Lame Ducks Yet

Men and women are running for election to state
legislatures this year on variety of issues but one
question should be put to all candidates and should
receive clear answer before the voting.
The lame duck amendment to the United States
Constitution will be ratified rejected by these new
state legislators who therefore become important far
beyond the boundaries of their own jurisdiction.
Each person seeking Office should disclose his po-
stion on it, Whatever said and done during the
campaign, this issue should remain foremost in the
minds of voters in bestowing their support.
Fourteen states have ratified the lame duck
amendment but thirty-four others still have to pass
upon it, twenty-five of these must ratify 1t before
it becomes part of the fundamental law.
So far the amendment has received overwhelming
approval indicative Of the deep-seated resentment
against existing handcaps to representative govern
ment and a general desire that they be removed
There is no valid argument to be made in favor OF
letting defeated congressman legslate, and inter-
posing more than years delay between an expression
OF popular Will and accomplishment of its wishes.
Existing conditions only work to the advantage
of self-seeking politicians Only carelessness now on
the part of the people can prevent adoption of this
urgently needed reform.
Representative government has been criticised dur
ING the last year as never before in this country Its
future will depend in part upon our ability to correct
at once this most garng fault and give it trial under

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE

Wendell Johnson, who reports the
result of Investigations made at
the University of Iowa, attempted
to find out the relationship of par
ents to children in cases of slut
tering.
Physicians find regularly that par
ents are likely to associate the be-
ginning of any paralysis or dis
turbance that may take place in a
child with a fright or shock or a
fall.
In the same way parents who are
asked about suffering put most of
the responsibility on frightS and
emotional shocks, on severe illnesses
and injuries, on lack of will power,
the tendency to talk too fast or to
think too fast, and even on tongue
tie.
A surprising number Of parents
think that suffering is a stage
through which every child must pass
and which he will outgrow if let
alone.
Since the definite cause of the
suffering was not known to the
parents, their attempts at preven-
ton and treatment usually were full
Of folly.
The child tries to meet it's par
ents' demands and will, on occasion,
even simulate improvement to avoid
punishment or gain reward

From Little Things

One workman one drill one slip tied up whole
subway and threw out of gear a days life of hum
dreds of thousands of New Workers.
Last week busy section of New England suffered
from sudden failure of the electric current from
big power house A lineman went out and discov-
cred that bird carrying small snake in its beak
had dropped the snake across two wires caused a
short circuit and put the whole power system out
of business
It is a complicated, intricate life we lead. And
the more complicated it becomes the more it is at
the mercy of small mishaps and arrangements that
starts trains or consequences.
Yet mankind began to realize this in simpler times
than ours, long before the famous pistol shot
in an obscure Serbian town walked the whole mod
ern world to new, terrible and lasting awareness
Of its nterdependence.
A century and half ago old Ben Franklin
crammed a treatise on the subject into the we'll
known lines:
For the want OF nail the shoe lost.
For the want of shoe the horse was lost.
For the want of a horse the rider lost,
For the want of a rider the battle lost.
For the want of a battle the kingdom lost
All for the want of horseshoe nail.
About all civilization and progress can do to that
Is indefinitely elaborate, complicate and diversity
it-making its meaning year by year more true.

Social Life Difficult for Sufferers

stepSon ten times a day for slut
tering. The parents, of course, eX-
hort their children and give them
sympathy if they are timid and self
conscious, but in general this is not
successful in relieving the Stutter-
ing.
Most such cases demand careful
study and treatment applied par
ticularly to their conditions.
Sometimes the suffering is not
alone responsible for the social
Embellishments of the sufferer.
A careful investigation of his psy-
chology may reveal other factors
which bear a considerable respon-
sibility for his troubles of behavior
and of personality.
Nevertheless, the suffering COM
plicates every phase of his existence
and occasionally when the investi-
gator breaks through he sees the
type of person that the sufferer
might have been without his physi-
cal and mental disturbance.
These mental disturbances are
more likely to be intensified if the
suffering persists into advanced
years.
Sometimes the emotional disturb
ance is a contributing cause, and if
this can be determined the stutter-
ing may disappear with a realiza-
ton of the emotional disturbance.

Times Readers Voice Their Views

Editor Tines-All mental diseases

nothing more than deliria. Each

has been taken care of.
In dementia precox, the insanity
Of youth, this same statement holds
true.
Only one case in a thousand will
get well without the appropriate
physical treatment. Overstudy,
grief, shocks, religion, love, do not
produce a mental sickness. We do
not wear out, but we may rust out.
The condition of dementia precoX
always is due to some physical alb
normality which permits of auto or

some boys and girls are susceptible
to this self intoxication while others
are not, we do not know, any more

come poisoned by handling ivy
while others can play with it and
never be harmed.
However, the fact remains that
no case of dementia precox ever was
found that did no5 have an abnor-
NAL physical condition in some form
or other. The early discovery and
appropriate removal or modification
of the cause will permit the. mental
state to readjust itself to normally.

of complete removal of the cause,

similarly ludicrous cause. In such
