Even though one works excep-
tionally hard into middle and old
age, there is energy enough in the
weakest of US to keep us going
at top speed for life time. We
have only to set 1t free.
II you suffer from fatigue, you
say right away that the cause is
overwork. You think you need a
rest. You believe a long rest, a
well paid job with light work is
all you need to be rested.
DO you know there Is no such
condition known to science as
a state Of chonlc fatigue due to
mental overworke
Natural fatigue is brought on
by physical effort, but even this
sort Of fatigue CANNOT pile up.
The energy lost during the day Is
made up by proper food and a
nights sleep. But If you are tired
after day at work week In and
week out, then even a six months
rest will not help you.
Most of our chronic fatigue is
emotional. OF course some OF 1t
is physical fatigue and the fatigue
that comes with disease, but we
are thinking of the fatigue that
is caused by boredom, worry, in
decision, sense OF inferiority,
little daily fears and timidities.
These fears undermine our
morale and cause far more fatigue
than an out-burst of temper! An
out-burst of temper is far more to
be desired than to "seethe with
resentment for three days"
Do you know that the main
reason for fatigue is boredom?
We can't imagine boredom maxi
ing our feet drag and our back
ache! But as we read on we were
shocked to learn that boredom
with house work has made wo-
men go blind. boredom with a

Witnesses Dispute Senators
Authority to Probe Education

/, the subcommittee was unfair"
in asking whether he was a Com
muniSt but also was "debasing
the Senate by calling a small
man like me to investigate his
thoughts"
He also charged that the COM
mittee was putting itself in q
silly position" by asking teach
ers about their activities and
thoughts" He said that if he
answered the question about
Communist Party membership,
the committee could clay the
groundwork for perjury charges
in the event some crack-pot,
paid hireling or religious fanatic
might swear I was a Com
munist."
In refusing to say whether he
was a Communist or ever at
tended Communist meetings, Mr..
Shaftel said he considered that
question an invasion of his
rights as a citizen and as q
threat to academic freedom. :
Ran for Assembly. -.
Questioning by, Robert Morris,
subcommittee counsel, brought
out that Mr.. Shaftel ran for the
New York State Assembly as~an
American Labor Party candidate
and that he had been associated
with several groups which Mr..
Morris said are on the Attorney
Generals list of subversive
organizations.
"The question you asked me. "
the witness said, "is as silly as
asking that if the moon were
made Of green cheese would I
like that kind of cheese"
Senator Smith broke in to ask
whether the witness thought it
was silly to ask whether Com
munists are teaching the youth
Of our country"
''It is irrelevant" Mr.. Shaftel
answered.
Mr.. Bressler emphasized his
belief that the Senate subcom-
mittee has no authority to in
vestigate educational activities
in local communities and that
the subcommittee was violating
the Constitution by asking him
questions about personal beliefs
and associations.
Mr.. Gold, who disclosed that
he was dismissed several years
ago from the CITY College de-
partment Of romance languages
after he had been called a Com
muntSt. declared that he be-
ieved any one has q right to

tanned less information than

Department investigation, he
said.
The reply to Mr.. Humelsine
characterized the report as
typical of the lack of respect"
he had shown Congress during

into the case after Representa- =
