Or Is
It Vegetation?
Asks Astronomer
British Star Gazer Doubts Pick
ering's Discovery of Cactus
and Sage Brush on Moon.
By Sir Frank Dyson
Auwiwf BoraJ of Great Britain.
London, Jan. 31. I have my
doubts about the supposed discov
ery by Professor Pickering of Har
vard observatory of vegetation on
the moon.
I know Professor Pickering. He
has a splendid atmosphere for his
work In the West Indies; he works
hard; he comes of a talented fam
ily; one of his brothers is at the
head of one of the best observatories
in the world but this "discovery"
of plants, like sagebrush and cacti
on the moon. Is highly speculative.
Professor Pickering believes the "cra
ters" on the moon are formed by vol
canoes, whose eruption has left some
Tater in these hollows In the form of
snow or hoar frost. He maintains that
during the lunar day the floor of these
hollows gradually darkens, a change pf
color which can only be accounted for
by the growth of vegetation.
The professor admits that tho won
derful symmetry of these circular craters
suggests they were made by falling
metqrs rather than by volcanoes. In
fact they exactly resemble the hollows
made by bombs dropped by aeroplanes.
If this is so, the bottom of Professor
Pickering's argument- is knocked out at
once.
Again, Professor Pickering asserts
that "observations made at Greenwich
during occultations of the moon show
that a tenuous atmosphere actually ex
ists on the surface othe moon." It is
going too far to say that. Greenwich
never demonstrated this.
Little weight can be attached to the
argument that sagebrush and cacti
would not. be likely to be created if
there were no animals to eat them.
The conclusion of the matter la that
Professor Pickering has three times
called attention to his theories, in 1915,
1317 and" 1919, and yet no astronomers
have thought it worth while to devote
attention to them.
AS for Professor Goddard's idea of im
proving on the big Bertha that bom
barded Paris, by means of a shell con
taining successive charges of explosive
and firing a. similarly constructed rocket

TO INSPECT OFFICE
Commenting on the investigation to

inite assertions, but he did say such
inspections were made annually and
that It had been nearly a year since
the last one was held in Portland.
Two postofflce inspectors from an
other district conducted the investiga

resignation, according to Barclay. These
men are now In San Francisco.
It is believed that Myers sent his resig
nation to Washington two days ago,
following a request for such a step from
the higher authorities.
Robert H. Barclay, inspector-in-charge
for the Pacific Northwest postal district.
assumes charge of the local postofflce

the Portland postofflce will be made

learned for the first time today by a
representative of The Journal. Myers
has steadily maintained a Sphinx-like
attitude of silence, refusing to comment
one way or the other.
Inspector Barclay would not state at
what time he would take over the duties
of postmaster, declaring it was a matter
for Myers himself to reveal. Barclay

Portland's Boy Scouts joined the
Near Kaat relief movement today
when they went to Vancouver in
regular army transport wagons fur
nished by Colonel Koester, to at

into the water at 12:30 and at 10
the Scouts had assembled at Broad
way and Yamhill In force. Such
yelling and cheering has seldom
been heard.
All were enthusiastic for help for the
suffering Armenians because one of
their number, Nersess Cartozlan, an
Armenian boy. only lately reached Port
land after fleeing from the Turkish
atrocities which his people have suffered
for generations.
The Bearport, when outfitted, will
carry a 11,000,000 cargo of Northwest
flour direct .to the mouth of tho Eu
phrates river, for distribution among
the starving. Mrs. C. L. Lam son of
Seattle, who was born In Armenia, was
delegated to ride with the ship down
the ways and wave the flags of her na
tive and adopted countries. Mrs. Mabel
J. Stewart, garbed as Columbia, was
named sponsor.
The United States Grain corporation
and the G. M. Standifer Construction
corporation, builders of the ship, are
cooperating to get the relief supplies
into the Mediterranean and to the suf
