TOs^Week By Arthur Brisbane Never ‘Something for Nothing’ Nearer Perfect Eigger Returns A Surprise for ElyaK. No Population Scare. Charles Fox offers to the United States Government an engine that “consumes no gas or other fuel and runs forever.” The inventor says, “You just start her up and let her flicker,” and he thinks it will bring mil lions. It won’t bring a cent. A Power wiser than Charles Fox, wiser even than Calvin Coolidge, won’t aliow us to get “something for nothing.” That would be bad for us. Therefore there is no per petual motion, nothing worth hav ing, for which we don’t give effort and value in return. It pays to develop a perfect thing, from cows to radio. Mw. H. McK. TwomMy, of New Jer sey, owns a Guernsey named Langwater Fairy, No 97979. She looks like any other cow, but gives three times as much milk, four and u half time if as much butter fat as the average cow. Her amaz ing record just announced is 18,605 pounds of butter fat in one year. In that kind of prosperity tjjere is no speculation, no manipulating, just plain, simple production of wealth through intelligent attention to breeding Daily the radio offer* something new. This time it is "broadcast ing church music for rural wed dings." The bride, trembling, will give the last poke at her hair, the fast tug at her veil. The sexton will “tune in," and up she will march, in Farmingdale, N. J., to the tune of "Faithful and True,” played in Chicago, 111. Florida says, “Come." The rich will answer, “I’m hurrying." Have you an income? Florida offers you attractions,over and above the fine climate. Florida intends to put into her constitution a provision that will exempt incomes and in heritance Jroig all taxation. This is 'int£hffD<f|bs‘ *'a courtesy to pros perous people from the North.” They will appreciate it. No death tax on inheritance, no State tax on income! Oli,*joy! Oh, rapture! Florida says, “Come to Florida. Here your income is all yours to spend. We chop or? nothing and your heirs get ail you leave them when you die. We won’t tax dead men.” A long time ago Elisha “took hold of his own clothes and rent them in two pieces,” when he saw Elijah go up in “a chariot of Are and horses of fire.” What are Elisha and Elijah, now in heaven, saying to each other ns they see the Right Reverend Harold Roberts Carson, Bishop of the Epis copal Diocese of Haiti, calmly rid ing from one parish to another in a flying machine ? The navy lends him the flying machine and he visits places otherwise inaccessible. All that men can IMAGINE they can DO. Dr. Pearl, professor of biometry and vital statistics at Johns Hop kins, says our population will be 197,00(1,000 in the year 2100. That wiH be out* maximum and then will come a decline. With all due respect to the learned professor, any child could make as good a gues3. Dr. William Allen Pusey recent ly told the American Medical As sociation that population would reach 175,000,000. And “with that density of population, the pressure of existence will become so strong that the death rate, particularly infant mortality, will overtake the birth rate." That is another poor guess. Under intensive cultivation, as it is now understood, the State of Texas alone could feed the earth’s entire population, and that is at least sixteen hundred millions. There will be a thousand million human beings in THIS country, infinitely happier, richer, better off in every way, than any popu lation that ever has lived. In 124 years, since 1800, our population has risen from 5,000,000 to 112,000,000. What is the use of guessing what will happen in the next 120 years? It would have been impossible to guess how many people this country could feed be fore harvesting machinery was in vented. Impossible before the ar rival of the tractor. Lack of food won’t limit popula tion. Men’s brains will always provide for their stomachs. But a higher race will gradually pro duce fewer children. Disease breeding cities will bo broken up by the flying machine, taking us to live on mountain tops, where there is fresh air. These mountains are not to be forever uninhabited.
