Are Men Emotional

The old question of whether men or women
more intelligent is giving way to the question OF
whether women emotional
The development of laboratory methods of measur-
inG intelligence, enabled the psychologists demon
strate that in general there is difference between
men, taken as a class, and women class.
The idea that emotional than
men has persisted. And psychologists are turn
ing their attention to this subject.
DR.. Donald A. Laird and Dr.. Thomas McCiumpha
of the Psychological Laboratory of Colgate University
have undertaken study Of the alleged differences Of
emotion between sexes.
These two investigators conducted with 600
college and 400 college
These tests revealed greater emotional instability
among the women than among the men,
But despite the results OF the tests these two
investigators unwilling to believe the matter
settled and come forward themselves with valid
objections to any general opinion based their
own tests.
First of all, they call attention to the fact that
their tests dealt entirely with college people ami
they raise the question whether it might not be a
fact that the women who are most likely to go to
college the who are the most emotional.
to the Investigators language, possess the
greatest emotional instability.
This is fact that can be settled only by com
parative tests between college and non-coegc
women.
A second question raised by the investigators is
whether an emotional difference between men and
women may not be entirely the result of training
and in no way inherent difference. They call
attention to the fact that almost from birth, the
training of girl differs from that given boy.
Laird and McClumpha have also set about investi-
eating insane asylum figures as means of COM
pairing emotional instability which is so extreme
to result in insanity.
They find that in general the ratio of asylum in
mates in comparison to population, is higher for
men than

BY DIR. HUGH S. CUMMING
Surgeon General, United States
Public Health Service


OF all the animals which man
uses for food the pig is probably
the most voracious.
Pork, because of its excessive
amount of fat, has a high fuel val
ue but is difficult for many diges-
tions. 1t should not be served on
hot day. 1t is heavy. rough feoi
for the out-of-door worker, for the
man who, because of the physical
effort required by the nature OF
his work, needs food rich in fuel
values.
All pork products should be cook
ed thoroughly.
Trichiniasis, more genera ~
known as trichinosis, is common
and important disease Of hogs read
lily communicated to man. 1t is
produced by an animal parasite
called Trichinella Spiralis, Il round
worm which lives it's life cycle in
the hog, in the rat or in man.
1t has been estimated that from
to per cent Of American hogs
are infected with this parasite.
Rapid Growth
When infected meat is eaten and
these muscle cells are broken up
and dissolved in the stomach, the
larvae are set free and enter the
intestines, where they find condi-
tions which favor rapid growth.
Within two or three days these
larvae develop into full grown
worms.
These young parasites finally i'm
bed themselves in the muscles
grow ranidly in size, take on their
spiral form and soon begin the
formation Of cyst. Cysts occur
usually about a month after in
fection.
The Bismarck tribune., 1925-10-17
COOK ALL PORK PRODUCTS
THOROUGHLY

The worms do not persist in the
intestine for long. They usually
disappear within five or six weeks.
A hardening around the cyst in
the muscles frequently takes place
within six months after the infec-
tion. Parasites may remain alive
for many years.
If the host does not die these
parasites will finally be absorbed
or themselves become hardened. if
they are sufficient in number,
death may take place within a few
days.
The acute form of the disease is
serious and is characterized in man
by two stages, the first, or CASTRO
intestinal stage, and the second,
the stage of general infection.
The symptoms of the general in
fection stage are fever and intense

for trichiniasis is about one-ha.lf
Of typhoid fever.
Pork Sausage
Perhaps the greatest danger of
all from trichinae turks in pork
sausage.
Trichiniass is easily prevented.
The organisms can be destroyed and
the infection prevented by proper
ly cooking all pork products. A
temperature of 100 degrees Fab
renheit kills the parasite.
Pork properly cooked, therefore,
may be eaten without danger of
Infection. Fresh pork should be
cooked until it turns white. Pork
which is red in color at the center
Of the piece or near the surface is
not thoroughly cooked.
Dry salt pork, smoked pork and
picked pork. provided the curing
process has been thorough, are, as
rule, safe so far as trichiniasis
is concerned

tration means anything like that,
it means also that there is some
thing radically wrong in the whole
organization Of our defense forces.
Probably there is not ranking
admiral in the navy who could per-
sonally repair q motor-driven ship,
either, or break any records per-
sonally pointing 2O-inch gun.
But admirals understand the
problems of these improvements,
and appreciate their importan ce.
They are merely bigger ways Of
doing the old things.
If they can take the same atti-
sonal flying skill is not imperative.
Flying is a young mans game.
Planning and organizing. whether
Of flying or anything else, is an
older mans game.
If the naval and military heads
are not mentally flexible enough
for this, neither are they for any
other new problem.
Unless seniority will work for the
air service, it should be abolished
or modified for the other services
also.
"What you can't settle, post
pone," is the rule Of diplomacy. 1t
is all that the French debt scttls-
ment has accomplished.
For the present we get the twen-
ty millions we were already getting
as interest on the postwar debts
for goods actually purchased and
delivered. and enough more to be
an acknowledgement Of the rest Of
the debt, but scarcely to be sub
stantial payment on it.
Since there was no prospect of
getting any more, at this time. that
is satisfactory enough. But it
leaves still open. for some future
government Of both countries, to
attack the real question.
AboTt al that has been accorl-
p'.shod is to make it clear chat If
ut offer to remit half o. The French
debt, which, IN effect, We did, we
think We have conceded something,
while if We demand payment of any
of it. the French think we have ex-
torted something.

tries. On the facts, we are no

The difference between the ac-
ton of the Intcrparliamentary I'm
ion in excluding Mary MacSwiney
and Of The American government
in excluding Saklatvala illustrates
the right and the wrong way to DO
such things.
Miss MacSwiney, who had elect
ed herself a delegate to represent
the imaginary government OF the
non-existent Republic Of Ireland,
was excluded by the assembly it.
self, which necessarily was the
Judge Of the credentials of its own
III mhers
The action was taken after con-
sultation with the actual govern
ment of Ireland. on its assurance
that she did not represent it and
had never been chosen member.
Mr.. Saklatvala, who was a duly
accredited member, was excluded
from an international body which
happened to be meeting on Ameri-
can soil, on the ground that he was
not a welcome resident of America.
He was not coming in that ca
pacity. He was coming to the in
ternational meeting, to represent
nation in whose parliament he
sits, without protest from his own
country.
He should have been admitted, on
the principle Of diplomatic immu-
nifty. Otherwise ths Interparlia-
mentary Union can never meet free
ly anywhere, if its membership is to
be subject to the censorship of the
host nation.
Suppose it were to meet in Con-
stantinople, and Turkey were to
exclude any American member who
was q Christian!
The postmaster general can not
personally fly an airplane. Neither
can his first assistant, or anyone
