Late m Drotn Andrews called and we
Talked until eleven P.M. about his Lilliman
lecture course. He is doing all the research
work during his travels having no time at
home to prepare a page for the book or
lectures. As he attended the Pan-Pacific
Congres in Japan de has constantly these
lectures in mind and gathered structural
relationships in Japan, Philippines and
the East Indies chiefly Sumatra. I am
somewhat fearful that his conclusions are
too easily attained, but upon the whole he
will not be any different from the advanced
knowledge of the structure of the Pacific
from to the followers of Edward Sues.
My work of 1906 and my Presidential Address
is in a large measure his starting point. As
Hamel geognosins around the Caribean
Shield he finds the same sort of traps in
every part of the world, and clearly in India.
Learned nothing directly today about Paleogeography.
