Bottling AGGRESSIVE Impulses
Declared Cause of Suicides

The popular theory that Oppressive
insanity is a cause of suicide "is not
borne out by the facts" he continued.
The largest number Of Oppressive
psychoses in mental hospitals is
among women, he pointed out, yet
the suicide rate is highest among
men.
Dr. Silboorg reported $1,000 to 20
600 suicides are Officially" recorded
in the United States each year. On
the basis of population. the rate is
greatest in Germany and smallest in
Ireland.
The psychiatrist said it was
fallacy to blame modern civilization
for recent increases in the rate of
suicide.
"As matter of fact" he asserted,
there were more suicides among the
Aborigines OF Peru, Haiti and Canada
than there ever have been in our
civilization. The ancient Teutons,
the Greeks and Romans, the JAP
anese. the Hindus-all killed them
selves and, for a time at least, made
the best Of tragic situation by wor-
Shlping the act of self-murder.

ST. LOUIS. May 2.-Dr Gregory
Ziloorg. New York psychiatrist. told
the Missouri Society for Mental
Hygiene today suicides resulted not
from insanity and depressions but
from the "bottling up" Of inherent
aggressive impulses.
Unless the psychic machine, the
human individual, is permitted to
function freely, 1t will wilt under the
pressure of its own inner steam and,
like q boiler whose safety valves are
plugged up. it will break" he said.
DR.. zilboorg secretary Of the Com
mittee for the Study of Suicide,
Inc, asserted, 'the recent growth
Of political relationships undoubtedly
serves as such an agency of plugging
up mans natural drives and it would
not be surprising to learn that suicide
will begin to increase as a result.
II mans natural aggression does not
find its legitimate outlet. it will turn
on itself"
Deprivation, financial or otherwise,
unless coupled with such factors of
repression, is "of rather secondary
Importance and 1t would seem, there
fore, that the conclusion that econo-
mic depreSsions are responsible for
the growth of suicide is a hasty one,"
he said.

waited on by her hostess.
With a menu planned which can
be prepared and served with her
special equipment, a good hostess
next organizes the work so that
there will be no last minute rush.
A gracious hostess greets her guest
with a calm composure and well
comes them to share position of
her home life. No greater honor
can be paid guest.
The hostess must realize that
her place is with her guests at all
times. The tea wagon, service ta-
BILE and tray all help to accomplish
their purpose. The hostess who
stays in the kitchen to serve the
salad and dessert makes possible
uncomfortable lapses in the conver-
sation. Sounds of the egg beater,
scraping of Dishes. and running
water all give the impression of
extra work. The guests feels that
company preparations are being
made for her benefit. She feels
that the family life is upset be-
cause of her presence
The hostess is always "the head
of the table," 1t is her duty to
guide the conversation into safe
channels and to be watchful of the
comfort of her guests. The host
should of course help the hostess
in perfecting this spirit of hospi-
tally. When children are old e.,

pany, they should be taught to be
courteous to guests.
