I Significant Results in Transmutation 1 Of Elements Predicted by Scientist SWARTHMORE Pa Dec 26 JP- JP Significant results in transmutation of the elements clements closer application of or physics to life me and more efficient use of or science in fri economics are foreseen for tor 1933 by W. W F. F G. G Swann Swarm one of oC the foremost American scientists He HeIs HeIs Heis Is director of or the thc Bartol Research Foundation of the Franklin Institute I believe that researchers on the atomic nucleus will vill be one of the main points of attack he said and andone andone one which is likely to lead to very significant results in connection with atomic energy and the transmutation of or the elements clements I think we are arc reaching the time when physics must take more account account account ac ac- ac- ac count of biolo biological cal phenomena and vice versa In other words we must be able to see the universe as a complete complete com corn whole in which the phenomena of or life arc are bound up in a consistent manner with those of or physics and chemistry It will doubtless always be desirable desir able to think practically in terms of or orone one set of or principles for vital phenomena phenomena phe phe- and another set for tor physical phenomena but we ought to realize clearly how the bridge between the two may be bc constructed if iC we should desire to construct itI it itI it I think the scientific method is going Coing go go- ing to m efficiently to the control of econOmiC mi matters The Thereat great reat difficulty here is that one is dealing with human beings who resent resent re re- re- re sent changes of procedure However the fact that one is dealing with human human human hu hu- hu- hu man beings must be taken Into account account account ac ac- ac- ac count Much false doctrine will have to be removed before a successful start can be made Perhaps one may think most impartially about the situation sit sit- by attempting to work out a scheme for an i imaginary set o of beIngs beings beings be be- ings o of which he hc would not feel a apart part In other words develop the thc matter as a purely abstract scheme
