FEAR BLAMED
 FOR DEPRESSION

Paris (UP)-Basing the whole depression now existing interna- tionally, on one word. Lady El- more, American psycho-analyst here, backs her belief that that one word is fear"
 "The whole world is engulfed in fear" she says. "and it will be res cused only when the mothers of the world learn to bring up their chill dren without fear.
 From the moment of birth, children are subject to shocks, and later to threats and prohibitions that grind fear and oppression into their nature. We must learn to free them from that. For adults, psycho-analysis often can prove the liberating factor. Chil- dren from four years old up are taken to school at Leicester, Eng, and they are put entirely on their own responsibility. Neither classes. nor anything else, are compulsory. The new boys play around for the first two or three weeks and then decide they want tot go to classes with the others"
 Lady EImore is now writing a book on the story of these chil- dren and their relation to fear.
 Mrs Eddy: The Biography of Virginal Mind" Lady Elmore's previous literary work. aroused considerable discussion. Tn the writing of 1t. she collaborated with Edwin Frandin Dakin.

MUNICIPAL CHECKS ESCAPE TAxATI0N

Decision in Conformity With Opinion Expressed By @ Corporation Counsel OConnor - Mutual Aid ! Awaits Word on Paper Issued By Relief Bureau

right along, that the city,s checks could be taxed in view of the fact that such procedure would really represent double taxation on the shoulders of the taxpayers of Wa terbury. who support the expenses of the municipality.
 H o W yer. another important point of interest to Waterburians has yet to be cleared up. It is the problem dealing with taxes on checks issued by the Mutual Aid Unemployment Relief committee. So far 1t appears that the tax of two-cents, per check, must be paid by the relief fund. This means an added burden of about $40, weekly. on the relief funds.
 William M. Harris, chairman or the relief committee, stated today that he has received no reply yet to a letter he sent to President Herbert Hoover protesting against such taxation. MT Harris and the city in general take the stand that relief money. issued in check form on the payroll, should not be taxed. Further details on this angle are expected within .the next day or two.

Stray Dogs in
 All Parts of City
Deter Many From Keeping Lawns in Presentable
 Condition

Some time ago statement was issued to the fleet that stray dogs would be picked up and taken to the pound in the city. The notice had the desired effect for brief period, but people soon forgot and now the usual number of pets are about the streets, in dooryards and other places, to the great annoy- ance of pedestrians and house. keepers.
 Most people like dogs. but few care to see them attack pedes- trians on the public streets or tear- ing up flower beds that it took much attention to make present. able. It is this kind of annoyance, not whether they are registered, that cause most of the fault find- ing about dogs at large. There does not seem to be any remedy and as a result many who would like to maintain nice front and rear yards prefer to give up the idea rather than fall out with their neighbors about the unwel- come visitors that frequently call at night and do much damage.

Tires. gasoline and oil, the three chief products of merchandise handled by Trul- finger, had just become subject to the new taxes.
 Trullinger's patrons were com- plaining and 50 was Trullinger.
 They call them republican taxes" Trullinger said, and they're all sore."
 Walking down the street and in- to the jewelry store owned by w.. H. Replogle, the visitor received further enlightenment along the same line.
 "The big issue to-day Is to re- duce expenses in government" Replogle said. "Cut out the offices and the officials that aren't needed. just like business has had to do."

 When residents of this town and Falls City,. farther south, talk, they are emphatic about the realities Of today. and they say these realities
 are the things that should concern politicians. phases of prohibition are decidedly secondary, although they say In Falls City 1t might be a good idea to legalize the sale of liquor. be-

 we must live like we did back in the sos. They don't talk much about prohibition. They talk about how much money Is spent in Washington and about low prices they get for their corn and wheat
