Program Aids
German Youth

How democracy is being taught
to the youth of Germany through
the American-sponsored German
Youth Activities program was de-
scribed to members of the Con-
gressional Club at tea yesterday
at the clubhouse.
The speaker was Miss Margaret
Sorenson. adviser of women's and
girls activities of the GYA, who
is now on leave in this country.
Miss Sorenson estimated that
100000 young people are being
reached through the program
which is designed to counteract
the effects of the Hitler youth
movement. In addition the pro-
gram also reaches their parents
and many already are serving as
advisers.
Although Miss Sorenson and her
staff are paid by the United States
Government, she pointed out that
the program is dependent for sup
plies on contributions. GIs have
been most generous, she said, and
donations also have come directly
from this country.
The program includes various
groups devoted to such subjects as
music, art, sewing, crafts, sports
and discussion. Democratic meth
DDS, such as election of officers,
are stressed.

On Emotion
By Ruth Deem

Common sense, fortitude, expe-
rience and little knowledge can
generally solve most emotional
problems, but when none of these
works. it's time to see a psychiat-
rist, members of the Women's Ma
tional Press Club were told yes
terday.
Their advisor was DR.. Daniel
Blain. medical director of the
American Psychiatric Association
who addressed the club at a
luncheon at the Mayfower Hotel
DR.. Blain spoke informally on
the most commonly asked ques-
tions on the subject of mental
health and psychiatry, such as
How can you tell If you have a
serious emotional difficulty?"
Using as an example a stubborn
cold for which the patient would
get a doctors treatment if it be-
came worse, DR.. Blain explained
a similar test could be applied to
an emotional problem. IF you
continually worry and lose sleep
over it. that means it is too big
for you to handle and psychiatric
treatment is Indicated" he said
AS a guide for happy. normal
mental health, he quoted a list of
rules for living suggested by DR.
George S. Stevenson, president of
the American Psychiatric Associa-
ton: Accept a moderate respon-
sibility for yourself and others,
conform with general customs, be
independent and dependent on
suitable occasions, be moderate in
most things, be capable of strong
feelings, pursue a steady course
turn your worries into objective
problems, and have a philosophy
Of life.
DR.. Blain, who is a consultant
to the Neuropsychiatry Division of
the Veterans Administration, ap-
praised the progress made by
psychiatry over. the past few years
He cited the Veterans Admins
tration's pioneering in the adop-
ton of brief psychotherapy treat
ment methods, and predicted this
new advance would allow the
psychiatrist to see more patients
and thus bring down the cost OF
medical treatment.
He also lauded the work being
done by the United States Public
Health Service through the Ma.
tional Mental Health Act.
In answer to a question, DR.
Blain agreed that the use Of
psychiatry to alleviate pain hac
been very useful. Asked wha
psychiatrists thought of euthan.
asia, he said: Every psychiatris
thinks differently on the subject
Generally speaking, I'm not il
favor of it, because I wouldn'
want to make a decision OF
whether or not a person shoule
live"

ated, so self satisfied as those who
live just to themselves.
And finally those husbands and
wives who have just lived for each
other and made of their homes q
little heaven in which they were
content to stay, are likely to be the
victims of the most terrible trag-
edy that can be woven of the
woof and warp Of death. For If
one is taken, the other is left alb
solutely desolate, with no friends
to turn to, nowhere to go, no re-
sources left. His or her all is
gone.
So. newlyweds, be warned. Be
domestic, but, not too domestic.
Keep the home fires burning, but
don't nail yourself too closely to
your own hearthstone. The more
outside interests you have the
more interesting you will be inside.

Young Married People Make q Mistake
In Neglecting Outside Social Contacts

One Of the mistakes that a great
many young married people make
Is in going too domestic as soon
rs they are married. They resign
from all their clubs. They drop
out Of their old circle and drift
away from all their friends. They
give up all Of their sports and
amusements and narrow their
world down to their work and
their homes.
They even account it unto them
selves for righteousness that they
never go to parties or play golf OF
dance. and that they are always
in bed by II o'clock and never
seek any diversion wilder than q
neighborhood movie or wheeling
Junior out in his pram on Sunday
afternoons.
The newlyweds may feel that
they are sufficient unto themselves
and that they desire no society but
each others. but this is as un-
wholesome for them as if they
tried to live upon an exclusive diet
OF one sort of food. We need
variety in our mental menus as
well as our physical ones. Other
wise we get fed up on even the
daintiest fare and lose our appe-
tite for it.
See Too Much of Eoch Other
The greatest menace to matri-
mony is that husbands and wives
see too much of each other, any,
way. They bore each other be-
cause they get overdoses of each
others company. Most families
spend their evenings sitting up in
o silence so thick you cut it with
o knife because they have simply
talked out.
And this state Of affairs is in
tenSified II the husband and wife
deliberately cut themselves off
from association with other peo-
pie and retire like hermits into
the home cave. They are simply
asking for trouble. For, human
nature being what it is, and
especially modern human nature
being what it is, ever seeking a
thrill, how can any man and wom-
an even expect to keep each other
interested for 80 or 40 years by a
solo performance?
We have to get away from those
we love to get a perspective on
