NsaeAaA
Women Hounded by Groundless Fears,
Due to Too Much Protection in Youth,
Noted Mind Expert Tells the City Club

in vocational matters, should be
chosen for the task"
DR.. Williams spoke on psyche
pathology, the study of mental Pc
culiarities. and psychoanalysis, the
process for correcting these aberra-
tions.
The speaker said that many
women today are bounded by
groundless fears. amounting almost
to a mania, and that these fears
usually are due to the lavishing
OF too much protection about the
persons in their youth.
TOO much protectien frequently
is thrown about our girls and wo-
men," he said. The result is that
they become burdened with fears.
II is a terrible state of mind. They
are afraid to go out at night for
fear Of being attacked. Yet the
danger they would run IL they did
go out unescorted would be only
trivial. Some of these same scary
women faced shell fire in France
and didn't even shudder."
The speaker said that sex plays
an important part in determining
the mental tone OF many persons.
The self-deprecation that many
people experience" said DR.. will
liams, frequently comes from over
restraint in childhood. This feeling
of inferiority, this fear Of the opin-
ions OF others often can be traced
to feelings of shame or thoughts or
acts related to sex. This is largely
because OF our reluctance to discuss
matters Of sex openly. II we
acquainted the young freely, openly,
unashamediy. and scientifically with
questions Of sex. this false shame
would disappear"

On the shoulders of the United
states falls the duty of world dis
armament, declared Representative
A. w. Barkley, of Kentucky. when
he spoke at the Midday Lenten
services in B. +. Keith's Theater
yesterday at noon.
The mass of problems facing the
world today is similar to a flooded
river on whose top lies congested
flotsam and jetsam. and to a pessi-
mist, said Barkley, continuing with
the simile, this river of upheaval
will never flow back to normality.
World conditions will be adjusted
when the United States extends it's
Christian spirit over the world.
Barkley said he believed God had
intended that the United States.
through its colossal power, should
enlighten the world. Rev. A. L.

said he had not heard whether they

That Senator Harding will ap-

been in session. when only a few

as evidence that the recess ap-

q later date, however. according to
the belief at the Capitol. The
amendment to the deficiency BILL
which was introduced by Senator

RENEW CHRISTIAN.
SCIENCE LITIGATION

BOSTON, Dec. I9.-Christian Sci
entists throughout the world who
thought the recent decision Of the
Massachusetts, Supreme Court would
end the bitter and long-standing
feud between the directors of their
church and the trustees of the
Christian Science Publishing Soci-
ETY., were doomed TO disappoint-
ment, for the litigation has been
renewed with added bitterness
Following correspondence be-
tween the directors and the remain
ing trustees. Herbert w. Eustace
and Paul Harvey, the latter filed
today petition in the Supreme
Court to restrain the directors
from removing them from office. A
hearing on this motion will be held
tomorrow.
The trustees declare the directors
have inspired an insidious propa-
ganda which has impaired the
financial success OF Christian Sci
ence publications and decreased
their calculations.
The factor which has complicated
the case is the fact that while the
Supreme Court ruled the directors
could remove trustees, the terms of
Mary Baker Eddy's trust give the
trustees exclusive power to elect their
SUCCESSORS so that IL the two re-
naming trustees are removed there
will be no trustees.
Eustace and Harvey Lamond Row
lands, deposed trustee. have petit
toned the court to appoint their sue
cessors. at the same time rendering
to the court their designations. and
In today's petition ask that the d.
