i -------------- aL... a. SR THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1979 PEACE FURTHERED "BY LABOR RULE H. G. Wells Says Parly's Success Will be World Blessing = Paris.--A big square parlor, all In blue, with windoWs through which one looks down on the Seine River, with a low sofa and two big closets full of books of history, seci- ence and philosophy, in the room where H. G. Wells entertains his guests in Paris, writes Jean Lu- chaire in La Volonte. Mr. Wells {is disconcerting at first sight. He looks so surprising- ly young. He had the traditional body and face of the English "gen- tleman farmer" around 45, but Wells is more than 60 years old. Re looks solid, almost stock. But nder his large forehead his eyes are extraordinarily clear and pene- try ting. They are now ironical, then heavy, now scintillating, then pro found. The eyes of Wells are all' Wells, past and present. Predicts Labor Success I asked Mr. Wells about the re- cent , elections in Great Britain. "Without meaning to be a pro- phet,¥ "Mr. Wells said slowly, believe: the Labor party will be sue- cessful, and that success will he » blessing for Europe and for general peace." "That\ is not the opinion of a great mmmber of French statesmen and jomrnalists." I interrupted. "They rather believe that the suc- cess of the Labor party is a defeat of our difylomacy and of the poli- tics of the Entente." Wells Ahrugged his shoulders slightly. An ironical light appear- ed in his ayes. "You havf> one deplorable habit, You French people," he replied. '"That is, to judge the domestic pol- icies of other countries according to the higher or lesser degree of sympathy for France which the party leaders profess.

C. ranges for Englishmen only after a great number of other far more important problems; first of all, there is the unemployment prob- lem; and secondly, the problem of England's relations to the United States. In the third place comes the status of the British dominions and colonies such as India. You will realize those problems are vi- tal for Britain as an empire. Winds Longing For Peace "Then there is the problem of the general organization of peace which we don't want to depend up- on such or such system of allian- ces, but on a real international or- ganization. Most Englishmen ure passionately interested in peace and disarmament. Every state which arms itself too much or doesn't seem to disarm fast enougn becomes suspicious in the opinion of the British public." : "That is easy to understand," 1 said. "But how can the average man distinguish between legitimate armaments and superfluous ones!" "I don't mean to judge," said Mr. Wells. "I'm simply talking about a fact. I know anyhow that you in France may get an errone- ous opinion of England because of a certain part of the English press that expresses a class spirit, That's just the same as in France. We, too, have families where fathers and sons are army or navy offic- ers, state officials and so forth. We have many families with coun- try estates where the younger sons almost automatically chooee a ca- reer in the army, navy, the colon- ies or the civil service. '"The narrow patriotism of these men is like a religion. It is also the source of all their dignity and honors. Such a caste, I should say, is obstinately attached to the past and quite naturally opposed to any evolution toward human brother- hood and peace. Little Interest in France "Alliances with other countries, to their mind, are inseparable from inevitable wars. At present, that caste rather loves France, De you want to be proud of that fact? I doubt it. This caste, anyhow, is only a minority of the British mas- ses. I can altogether assure you that friendship or dislike for France interests hardly 1 per cent of my countrymen. If you view our politics only from the French point of view, you wouldn't get very far. "Rather you ought to wonder whether the men now in power un- derstand international needs and {| are able to act objectively in favor of general peace, whether they 'ity instead of having a liking for .|can tell it in such a way that it ?, Dood (shown in bottom pic. ture) 68 persons of 110 on board lost their lives.

"And you hope they'll be suc- cessful in government because you are interested in% the progress of peace?" "Yes." "How should men of our genera- tion try to reshape the world?" Wells smiled. Wants New Frame for Race "I want mankind to build a new frame for itself. The reyolution I propose is a more important event than the arrival of Christianny 2,- 000 years ago. The new revolu- tion. wouldn't be done in a week, with just ten men collaborating." '"" But suppose," I said, 'that some young and energetic men in every country would want to biuld up that world republic one of your latest books speaks of, don't you think they ought to get together in an organization?" Mr. Wells loloked ironical again, "We dqn't belong to quite the same generation. I gan"t get into your skin to judge the problem with your mind. I simply give you my ideas in my hooks. My books are not a Bible, but the result of many years of research and medi- tation. Don't swallow it all whole- sale, but think it over again. Only then my work will bear fruit. I[ want mankind to break the old frame to adapt man better to this earth and to have all men, work for our ahppiness. TIMES TIMES TIMES TUCKER "Every one must try to solve this problem ' in his own sphere. Psychologists and educators are do- ing research work in their line, and and so are economists and sociolo- gists. It's a tremendous edifice to which every one brings one stone. As soon as we have taught man to be man first and then a citizen ot his country, a great hig step for- ward will have been taken." "Can education help people? Schools Too Conservative Mr. Wells shook his head. "Un- fortunately, schools always or most often are conservative. They are influenced by authority and tend to transplant all traditional preju- dices to the young generation." "What's your remedy?" "Mental infection should be fought against by mental hygiene. That is a question of life and death. We must either realize that man- kind is a unit and then any optimis- tic hope is permitted; or else kill each other stupidly in atrocious ant heap wars. The role of the think- ers of our day consists of nothing less than saving mankind." are the Laborites such certain- 3 Ottawa," Sept. 5.--Astronomers at- tepyding the meeting of the American Astronomical Society at the Do- miniion Observatory here felt cramp- cd Yor room Saturday. Saturday morning they heard from Dr, \Ludwik Silberstein, mathemati- cal plhysicist 'of the Cinema Labora- tories Corporation, New York, that no two objects in the universe can be fanther apart than 9,000,000 light- years, ' A light-year is about six mil- lion million miles--the distance" that 'a beam of light would travel in a year. Thus 9,000,000 light-years could he written as a number of miles, by: the number 54 followed by 18 cipheyrs. Though such a huge figure miight seem large enough to provide all the room needed, Dr. Silbersteig's figures, if correct, will necessitatq a radical revision of some of tlye most sensational conclu- sions of #§1e astronomers in recent years, What Dr. Silberstein has done is to tk the radius of curvature of space-timie. Once it was thought that the uniyerse was infinite in ex- tent, that nol matter how far or fast, one travelled, one would never reach a boundary qr retrace one's path, * But ton changed this, Ac- cording to hin theory, as developed by the Dutch astronomer, de Sitter, the universe, ar space, in' which we live is finite apd not infinite, yet it is without boungdlary. An ant walking on a sticky billiard ball would be in a somewhat ' similar position. It could not leave: the wurface of the ball, yet could walk around it with- out coming to an end. .Eventually it would retrace its former steps, and fo would we if we went long and far enough. Thus say. the-ad- | omer Has New Plan For Measuring Universe's Distance vocates of these ideas, which are ra- ther generally accepted among as- tronomers, The chief difference between the billiard ball and our space-time, apart from size, is that the former has three dimensions while our uni- verse has at least four, These are length, breadth, and height, and a fourth that our senses are unable to perceive. Therefore we are not aware of its curvature. But Dr Silberstein, who is the author of one of the best and most difficult of the technical book on Einstein's theo- ries, has worked out a formula for computing this radius from the ve- locities of distant stars. Previously it has been thought that the circumstances of this curv- ed space was of the order of many thousands' of light years. Recent work has been done at the Mount Wilson Observatory on the spiral nebulae, distant star systems like our own Milky Way, to which the sun belongs. Their distance seemed to be as much as 140,000,000 light- years, for a group of faint nebulae in the constellation of Virgo. "There are no distances, in our space at any rate, exceeding 9,000,000 ligth years," he declared with a flash of his eyes. "Therefore the present placing of Virgo at 110,000,000 is ut- terly inadmissible." However, if his figures prove cor- rect, there will still be room for plen- tv of astronomical objects to keep the astronomers busy for a@ long time to come. "The total volume of space is great enough to leave ample room for some millions .ef galaxies comparable in size with our own Milky Way," he Ih 'critic of the recent presentation of CRITIC LIKES NEW "GALSWORTHY Hi Speaks Highly of the Story of "The Skin Game" But Points Out Defects London, Eng. Sept, b5.--"The jong deep silences of the audience, unbroken by any flutter of inatten- tion, bear witness to the play's so- lidity and to the brilliance of its craftsmanship," says the Times' John Galsworthy"s play "The Skin Game" at Wyndham"s Theatre. "When the curtain falls on an act," The Times continues, "your first thought is: 'Thank heaven for a man who can still tell a story, and holds the stage by the integrity of its main narrative being under no necessity to throw out sops." This battle between an old family and a new, between the Hillcrists ana the Hornblowers, this poisoned feud between tradition and usurpa- tion that grows beyond any man's intention, bringing with it uncon- {rollable consequences of suffering and 'hishonor is one of Mr. Gals- worthy's most successful treat- ments of a theme very near his heart. "Almost every phase of the bat- tle is good to watch. The scene in which the disputed land is svia by auction is admirable 'theatre.' Edwar Irwin playing- his part so well that the stalls cease to be stalls and become a crowded auc- tion room, spellbound by the mad bidding of the opposed factions, Young Mrs. Hornblower, whose happiness is a pawn in the game, fighting to preserve the secret oti her dead life is something much more than a prop to melodrama; Miss Joyce Kennedy communicates her suffering, reveals her charac- ter, draws imaginative sympathy towards her. The closing encoun+ ter between Hornblower and Mrs. Hillcrist when she, being merci- Jess, has him at her mercy, is a high climax, but a natural one; Mr. Gwenn's wrath in defeat and Miss Terry-Lewis's cold, scornful tri- umph are in the natures of the man and the woman whose portrais they have drawn. Finally, the hu- miliation of Hillerist in the mo- ment of his victory has a genuine- ly tragic quality for which Mr. Hannen's restraint and tenderness and dignity 'have preparedt he way. "So, at the end of each act, we are grateful for-that strangely rare thing in the theatre---a straight and full story told with austerity and judgment. "But, when all is done, the old ungracious criticism reasserts it- self. Has not Mr. Galsworthy id it on a little thick? Effect springs from cause: there are no gaps In the play; the logical sequence 1s complete. And yet--is it possible to accept, with complete accept- ance, quite so neat an arrange- ment of disaster? And is it possi- ble to be quite comfortable--Miss Jean Shepeard evidently was not-- in the restless frankness, the slangy assertiveness, the determin- ation to be modern at all costs of Jill. Hillerist. Why did she not learn deportment from her moth- er? It would be so much easier to be interested in her chatter if she would more often be still. if she would forget sometimes to call her father "Dodo," above all if we were able to feel that Mr. Galswor- thy himself had been inside her mind. But perhaps Mr. Galswor- thy's "modern girl" is our occa- gion as well as his. let us forget her and forget the little excursions in melodrama into which Charles Hornblower leads him. 'The plad stands or falls by its central con- test never fails to command the playhouse." French Ambassador Claudel at a dinner. in Washington praised indi- rect taxes "Finance," he said, "favors these taxes because they are easier to en- dure than direct taxes. They bring in more, too. "How much pleasanter to pay a tax unconsciously with every pound of sugar vou buy instead of filling out cheques for income tax and real estate tax and what not. Rupert: "Money isn't every- thing." Egbert: "Perhaps not; but everythng is nothing without it." -- And then, of course, there may be something else outside our space, in still a higher dimension, but the as- tronomers have no way of determin- ing this, and so they do not discuss it, Increase Your Weight 5 Pounds 30 Days Or Money Back Real pharmacists and chemists everywhere know that McCoy's Cod Liver Extract Tablets contam just the proven essential ingwat- ents that increase weight, create appetite, build up the power to re- sist disease and puts good solid flesh on skinny men and women.
