claSsed as friendly Indians" as
are all the Choco inhabitants.
They are employed by the Inter-
American Geodetic Survey engi-
neers to carry requirements for
observing stations up the steep
rivers in their dugouts. They
can get through quite tumultuous
rapids and can be relied upon to
carry the observing parties as
far as any transportation is pos
sible.
CanOeiSts Turn Out
Whenever one of the army's
M-boat landing craft comes up
the river whole villages turn out
in their canoes, men and women
stripped to the waist. They try
to attach the canoes to the boat
which moves altogether too fast
for them. Turnovers are newt
able, dumping everybody in the
river. The Indians regard this
as fine fun.
To the superficial observer II
would appear that these water
Indians'A had little culture. Their
houses are crude. Their only arr
is basket weaving. with very little
beauty in the designs. Anthro-
biologists who have studied them
more intimately, however, say
they still retain a rather CON-
pick and profound mythology
and philosophy of nature. Every
person, and every object in ma
ture. is believed to have a soul
The human being may have five
or six-one of which survives
after death and goes to an after
world. This is quite different
from the life principle" which
after the death of the individual
returns to the general life rese-
voir of the universe.
In addition there are all sorts
of souls responsible for such
qualities as industry. intelligence,
ETC., whose strength can be in
creased or lessened by "medi-
cines" known to the village
Shamans.
Regard Earth As Flat
The earth is considered as a
fiat surface under which are
eight layers of the underworld
and, above. eight layers of the
upper world. abode of good spirits
where go the souls of worthy
individuals. A sun ship and a
moon ship traverse the sky. Ma

defined powers to protect the
health, welfare and morals of its
citizens. The big question would
be whether a State ban on the
brewing of beer by foreign-owned
corporations amounts to a
proper use of the State police
power.
Gold-Rush Case Recalled
We can only guess at the prob
able answer, but a fascinating
case which arose in California
during the gold-rush days may
provide a clue.
Along in the 1850's California
became annoyed with the influx
Of "chippies" and "debauched
women" who were being i'm
ported to keep the lonely miners
happy while simultaneously re-
lieving them of much of their
hard-won gold. So the State
empowered certain officials to
fine or tax out-of- State ship
captains who debarked such
passengers at California ports.
This, it felt, was the States
Iprerogative in the interests Of
its internal welfare.
Nevertheless. when a dis
gruntled sailing skipper took his
rights to court he got this Cali
fornia practice declared invalid.
The offense, it was decided, was
not clearly enough related to
the public welfare to permit such
regulation of foreign ship own
terS.
Times change. of course, and
so do judges ideas. But it is a
good bet that the Maryland
beer bill would have found the
going a bit rough had it be-
come law.

was ambitious and devoted. and
am temperamentally incapable
OF taking on work in an indiffer-
ent spirit. I cannot see how
could return to my work with
out concentrating on it, and with
out badly neglecting ourchildren.
r. TIT is true there is no
financial urgency. ! fear, how
ever, that my wife is deteriorat-
ing and that the children may
not have as much respect for her
IN the future as the children of
some working mothers who live
in our neighborhood. I think it
would perk up my wife to work
and to compete with other people
and I feel we could give the
children the services they should
have for much less money than
my wife could earn.
THE COUNCILS VIEWS
Mr.. r. T. is fearful the chill
dren may compare their mother
unfavorably with other mothers.
He seems to understand that,
financially, the gains to the fam
lily would be limited.
Mrs. r. T. should appraise
herself effectively in the light
OF this question. Is she burying
herself in the kitchen? Is she
neglecting her appearance and
her interest in the world about
her? If so, she must make an
earnest effort to widen her in
terests. This can surely be done
without becoming absorbed in a
commercial occupation.
Mrs. r. It's husband is fortu-
nate that his wife knows herself
well enough to realize that she
could not return to her profess
sion without making her home
interests suffer drastically.
The husband has pointed to a
danger that can be averted, but
the wife has pointed to far
greater danger. Children may
take pride in mother who is
worldly and "up-to-date," but
they can be bitterly resentful
when they feel they have been
denied care and affection. Hired
help is seldom acceptable in
place of family devotion.
