International News Service Science Editor
A y w system of scientific
\ handwriting analysis, to be
used for measuring desirable
and undesirable traits of human
personality. has been revealed
today at the New York State
Psychiatric Institute and Hospi-
tai.
The system was developed by
Drs. Thea Stein Lewinson and
Joseph Zubin, and lis first scien-
tifc outline has just been issued
. by Columbia University.
Or. Nolan ID. {. Lewis. direc-
tor of the institute points out
the scientific and practical sig
nificance of this research thus:
There is AN ever increasing
need for rapid but adequate
methods for determining desir-
able and undesirable personality
traits In connection with mill
tary, industrial and professional
services. The work of Doctors
Zubin and Lewinson constitute n
step i'm this direction"
CLEARING "graphology" the
~ art and science of analyzinC
handwriting of all unScientific
claims and guesSwork Doctors
Lewinson and Zubin have con-
centrated upon certain basic
physiological and psychological
behaviour patterns Of human
beings.
From the scientific viewpoint,

the patterns of muscular con-
traction and release,
A definite rhythm" appears
in the pattern, and this is the
"midpoint, the balance. between
contraction and release.
Thus, handwriting is regarded
as the expression of the piston
like activity of tho body the
body being compared TO an en-
CINE.
DOCTORS Lewinson and ~
~ hin state their general
q theory thus:
Handwriting in all its as

by aycontracted handwriting
Is meant a type Of writing which
" carefully executed, and eN-
hibits a high degree of control
In the writing movements. The
released writing IL very loose,
exhibiting n low degree of con-
troll in the writing movements"
A set of p factors for meas
uring and rating handwriting
specimens, from the point of
view Of personality analysis, has
been devised The factors are
classified into four componentS:

INDIA In The NEWS

India is prominent in the daily
news. Sir Stafford Grips was
there striving to win the support
of the people of India for an all
out war effort. He offered on be-
half of the British government,
Dominion Status and equality
within the frame work of British
Commonwealth of Nations. This
means, of course, loyalty to the
Crown.
Ganhi and Nehru, the most
powerful leaders in India, and
Jinnah the leader of the Moslem
League, will have to be won to
the plan.
The Indian leaders are wary Of
Britain. They remember a sim
liar promise during the first word
war which was not kept. Nedru
wants action now, a declaration of
the British PARLIAMENT concerning
things to be given now and things
to come. Gandhi submitted The
promise made by Grips to the All
India Congress and let them de-
eide whether to take it or leave it.
1t is true, that Japan is at their
gates. But this is not the fault of
India, the Blame belongs to Brit
ain. In fairness, too, it should be
said, the present government of
Britain now in power is not re-
sponsible for the Indian problem,
but it must get action now Or new
er.
Britain Seems not to realize the
tremendous influence radio mas
had on mankind everywhere; how
greatly it has advanced public ed
ucation in the field of general IN
formation. The India of today is
a very different India from 1917.
Our wish is that the Indian prob
lem may be solved now and that
this land which gave to the world
the founder of the Great Buddhist
Religion may take the same proud
place today she occupied in the
Ancient World.
If a Free India" results from
the war, that will be a very great
gain and it will do much to dis
cipate the color complexes'
which beset the world.

Murphy said.
The disease also creates a ser
ious financial problem, he said.
Men infected are thrown out Of
work, their families become de-
pendent upon public support, and
orphans must be placed in state
institutions. People are often ul.-
aware they have tuberculosis. II
is the purpose Of the early dag
nosis campaign to make them
more alert in regard to personal
health and to enroll their support
in helping the Nebraska Tubercul-
osis Association eradicate the dis
ease from the state.
Today every man is essential to
the national defense program. u.
Murphy emphasizes the fact that
for every man in the field eight
cen men and women in overaps
are required. Just as the army
and navy have an effective work
ing program against tuberculosis
so too should every community.
Health officials know what to DC.
but they need help and under
standing. During war time their
program must be strengthened.
