PROBLEM OF OLD PEOPLE PUZZLES
 SCIENTISTS
Psychology Must Solve It Because Old Age Pen- sions and Group In- surance Plans Have Failed

Syracuse, N. r., June 22.-(UP)
 --The problem of what to do with
 old people in industry must be
 solved by psychology, because old
 age pensions and group insurance plans have failed. Dr Paul $. Achilles told the industrial psycho- logy symposium of the Amer ican Association for the Advance ment of Science to-day.
 He denied the popular theory that men become less valuable to their employers after they reach their 10th birthday. The facts show. he said, that in many re- spects man of 55 Is only slightly below his abilities at 20, and psy- choiogy should bend its studies toward means of maintaining them In their employment without dctri- ment to their employers.
 We have 6,000,0O0 persons in this country 85 years old and over, and at least 100000 of them are definitely dependent upon their relatives or upon organized char ity." Dr Achilles said.
 Here wc see the magniture of the problem from an economic angle. From the psychological, consider what 6 cankerous cause of unhnppiness this dependency must be to both young and old, for the young need all they can earn to support themselves"
 Dr Achilles gave four points that he said proved aged persons were not unfit for employment. "Thorndyke has dared to ques- ton the tradition regarding the inability of the old to learn. and has knocked 1t into q cooked hat" Dr Achilles said. "Thc learning ca pacity reaches It's peak in the 20's. and declines so slowly that the loss up to 55 is negligible. There ccr- tainly is not enough difference here to justify any discrimination on the age basis.
 "Walter R. Niles has found the physical and nerve reactoins on tho same curve as the learning ability--.l--- peak in the 20's. Il gradual decline. Psychology needs to obtain more details on this point. "E. k. Strong's investigatoin of a change of interests has found that individual differences are greater than ago differences. He suggests not an age standard. but measure of personal fitness for specific work. We need more study here.
 "Dr Lillian J. North's idea Is ITO hell with all traditions about age Herself 82 years old, she proves Those students have put an what she breaches.
 entering wedge into the problem Involving the happiness of 6.000.- 900 people. This is q month for political platforms. Why not psychological ones? offer ns ono psychological plank the salvaging of old age in industry"
