D The Observation-Disclosures

as the Observation-Disclosures and

. OF all contemporary develop
ments, none is more controversial
at the moment than subliminal
advertising-a means of flashing
some idea or thought on a movie
or TV screen too rapidly to be
consciously perceived, but with
intent to impress the subconscious
mind. Experiments indicate that
subliininal advertising works. At
least, 1t appears to be effective If
recipients are friendly to the sug-
gestion transmitted. Whether it
works on persons unfriendly to
the suggestion, or on neutral per-
sons remains to be seen.
What Do We Do?
Few will argue that the danger
to individual privacy raised by
electronic super-surveillance or by
electronic invasion of his mental
and psychological processes
should be dismissed with a
shrug. But what is the counter
balance, the antidote?
It doubtless rests either with
(a) voluntary restraints by those
employing the electronic ma
chimes, or (b) enlightened regu-
lation and law.
This, of course, is far easier
said than done. Human nature
being what it is, there is at least
a doubt that voluntary restraint
will be enough. And it takes
time, intelligence and initiative to
develop legal doctrines which pro-
tect one element Of a society
without hurting others.
At the present time we have
no firm legal base from which to
operate. Under the American con-
stitutional system, government
can only go so far or move SO
fast in restricting the uses to
which new ideas are put or the
methods by which they are eff
fected. The whole spirit Of Ameri-
can law is to foster invention and
scientific growth. and it is tru-
ism that control by fat or legis-
lation is more likely to stunt than
stimulate scientific endeavor.
The answer then, it seems, must
rest with new and more carefully
defined projections Of the indivi-
dual rather than control, as such.

a New LegoI Area
Now. the surge Of electronics
may bring q new area Of legal pro-
tection-the protection Of the
psyche. 1ik
To be sure that would not be
totally new. American law, follow
ing English common law tradi-
tons. has always recognized q
strong right Of privacy. However,
there would be q new concept In
the recognition that the human
subconscious. the attitude, the
state of mind, and the thought
process are themselves elements
Of privacy which the law should
protect.
In short, the law would under
take to control in some degree the
science Of electronics where it
merges with psychology-but only
when the individual is threatened.
A hint of this sort Of protection
was voiced by a famous jurist
years ago. He was Justice Louis
Brandeis who worried about the
matter when the first overlapping
case hit the Supreme Court in
1928. When the court declined
to outlaw Government wiretap-
ping. Justice Brandeis wrote one
of his most eloquent dissents:
1.-THE makers of our Constitu-
tion,p he said, sought to protect
Americans in their beliefs, their
thoughts, their emotions and their
sensations. They conferred Ton
each of us) the right to be let
alone-the most comprehensive of
rights and the right most valued
by civilized men,"
The New Force of electronicS
may also bring new force to the
words of Mr.. Brandeis.
(In last weeks article on the
New Forces, reference was made
to the use Of automobile after
burners, new motor fuels and de-
vices to filter factory exhaust as
methods of reducing carbon di-
oxide in the air. AS several read
ers have pointed out, the main
purpose Of these devices would be
to combat air pollution and their
effect on the amount Of carbon
dioxide would be minor.)

that there is justification for 1t.
big Brother" may not be here.
But he is rapidly becoming pos
sible-largely because the gifted
characteristics of the electron can
be turned to purposes either
human or inhuman.
Let's take a look at few mod
ern electronic techniques and de-
vices-aside from those already
mentioned-every one of which
has been developed with the best
intentions in the world.
. One of the simplest is the re-
mote radio pickup, or portable
mike. Powered by small dry cells,
we see it employed today when TV
interviewers want to talk to peo-
pie moving around a house or
walking along farm or beach. A
football referee sometimes carries
one in his pocket so the TV audi
ence can hear every word spoken
to players on the field. These mikes
can be made no bigger than a
watch. Slipped SurreptitiouSly into
a mans jacket or a woman's purse,
it would enable an observer to
listen for hours to. the converse
ton of the person carrying it and
of others in the vicinity.
. Engineers have developed a
small ray gun" which can pick
up and record a phone converse
ton without tapping the wire. The
'gun" is simply aimed at the
proper wire from a distance of 80
or 40 feet. AS electronicS go, this
is not a complicated affair either;
it uses well-known principles.
Q General Electric has developed
and is reported building a 360-de-
gree television camera which can
be installed anywhere inconspi-
culously. The person or agency
monitoring this camera will get a
complete panoramic view of every
thing within normal eyesight OF
IFS location Originally designed
for use in the surveillance of heav-
lily travelled traffic areas, the de-
vice has become a possible cleo
tronic overseer for use in large
stores, business offices, classrooms.
. Television education has been
proposed as a way to cope with
the tremendous student bodies OF
tomorrow. Its virtues are appar-
ent in the demonstration of tech
niques and graphic exposition,

THE NEW FORcEs-H
BY PHIL YEAGER
end JOHN STARK

A little less than 100 years nave
passed since England's great
mathematician, James Clerk Max
well, predicted the long-range
utility Of the electron. Only so
years have gone by since De For
est's vacuum tube made electronics
a practical science.
But already man has arrived
at a stage of electronic evolution
which could scarcely have been
envisioned by either. Moreover.
the engineers say, we are on the
threshold Of an electronics world
that may be beyond the capacity
of present imagination.
Up to now. the electron-unlike
the atom--has been force almost
entirely devoted to peaceful prog
ress. True. 1t has become an es-
sential element to certain types Of
destructive machines, such as the
homing torpedo and the guided
missile. But the overwhelming
proportion of It's uses have been
positive ones.
Radio, telephone, television, ra-
dar-theSe and other eiectronic
devices have remodeled our lives.
Their contributions have been per-
haps unsurpassed by developments
in any other single field Of science.
The genius of the electronic
computer. the giant electronic
brains, the semiautomatic and
automatic control systems-with
their great benefits in time-saving
and safety-are just beginning to
be realized. And on the horizon
are a host Of electronic advances
whose potential has not been even
sketchily defined.
Problems Are Beginning
Inevitably the great electronic
advance is beginning to pose So
cial problems.
Some Of these may be taken as
normal growing -pains-for ex-
ample the displacement of labor
due to electronic usurpation Of
nonjudgment jobs once handled
by humans.
Then there is the matter Of
Government ALLEGATION and Ii
censing, another standard conflict
which arises whenever private
parties seek to make use Of the
public domain. Perhaps the great
est single area of benefit to
mankind inherent in the cleo
tronic advance depends upon the
transmission of electric impulses
through space. Yet the air waves,
both by logic and by law, are part
Of the public domain.
But, all in all, these are Sec
ondary troubles.
The real danger which social
scientists see in the goth century's
big electronics boom Is unques-
tionably this one
1t could permit an invasion Of
the human psyche.
This is what gives people that
uneasy feeling when they learn
about the unparalleled scope Of
surveillance and probing which
electronic devices permit today.
Maybe it began with the lie
detector. Maybe it has been en-
HANGED by that ubiquitous re-
minder of the modern highway

BALTIMORE.-Nothing strikes
the fear Of the law into punks.
Baltimore's police department Is
convinced, like a dog triggered to
snarl, pursue. leap and bite.
The department found. for ex-
ample, that two patrolmen &C
companied by dogs could keep
order in a throng of rock N roll
devotees after O show or a dance
where formerly eight burly officers
were required.
The departments K-9 corps
81 carefully trained German shep-
herds-has taken over in some Of
the city's worst trouble spots for
the past year. The results have
been interesting. and have brought
inquiries from other cities-in-
GLIDING New York and Richmond.
Va.
When Police Commissioner
James Hepbron recently released
his report on the city's crime rate
In 1857, it showed a drop Of 6.5
per cent from the previous year.
Mr.. Hepbron said that the de-
terrent effect of the K-9 corps
had a lot to do with the improved
crime picture in Baltimore.
(Washington's crime rate showed
q IA per cent drop for all of 1857,
but the last six months of the
year were 1914 per cent above the
same months in 1860
The effectiveness Of the canine
cops showed up particularly well
in categories where a patroling
dog puts a scare into would-be
lawbreakers. like purse-snatchers
and automobile thieves. Purse
snatchings were down from 286 to
1872 and auto theft sfrom 6,l82 to
1896.
The psychological reaction, Mai.
l.. Wilson Davis points out, is the
sharpest weapon in his K-9 COM
mand. Maj. Davis is q bespec-
tacled 51-year-old reserve officer
in the Marine Corps who trained
dogs for the military forces during
World War II.
Efficient Operotion
The police department prob
ably gets more for It's money in
these eager animals than in any
other phase Of its operations. The
dogs-all pedigreed-have been
donated by interested people. and
the corps has many more offers
than 1t can accept.
Each officer who has q dog as
signed TO him keeps 1t at home
when OF duty. They enjoy the
freedom Of their masters back
yards. The first years budget for
the dog corps was only $l3.670--
$8.l70 as Mai. Davis salary and
$500 for dog food and medical
care.
Mai. Davis and his men train
the shops in the clearing Of a
wooded area near the Northern
district headquarters. When the
dog has learned to obey COM
