Gifts on Brussels Mayor
BRUSSELS.— Americans bearing
gifts crowded into the ancient town
hall and presented Burgomaster Jo
seph Van de Muelebroeck with of
ferings ranging from a sack of
oranges to a plastic tablecloth.
In a happy-go-lucky ceremony,
members of the United States dele
gation to the fourth world congress
of the International Junior Cham
ber of Commerce named the burgo
master “official salesman of dem
ocracy.” Delegates from 14 nations
were present.
Joseph H. Saunders of Alexan
dria, Va.,' vice-president of the
American delegation, gave Van de
Muelebroeck a leather bound vol
lume of “Documents of Freedom”
and a bound copy of George Wash
ington’s will, the latter on behalf
of the city of Alexandria.
West Virginia’s Arthur Belton pro
duced pamphlets illustrating his
state’s industrial accomplishments
and a special passport to permit
the burgomaster to “tour our little
Switzerland of America.”
Minnesota's Coope Hamon of
Minneapolis offered a canvas and
leather gun case to remind the
burgomaster that Hamon’s home
state is a “hunter’s paradise.”
With all his gifts stacked -up be
side him the mayor thanked the
Americans for their generosity and
good wishes and then gestured to
ward a table laden with wine bot
tles.
“The drinks,” he said in good
Americanese, “are on the house.”

LONDON. — Harry Gordon Self
ridge, American-born merchant
prince of London who once enter
tained Kings, died with only 1,544
pounds ($0,176) to his name.
The size of his estate was dis
closed when his will was filed
for probate! Selfridge died in May,
1947.
Selfridge made and lost two for
tunes. At the height of his career
he was a confidant of European
royalty and nobility and enter
tained lavishly on his English es
tates.
He founded the London store
that still bears his name after
he had worked in Chicago with
Marshall Field, who taught him
department-store operation. The
London store encountered financial
troubles during the depression.
‘Selfridge retired in 1939 with a con
tinuing salary of 2,000 pounds (SB,-
000) a year.

Russians Claim
Capture of First
'Baby Whale
MOSCOW—The crew of the Rus
sian whaling ship Slava reported
from Odessa that they made the
first catch on record of a live
baby sperm whale during a hunt
in the Antarctic.
Unfortunately, the crew mem
bers said, they had no proof since
the ship’s biologist ordered the
whale set free because he required
more than a ton of condensed milk
daily to stay alive. The crew’s re
port said:
The whale, which was as long as
a Moscow trolleybus, at first re
sisted all attempts by the huskiest
members of the crew to catch it.
Finally, with the aid of a winch
and rope, the whale was brought
under control. When an extra
heavy rope broke when they tried
to pull the baby whale aboard it
was decided to tow it back to
Odessa alive. But the ship’s bi
ologist ordered the whale’s libera
tion because it required daily more
than • ton of condensed milk.
Difficult Problem
Catching a baby whale ie more
or less like taking a fingerling
trout, in that" it vidlktes sound con
servation practices. Dr. Harold
Anthony, chairman of the Depart
ment of Mammals of the New York
Museum of Natural History, said.
Declaring that the capture of a
whale calf is also extremely diffi
cult, he suggested that the baby 1
caught by the Russian whalers had
probably been turned loose on that
account. The young whale could
not have been kept alive in any.
event, Dr. Anthony said. Even had
the Russian factory ship been pre
pared to furnish the estimated ton
of condensed milk a day, and to de
vise a formula and to induce the
infant cetacean to take it, the baby
would have suffered most probably
from over-feeding, he indicated.
Explaining that there are gaps
in scientific knowledge of whales,
because their submarine habits
make observation difficult, he said:
“A young whale would require
several hundred pounds of milk a
day, but I doubt that it would re
quire a ton.
Has Collection
The Museum of Natural History
has a collection of young whale
specimens, including a cast of an
infant sperm whale that found its
way into the Gowanus canal in
Brooklyn about 15 years ago, pre
sumbably by following a ship after
becoming separated from its moth
er. Whaling literature lists calves
40 to 50 feet in length found follow
ing their mothers and presumably
subsisting on milk.
The conservation of whales, made
necessary by the great efficiency
of modern methods of killing them,
is the subject of an international
convention signed at London in 1937
and revised in 1938. This agree
ment provides for an observer on
factory ships to see that the con
servation provisions, including non
molestation of calves and their
mothers, are carried out.
Russian ships, however, are pre
sumably not bound by the conven
tion, since the Soviet Union is listed
among the nations that abstained
from signing in 1938.
Tides Said Slowing Up
Planet, Extending Day
WASHINGTON—Tides raised ’ by
the mpori in the earth’s liquid core
are slowing the planet’s revolution
and increasing ' the iength of the
day. This , thesis is, advanced in a
report * prepared . fpx the official
organ of the , British association for
the advancement of science by Dr.
W. M. Elsasser of the University of
Pennsylvania.
It long has been known that the
length of the day is increasing by
a minute fraction of a second each
year. This generally has been at
tributed to the frictional drag of
tides in shallow seas, the Bering
sea alone accounting for almost
half the effect.
However, it also is known that
the core of the earth is liquid in
a strange form—iron at an enor
mously high temperature but un
der tremendous pressure. But it
would respond like water to the
pull of the moon, Dr. Elsasser says.
These internal tides act like
brakes on the earth’s rotation, he
explains. This theory, he says, sat
isfies the observed rates better
than if the retardation were as
cribed to the drag of sea tides
alone. The theory assumes that the
core of the earth is rotating some
what more slowly than the shell and
that there are areas of tidal turbu
lence, essentially storms inside the
earth.
The idea of drag due to inter
nal tide 6 receives support from
long-time records of changes in
the earth’s magnetism in local
areas, recently published by the
terrestrial magnetism department
of the Carnegie Institution of
Washington. These indicate a dif
ferent rotation rate for the core
and the crust and a gradual dis
placement of the latter from East
to West. It is almost-as if there
were two rotating planets, one in
side the other.
