...United States which this crisis has wrought, things are not as hopeless as they might have been. An excellent opportunity presents itself to remold world alignments, to inject an element of mutual confidence into world diplomacy, and to strengthen the United Nations. Poland and Hungary have shown that bipolar conception of contemporary world history no longer fits the facts. Russian support of the United States in the United Nations has buoyed this hope. While the metal is hot, President Eisenhower must help to forge bonds of East-West cooperation to replace the blackjacks currently being laid about...
...showing relationship to the simplest animal and yet having the chlorophyll (the green pigment in plants which in the presence of sunlight is responsible for photosynthesis, the union of carbon dioxide and water to form carbohydrates, plant food) of the plant. George Washington Crile, Cleveland bio-electrician (author: A Bipolar Theory of Living Processes), has further united the two by emphasizing the irritability of plant life, its similarity to the nervous system of the animal...
...Berger was looking for electrical brain waves. Although for 50 years similar experiments have been performed on animals, this was the first time a man had been subjected to such difficult research. From such experiments Dr. George Washington Crile of Cleveland developed his bipolar theory: the brain is the positive pole, the liver the negative pole of the body (TIME...
Report of further experiments to prove his bipolar theory of life came from Cleveland's Dr. George Washington Crile. He considers that every living cell is a tiny electrical cell, that the body is a battery with the brain the positive pole and the liver the negative pole (TIME, Aug. 30. 1926). Last week he reported that he had found that every living cell has a definite electrical potential, or tension; that as that potential decreases the cell becomes enfeebled until it dies. When an electric current with a potential opposite to that of a cell is passed through...
...applications to the principles involved. Sleep permits the brain to re-establish its positive load of electricity.* Such facts pertinent to a conception of life as an electrical phenomenon, Dr. Crile, with the editorial aid of his laboratory coworker, Amy F. W. Rowland, has collated in his book, A Bipolar Theory of Living Processes, just issued by Macmillan's ($5.00). His thesis is far from dogmatic. "We concede that our thesis has not been finally proven. Final proof is lacking regarding practically every point. We concede that the bipolar theory would fail to explain living processes if any other...
