Fable For The Atomic Age
Illustrates Apparent Lack
Of Knowledge About Humans
Bv HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK (. Once
upon a time there was a great
scientist named Dr. Alfonso Cor
tex. No mind like his had even en
tered the world before.
Thf day he was born he asked
the nurse if he could borrow the
hospital's microscope. He wouldn't
take his afternoon nap unless his
mother sang him a lullaby from
an algebra book.
By the time he was five he
could recite the Encyclopedia
Britiannica from memory, for
ward or backward, Including in
dex. He graduated from college
at 7 before he could play hop
scotch well.
At 10 he competed In a radio
giveaway quiz contest. They
couldn't think up a question he
couldn't answer. The network fi
nally paid him $3,000,000 to quit
it was the only way to keep
from going bankrupt. With that
nest egg the young scientist
bought himself his first pair of
long pants and dedicated the rest
of his life to science.
World VVIdt Fame
In time every branch of hu
man knowledge was Illuminated
by his brilliance. His inventions
enabled men to live 40 years lon
ger, drink all night without get
ting a hangover, get by on half-an-hour's
sleep, and earn all they
wanted by working one hour a
day.
The fame of Dr. Cortex was
world-wide. His name was a
household word In households
where people could read. But In
his old age the great scientist was
unhappy.
"There Is still evil In the
world," he said. "I must solve the
problem of right and wrong."
So he went Into his laboratory
and stayed there for five years.
Then he emerged. He summoned
the world's leading statesmen,
bankers, clergvmen, Industrial
leaders, generals, admirals and
educators to his laboratory. When
they were all assembled, he
walked Into the room carrying a
large oox.
Educate Mosquitoes
"Gentlemen." he said, "in this
box I have 3.604,385 mosquitoes.
I have bred, and cross-bred them
for five years to breed out their
vicious instincts. 1 nave reaj
them the Bible, the Koran, the
Talmud and passages from the
Philosophers. They have been
taught not to sting anyone "who
is wnoiiy good. Thev are tne oniy
trained moral mosquitoes ver
reared.
"See."
And with that he opened the
box, and out swarmed the mos
quitoes.
"Don't be alarmed," smiled Dr.
Cortex. "They know right from
wrong."
The mosquitoes began settling
on his uneasy guests. For a mo
ment there was a sudden silence,
a vast squirming, and then
"Oouch!"
"Ouch!!"
"Ouch!" "'
The famous people, slapping at
their faces, ran en masse from
the laboratory, all except a stub
born general. He walked out.
brushing the mosquitoes from his
cheek and his medals.
Dr. Cortex looked sadly around
his deserted laboratory.
There must be some wholly
good person in the world," he
said. "All my mosquitoes can't be
wrong."
Just then he felt something on
his neck.
"Ouch" cried the scientist.
Moral: Never trust an educated
insect.
