Racial Equalities. Although the U. S. immigration furor over better racial stocks has subsided, interest in racial superiorities continues.

Helium, non-inflammable, although not as efficient a lifter as hydrogen, is the only substitute which he knows of, although industrial scientists are searching for others. Helium is a natural U. S. monopoly. By devious corporate interrelations and by performing an air service for the U. S. public, he expects his U. S. collaborators to get him his gas substitute...
