The endeavor 10 evade con-
science springs from strong mo-
tives. We profoundly desire ito
avoid self-blamc, and 10 serve
that end we discover many et-
fective devices and techniques.
Conscience is easily drugged
with self -justifications. Or if we
cannot drug it we commonly
harness and guide it in accord
ance with our dominant self-in-
terestS.
Of one famous statesman 1T
was said that he followed the
dictates of his conscience - as
the driver follows the horse.
The psychologists call this pro-
cess naturalization, y and ac-
cording TO Freud's definition.
ITO rationalize is the uncon
sciouS tendency TO represent our
conduct in the best light, to sup
press the real source of our
questionable deeds, to depict
them as actuated by worthy and
dlsinterested motives, and to
represent past occurrences rath-
er as we wish they had been
than as they were
How comforting a process this
is anyone can perceive in his
own experience. In moral fail
ure self-blame can become in
tolera bic. There are times when,

science takes up more room

like the voice Of doom. Never
theless, we have not been left
altogether without resource.
When we can no longer endure
being ashamed of ourselves, we
can by naturalization alter our
emotional attitude into being
sorry for ourselves. This is one
of the most fateful transforma-
tons of attitude in human expc-
rience, and it is in constant use.
Yet self blame, honestly faced
and accepted, is one Of personal
lty's most necessary functions.
After years of work with coll
lcgc students, Dean Robert
WickS, of Princeton. says that
whenever a boy has come

ways has traced the change back

ouire extra effort from those at home
Nowhere, according to present indications, will
this extro effort be needed more than in TODD pro-
duction So before we become too immersed in post
war planning and political speculation, let's take O
serious look at the prospects,
There are two chief difficulties among the pre-
dictobe obstacles to raising still another record crop
in lo44 One is the scarcity Of labor. The other con-
fusion regarding future Of price control and stobiI-
zotion
Solution Of the second difficulty rests with Con-
oress and the President Their task is complicated
by the shortage Of time and by the hot political fight
the subsidy program.
Solution Of the first problem rests with women
and youths and men out Of service. Last year women
and boys and girls under Is mode UP about $780,
600 Of the 100000 supplementary workers. This
year the Department Of Agriculture estimates that
this supplementary force will have to be 4 100000
1t has assigned to women and youngsters the task
Of making up the difference.
The implication in this is that the remaining 2
600 600 Of lost yeors seasonal workers marked q
peak figure, and that we cannot depend on getting
more important labor war prisoners and furIouehed
soldiers to take UP the slack.
It's job for the ordinary civilian, and the need
may be even greater than the Agriculture Depart
ments estnnote shows. For since the estimate was
issued, droft deferments for farm workers have Been
frightened, and the agriculture labor force is now at
record low - per cent below the figure at the
same time lost year.
There is every indication that our annual food
crop will have fewer producers and more consumers
in 1914 than ever before. The armed forces needs
cannot be denied. An invasion of Europe will neces-
sitote heavy requirements, and the liberation of
holf-stoyed Europeans will present another outlet
for our food supply
The only solution seems to be for more women
and children to continue the excellent Job done lost
year, for more businessmen within reach Of farms
to give an afternoon or full day whenever possible
for more vocotioners to take holiday Of ogrcuI-
turoI work.

TALON baseball team rolled out on

knocked the league-leading 365th
Infantrymen off their perch by
beating them to in one of the
most thrilling games of the season.
Free for All Battle
The unexpected defeat of the
365th throws the fight for league
championship again wide open" as
the schedule leaves three crucial
games to be played Three teams
are tied for first place with four
victories and one defeat, and two
teams threaten with three wins and
two losses apiece.
Any team in the first five con-
tenders has a reasonable hope for
victory as the league leaders clash
this weekend. Interesting, too, of
the weekend games, will be the
battle between the 1316th Engineers
and tn 827 Tank Destroyers. Neith-
