4 PREFERS ROBBER TO PIOUS PARENT Minnesota Professor’s Strik ing Illustration at Interna tional Eugenic Congress. LONDON'. July 30. Professor Sam uel G. Smith, of .Minnesota university, at the International Eugenics congress, declared one of tin futilities of prac tical discussion was the supposition on the part of some people that if tnarriagt were made difficult tot the unfit the rate* would be improved. But it must b< remembered said Professor Smith, that whenever marriage was made dif ficult immorality iner.ased and that maternity and mariiage were not syn onymous. Enlightened states hail agreed that the feeble-minded, the insane and the pauper must not be allowed to become parents Where the mother and father are botli feeble-minded, the child is sun to be mentally deficient. The only remedy, he said, was for the state to restrain feeble-minded women. As long as women loved strength and men loved beauty and mating was upon term.- of preference human instinct did not go far wrong "If I were to choose my own father," ■aid Professor Smith, "I had rather :a\< i robust burglar than a eonsump ive bishop." Society Suffers from Rich. Society, he continued, suffered more from the vices of the rich than the vices of the poor. Man should not be regarded as simply the highest mam mal whose breed could be improved by stock farm methods. What the world owed to invalids would provide iittile rial for one of the most remarkable treatises ever written. Referring to the phrase "criminal born." Professor Smith said in Eng land they knew what to do with these people. If they sent them to America they became founders of the first Vir ginian families, or to Australia and New Zealand, where they became prime ministers. Professor F. <'. S. Schiller, of Oxford university, dealing with eugenics in ed ucation. said is was being proved that the present order of all civilized so cieties. particularly our own, was rap idly promoting degeneration of the hu man race and not its improvement. Nowadays, he contended, social contra, selection offered manifest advantages for the survival of the unfit, but the point must come at which ancestral virtues and inherited capital could not longer Insure the survival of an effete rave of folds am] weaklings.

'ELECTRIC BRUIN' TO STOP WRECKS i “Fool-Proof” Locomotive Re ceives Warnings of Danger and Shuts Off Steam. LONDON, July 30. — A "fool-proof” locomotive is being experimented with by A. R. Angus, of New South Wales, at Watchet, Somersetshire. There are no "up” and “down” dis tance signals on the line. The engine takes up electrical messages from the rails as it travels along, and each lo comotive has what might be called an “electrical brain." The mechanism of the locomotive will determine for itself whether it is,safe or not to enter each section of the jour ney. If the section is not clear, the driver receives a signal; and if he fails to act on this the engine shuts off Its own steam and applies the brakes, and also,»by electrical communication, pre vents any other train from approach ing it too closely. Expresses are expected to be able to run at their limit of speed through dense fogs, and be absolutely protected from all risk of collision: and the train is fully safeguarded, though the driver, stoker and guard should all be inca pacitated. The system will also greatly reduce running expenses.
