CHILDREN SELECT BENERICIAL PLAY, SURVEY REVEALS Johnny, Mary Their Own Ath- letic and Mental Trainers in Tender Years Cleveland, June 16.—()—Little Johnny and Mary are their own ath- Jetic and mental trainers during the Process of growing up. ‘ They seem to know what's good for them, and by accident or design they play with tuys that do them the most good developmentally. This is one of the secrets being. revealed about children and their development, their growth and defi- ciencies by the Brush Foundation of Cleveland as it conducts a five-year search for a definition of a well-born human being. “Children in their play select the large manipulative toys which, be- cause of their weight and general cumbersomeness, develop the large Jeg and arm muscles at the age when these should be developed,” says Dr. Dewey L. Anderson, director of psychological research for the foun- dation. “If the toys are such that they have but a single use, or do not allow for being pulled apart and put back together, they are not so popular with the youngsters.” “High hats” among the children, Dr. Anderson has found, are the least intelligent, while the more intelligent likewise are the more sociable. The foundation’s child laboratory is the nursery school at Western Reserve university, where a selected group of small children is brought by parents for observation and study. ‘The children also are given tests to measure their muscular and intel- lectual development. These consist chiefly of cutting paper, holding their arms steady, stringing beads and put- ting puzzles together. Dr. Anderson says these tests have revealed that a child is consistent in his behavior from day to day. STARKE ADDRESSES N.D.

U.S. Deficit May Be Less Than Expected Washington, June 16.—(#)—The federal government may end the fis- cal year June 30 with a treasury deficit considerably less than the $950,000,000 estimated by President Hoover.
