Army Mento| Ills Blamed On Officers
 No Motivation
 Given Soldiers,
 Scientists Say

Chicago, Aug. 30. CUP)-Many of the mental breakdowns suffered by combat infantrymen during World War II resulted from the failure of officers to stimulate patriotism and incentive among their men, the Journal of the American Medi- cal Association said today.
 The charge was made in re- port by two Philadelphia psychiat- rists, Dr. John w. Appel, formerly attached to the neuropsychiatry consultant division of the Office of the Surgeon General, and Gilbert w Beebe, formerly connected with the Medical Statistics Division Of the Army Medical Corps.
 Based on study of combat con- ditions in the Italian and North African theaters of war in 1944, the report said that infartrymen would have lasted longer in combat if they had received more incen- tive to do so.
 It Is rudimentary knowledge that behavior is determined by motiva- tion, but it is a fact which appears not to have been applied to the in- fantrymen. the psychiatrists said
 The survey showed that the North African theater neuropsy- chiatric casualty rates for rifle bat talions were 40 times that of all other branches Nearly all men in these battalions who were not otherwise disabled ultimately be- came p6ychiaTic casualties, the re- port said.
 The authors said that no man was removed from combat duty in Italy until he had become worth less as fighter"
 The infantryman considers this. bitter injustice they said He feels that he is expected to do 10, or even 100 times as much to win the war as any one else. but he can look forward only 10 death, mutilation or psychiatric break down
 Four Proposals
 The authors suggested four ways to provide incentive to infantry men and thus decrease the tendency to become mentally ill. They wer:
 l. The promise of an honorable release from combat duty at definite time.
 ?. Official recognition of the in- fantrymen as special type of sol- dier with special privileges.
 3. Informing soldiers of the tacti- cal situation and why specific ob- jectives must be taken.
 4. Frequent reminders of what soldiers are fighting for and re- assurances that what they are do- ing is worth while and appreciated.

AS frequently mentioned by
foreign observers, progress in
the three Baltic States was
striking in economic, social,
cultural, and other spheres. A
standard of living was far high
er than that which Lithuania
and the other Baltic countries
had enjoyed during any period
of subjugation, or that exist
ing at any time in the Soviet
Union. In order to evaluate
their progress, one must take
into consideration certain ad-
verse factors, such as the heri-
tage left by the Russian rule,
whose policy it was to impede
Baltic attempts at self-develop-
ment; the time and energy all
spent in the work of reconstruc-
ton after the devastation of
World War l; and, in the case
of Lithuania, the existence OF
territorial problems which at
times absorbed much of the
nations attention.
The following statistics on
Lithuania will serve to illus
trate the achievements of the
independent Baltic States.

THE PERiSCOPE
By 'sARUNAS.

FROM a d. P. camp in Ger
many news have been received
that the mother, two brothers
and two married sisters of An
tanas Snieckus, secretary of the
Communist party in Lithuania
and the "big noise" of Moscow
Imperialism there, chose rather
to go into exile in Germany than
remain to live under Soviet oc-
cupation. Very interesting, in
deed!
A BALTIC States University
has been organized in Hamburg,
in the British zone, under UN
IRA auspices, with $50 profess
sors and 1000 students. About
24O Lithuanian students have
received permission from French
occupational authorities to study
in Tubingen University.
THEODORE C. Petersen, of
the Paulist Fathers, writing in
the Catholic World for April,
says: ''The Baltic peoples have
been robbed of their political
independence.
THE EDITOR of this same
Catholic World says: "We have
told Russia to get out of Man
churia, out of Iran; we should
in all consistency tell her to get
out of the Balcans and the Bal
tic States, and Poland. Sup
pose she challenges us to make
good what we command, not
with notes of protest, but with
arms and men, with blood and
death. What then?
The editor replies: eff the
people of America were permit
ted to speak L think / know what
would say! No doubt, they
would fight for a reign of inter-
national law, and would not give
in to international thievery and
murder.

Some Common Misconceptions about the Baltic States
BY ]. KAJECKAS
Attache of the Lithuanian Legation in Washington

SuoSo, "dA AiAS hiCAaoetAiA%Il AAAN~
pendence was that of Klaipeda. /
The Klaipeda territory is a
narrow strip of land, along the
Baltic coast, consisting Of more
than a thousand square miles
whose prewar population num-
bered $4,000. The main city,
which is also Lithuania's only
port, is Klaipeda. Until it's sci
zure by the Teutonic Knights
in 1922, the territory had been
Lithuanian. It. was, however,
less Germanized than other
parts of East Prussia inhabited
by Lithuanians. German sta
tistics for 1905 indicate that the
German population of the reg
ion amounted to 48.O9 per cent,
while those of 1925 show 45.5
per cent. Because of it's Lith-
uanian character, and because
Klaipeda was Lithuania's only
outlet to the sea, the Klaipeda
territory was detached from the
Germans by the Treaty of Yer
sailles for the purpose of join
ing it to Lithuania. This was
accomplished by the Klaipeda
Convention of May 8, 1924. Un-
der Lithuanian sovereignty, this
area enioved a certain auto
nomy. The detachment of the
territory from Germany can
not be attributed solely to the
versailles Dictate" since the
German government freely ac-
quiesced and, by the Lithuan-
ian-German treaty of January
20, 1928, acknowledged the ter
ritory as an integral part of
Lithuania.
Due to German instigation,
trouble began to brew in the
territory with the rise of the
Nazi tide in Germany. In
1882 the Hague Court of Inter
national Justice decided a case
brought before it in Lithuania's'
favor. German political and &C.
onomic pressure on Lithuania
proved unsuccessful. Refusing
to yield to German threats,
Lithuania brought 1926 persons
to trial in Kaunas in 1884 for
Nazi fifth-column activities. Her
action was unique for the time,
for no other nation in her po-
sition dared defy Nazi might.
The fact that the trial actually
took place is in itself suffi-
cient proof that Lithuania ne
yer entertained pro-Nazi senti-
mentS.
Lithuania lost Klaipeda only
as a result of a German ulti-
matum threatening violence i'm
mediately after the fall of Cze-
choslovakia, in March, 1889.
is loss was no more voluntary
than was the loss of Czecho-
slovakia's independence. The
Klaipeda territory was return
ed to Lithuania after the So
Wet occupation of the area at
the end of January, 1915. How
ever, Lithuanians are at pre-
sent no more masters in Klai-
peda than they are in the rest
of Soviet-occupied Lithuania.
Neither Latvia nor Estonia
1ad territorial problems of such
magnitude as those of Lithua-
MIA during the period between
the two world wars.

The Poles, in seeking to SUBJ
stantiate their claims to Vilnius
have often alleged that evil
MUS is not in the Lithuanian
racial area" since non-Lithuan-
ian nationalities predominant in
the region. It should be said
that Vilnius, founded in 1928,
before the period of Lithuan-
las expansion, was in Lith-
uania Propria. 1t has remain
ed the capital of Lithuania
ever since. Even under for
eign occupation-Czarist Rus
sian, French, German, and So
viet-Vilnius has been the ad-
ministrative center of the coun-
try. The population statistics
compiled by Lebedkin, Korevo,
D'Erkert, and Ritich between
1857 and 1864, as well as the
official Russian census of 1897
and the Russian Red Cross da-
ia of 1907, all prove that the
Lithuanian element in the Viii
MUS area is predominant in
comparison to the Polish. The
German census of 1917 is con-
sidered unreliable on the ground
expressed in a memoir of the
Lithuanian delegation to the
Brussels Conference on June
2, 1921.
The fact that the racial COM
position of the Vilnius area, &C
cording to some statistics, show
the predominance of Jewish and
Ruthenian elements is often
overlooked. The sentiments of
these two groups have always
been pro-Lithuanian rather than
pro-Polish, as was proved dur
ing the Zeligowski ''plebiscite"
The Jews, according to Israel
Cohen in his recent book evil
ma, regarded that city just
as much a part of Lithuania
as Kovno (Kaunas)." The So
called "tuteishy," or natives
mostly of Lithuanian and Ru-
thenian origin, do not claim
any nationality, and cannot be
regarded as Poles; they are al
ways favorably disposed to
Lithuania. The "Poles" whose
existence in the Vilnius region
is claimed by Poland are large
ly either. Polonized Lithuanians,
who in many cases reverted to
Lithuanian nationality after the
return of part of the Vilnius
region to Lithuania, or Poles
who have been especially i'm
ported from Poland since 1920
for the colonization of the re-
gion.
1t is likely that the number
of Poles in the Vilnius region
has decreased under the present
Soviet occupation. A treaty
signed by the Lithuanian pup
pet government and the Polish
Lublin government on Sept. 22
1914, provided for the "volun-
tary" repatriation of Poles to
Poland. 1t has also been stat
ed authoritatively that $4,000
persons, mostly from the east
ern regions of Lithuania, left
for the Soviet Union early in
1945, and it is possible that a
great many Poles were includ-
ed in that number. AS for the
Jews, brutal Nazi extermina-
tion policies during the three
year occupation of Lithuania
have greatly decreased their
number. On the otner hand,
the Russian element has in
creased due to an influx of
Russian evacuees and refugees
and the present Soviet policy
Of colonization.

return of crop residues and the use
of supplementary nitrogen fertilizers.
"On young plants, purplish-tinted
leaves may mean deficiency of
phosphorus. Plants make slow
progress in growth and develop
ment. Phosphorus deficiency occurs
chiefly in acid soils. Lining bene-
fits these soils by creating more
favorable soil reaction for the phos-
phate fertilizers applied to correct
the deficiency.
"Potash deficiency is indicated by
yellow and brown 'scorched' edges
and leaves. This symptom must be
distinguished from the yelloWing
of the midribs that characterize nj
trogen starvation. Potash is the
mineral nutrient that determines
the efficiency working of the corn
plants. 1t is needed in all parts of
the plant for growth, for starch pro-
daction, for the manufacture of pro-
teins, and for the absorption of min
eral nutrients by the roots.
"When potash starvation symp-
toms are noticed, a definite degree
of soil exhaustion is indicated. The
only way to correct this deficiency
is to apply potash fertilizers"
