Psychopathic Patriots
Flock 10 Capital,
Scientists Told
Many Eager to Help
President and Others
Solve U. S. Prob Iems
BY THOMAS r. HENRY,
Star Staff Correspondent.


BOSTON, May 18.-Psychopathic
patriots are nocking to washington.
This was stated today before the
American Psychopathological soci-
ETY., meeting here, in q report pre-
pared by DR.. Jay L. Hoffman, senior
medical ofilcer Of st. Elizabeth's
Hospital, where psychopaths from all
over the world, who 60 20 the Capt.
tai, usually to see the President, are
taken.
The phenomenon was first noted
in 1885, said DR.. Hoffman. The
number has become greater with the
increase in population. he said. "and
has fluctuated according to the in
tensity with which the changing
problems of Government has occu-
pied public interest and according
to the personality of the presidential
incumbent"
Called "White House" Case.
DR.. Hoffman has examined all Of
them for the past five years. They
are referred to at the hospital as
White House cases" Actually, he
staid, about half of them come to
see the President. Others drop in
to advise cabinet officers and other
lesser officials, but all have the same
symptoms.
DR.. Hoffman's report said 81 in a
group of So studied came to de
mand Federal investigation OF al
legged persecution, its cessation and
punishment of alleged prosecutors.
A few wanted TO learn why they
could not obtain or hold employ
ment. or wanted presidential aid In
obtaining employment.
Five came to collect fabulous
sums which they believed were due
them. One woman, who
had worked in factories at a meager
salary all her life, came to the
Treasury demanding $500, ,000, 900
which, she claimed. was being kept
there for her. She claimed her
family in Russia originally had
loaned this money to the English
government to help them pay their
war debt to the United States and
that Queen Mary had brought this
sum to the United States to be
turned over to her.
Two Came to Be President.
Another patient. whose grandi-
oSity had a religious colorlng, came
to Washington to get presidential
assistance to get patent for flame
thrower which. he claimed. would
destroy all the enemies Of the United
States. With a marked Slavic ac-
cent he would patiently explain:
There's God who is No. ], Christ
who is No. 2, and me, who is No. g.
Five came to get patents for
bizarre inventions. Some wished to
offer the President, or some other
Government Official, advise on how
to improve the affairs Of the Nation.
Two claim to have been elected
President and had come to Wash
ington to be sworn in. Two came
to join the F. B. I. as operatives" !"

These boys long for companionshp same as your boy

Ruth Taylor Says
\ PART. NOT APART

No man can ruthfully say that he is seli-madc Like
Ulysses he must humby admit Il part of all that
have met
Each generation has an increasing responsibility be-
it has had greater advantages due to the work and
sacrifices and lives of those which preceded it, For unto
whonsoever much is given of him shall be much required
and 20 whom have committed much of him they will
ask the more"
Whether Intentionally not we learn from all those
whom in contact. with whom live work Not
only experience but the experience of others shapes
lives We cannot live out of the world but we must live
in it, because Of what we have gained from it and we must
give have gained
What is true of the individual is true of the nation No
nation claim to be the people What they are is the
result of the work and toll and labor and thought of count
less other peoples of other and naonalities.
AS pure gold too soft for careful usage so
nation inbred upon itself too soft for life Only as il has
bendeC with other groups with other and drawn un
to itself the good of these alien elements can grow strong
There Is no nation but what is part Of all naons-no
races but what draw from other in order to survive
Our pride in country is due TO all the diverse forces
which shaped it and gave it strength We Americans all
but we nave drawn from every nationality every race,
every creed to build the American way of life which is our
lchet heritage Each has contributed to our country
wealth to the development of its powers 1t is part of all

practice Only last week, in Helena the state police
stepped down the racketee resulting in the removal of
several machines from circulation And since the COVER

Conversation y

BY MARC MORELAND, Ph. d.

Let's Have Unity! Yes, Let's
Unity is a magic, emotive word.
Unity is, too, fine and fruitful
concept which works to draw men
together through a common fund
of hopes, feelings, rights, obliga-
tons, joys, sorrows, aspirations.
As such, unity is discipline which
orders and anticipated the facts
Of social life.
What most people here in our
country remember is the magic
emotion qualities of the word, and
what they forget is unity as con-
cept and discipline.
In tie beginning, with them, it
is the word, but the word scarce
~ becomes flesh and dwells among
them. With them. the logos never
quite becomes logic; and the moral
never quite method.
e.; This department submits
that unity is both moral value ana
mathematical formula it is q
thing Of worth and process OF
fulfillment. being measurable both
as value and proportion.
Unity is just this simple and
just this complex.
You don't get unity, except by
unity of feeling and values: and
when you get it you know it r.
cause you can count it, weigh it.,
