Manners and Morals
BY JANE JORDAN

for it's opposite. Your rigid for
mality is a defensive mechanism
to protect the warm-blooded crea-
ture whom you fear to release.
You'll enjoy life more if you let
gOl
It is almost an axiom that COM
munication is necessary for an
energized life. In your dealings
with others try to interest your
self in their interests, pursuits and
recreations instead of dwelling on
your own reactions to them.
The chances are that your cold
ness makes them just as afraid Of
you as you are of them.
Continuous practice in making
contacts is your most crying need,
and only assiduous application to
your task of knitting your life
more closely to the lives of others
will solve the distressing problem
of your loneliness.
TITO Distracted Mother - I am
n sorry that you do not wish
your letter published. Unless I
state the problem, the answer has
no meaning to other readers. Your
son is not the only young man
who has become entangled with
an older married woman and
come out unscathed in the end.
You state that he has been the
center of your life, your pride and
joy until this affair came up. It
is the task of a youth of his age
to break strong ties to his mother.
Very often he does so by attach
ing himself to another older WOm-
an. 1t is too bad that he has
chosen such an Objectionable
woman to tie to, but youth de-
mands the right to make it's own
mistakes.
I believe that if you will ignore
the affair, it will die a natural
death. You have a good insight
into yourself when you say you
feel too strongly about the affair
to think clearly. Remember that
it is partly the necessity to defy
you that has brought this regret
table affair about Therefore, if
you withdraw your opposition,
part of the tension will be re-
heved.
This is hard to do, I know, but
I believe it is your cue for the
present. In the meantime there is
nothing to prevent your exposing
him to girls his own age in an
unobtruSive way. If he could get
work out of town and leave home
for while, it would be an ad-
vantage, provided it comes about
in a natural way, so that he will
not see through your strategy too
readily
I believe it would be mistake
to arouse the woman's husband,
for his wrath only would stir your
sons chivalry and make him feel
that he had to stick by her
through thick and thin. Keep
your hands off, if possible. This
can not last long.

I think Norths pass Of three

Here's a three contract; let's see
what we have to do to defeat that
contract.

AS West holds the ace of dia-

Can't you see how simple this

He knows that his partner has

THIS is the second of a series Of
Il three articles describing an in
teresting and unusual defensive
play.
Today's hand is a variation of the
play I described in my previous ar
ticle. You usually find, in tOurna-
ment play, that if a pair stops short
of game and can not make game, it
is likely to lose the match.
South has a lot of cards and when
he Jumps to three spades over East'S
forced bid of two diamonds, 1t
amounts to almost a demand bid.
But look at North'S hand. He has
the worst distribution in the world.
No ruffing possibilities, and the only

lions have been such that it has
been necessary for me to be formal
and uncOmmunicative Socially, 1
am courteous but stiff and reserved,
and it is impossible for me to warm
up to people even though 1 like
them; so I am considered distant
and severe. 1t may be that this is
just my natural personality and is
not the result of childhood influ-
ences. What do you think? I am

L.
A NSWER-Your decision to re-
L n tire into your shell is a mis-
take. Your problem is to live with
reality and not to retreat from it.
And reality presents a universe
peOpled with others to whom we
must adjust ourselves.
Any personality is built partly
on inherited tendencies and large
ly on early environment. What
proportion of character is due to
heredity and what to environment
has been debated for years with
out the formation of an accurate
conclusion.
The behaviorists have it that we
inherit only the point to which
the intellect may be raised, and
that character traits are learned.
This theory outrages the strong
est proponents of heredity, but
even they will not deny that en-
vironment plays its part in shap-
ing the individual.
1t always is a mistake for
family to remain a closed corpo-
ration. The young should contact
the outside world from the period
of infancy onward. Otherwise.
they will not learn to run along
with reality gladly, but will be
faced with the problem of adjust
ment later in life when it is hard
er to make. We must suspect any
strong feeling Of being a cover up

LINK WITH
BYRD PARTY

While Admiral Byrd's South
Pole expedition is remote from I'M
perial Valley in the matter of
miles, the two have a common in
terest as many valley radio fans
found out Saturday night when
a national broadcast company had
Admiral Byrd on its hook-up.
The valley interest centered on
Clayton Bailey, chief radio oper-
atcr for the Byrd expedition,
whose mother, Mrs. T. B. Lewis, is
a resident of Brawley.
Present at the broadcast station
in New York were Bailey's grand
mother, Mrs. Wilson, and his
aunt, Lucille Wilson, an actress
known professionally as June Jus
tbs. They extended birthday greet
ings by radio to Clayton Bailey,
whose birthday occurred on March
8. 1t happens also to be the birth
day of his brother, Dexter Bailey,
member of the Brawley fire de-
partment.
In addition to his mother, STEP
father and Dexter Bailey, other
relatives of the young radioman
living in Brawley are another
brother, Earl and a half-sister,
Lucille Lewis.

WASHINGTON, March 10. U.P)
More persons are under arms in
the underworld than in the COM
bined forces of the army and navy
of the United States, Attorney Gen.
eral Homer S. Cummings said in
testimony today before the senate
judiciary committee.
Cummings was teStifying on a
series of anti-gangster and anti
racketeering bills which the depart
ment of justice has proposed for
enactment.
Cummings told of the serious
crime situation which had develop
ed to such an extent that local
law enforcement had practically
broken down.
1T was perfectly manifest" he
said, that we were confronted
with an unusual situation. Rowing
! bands of criminals were able to
! ply their vocation with consider
able success because of the lack
of coordination between state and
| federal authority"
The bill Cummings department
is sponsoring will be compressed
into about six major measures,
designed to tighten up connections
between state and federal auth
ority so that gangsters and racke-
teering activities will be curtailed
sharply. The bills are drawn in
conformity with the federal power
over interstate commerce and the
federal jurisdiction of thu national
banking situation.

UP)-Unheard from and believed
dead for 33 years, Henry Dana
Bradley, Riverside, Calf, surveyor,
has broken his long silence to de-
mand from the old stone church
here a part of a legacy left by his
family.
Bradley, a graduate of the class
of 1893 at Yale, disappeared from
New York in 1901. Repeated efforts
had been made to locate him.
His mother died about % years
ago, and believing him still alive
bequeathed an estate of about $12,-
900 to her son. She directed the en-
tire sum be spent, if necessary, to
find Bradley. In event he was not
found, tie residue was left to the
church.
He was said to have written the
church offering to divide the $4,000
which remained of tie estate.
Church trustees met yesterday to
discuss the offer but reached no
agreement. The matter was put
over to a future meeting.

Fugitive Claims American Un-

United Press Staff Correspondent


ATHENS, March 10. U.P)-Sam-
uel Insull seeking a refuge from
American law in the little tramp
steamer Maiotis, was understood
today to have instructed ''influ-
entail friends in the United States
to intercede with President Roose-
velt in his behalf.
Free for the time as he steamed
across the Mediterranean, insult
was beset by fears of being kid
naped.
Before he left here early yes
terday after his brief return at the
demand of the government, insult
expressed the fear that American
authorities might charter ship to
kidnap him or to 'eXterminate"
him in a simulated collision.
His statement showed the hys-
terical condition in which events
of the last few days had left the
aged utilities man, interested only
in avoiding a return to the United
States to face trial on the charge
of irregularities in connection with
the collapse of his industries.
But there were reports here that
insults fears of kidnapping might
be justified. These reports were
that an American yacht, manned
by gangsters, sought to intercept
| the Maiotis. 1t was said that {
yacht called the Vulture set out
from Istanbul, Turkey, in search
of the insult vessel.
Authorities at Istanbul denied
that any such yacht, or any
American yacht at all, had been
there.
Last night the Maiotis gave its
position as three miles off the
island of Thira, about las miles
southeast of Athens and one third

1t was understood that insults
lawyers here, who are in constant
touch with his agents at London
would wireless him before he ap-

George Xiros, one of Insults
lawyers, told the United Press
that just before the Maiotis sailed
he handed insult a list of 80 coun-
ties with which the United States
has no extradition treaty.
