BRYAN' LECTURES ON THE -
POLITICAL GAME TOMORROW
(Continued from first nage)
Pound upon the greabaccomplishments
,attained at the recent 'conference. lie
,insists that the treaties resulting from
this International conference are In'
keeping with the peace policy of the
Democrats. Mr Bryan holds extreme
pacifist views concerning the question
of armaments He favors a greater re
duction of both the army and navy
than that accomplished by the recent
.6-5-3 ratio
Opposes Delay
Regarding the ratification of the
(treaties drawn up at the Disarmament
:Conference he said, "Why should the
!Democrats object to a treaty that car
,rles out the ideas of a Democratic tree-
AI" When the Democrats vote for the
dour power treaty they are simply
an
,p~oving theli onn policy, which the
:Republicans hate adopted. The sooner
'these treaties ale disposed of, the bet-
Jter Ido not mean to say that no res
ervations should be adopted Any res.
.ervation that any Democrat wants to
propose ,should be proposed and noted
'upon, but there should be no unneces
sary delay.
"The Democrats can take away lead
.ership from the Republicans on the
'pence issue because the Democrats are
willing to go ,farther 'than the Repub
lican leaders are in reducing the army
and navy in harmony with the Arms
tonterence"
Spouts . ,Politics
In speaking of politics, Mr 'Bryan
has stated that the weakest point In
the present Republican administration
is its economic policy Ho believes that
the Democrats have a splendid oppor
tunity of winning the coming congres
sional campaign

In speaking of the eighteenth amend

look for Agriculture
The second Annual Banquet of the
studente of the School of Agriculture
was staged with gratifying success last
Thursday evening in Mac Allister Hall.
Speeches were delivered hy State Secre
tary of Agriculture, Honorable Fred
Rasmussen, and by Dean IL L Watts,
Professor R. 0 Bressler of the Depart
ment of Rural Sociology noting as
toastmaster for the occasion Not only
did the banquet serve as a means of
gathering a large group of "Age-into
one group for a yearly celebration, but
the occasion has paved the way for in
creased co-operation of the students on
the Hill, both for the good of the col-
lege and also for Increased efficiency
of the School of Agriculture In serving
_ the needs of tho farmers of Pennsyl-
Nan!.
At the close of an appetizing dinner
Professor Bressler introduced the Hon.
Fred Rasmussen who Is now Secretary
of Agriculture for Pennsylvania and
who formerly served as Head of the
Dalry,Department of Penn State Sec
retary Rasmussen spoke en the sub
ject, "Opportunities in Agriculture," as
viewed from the standpoint of the col
lege graduate
Beginning with an account of the es
tablishment of the first Agricultural
educational institution, In Now Hamp
shire, and relating the steady develop
ment of the various departments that
have sprung from this basic industry,
the speaker showed that there are
manifold opportunities in the great
field of agricultural research, In co
operative ...lotion work, in lines of
business connected with agricultural
Interests, and so forth. Not only is there
a great field of opportunity for, the col
lege-trained man In lines of work re
lated to Agriculture, Mr Rasmussen
pointed out, but farming itself offers en
attractive field of endeavor, although no
man must expect to become wealthy at
that work, nor Is there any opportun
ity for acquiring wealth at teaching
Agriculture
Dean R. L. Watts of the School of
Agriculture spoke on the subject of the
supposed decadence of Agriculture in
the United States To demonstrate his
point that Agriculture is by no means
on the decline but has on the other

on'the watch for the first wild and na
tive flowers that appear in this region,
and to report them to the Department.

is a marked relation between the var

flowers, and in the occurrence of ...il

Is a very good system for a pans , se of
this kind, there are one or two handi
caps For instance, a flower may, one
year, be discovered the day of Its up-
Pearance, while another year It may
have been out for a week before dis
covery But through a long period of
yearn, this variation will not be suffi
cient to overthrow the calculations
made from the records. These are also
compared with the records of the westh
er observations for the various years,
so that the variation of blooming to
the variation of the weather may be
detremined.
,The four hundred students in the
Department of Botany are urged to
watch for the first appearance of the
Dowers, and, to report them to the de
partment, no that the date on which
the flower was,,discoyered, the name of
the person finding it, and the name of
the flower may be recorded Only the
name of the first person to report the
finding of the plant will be recorded

There is nothing that compares with elec
tricity for the economical transmission of power.
As a matter of fact, energy in any other form can
be economically transmitted only for the shortest
distances. If a power need develops, and its
location is more than a few hundred yards from
the power house, the engineer at once turns to
the electrical method for cheap and reliable
transmission
To the thousands who are living their lives in
the earlier days of the Electrical Age, it probably
seems that this situation must have always
existed. But actually, there is many a man with
no gray in his hair can recall the days when
electric light and power were literally unknown.
The tremendous electrical transmission sys
tems that have been developed during the past
thirty years owe their existence to the fact that
they are practically, as well as technically,
right. They provide cheaper power than would
otherwise be possible, and production, and the
creation of real values, always requires com
paratively low-priced power for its highest
development And the history of low-cost
power transmission is the history of Alternating
Current, and especially of the Alternating Cur
rent Transformer. For one of the great factors
in the cost of electrical systems is the cost of con
ductors—wires—and the big thing about alter
nating current is that it makes possible the use of
conductors which are within the cost-lumts which
competitive and economic conditions impose.

Stanley
Current Transformer
There is no room to discuss all the varied as
pects of this question, but it may be said that
one of the great fundamentals that has led to the
use of alternating current transmission for about
95% of the electrical systems now in use has been
its great economy, as compared to other systems,
in the transmission of power. And the trans
former, itself, is the heart of the alternating
current system.
It permits a small current, at high voltage, to
be transformed to a large current at low voltage,
or vice sersa, through the use of simple, immobile
apparatus, and thus supplies the essential factor
in electrical transmission.
William Stanley is remembered because it was
lie who commercially developed transformers of
high efficiency and satisfactory regulating quali
ties. lie brought out the first system in which
the transformers were connected in parallel,
across a constant-potential system, instead of
the series operation used by Gaulard and Gibbs.
The system embodying this principle was put
into operation at Great Barrington, Mass , on
March 16, 1886, and has been the standard
method ever since.
Thus briefly is recorded the history of an
other contribution of the Westinghouse engi
neering organization to t.ie electrical art; since
all the transformers which are made today are
built upon the seine general principles as those
first constructed to embody William Stanley's
inventions.
