Of a wing may have come from a
blow SO severely inflicted that in

Mr.. Bellanca. having had a num-

that putting the damaged plane

a separate repair department.
Also Uses Separate Repair Plan
The Travel Air company, at
Wichita, is another organization
which has undertaken to meet this
problem with a separate repair de-
partment.
I'VE recently had a case Of a
young man of very little flying eX-
perience," one of the officers Of the
Travel Air company explained,
who came to Wichita and pur-
chased a plane. We saw that he
did not know much about flying
and was totally unfamiliar with
our type of ship. We communi-

THE father wired to let the boy
go ahead and try. He wrecked
the plane before he got off the
field. To put that ship back in the
production line would have been to
upset our regular schedules greatly,
and I also think it would have af-
fected Jul production morale in
many ways.
THE repair department can
handle local crack-ups, but when
you get farther afield, and in cases
where accidents occur which render
the plane in no condition to be re-
turned to the plant. it seems that
the solution is different. These are
not SO numerous at the present
time. but eventually it may be
necessary to establish regular re-
pair depots in various parts of the

A miScOnception on the part of
the general public as to the actual
cost Of repairing a damaged plane
has led, III n or two cases where
the plane builder. to bad feeling
between the customer and the
company, an expensive situation
which neither the individual manu-
facturer nor the industry as a
whole can stand at the present
time.
Wrong View by Buyer

sides to the question. but, as we
see it, it is all due to a wrong view
by the buyer, who thinks that fly

we're a bird, and Wiping off the
wings Of his plane is comparable
to scratching the fender on his
automobile. Then he brings his
plane back to the factory and be-
lieves that the new wings ought to
cost nothing at all.

New Britain herald., 1929-08-03

r TOW little divides the stark horror of actual tragedy from the half
 serious, half playful emotions that hover over childhood! Secret grudges, imagined affronts and indig- mites suffered at the hands of teachers, parents, playmates-these are common experiences of childhood, things viewed by adults with humorous tolerance.
 Then, suddenly, mortified parents read of a 15-year-old boy in Pennsyl- vania who kills his grandmother and is sent to the electric chair; of 17-year-old Vincent Rice murdering his girl sweet heart; 15-year-old Dorothy Ellington with her "freedom'-and of 15-year- old Jimmy Deacons, who killed his charming young schooteacher because he "loved and hated her."
 Fathers and mothers of young peo- pie were particularly appalled, and alarmed by this latest case, bringing to their minds, as it could not fail to do, the conflicts and petty quarrels with teachers that are part of the dinner table conversation of nearly every fam fly in which there are children of school age.
 Indeed, young Jimmy Deacons' grue- somely brutal crime had its origin in an incident - intrinsically trivial - which has counterpart, no doubt, in the memories of many who will read this page. Jimmy threw paper wads in class and teacher slapped him. He did not, could not, forget; his youth ful bitterness grew and ranked as the months passed, until it had rolled up an avalanche of tragedy for hinl-and for her.
 Whenever the life of a child like Jimmy Deacons is shattered against an act as frightful as his, it is inter- esting to examine the gradual factors that dragged him down. For the roots of such crime almost always go deep almost always spring from obscure and poisonous seeds planted by chance incidents and flourishing in an un- stable and youthful imagination.
 AS the gates of Jackson Prison closed behind Jimmy Deacons, its youngest inmate, for the rest of his natural life on a Winter afternoon not long ago, one of the officers in his escort murmured with some emo ton:
 "Well, here we are, young man."
 The boy murderer's clear, hard eyes

that take place in all boys about lis age.
 His picture shows that he is probably of low mentality, with eyes rather too close together, and a mental test would pos sibly indicate that he is deficient.
 The first thing that should be done with him is to give him a Stanford-Binet test to determine his intelligence.
 Under the present system in these States, examinations are often made of students, and when tests indicate they are slow, of moron mentality, or have unstable emotional con trol, such students are referred to the proper mental authori- ties. The students are then sent to special schools. If just feeble-minded they are assigned to ungraded classes, where the teachers are competent ob- servers and on the lookout for peculiarities, or. if the emo- tional instability is marked, they are sent to some State institu- ton until the period of adoles- cence is passed.
 This brings us to the true ex- planation of Jimmy's action. This boy was slapped at the age of twelve, the average age of puberty. The emotional devel- opment of boys and girls are of course different. When a boys glands begin to mature there is an added chemical or hormone
New Britain herald., 1929-08-03

thrown i'll that changes hls whole emotional life.
 This hormone does two prin- cipaI things. First, it increases his dominance, or male alert ness. The male is character ized by an aggressiveness and dominance, and when this is thwarted he is said to be "offended,' and to seek Gre venge," or compensation. That is, it keeps driving toward the assertion of the boys ego.
 This boys ego was seriously offended by the slap from the teacher. The slap made him appear little boy. He would not have been offended if she had reproved him in such a man. ner to give him importance.
 As long as adolescence keeps this hormone in the blood his adolescence is going at a high pitch, so he would not forgive this slight to his ego. The slight is always present, and he is driving to remove the slight. A boy at this age reacts to the slight drive just as does a cat if you shut it's passage to an exit. The cat keeps on seeking to reach the exit, door or win dow, and though temporarily stopped, it continues restless until it finally reaches the exit and gets out.
 This emotional condition of the boy is another form of the old compensation reflex built
New Britain herald., 1929-08-03

sistibly attractive to him. He couldn't forget her, whereas he might have forgotten the slap had he not seen her after he left school. It might have taken some fresh humiliation to re- mind him of the slap.
 But once Jimmy Deacons felt an erotic interest in Miss Carter, that was bound to go on and on. It would make him have day dreams about her, imagine him. self hero taking her into the woods and tying her to a tree, showing her how strong he was. This situation is illustrated in a normal way by boys playing police or Indian or prisoner, when they tie up smaller boys. However, impelled By this con- tinuing erotic drive to capture her, when Jimmy Deacons found the opportunity he did so. He asked her for a ride in her automobile. Ostensibly he was going to visit his muskrat traps. That much may have been true. But in the car near her, seeing how small and frail she was as compared to himself, imagining himself, too, much stronger than he was, as do all boys of this age, his day dreams came back on him. He would show her!
 Probably there wasn't the vestige of a thought of murder ing her in his mind. He merely wanted to get her under his con- trol.
 It is likely he grabbed her by the hair, or her clothes. Natur- ally she resisted his attack, when he struck her, choked her, and then, as an afterthought, killed her with a stone or hammer.
 Could Miss Carter have had the courage and the strength of character not to res:st him the tragedy would in all likelihood have not taken place. But her resistance turned his love back into the old channel of defeat marked by the slap. He was afraid of another defeat.
 This situation turned his cap- tivation urge into dominance entirely. Even then, had she let him carry her a little way, until she could have run a distance, that flight would have satisfied his dominance, proved to his ego that he was physically her su- perior.
 In order to reassure parents l will say that neither the crime nor the attack would have taken place had the boy been normally intelligent. A nor mally intelligent boy wouldn't have allowed his emotions to shift to such an unstable riot as were those of Jimmy Deacons.
 Nevertheless, it must be re- membered that the adolescent state of boys contains this zone of danger.
New Britain herald., 1929-08-03

into the personality. This slight to Jimmy Deacons kept some thing before him which he had not been able to clear from his path. When he saw his teacher this slight always came back to irritate him.
 Now we shift to the second effect of the hormone that de- velops in adolescence. This Is described as captivation, or the urge to capture women in a sex way. It IS an active sex drive.
 There's on interesting difference here betmeen boys and girls. Girls during adolescence, instead Of de- reloping an actiue ser druue, or cap- tiudtion, tend 10 c pasSlue ser drire, that IS, they get q crush on their fathers, mothers, other girls and boys. They strongly admire people of both seres. But boys become hunters as thejr captivation de- velops.
 Now Jimmy's teacher, Miss Carter, at the same time she de- feated his dominance, had aroused his captivation urge. She challenged him to capture her, of course, unconscious to herself. So, from that time, he loved her in a captivation sense.
 Jimmy Deacons felt an erotic wish to subdue her. That was most dangerous of all to her and to him, far more dangerous than the defeated dominance suffer- ing from the slap. The reason is that it made the woman ire

meath the superficial aspects of the case and find out how the mind of the boy-hller worked, from that first slap three years ago to the grim episode.
 This is the province of modern psychology. Therefore Professor Will jam M. Marston, noted lecturer and writer on the phenomena that occur in the dim half-world of the mind, has been asked to bring his experience and powers of analysis to bear upon the problem of Jimmy Deacons.

Normal People" etc.
 COCIETY at large, and par ) ticularly teachers and par
 ents, should pay profound attention to the lesson involved in the murder of Miss Flossie Carter, a beautiful young school teacher, near Sheridan, Mich., by her former pupil, fifteen year-old Jimmy Deacon.
 The facts are, briefly, that three years ago, when Jimmy was twelve years old, and in the fifth grade, Miss Carter, then aged twenty-four, slapped him because he threw paper Wads at the other children. In a popular sense, he nourished for three years resentment of this skipping, and finally, when opportunity presented, he killed her on a lonely road. He took letter from her pocket and wrote a note on it saying she had killed herself. That night he went to the movies, appar- ently undisturbed by the crime.
 Wherein lies the true expla- nation of this emotional mys- tery? First off, l will say that while he is probably feeble minded, it is a crime that can be explained by present knowl- edge we have of the changes
New Britain herald., 1929-08-03

Professor Marston has examined hundreds of cases having points in common with that of the child slayer. On this page he weighs the facts, the personality of the boy, the background against which the crime was committed. From these things he has drawn number of interesting conclusions, which ought to be of value in the pre- venton of deeds such as Jimmy's
