Psychiotry in Crime

uOtc IIldI MI. 0EOyIliA1
will try to investigate the
degree to which crime condi-
tions in the Capital are the
result of failure Of the judges
to impose sentences Of a
reasonably deterrent nature.
Such an investigation is
highly desirable, but 1t will
fall short Of its possibilities
of greatest usefulness If it
does not include an investi-
CATION Of the extent to which
the fine-spun theories of psy
chiatrists have befuddled the
courts and are being used to
shield the criminal and pre-
vent the imposition Of deter
rent sentences.
Recently the press quoted
one psychiatrist as saying
that lawyers should be edu-
Gated to- have more conf
dence in psychiatriSts.
Another article stated that
physicians in the Department
Of Health, Education and
Welfare felt that psychia-
trists were avoiding the use
Of their medical skills in the
treatment of patients. Appar-
emily the psychiatrists felt
that when they had talked
with a person and had made
their guess as to why he
acted in a sociopathic way,
they had done all that could
be expected of them.
When a psychiatriSt takes
the stand and testifies that
an individual was insane
when he committed a crime
many months ago and long
before the psychiatrist had
ever seen him, the question
naturally arises as to how the
pSychiatrist can, with GER
tainty, determine what a
mans mental condition was
at the time Of the commits
sion Of the crime.
The term "Sociopath" Is
not to be found in the die
tionary, and yet psychiatrists
have offered the allegation
that an individual was a
"Sociopath" in such indivi-
dual's defense. When the
chief Of police Of Washing
ton was asked to, define the
term "sociopath", he defined
1t, I believe, as just a mean"
so-and-so. If we are going to
conclude that every indivi-
dual who is just a mean So
and-so is automatically given
a license to rape, rob and
murder. then we would be
better off to turn to vigilante
committees than to rely upon
any system Of jurisprudence
of such complete asininity.

SPIRES OF THE SPIRIT
| Was Hungry
By DIR. FREDERICK BROWN HARRIS, DID.
Chaplain of the United States Senate

lives we touch, ana VINO
touch ours, have never been
hungry. The gnawing hor-
ror which for millions is
wrapped up in that word
hungry-is foreign to our
way Of life. We live in q
land where for the over
whelming majority of in
habitants the way to better
health is to eat less. The
food calories are so abundant
that we are cautioned to
count the number the body
requires, and to put up the
mo trespassing" sign for the
rest for which the gluttonouS
taste-buds clamor.
The communications me-
diumS, on paper and by air
waves, are urging Americans
to stop digging their graves
with their teeth.
On this shrinking planet,
so rapidly becoming before
our eyes truly a neighbor-
hood, the poignant fact is
being made increasingly clear
that the pressing human
problem is not to refuse food
but to get enough to keep
body and soul together. The
startling truth is that a
majority of those who share
this earth with us are always
hungry. That terrible situa-
ton accounts for most of the
misery which still stalks the
earth and which for hordes
Of humans makes existence a
living hell.
With space practically
eliminated, these impover-
ished, teeming millions are in
plain sight Of the piled up
food on the shelves and on
the tables of the wasteful
"haveS" Of the world. That
Is one Of the driving factors
Of the present world revolu-
ton, as with volcanic in
sistence the hungry are de-
manding that some of the
opulence Of the privileged be
channeled to meet their
awful needs.
It is being brought home
now as never before to the
conscience Of those in lands
Of plenty who call themselves
Christian, that unrelieved
hunger anywhere is a blatant
denial Of their professed
faith. One Of the chief tenets
Of any genuine Christian
creed Is II believe that hu-
manity Is one" It follows
that the number Of miles
distant from our own COM
fort any human need may
be has nothing to do with
our personal responsibility
for responding to every cry
for help. All that is needed
to insure ready response to
the moving needs of ones
fellows on any part of the
earth's surface is a Sancti-
fled imagination. George
Bernard Shaw, in his Joan
Of Arc" makes a bishop ex-
claim: Must, then, a Christ
perish in torment in every
age to save those who have
no imagination?"
If we but visualize the suf.
fering of those half a world
away, If our hearts are right,
we will hasten to share our
bounty with them as prompt
ly and with the same inner
satisfaction as if we were
carrying some Of our surplus
food to a starving family who
lives in our town.
And now is the time for
America to wrap her good
will in food sent gladly and
with no strings attached
wherever it will fill empty
stomachs. The amounts now
being sent must be aug
mented into a mighty flood.
OF course communism with
its lies is batting the hook
Of their serfdom with bread.
They offer to the hungry
bread and fetterS. The free

Cute Trick

a. N1dCAJ 1oudCk, the balClm0re p0llt-
ical boss, as an armored truck pulled
up to the Maryland State House in
Annapolis, loaded with referendum
petitions challenging the new Maryland
savings and loan industry control law.
Well, we have different adjective
in mind-Several, in fact. For apart
from challenging the new law, these
petitions have prevented the law from
taking effect at all, and have forced
Governor TaweS to call an expensive
and troublesome special session of the
Legislature for next week end in order
TO adopt the control provisions in new
and, in all likelihood, inferior ''emer-
gency" form.
Assuming that sufficient number
OF the Pollack petition signatures are
valid, the original control law will
remain in a state Of limbo until the
voters Of Maryland can decide whether
TO Kill or to revive it in a referendum
at the November, 1862, elections. The
need for these reforms Immediately
not in 196S-was amply proved by the
disclosures Of the last several months.
Under the circumstances, Governor
raves has little choice in the matter.
Passed as an emergency" law at
the special session, a new savings and
loan act would take effect Immediately.
1t would not be affected, under the
state constitution, by the referendum
petitions filed this week. It's antago-
niStS, Of course, would be perfectly free
to launch another referendum drive
against the emergency" law if they
chose and, If successful this also would
go on the ballot as a referendum item
II months from now. The difference,
however, Is that the effectiveness of
the emergency" bill could not be
postponed.
There nevertheless are problems
ahead. For one thing, a three-fifths
vote of the Legislature is necessary to
adopt emergency" laws. Nor can any
new Jobs or offices be created by
emergency" laws. Thus the powers of
control would have to be vested in
existing State agencies, rather than in
a brand new commission, as the original
bill provided.
Mr.. Pollack contends the special
session Is an attempt to "circumyent"
the right Of the people to overrule acts
OF the Legislature by referendum. But
the point which he avoids is that the
voice Of the people cannot be heard
until November, 1862, and that in the
meantime lawful and widely-supported
act OF the Legislature would be set
aside. The delay involving the savings
and loan act, therefore, is quite a
different thing from the petitions for
a referendum on the grossly unfair
new congressional rediStricting act.
For IN the latter case there will be
no effect until the 1862 elections, and
there will be ample time during the
interim period for the Legislature to
write more equitable bill if it chooses.
But the real culprit in this comedy
OF political maneuvering is the provision
OF the State Constitution which re-
quires only 10000 signatures to force
referendum, requirement unchanged
since 1914. The right of petition must
