Solving Own Problems
Thus American youth, setting the

seeking to solve its own problems

This is the view expressed by Prof.
Ernest w. Burgess, Of the sociology
department of the University Of
Chicago.
Romantic love-" Prof. Burgess
declares. sis really an American
product.
"There seems to be no doubt that
romantic love has from an early
period been accepted as the sole
basis for marriage By practically all
classes in this country"
Public Likes Contrasts
In America, he adds, love has

And they kill, he says, not for
money or power or lust, but because
of sex insults.
women have a different slant on
the sex question then men," says
DIR. Hall. 'and the untoward loss of
their lover is sufficient to provoke
the most civilized of women to kill.
THE killing complex may Turk
in man or woman. but woman. more
governed by impulse, is much more
likely to kill when provoked. while
man. except in the heat of passion,
usually resorts to legal measures"
The reason for lady killers? Or.
Hall believes, that women, being
essentially homogeneous, feel they
are the sole possessor when they
love a man, and so it is they seek re
venge when he wanders or is taken
from them
DR.. Hall commented especially OH
the case of Pauline Plotka, who
killed her sweetheart, DR.. Anton
Jindra.
A little dress designer making $S5
a week, she had helped him In OBJ
tanning a medical education. The
second time they met. she testified,
they had become engaged. Then
Miss Plotka learned, after eight
years. there was another woman"
When she reproached the doctor
about it he laughed at her. So she
killed him. ,... ...,
Jealousy to the point where she
would rather exterminate the loved
one than see him intrenched in the
affections Of another woman was the
cause. DR.. Hall says.
