Stephen Leacock's famous rider
who flung himself upon his horse
and rode madly off in all directions"
is psychologically reduplicated in
many people.
Difficult days In the world at
large make more tragic this inner
state of conflict. Instability in
mans social, economic, and inter-
national life is commonly used as
an excuse for instability in the In
dividual, whereas it really puts
a premium upon his steadiness. A
revolutionary epoch when every
thing else goes to pieces only ac-
centuates the disaster of a per-
sonality that cannot hold together.
To be sure, conflict Is an in
escapable element in human ex-
perience and can be good rather
than evil. AS Robert Louis Ste
venson said, THE spice of life is
battle" A man free from inner
disruption may tackle with JOY
even Herculean tasks. When, how
ever, the man himself Is torn
apart, his own inner emotional
civil war is not at all lifes spice"
Only the integrated person, be-
cause he does not have to struggle
with himself, can struggle effec-
lively and happily with objective
difficulties.
Granted that conflict within the
individual can never be compulete-

ly resolved, and indeed ought not
to be! So Robert Browning says:
No, when the fight begins within
himself,
A mans worth something. God
Stops DER his head,
Satan looks up between his feet
both tug
He's left, himself, + the middle:
the soul wakes
And grows. Prolong that battle
through his life!
Never leave growing till the life

Nevertheless, it remains true
that to be all at odds with one
self, one urgent want fighting an
other, the actual and desired
selves hating each other, con-
science and conduct claWing at
each other amid a general sense
of inferiority and guilt, so that
from every venture in tackling OBJ
jective tasks a man comes home
at night to bellicose, cacophonous
emotions, is not in the last 1.-The
spice of life.'
Among the most familiar emo
lions that thus break up mans
peace and crumble his personality
are fear and anxiety. Yet, far
from being mans enemy fear Is
one Of the most indispensable ele-
nlents in the human cup.
When it becomes terror, panic,
chronic anxiety, it is shattering
but 1t still remains true that the
human race never could have
come into existence In the first
place or have survived at all without
fear.
Fear Is every animals elemental
alarm system, so sensitively keyed
that at the first sign of danger the
organism snaps into readiness for
flight or fight. This constitutes the
revolutionary basis for our human
problem-fear is not to be elided
but to be controlled and used.

Only fools are not afraid.
Fear can be q powerfully crea-

from q lighthouse to sulfanilimide,

whether In engineer or eco

Of its motivation the desire to

One Of the strange phenomena
Of the last century Is the spectacle
Of religion dropping the appeal to

Lucas 10 Introduce
Bill for Restoration
OF Crop Insurance
BY the Associated Press

by tHe Associated PIeSs.
Senator Lucas, Democrat, of
Illinois announced today that he will
introduce tomorrow, on the recon-
vening of Congress, legislation to
reinstate the crop insurance pro-
gram.
The Lucas statement came after
James G.. Patton, president of the
National Farmers Union, asserted
that the 1914 production of wheat
"is being threatened by Congress
refusal to continue crop insurance
and parity payments" and de-
manded their immediate restoration.
Senator Lucas said his measure
would provide for an appropriation
of $7,8l8,748, the amount set up for
the insurance program in the
original budget estimate.
Insurance funds were cut to So
100000 for liquidation of the in
surance plan, shortly before Con-
gress took its summer recess.
Senator Lucas said discontinuance
of the insurance was "a great blow
to the security of the farmer and
his fanfiysF and reported that he
found, numerous farmers during his
summer stay in Illinois who had
been saved from ruin by insurance
indemnities after disastrous: floods.
"As matters stand today" Me. Pat
ton said. War Food Administra ator
Marvin Jones has set the 1914 wheat
production goals at>68 100000 acres,
an increase of 10000 900 acres or 80
per cent over the 100000 acres
planted for 1943-and farmers have
the prospect of being paid 81 cents
per bushel less with no Federal
crop insurance against loss"
He declared that fall blowing and
planting of winter wheat, normally
we'll under way by September /, has
already been delayed IL days by
this uncertainty.
