble
enough getting their plows, har
rows and mowing machines over
the ground, without chasing a
wooden polo ball over it.
Wearing a solemn black scoat and
black hat in the White House, is
the wisest things President Cool
idgs can do from now until next
November.
Seve'n young men are locked up
in New Jersey for holding up a
young man and woman in an auto
mobile. They heat the young man
into insensibility, assaulted and
horribly maltreated the young
woman.
You share the indignation of the
public prosecutor who describes
“misguided old women carrying
layer, sponge and angel cake to the
men in jail.” It will disgrace “Jer
sey justice” if those young men,
after conviction, escape with less
than life imprisonment, without
possibility of commutation.
As to the old women “carrying
angel cake” to the young criminals,
they would make interesting sub
jecta for the specialists in the
Loeb-Leopold case.
