Seventh District:

TO the Republican Voters Of the
Seventh District:
| This letter to the Colored Citizens
of the 7th District is not inspired by
money, influence, or coercion but by
our realization of our civic duty to our
county, and to you, the voters of the
Seventh District.
Ninety-five per cent of you who
read this letter vote honestly and fear
lessly. You vote for the party that
you think best protects your inalien-
able rights of life, liberty and the
common pursuits of happiness. Your
judgment is based upon facts or sup
posed facts.
AS citizens of Clinton County we
feel that we can best give you the true
| facts concerning our distinguished
citizen, Honorable Clarence j.. Brown,
who is seeking the office of Repre-
sentative to Congress from the 7th
| District
L
expect of any Congressman is that,
when our rights and privileges are
challenged in Congress that he will be
fair to our race In his vote and In
fluenee. Knowing Mr.. Brown as we
do we feel that our interest will be
considered in fair and impartial way

A review of the official record of
Hon. Clarence j. Brown discloses a
highly satisfactory attitude toward
his colored constituents. Particularly
was this favorable attitude shown in
the matter Of his patronage while he
was Secretary Of State. It is clear
that his assignments TO his colored
subordinates were always determined
| by the aptitude and character Of the
worker rather than by consideration
| of color.
| The most convincing example of
this was his selections of Carl G. Jen-
kins for state statistician. In this posi-
ton Mr.. Jenkins was placed in charge
of the most important records, docM-
ments and compilations which was .
high compliment to his training. The
sincerity Of Mr.. Browns many public
acknowledgements OF Mr. jenkins
ability in this position Is borne out by
/ the well-known fact that much of the
most technical work Of the office was
entrusted to him. Forest w. Speaks

studied the emotional behavior in
various groups Of children. The good
natured" and the nervous, irritable
babies were. checked again several
years later to determine changes In
them. The later studies showed no
relationship between their then pres
ent and earlier symptoms. Environ
ment in almost every case had wrought
the change from good" to bad
or vice versa.
Religion Helps Character.
In strengthening and developing the
personality and character Of a child
to combat the strenuous problems Of
life under which so many breakdown
mentally, DR. Moore said that re-
ligion is an lportant factor. There
rests q more obligation on the part
Of every parent. he said, to do every
thing possible to give the child this
benefit.
Types Of mental disorder are so
common, DR.. Moore said, that almost
every person is inflicted to q more or
less degree. From surveys in New
York, he said, organic disorders are
responsible for 20 per cent of the men,
tai cases under treatment. An ordi-
nary general practitioner. he advised,
ought to be able to prevent the organic
causes OF mental disorders.

CHILD
CARE IS ADVISED
Parents at Health Forum
Told Attention May Avoid
Insanity.

Non-social and catathymic defects
in high school children are in the
ascendency especially among girls. DR..
Thomas Werner Moore, Renedictine
monk and prominent psychiatrist, told
large audience last night In the
Public Health Forum at Georgetown
University. DR.. Moore is professor Of
psychology at the Catholic University.
These abnormalities in personality.
which so often lead directly to acute
insanity, he cautioned parents, should
be given proper attention in childhood.
This is best done, he assured, by de-
veloping in the child strength Of
character to enable it to withstand
the strains and stress of life.
1t is possible to forecast mental
breakdown considerably in advance,
he said, by the revealable mental
traits. For this reason, he suggested,
strict attention should be paid to men,
tai abnormalities in children during
their school years.
Education Neglects Character.
Unfortunately. he said, education
has been passing character develop
ment aside for mere preparation for
jobs and is thus responsible for the
mental breakdown of many children
who otherwise could easily be cured.
Environment, more than heredity, is
responsible for many of the mental
quirks developed in young children,

that child guidance clinics with q

he agreed that it Is possible to FORE
tell the type Of mental disorder that
may develop from abnormalities since
they usually follow the lines indicated
by personality traits.
Public Interest Alive.
There has grown up an intelligent
public interest in the last IS years,
he said, in manifestations and at
tempts to prevent mental disorders.
DR.. D. Percy Hickling, professor of
psychiatry at Georgetown and former
District alien1st, declared that the de-
mentia praecox group represents the
largest number Of insane patients ad-
mitted to hospitals.
In the District of Columbia over a
five-year period, he said, more than
1000 such cases were admitted to GAL
linger Hospital. Each of these pa
tients, he said, showed symptoms that
were traced back five years or more.
Earlier treatment, he indicated, would
have cured them mentally.
