am l." the entire world picture
would probably now be different,
The inequalities and the unfair
nesses which had crept into the
Versailles treaty would have been
corrected; the flow of trade be-
tween nations would have been
promoted instead of being almost
stopped; aggressions of nations
against nations would have been
prevented; the conditions which
bred the dictators never would
have developed; worldwide eco
nomic distress would not have
come about; there would have
been no armament race; and we
should have collected that twelve
billion dollars Europe owes us.
My conviction is that we in the
United States are paying today
for our refusal to be friend to
man. Punishment is likely to fol-
low a duty shirked by a person or
a nation - which is directly in
line with the law Of retributive
justice and disciplinary lnstruc-
ton.

OUR FRIENDS ABROAD

There is one thing we folks who
believe in fair play in government
should bear constantly in mind:
There is a substantial percentage
of persons in Germany. Russia,
Italy and Japan who believe ex-
actly as we do, but they dare not
express themselves as we do. The
ruling forces in the ruthless ma
tons are no more those nations
than the vile Tammany machine
is New York City and the infam-
Gus Pendergast machine is Kan
sas City. We should not indict a
whole people. An entire nation
Should not be condemned if ten
worthy persons can be found in
it.
God preserve US from the rule
Of the ruthless, organized, en-
trenched minority!

PAS PRIVATE TITLE OF NOBILITY
(By BRUCE CATTON)

The last few years have been pretty
tough ones on Father.
The world has gone drifting off to no.
where like Kansas corn-crib before
eyclone, and Father knows no more what
is all about than any other citizen. The
Job of supporting family-in a world
where jobs keep getting scarcer-is grow
ing tougher and tougher; and to occupy
his traditional position as the symbol OF
wisdom and the source of earthly security
is getting to be an impossibly difficult task.
Nevertheless, Father still rates pretty
we'll $685..
Optimist International a service club
organization, recently polled some 5000
American boys, asking them (amOng other
things) to list 1.-The greatest person now
living"
The majority vote in this strange cleo
ton was Won by President Roosevelt;
which, considering youths natural hedaz-
element by the White House, is only nat
ural. Second place went to "Mother"
which, once again, is quite to be expected.
But third place, high above people like
Lindbergh, Joe DiMaggio and Buck Jones,
went to Father. .
Which ought to be heartening news for
all the battle-weary dads of the land.
No one has ever taken the plain, ordi,
nary, humble citizen of this country aside
and put him under the microscope to find
out just exactly what it is that he is fight
ing for. If the job is ever done, the inves
tigators will undoubtedly discover that the
most compelling motive he owns is the de
sire to look like a somebody in the eyes o.
his son.
That isn't the easiest thing to do, because
the ordinary man has pretty clear con
csption of his own unworthiness. Even i
he happens to be boss man, sitting behind
a big desk and rejoicing in a gaudy title
and fat pay-check, he is all too conscious
of the fact that he is only cog in the bust
ness wheel after all, and that he could be
replaced without too much trouble. And il
he-is one of the hired hands, as he usually
is.- hardly a day passes without reminding
him of his insignifcance.
but at nome 1t IS little different. There
someone actually looks up to him, relies or
his wisdom and his knowledge of life
trusts that he can do the impossible, and
creates private title of nobility for him
Which makes all the difference in the
world ..-. .- ..'
Lille isn't easy, for most people. It is ar
eternal struggle in which the chances OF
victory are never very bright, and it gives
every man terrible, tragic load of disap
pointment and disillusion to carry.
Unless man can draw strength from
some outside source, he is apt to fail. Anc
that source of strength, in most cases, is
nothing else than the love and the trust il
the'heart of a yOungster at home.
Which brings US back to the straw vote
taken by Optimist International. Time.
may be hard, but Junior still sees Dad as ,
winner. And because there is, after all,
scale of values which transcends tn
worlds workaday scale, it is probable tina
ultimately Junior is quite correct.

ITHACA, N. Y, Jan. 10.-The long
sought origin of consciousness and
emotions in the human brain was
reported found today by Cornell Uni
cersity anatomists.
Both consciousness and emotion
were traced to q series of four brain
structures, which form a vertical loop,
standing deep in the middle of the
brain. Each hemisphere of the brain
has one Of these loops.
The names of the four parts are the
hippocampus, which means sea horse,
cyrus cinguli, meaning belt, mamillary
body and hypothalamus.
The hYpothalamus, which is ap-
proximately above the roof Of the
mouth, and forms the bottom of the
consciousness loop, has previously
been Identified by medical scientists
as intimately connected with the
emotions.
Discovery that the other three struc-
lures form q circuit with the hypo-
thalmus, and identification Of their
roles. was reported by james w. Fapez,

scribes them in the archives Of neu-
rology and psychiatry which is pub
lished by the American Medical Asso-
citation.
The new evidence of the conscious
ness loop came from human brains.
It was found by noting the results Of
injuries to this area Of the brain.
Part Of 1t came from the Cornell COL
lection of the brains Of famous per-
sons. Part was from the revelations
that recent advances in brain surgery
have made possible.
Injury to any Of the four parts in
the loop was found to cause partial
or total loss Of consciousness, depres-
sion Of various sorts and numerous
emotional and personality upsets.
The loop connects directly with the
cortex. which Is the gray matter or
higher center, that chiefly .distin-
guishes mans mind from animals.
This connection Is the belt" the
cyrus cinguli, which Is in fact the
floor, or lowest layer Of the gray
matter.
This cyrus cinguli, in addition to its
role In consciousness. shows evidence
ol being intimately concerned In sex
and IN the quality Of vigilance.
