THAT the criticism OF the technique of
psychoanalyss is lay rather than
= professional can readily be deter
mined by talking with the man in the street
and with the physician. While the latter
may not use tho new method in his own
practice. he is inquiring rather than de-
nouncing and II would seem that he might
easily be converted. Quite different is the
attitude of the ordinary person, who isn't or
thinks he isn't neurotic, toward Prof. Sig
mund Freud and all his discoveries. 1t is
and his mind, far from being receptive, is
distinctly hostile.
In fact it is hardly too much to say that
people who are in fair mental and physical
health. people who enjoy life naturally and
care as much for poetry as they do for SCI
ence-and no more-anathematize Freud and
Freudism. They are in the tolls of prejudice
and hug their chains. If you tell them that
ignorance is the root of prejudice they may
admit it, but they go on being prejudiced.
Opposition More Pronounced
In England Than in America
The spread of psychoanalysis has been
wide and rapid but what it Is remains TO
most persons mysterious, and in consequence
what may almost be called a propaganda
against it is singularly inane The persons
who lombard the newspapers with letters
appear to have no sharp weapons; their
arguments are in fact personal dislikes
This kind of attack is more general in Eng
land than 1t is here. 1t repeats again and

The columns of London papers have been
hospitable to attacks of tbs kind on the
psychoanalysts, and enough OF them are
coming into print In America to make rather
timely a little effort to find out what the
American School of Psychoanalysts is doing
Certainly some degree of knowledge OF
new school of thought is essential before you
roughly wipe 1t off the slate.
DR. Smith Ely Jelliffe Is known neurolo-
sist. For ten years he has supplemented
what he had learned in the schools OF dis

F'reud's psychoanalysis. He cheerfully at

New York HERALD the significance of this
school of thought to society. A book re-
Gently published by Boni & Liveright, "A
General Introduction to Psychoanalysis," by
Freud had given DR.. Jelliffe an earlier OPP
portunity when he reviewed it. And right
off the reel the neurologist uttered series
of fiat denials:
"The writer who attacks this phase OF
science by stating that it deals only with
the relations Of sex is an ignorant liar.
The writer who asserts that Prof. Freud
il an advocate of free love is malicious
liar.
The writer who declares, as many of
them are constantly doing, that practitioners
Who use the Freudian system do so in order

their money away from them is an In

DR.. Jeiiife Tells of Principles
Existing for Millions of Years

In a preliminary explanation of Freud's
work Dr. Jelliffe said that the principles
which he had systematized had existed in
human beings for a hundred and fifty mill
ions of years and that here and there
throughout the centuries. hundreds of years
in fact. before the Christian era, one Of
them here and another there had been
enunciated by some philosopher. 1t re-

Aims Not to Ignore Repressions
But to Lift Them to Noble Plane
DR.. Jelliffe earnestly repeated that the true
object of the science, which his interlocutor
was trying to catch a glimpse of, was to
elevate mankind. To cure mental disease
was it seemed, necessary but still subsidiary.
To restore repressed things that warred
against his bodily and mental health was the
outward and visible excuse for physicians to
apply psychoanalytic processes to their
patients. And he said again that the high
aim of the science was not to ignore repres-
sions but to lift them to a noble and unselfish
plane where they would help the patient
himself to live rightly and make his living

which the other? And so high had grown

two was blurred. What Is the motive power

custom OF the people to hang them
outside OF their window on the night

opposing the levy of any local
taxes except those to meet needs
and the requirements of the poor

identical with those recently

werep laced in Jail recently for
contempt of court, following their
refusal to comply with an order
from the city council to raise tax
