Indy KIDNAP
CASE STARTS
DREAM STUDY
Hundreds Report Locating
Missing Child in Their
Sleep Visions
BY HENRY MINOTT
United Press STAFF CORRESPONDENT

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, March Ia
The Lindbergh baby kidnapping case
may throw light On the mysteries
Of mental telepathy, through an
elaborate dream study undertaken
by the Harvard psychological clinic,
From forty-four states and Can
ada, within the last four days have
come reports on 500 dreams inspired
by the sensational abduction, and
DR.. Henry A. Murray, head Of the
clinic, told the United Press today
he believed analysis of these con-
tributions may reveal valuable new
data concerning unconscious mental
processes.
Though many Of the dream re-
ports stated more or less definitely
the supposed whereabouts Of the
stolen baby, Dr. Murray emphasized
that the clinic did not hope to
locate him through its researches.
Dreams Mexicans Have Child
Here's a sample Of the dream let
tiers received, this one coming from
a Pittsburgh woman:
Tuesday, March 8. I dreamed /
saw a lot of Mexicans sitting on
long benches. They had hats on,
vests and had handkerchiefs around
their necks, sitting with their backs
to me. 1t was out west. The baby
was on the floor. The men we're
talking so loud that it wakened me"
DR.. Murray explained that the
clinic had chosen the Lindbergh
case in order to obtain reports of
large number of dreams on the
same subject. BY this means, he
said, dreaming could be studied as
phenomenon of social psychology
Dreams are psychic events" he
said, "but since they are not willed
consciously or constructed con-
sciously, they usually are classified
In modern psychology among the
manifestations of unconscious men
tai processes. Accordingly, the re-
ports which the clinic is collecting
may be taken as the unconscious
responses Of large number of
people to one given situation
namely, the newspaper accounts of
the kidnapping.
Few States Missed
Pointing out that dream reports
had come from every state in the
Union except Delaware, Mississippi,
Texas and North Dakota, DR.. Muir
ray asked:
us there no unconscious mental
activity in these states?"
The contributors thus far have
varied in age from to 81 years,
the dreams of children being among
the most interesting.
There have been comparatively
few dreams from men," said DR..
Murray. rs this because men have
not dreamed about this event? Or
is it because they consider them
selves too busy to write detailed
accounts of their dreams?"
Few reports have been received
from unmarried women or from
childless married women.

IT WOULD BE A TERRITORIAL
 CALAMITY.

Two further very strong reasons were urged at the Chamber of Commerce meeting yesterday why the activities of the Alaska Road Commission should not be transferred to the Department of the In- terior. One of them that it would probably result in curtalment of appropriations for Alaska roads and leave the burden of caring for the roads have upon the Territory That would be very unfair for many reasons. The Federal Government nearly all of the natural resources of the Ter ritory and the roads add to the value of these It has been claimed that 9S per cent. of the lands of Alaska owned by the Nation. Therefore the Ma tion ought to contribute the lions share to road Struction and similar developments. Relatively it's situation corresponds to that of the richest citizen and it ought to be the heaviest taxpayer
 Another reason for keeping the Alaska Road Com mission here is due to the fact that without it the Alaska Rivers and Harbors District would probably be abolished. Alaska made separate district in 1921 and the President of the Alaska Road Com mission made District Engineer for it. The cir cumstance that the Alaska Road Commission holds several engineer officers in Alaska made it possible to do this for Alaska, not only without additional expense but actually in the interest of economy
 The Alaska Road Commission and the Alaska District Engineer for the Rivers and Harbors District have their Alaska work well in hand and are func- tionng with precision and satisfactorily to all con- cerned It would be disastrous to change this con- dition. The transfer of the Road Commissions ac- tiYites to the Interior Department would be noth- ing short of a calamity.

Alaskan Bear Sanctuary.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer)

 The Juneau (Alaska) Chamber of Commerce nro- tests the move to establish brown bear sanctlI ary on Admiralty and Chchagof islands. or either of them.
 Without taking the bear by the tail the Post lnteilgencer always eager to help Alaska and Alas kans in their aspirations, here gives some of the arguments advanced by the Juneau Chamber
 The two islands contain some 1872 billion board feet Of spruce and hemlock, ITO per cent of such timber in Southeastern Alaska. The area proposed to be set aside will produce 150O00000 feet of tim Der crop each year in perpetuity, enough to make 660 tons of newsprint daily
 Twelve hundred people find livelihood on the islands now, where there located eight large salmon canneries three producing gold mines twelve such mines in process of development one small coal mine, two sawmils four logging concerns four fur farms and fifteen twenty homesteaders
 The chamber points out that development, none too far advanced in the North as it is would re- ceive serious blow if the resources of these two islands were to be locked up in government pre- serve or national park
 It is claimed further that brown and grizzly bears have 77l8 square miles of territory already set aside as sanctuary by the federal government, and that this is ample natural range to their preser vation
