TALKS ON SCIENCE
land MATER|AL|SM
Prof. McDougalI, at Toronto,
tet
=, Discusses Ancient and
? Modern Theories.
by DIR. EDWIN e. sLOssON.

TORONTO, August S.-The bank
ruptcy of the scientific materialism of
the nineteenth century was the theme
of Prof William McDougalls prest-
Dental address to the psychology
section of the British Association for
the Advancement of Science today.
In the days of Spencer, Huxley, Tyn-
dall and Weismann it was held that
life and mind. as well as the inani-
mate world. could be completely ac-
counted for on the physical princi-
Piles that determine the action of a
machine. Every atom of the brain
was then supposed to pursue it's pre-
determined course, impelled by phys
ical forces.
But if the mind could not exert
brain without violating the law of
the conservation of energy, conscious
ness, which seems all-important to
U.S.. must be an idle and superfiuous
accompaniment to chemical processes;
The modern view of the physical
universe as set forth by Einstein,
Eddington and Soddy is very differ
cnt from and less embarrassing than
the old mechanical conception, for.
as the speaker said, the atoms are
gone, matter has resolved itself into
energy, and what energy is no man
can tell, beyond saying it is the pos
siblity of change, of further evolu-
ton
Duty of Modern Psychologist.
The modern psychologist, according
to Prof McDougall. should postpone
consideration of the old physical and
metaphysical puzzle and start out
from two indisputable and practical
facts:
First, that sometimes men do ere
ate new things in art, science and
literature; and. second, that when a
man strongly desires an end and per-
ceives certain bodily movements to
he a means to that end. those move
ments follow upon that desire and
that perception.
The most fundamental need Of
psychology" said Prof. McDougall, lis
the adoption without reserve of the
conception of purposive striving as
valid. useful, nay. BILE, and.
therefore. true. We should now cas-
lily find the courage to be anthropo-
morphic in describing man." In short,
he holds that it is time that psychol-
ogistS should cease initiating the
methods of the other sciences and
should boldly claim "self-determina-
ton" or, ''at any rate, dominion status
for their science"
McDeugalrs Early Training.
William McDougall came to Harvard
in 1920 after training and experience
in the universities of Manchester,
Cambridge, oxford and Gettingen. and
he has made the chair of psychology
a factor in American thought, as it
was in the days of his predecessor,
William James. He criticizes with
equal energy all three of the leading
schools of psychology. the behavior
lists, the introspectionists and those
who attempt a compromise by adopt
ing both these opposing points of

MARYLAND APPLE CROP
SHORT

A crop of 1,s45.000 bushels OF
apples is forecast for Maryland this
year by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture ON basis Of
growers reports as Of September /.
according to statement given out by
John s. Dennee. federal crop statis-
tician at Baltimore; and Of this total
it is estimated about 100000 barrels
will be commercial. Total produc-
tion last year was estimated to be
100000 bushels. 100000 barrels
of this total it is estimated moved
into consuming channels.
The Delaware crop is estimated to
be about 100000 bushels ON basis
Of September condition as reported
by growers-about the same as 1928
production in Delaware.
Apples in northern and western
Maryland counties were adversely
affected by the cold, wet spring, says
the statistician. and that prevented
proper pollination in the opinion Of
many growers. On the Maryland
eastern shore and in Delaware grow
ing conditions were more favorable
and somewhat larger crop was
realized there.

ance at hearing on October 6
charged with being implicated in the
changing Of numbers on autos before
their sale.
The charge has naturally caused
quite a sensation in our town, the
stories afloat being many and varied
but Mr.. Grason's friends here and
elsewhere are firm in the belief that
he has been made victim by Others
deeply implicated in the handling oil
cars with defective titles.
He states he received legal titles
for every car purchased, and has
been refunding money to purchasers
Of cars that have been declared by
detectives working on the case to be
otherwise.
The Investigation Of the detectives
has been far-reaching and 1t Is likely
that other dealers who have been
purchasing Ford cars from sources
other than authorized agencies will
be involved.

In the general discussion which
followed the reading Of the audit,
Mr.. Charles o. Hall stated that while
the sinking fund was too low by
$75, 900, this did not mean that any
one had robbed the county. but that
sufficient funds had not been levied;
that the irregularities In bills did
not mean dishonesty, but did show
poor business methods; that the de-
ficit in general was caused by the old
Board overspending the accounts Of
the levy, especially for roads.
In the discussion 1t was brought
out that the County Treasurer had
about $4,000 and the School Board
about $21 900 on deposit in the Seq

farmers In the vicinity OF Sassafras.
DR.. w. H. Wright, veterinary in
spector Of the Bureau. states that
the disease existed in the neighbor-
hood for two months or more and
that its spread is due to the fact that
1t was not reported or any EFFORT
made to keep 1t in check. AS cholera
is one Of the most contagious of ami

circumstances is usually extremely
rapid. However, quite a number OF
farmers in the neighborhood are hav-
ing their herds vaccinated, and it is
hoped that this, together with other
measures which are being instituted.
will check the dissemination of the
disease.
Farmers are warned to be parti-
ulariy vigilant at this period OF the
year and to, watch their herds closely
for any signs Of sickness, as 75% Of
the outbreaks Of cholera occur dur
ing the fall months. II such are
noted, veterinarian should be CALI
