(UP) The Moscow In stitute of the Brain expects through Its researches to solve the riddle of why some persons stand out suffici ently from their fellow men so that they are called "geniuses." The Institute has been busy col lecting the brains of well-known men and women who have died In recent ycara for Its studies. It happens that most of the brains received hsve been those of communists, but the Insti tute would have no scruples against examining the brains of bourgeois leaders If It could get them. The prize of the Institute's collec tion Is the brain of Vladimir llyttch Lenin whose embalmed body on the dnlly n Its huge mausoleum on the Red Square and so much does the Institute think of the possibilities of uncovering the sources- of the power that went Into the making of the Russian revolution, that It has set side a whole department where Lenin'a brain Is minutely studied. Recently the Institute received the brain of Clara Zetkln, the aged Ger man revolutionist, who once opened the relchstsg with a speech denounc ing the Nazis. The first step In studying a brain, before It Is subjected to microscopic examination, Is to cut It Into nearly 15.000 shreds of extreme thinness. The researches seem to show that the explanation for high Intellectual capacity Ilea In pecularltles In struc tural r els ton of different regions of the cerebral cortex.

(Associated Press Photo) T CAMPAIGN DM In connection with the forthcom ing "forget-me-not" sale to be spon sored by the Disabled American Vet erans of the World war. November 9 to 12. the Jackson county chapter today called attention to the two following pleas for support: My Dear Commander McQueen: The annual Forget-Me-Not cam paign of the Disabled American Vet erans Is worthy of generous public support. There Is ample evidence that the use of these contributions in main taining a free Rehabilitation Service to assist disabled men In prepara tion and presentation of their claims has been helpful to both the veteran and the government. May I offer my commendation of the stand of your recent national convention at Cincinnati In decid ing not to press immediate redemp tion of the Adjusted Service certifi cates until the condition of the treasury warrants such action? Fur thermore, I believe the D, A. V. has acted wisely in concentrating its at tention to the cause of those whose disabilities aro traceable to their war service. 'It is my earnest hope that your forget-me-not campaign will be wholly successful. Very sincerely yours, FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT. I know of no finer effort than the effort of the Disabled American Vet erans of the World war through Its forget-me-not campaign. It is a privilege to commend this unselfish effort to all concerned in hope that the response will be most success ful. FREDERICK STEIWER, U. 8. Senator from Oregon.
