Eim.tein, considered by some
the greatest mind in abstract
luathemntics since Newton, de
livers to the I'rnssian Academy
of Science a manuscript of five
y pages, dealing with. the. jnter-
nnd eleetro-dyuamies.
This new eoutrilmtiou to sci
ence is expected to revolution
i.c man's conception of the uni
Kiusteiu devoted ten years to
writing the five pages, wliich
presents the universe as exist
ing in four dimensions, instead
of only three length, breadth
nnd thickness or depth. Sci
ence assures you that there is
a fourth.
We can feel or imngine that
fourth dimension. The prcat
French mathematician,
care, snid that nft it ten
Pnin !
years
of incessant study' it man
. MffillT have a faint conception
of it.
And of nil men livinp, only
tffvne, n. British mathematician,
ul ton, is actually able to
think in the realm of four di
mensions. 'Fortunately for us, lhree di
mensionnl creatures, three di
mensions are n.f.. i 1 .
And, perhaps, the four di
mension idea will ko some day
to join the once fully accepted
"nebular hypothesis."
We know now that what Sci
ence called "nebulae" hnapin
ray stuff out of which planets
were made, are separate uni
verses, each with its hundreds
of millions of suns.
Kinp Aninniillah of Afghan
istnn discovered suddenly and
violently what American pro
hibition enthusiasts are disuov
I'l'ing slowly, that it isn't easy
to chant-'e men's habits by proc
lamation or law.

Hervlco comnitBslon, employ meth-
oa wnteh have been a constant
nourco of public irritation and He-
ourn- valuations and rates satlSfatf-
tory to It. The public service com
mission is perhaps not to blame
lor all of those conditions. '
"Whenever any matter comes
up which affects the telephone In
terests In this state, or In other
states served by this company, it
can and does bring to bear upon
the situation the pressure of the
great political ami financial Influ
ence of the bell System compan
ies. "Usually It also can enlist the
aid of a number of telephone com
l)n0B masquerading
as Independ
ent companies, but most ot which,
under cover, are controlled and
financed by the Pacific company
or some other of the Bell System
companies. It. Is a matter of com
mon knowledge that at every ses
sion ot tho legislature assembly ot
this state there Is an active and
powerful telephone lobby,"
Among other things said regard
ing the public service commission
tho report stales: "There is no
more important and responsible
position in the state government)
nono of which, gives a grenter op
portunity for public service, than
that of public service commission
er. Able men have been from
time to time, selected for the of
fice of public service commission
er. However, generally speaking,
men of ability and experience are
not attracted to the office because
of small compensation and the
handicaps to efficient work."
The report continues to recom
mend that legislation be enacted
to permit cities to fix and retulate
telephone rates and service, meth
ods and practices and all terms and
conditions upon which a telephone
company may use the streets of a
city or carry on business therein.
Telephone rates in Oregon, the
report slates, are too high and for
years the trend has been steadily
upward, while rates of some of the
major utilities have been steadily
decreasing.
Objectionable praotlces of tbe
Pacific Slates company are enum
erated to some extent. They In
clude the fixed and arbitrary in
stallation charge, which apparently
Is used as a device to raise more
revenues; the Pacific States com
pany collects lo advance for serv
ices rendered, thus placing at the
disposal of the .companies an un
earned woiklug capital of several
thousand dollars each month.
