Economics.

Letter-"Since psychology seems to
be mixed up with almost everything in
life, what Is the point Of contact be-
tween psychology and economics?" A.
v. S.
There Is no one point of contact be-
tween psychology and economics. Eco
nomics also touches everything In life
In fact, all the sciences do that very
thing. All knowledge is related. The
idea that the several sciences may be
separated Is a rather narrow one. Men
distinguish one science from another
for the practical purpose of promoting
science as a whole and human welfare
in general Specialization Is only an
expediency. the assignment Of tasks.
Economies Is the most questioned and
mos: questionable of all the modern life
sciences. OF course. the economists will
tell you that economics has its laws. So
will the psychologists say the same for
their discipline. I doubt the claims In
either case. From a scientific point OF
view these so-called laws will have to
be correlated on a higher order than
mere text books and scientific treatises.
They will be found to be the laws OF
life
Our difficulty in establishing the point
Of contact between psychology and eco
Monies is born of our ignorance Of the
meaning of life. To make this contact,
we must depend on a third science,
namely, biology; and on fourth, So
ciology,. and fifth, history. So on
down or up the line of separate divi-
sions of information about human be-

well as elimination of the Is per cent
pay cut, according to present indica-

Officials explained $4,000 bluejackets
are needed to man the warships now

When the warships now in existence
and those under construction are
manned up to IS per cent of strength
the Navy will need 10000 enlisted
men, officials declared today.
Secretary of the Navy Swanson and
his associates have been busy recently
preparing naval estimates now under
consideration by the Bureau of the
Budget. Shortly after Congress opens

During the past three years the
Marine Corps has been slashed from

anxious to have all or ma jor part of
