Gregor Mendel published in 1866 f the results of studies in heredity imp which the flowers of his mon- astery garden had provided the material. Though Mandela obser- vations had no such sensational efleot upon the sciences as Darwin's bold hypotheses, he did lay the foundations and supplied the lab- oratory methods for the science of genetics which have since developed more baffling, and therefore, fas- cinating, problems than almost any other. Into these problems the lay public gets few [glimpses except through such a by-product of the geneticists laboratory as Luther Burbanks wizardry with plants. The layman is, therefore, in no position‘ to know what he ought to think of attempts to apply genetics to human relations through what are describ- ed as cugcnio principles —whether he should take such efforts very solemnly or whether he should class eugenics with astrology and alchemy and get. facetious when the subject comes up. g l _ With a Genetics Congress due to open shortly in Ithaca, the por-

At any rate the situation to- day is that the Canadian National Railways owes the National Trcas- ury $1,250,000,000, which might as well be written off, and that the public treasury is, in addition, committed to payinginterest upon another $l,300,000,000. 1n 1931 the taxpayers had to find $98,000,000 for interest and capital account, though this year, by drastic econo- mics, this bulden on the country will be greatly reduced.

The British Government has been extremely anxious to have the United States attend the World Economic Conference in London. To: what has happened is that the

lUnited States has been asked w lpraotioally dictate the question the Conference is to consider. Some ‘months ago Mr. Neville Chamber- lain observed that he could not see how a. world economic confer-

ence could get anywhere if it ex- eluded a question so obviously concerned with world economic

conditions as war debts. Mr. Cham- berlain was undoubtedly right, and any conlerence that attempts to ig- nore the reiatlonship between ta- riffs, governmental debts and for- eign trade is not likely to achieve much.
