CHRISTIANITY
IS RESPONSIBLE
FOR SEX EVILS
u. of California Psychiatry
Specialist Makes This
Statement

San Francisco, Calf, March 21.-
lAP)-Religious leaders Of Cali
fornia sat in silence here yesterday
while DR.. v. H. Podstate, psychia-
try specialist Of the University
Of California denounced Christian
ity as being largely responsible for
the sex "evils" which it condemns.
DR.. Podstate, who spoke before
the California Congress Of Religious
education, . gathering Of many de.
nominations, declared the church
had erred gravely in interpreting
the natural impulses Of sex in terms
Of sin.
Religious education interferes
with, instead of assisting. the nor
NAL development Of SEX" he said.
"Instead Of helping the child to as
simlate his sex problems on q basis
Of hygiene and intelligence, the
church interprets all his experiences
in terms Of degenercy and sin"
DR.. PodState declared that religion
in it's application to sex instincts
creates mental depression, COM
plexes and repressions that cause
serious disturbances in the life Of
the individual.
He. urged that church educators
rive early and correct information
about sex to the child to prevent his
receiving disorted and vicious i'm,

LINDY TAKES
LEGISLATORS
FOR AIR RIDES
k-e-s-ss--...
Gets Medal of Honor and Then
Continues Taxi Work
Started Yesterday

Washington, March 2l.-tP,-
Americas premier aviator, Colonel
Charles A. Lindbergh, arose today
to receive the greatest metallic
tribute within the nations liberty
to bcstow-thc congressional medal
Of honor.
1t was the last, incidentally, Of
the long list Of decorations and hon
0rs heaped upon the first New
York-to-Paris flyer before he re-
tires to pursue, out Of the focus of
the public eye, that aerial vocation
which he so admirably advanced in
importance by crossing the Atlantic
without stop, touring the United
States, flying to Mexico City, and
conducting his good will air tour
Of central America
President Coolidge, who decorated
Lindbergh on his triumphal return
from Paris last year with a medal
on the monument grounds, was Civ.
en- the honor again today to place
the coveted congressional medal on
the flyers breast at the white
house.
The youthful acronaut then was
to have an opportunity to show
anew to the nations legislators
Just how safe he believes travelling
by air to be. He began hauling
members of congress aloft yester-
day and the demand was brisk
when he called a halt after taking
SO senators and representative for
short tours over the city.
All Enjoy Rides
All were visibly pleased with the
rides and the easy manner in which
Lindbergh drove bis aerial taxis.
Little comment was Forthcoming
at the end of each flight, although
two of the four women members Of
the house, among those taken up,
could not restrain their JOY.
1T was delightful" said Mrs.
Edith Nourse Rogers of Massachu-
setts.
Mrs. Katherine Langley Of Ken
lucky agreed with Mrs. Rogers and
added that she had enjoyed it inn
mensely and had feeling Of per-
feet safety"

BIG MYSTERY IN
Sub DISASTER
Is EXPLAINED
Naval Board Figures Out Wha,
Caused Sudden Deserti0n of
Control Room

Boston, March 2l.-tAPl-Defi.
ME establishment that the 81 men
imprisoned in the after compart-
mcnts of the submarine S-4 had
lived for considerable length OF
time after the crash which eventual
~ claimed the lives of the 40 Of
ficers and men aboard seemed today
to have been made by the naval
board Of investigation.
The board also believed it had
solved what has been probably the
major mystery of the disaster since
the revelation Of the smallness Of
the hole made by the destroyer
Paulding in the collision of the ves-
sci off Provincetdwn last December,
and that was what caused the sud-
den desertion Of the control room.
AS reconstructed by the investiga-
tors. the accident let sea water into
the pierced battery room, which was
promptly abandoned by men sta
toned there. They sealed the door
leading to the control compartment.
The pressure of the water against a
ventilator pipe leading from the
battery room caused it to burst
above the switchboard in the control
compartment with resultant short
circuits and diffusion of fumes from
the batteries which made the place
untenablc.
At the same time the water from
the battery room had sucked into the
pipe q piece Of green curtain from
an officers state room and an
American flag which became wcdged
in valve between the battery and
control rooms, making it impossible
for the men in the latter compart-
ment to close the valve and shut off
the thrush of water, which a few
seconds afterward destroyed the
usefulness Of the switchboard.
Until then, the investigations
found. the pumps had been opcrat-
ing in an effort to free the SUBJ
marine of water so that it might
continue its rise to the surface.

st. Paul, Mimi, March 21.-(R-
A broken gas feed line, bane of the
airmen, ended Gene Shank's effort
to establish new endurance records
early today after his 9O-horsepower
biplane had been in the air IL hours
and 50 minutes.
The accident was the second ex-
perienccd by the 22-year-old law
student-aviator since he took off
from the ice Of White Bear lake 1t
l:17 p. m. yesterday. A lire of
hose from smother plane which was
being used to refuel Shank's ship
last night Was severed by the pro-
pellor Of the biplsne.
Although Shank fell far short Of

record Of Sc 1-2 hours, ono record

Amicns, France, March 2l.-(AP)
Ten years ago today began the
battle in which. the first American
troops participated in the world war.
On March 21. 1918. Field Marshal
Won Hindenburg of Germany hurled
at the allies on the .Somme front the
gray hordes he had been assembling
all winter, in q mighty effort to
strike a decisive blow before the
United States could assemble enough,
forces to be Of material aid to the
allied cause.
Five days later, on March 26, with
British reserves all but exhausted
small force of American dough.
boys, who had been working or
bridges behind the British lines, cx.
changed their shovels for bayonets
and hand grenades and became the
first American troops to fight
shoulder to shoulder with the British
and French in the front lines.
They were part Of the Sixth
U. S. Engineers and the Twelfth
and Fourteenth Railway Engineers.
With parts of the Seventeenth
Twenty-second, Twenty-eighth and
One Hunderd Forty eighth U. s,
aero squadrons, they made up the
American representations in this
major engagement of the war.
Starts With Gas Attack
The German offensive on the
Somme opened at 5 o'clock in the
morning with a stealthy gas at
tack. quickly followed by the roar
Of heavy artillery. Field Marshal
Haig had not learned until the last
of February that the push was to
be toward Amiens, throbbing
railway center back OF the British
lines, and there were few REIN
f0rcemcnts at hand.
The green American boys heard
the beginning Of the German bar
rage, the booming which gradually
grew into a roar. They saw the
few British reserves picked up and
carried forward.
Ludendorff and Won Hindenburg
had planned the Sommc offensive
all winter. They had reorganized
the German arm., and its tactical
methods toward speed and mobil.
ity, moved their armies from the
Russian and Italian fronts, and
masscd huge stacks of ammunition
and supplies. for a surprise move
