To Be Appointed

Los ANGELES, Feb. IA. U.H-
After committees representing the
Metropolitan Water District and ag-
ricultural interests Of Southern Cal
ifornia spent several hours in con
ference today, it was announced that
splendid progress" had been made.
William j. Carr, advisor to the
california Colorado Commission.
made the announcement. He said
that most Of the time of the early
session had been spent in discussing
the division of water among Cali
fornia interests on the basis of the
present allotment limitation of A.
100000 acre feet.
Carr was asked if there was any
possibility Of the conference clos
ing tonight in an agreement on Cal
ifornia's internal disputes. He said
he could not promise that
1t was indicated that if no com.
promise is reached by the end of to-
days sessions, the delegates will
continue their conferences.
Before Governor G. c. Young left
Los Angeles for Sacramento, he an

ChiIders. attorney Of the Imperial
Irrigation District, will be on the
commission.

remarks In passing:
'It Ia o great misfortune to be born the son
Of q great man." though he says in Baby Lind
bergh's case this fact will be offset and miti-
gated by other happy circumstances.

future:
GEIRST of all, the public will think that

They will think Of this little boy Lindbergh's

Guiding physicians and mothers, will be OF the
opinion that just because that baby travelled
good many thousands Of miles in q plane before
he was born that he almost ought to have
wings. But we know today that prenatal in
huence has nothing whatever to do with the
qualities of mind Of that child.
"THE determining factor in the child's
makeup will be its inheritance OF
course, there is no denying that he has very
fine inheritance.
Anne Morrow his mother, has shown all
the stable qualities. the characteristics. the per-
sonahty traits that we like to see in the woman,
wife and mother Of today She has taken an
interest in her husbands job and has parti-
cipated in it with him.
"And the character Of Dwight w. Morrow
his mothers father, q statesman is well
known. Further, you get exactly the qualities
In the grandfather and in the mother that we
would like to see in all children.
"As regards the Iindbergh strain, there Is
good quality and equal fineness there, although
it Is of a different type. Lndbergh's mother
has exhibited excellent qualities In her modesty
her loyalty and in the fact that she is. at her
age, self-supporting 1t Is interesting enough
to who believes in the dominance of in
heritance to know that Lndbergh's mother is
teaching chemistry and physics in a technical
high school-one with very good reputation.
Regarding Lindbergh, the father, and con-
sidering him for the time being without the
halo of romance which the enthusiastic Amer
lean public Immediately cast over him for his
undeniably great flying feat we find that in
his manner and behavior he was just great
and just fine before he crossed the Atlantic
and landed on LIE Bourget Field
His flight from st. Louis, his quiet deter
mination which made it possible for him to get
the backing of hard-headed business men in
that romantic gamble of his, we're all admir-
able accomplishments and qualities.
He few across the Atlantic, it is true, and
there was a very great element of luck in 1t.
but by taking into account every possible ele-
mer in the situation Lndbergh reduced that
element of luck. His behavior Immediately
after his flight and his arrival in Paris was
controlled, some of us thought, " Ambassador
Herrick, but his conduct since that time, when
no one has had the chance to control him, has
been equally great

page publicity. He does not want TO have his
picture taken. He does not care to pose for
the 'talkies. He has nothing to say and he
wants to be let alone to do his work.
From the standpoint of psychologist, one
of Lindbergh's greatest feats was performed at
the time when he made a crash landing with
his wife, then his iancee during their court
ship in Mexico City.
while taking off from the open field where
they had just finished their picnic luncheon,
the right landing wheel of the plane dropped
Off. AS neither had parachute, there was no

alternative but to return TO the flying field
and face the risk of landing on one wheel.
During this crucial time Col. Lindbergh
scared over the held, leaning out through the
window of the cockpit and waving his arm to
inform Mexican aviators on the ground Of the
missing wheel and to give them . chance to
prepare for q smash-up. But first he padded
suitcases and all the cushions available about
his future wife in the cabin to protect her
when the crash came, and he told her pre-
cisely what to do
Then, with all the skill Of which he was
master. he guided the plane cautiously and
made the best landing possible. The plane
rolled more than 100 feet along the ground,
humping on its one wheel and tip Of o wing,
coming to q stop and tipping over.
"Col. Lindbergh sustained dislocated shoul-
der. but his fiancee came out uninjured. He
had thought first Of her safety he had pro-
tected her In so far as possible, covered her up
warned her. And 1t was at this time also that
the true characteristics Of the man and woman,
parents of this baby boy, showed up clearly
for the very next day Lindbergh, with his arm
bound to his side, and his hancee, Anne Nor
row. took . flight in the same plane In which
they had had the accident before and which
had since been repaired.
"An of these things show the inheritance Of
this baby.
-
times large, sometimes small, Psycholo-
gists especially clinic psychologists, think that
inheritance plays 10 per cent and environment
80 per cent
Nov, undoubtedly, If this is the only child
that the Lindberghs have, he will take on the
characteristics Of an only child, which are all
bad characteristics. He Is also the only grand
child in the family, both Of which facts offer
q great handicap to young man who is taking
his first look at this complicated world of ours
Much will depend upon the wisdom of the
grandparents and the parents.
REST assured that Lindbergh will make O
good father. He will let that child alone. The
danger comes in the doting grandparents and
in the aduation that he will receive because
he happens to be Lindberghs boy.
ut Is a great misfortune to be born the SON
OF q great man. sense of strangeness and q
sense of being different from his fellows il
bound to develop. In this we feel that the
sterling inheritance and the untainted blood
line that has brought forth this child will over
come any of these environmental factors
Psychologists congratulate the LindberghS,
but offer the devout wish. for the sake Of the
boy, that within two years he will have .
brother a sister, and that few years later
other brothers and sisters.
