Consent DEGREES Scored
- -
By Huston Thompson
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Huston Thompson believes con-
sent DEGREES in antitrust cases,
such as the Justice Department has
obtained in recent important in
stances, should be done away with.
Mr.. Thompson, who was on the
Federal Trade Commission from
1919 to 1926, spoke at the Cosmos
Club last night before the National
Democratic Council, of which he is
president. He said if the defendants
in these cases were guilty, they
ought to be convicted. and if not
guilty they ought not to be in
dicted.
Thurman Arnold, head of the de-
partment's antitrust division, has
negotiated these DEGREES recently
Under them the defendants agree
to cease the practice complained of,
and the Government agrees to
abandon the litigation.
The council is composed of Gov
ernment officials who meet to dis
cuss governmental policies.

themselves harmomously to life was
stressed by DR.. Thomas A. c. Rennie
last night in the last of the Carroll
lecture series sponsored by the Boys
Guidance Association at the Willard

THE absence of that happiness
causes reaction in the human mind
ranging all the way from so-called
badness to insanity" DR.. Rennie de-
clared.
The speaker, psychiatrist at Johns
Hopkins Hospital. listed the simple
but sadly lacking components of
human happiness" He included
morality, good health. happy home,
parental harmony, satisfying compan-
ionships, an understanding and intel
ligent affection, interesting occupa-
tions and few wholesome pleasures.
The lack of a few pleasures, both
for children and adults. is the rock
where so many shipwrecks occur" DR..
Rennie said. Adequate recreational
facilities for all is one of the most
