ST la prosmicuidad existi6 en-
las etapas iniciales, probable

tempo. Sabemos que nunca for
mo una base firme en- la histo-
ria social del ser humane.
Por 10 que Sc sabe de los ce-
los de todos los cuadr1pedos
machos en- 10 relative a sexo, no
es probable que el hombre pri-
mitivo quedara satisfecho en-
cCmpartir su mujer con otros
hombres. Ell siempre hubi9ra
preferido vivir con una mujer
que vivir en- prosmicuid3d
y compartir su mujer.
SegGn ell famoso viejo mito
de Thlinket, ell hombre ce.oso es
mas antique que ell mundo mis-
me. Este mito nos dice que hu-
DO una edad cuando los hombres
agrupados en- la oscuridad bus
caban ell mundo. Ellos sabian
que existia, pero no sabisn don
de y como encontrarlo. Durante
esta edad un Tnlinket viva con
su esposa y hermana; y Ell era
tan locamente celoso de su mu-
jer que mataba a todos los hi
jos de su herm3na para que no
Sc atreviesen a mirarla.
Pero los celos no desempena-
ron una parte tan ~importante en-
las relacioras sexuales como la
natural attraction de una cierta
por un hombre. Wester-
marck dice: 70 soy de opinion
que ell laZo que une a la hembra

AUTO LICENSE
FAVORIT|S|N
ASSA|LED

Demands that the District Com
missioners put an end TO the in
iquitous low-numbered auto tag
racket" are contained in a letter
received today by Melvin c.
Hazen, president of the Board Of
District Commissioners.
The letter, written by Ralph w.
Benton, Of Chevy Chase, Md,
cites an instance in which a
policeman refused to arrest a
driver of a car bearing a low
numbered tag, although the
chauffeur was obviously violating
the law.
The car was parked double
with several other machines, Mr..
Benton said, and a policeman
ordered the group to move on"
AL complied except the driver Of
the low-numbered machine.
When Mr.. Benton asked the
driver of the car in question why
he did not comply with the
policeman's order, the driver
ordered him to shut up," he
said. Mr.. Benton went in search
Of a policeman, and found one a
block away.
The policeman, he said, refused
to make the arrest, because it
was half a block off his beat"
Another policeman also refused
to intervene because 1t was not
on his beat.
Commenting on the letter. Mr..
HaZen said there was no reason
why the policeman should have
refused to make the arrest. He
added that he would send the
letter to the owner of the auto
mobile in question, who is an
associate justice Of the United
States Supreme Court, and ask
an explanation.
