...girl. Thus Professor Crew reasoned the shorter life expectancy of the male seems to be carried on a gene or genes in the y-chromosome. By delicate manipulations, geneticists have had some success in separating male and female elements in mammalian sperm, opening the prospect of sex control in human reproduction-provided the parents will submit to artificial insemination by sperm from which one element or the other has been removed...
...Huxley predicted at Nottingham that the old dream of eugenists-human breeding by selected males and females only-would actually be put into practice within one or two generations. Said Dr. Huxley: "When people get used to the idea they will accept it just as they have accepted birth control...
Readers who read beyond this purple lead were told more soberly that Bund leaders in more than 60 camps (chiefly near New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and San Francisco) do not actually plot a revolution, but plan "to wrest control from the Communist-Jews when they start their revolution.'' The Times's investigators said that each Bund post has its select uniformed force "drilled in the goose step and . . . ready for any emergency," and that the policies of the Bund weeklies duplicate those of the Hitler-controlled press. No direct evidence connected the Bund with the German...
Florida State Livestock Sanitary Board scheduled for last week a gigantic deer hunt. Hired hunters were to kill some 1,000 deer in the quarantined area. At this point, the Florida Deer Protective Association promptly protested, pointed out that the State could not control the hunt because no provision had been made for fencing in the quarantined area. The huntsmen also pointed out that such wholesale hunting would be unsportsmanlike. The Association got a restraining order against the State, which last week decided to postpone the hunt indefinitely...
Drainage of U. S. breeding lands had another effect. It left those regions completely vulnerable to floods and droughts. Flood and drought control measures now-being executed with CCC and WPA labor are, fortunately for sportsmen, ideal for restoring duck grounds, and vice versa. Principal engineering problem is to impound and regulate waters in rivers, lakes, marshes. Equally important is the planting of trees to help prevent erosion. Thus in the past three years 200 duck refuges have been created on previously useless land. Last year, for the first year in many, more ducks returned to the breeding grounds than...
