Brace Believes Minds Transmit Impulses, Like Radio Stations, Through Action of Nerve Cells. BY ‘THOMAS R. HENRY A theery of “mind” which would ac- count for the alleged phenomena of telepathy and spiritualism on & purely materialistic basis, is proposed in the current medical bulletin of the United States veterans’ administration. 1f such weird happenings as thought transference from brain to brain over distances actually can be demon- according to the theory ad- Van by Dr. Clifford C. C. Brace, psychiatrist at the United States Vet- erans’ Hospital at North Chicago, IIL, they ma explained by carrying to extreme ‘onnlm some of the concepts of behavioristic psychology, which de- nies the existence of human conscious- ness altegether end regards the mind only as & complicated anatomical ma- chine. Based on Nervous System. The theery is based on the functions of the two major divisions of the hu- man nervous system—the brain-spinal | cord the autonomic systems. The rve cells of the latter are located in of ganglions outside the spinal tween the two systems there are only very tenuous connections. The first is the center of all supposedly con- scious behavior. The second, presum- I:hly much the older in the evolution- ary progress of animal life, controls Ilome of the int-rnal mechanisms of the body which are necessary to life | but which proceed without the individ- ual being re of them. lieved by many to be. in large part at loast, t arricr of the emotions. Now, says Dr. Brace. “the study of lectricity has led to the discovery of electromagnetism and induction cur: rents where structural contacts are un- neeessary. May not physicochemical It is be- | changes accompanying the formations of neural engrams induce powerful ra- diations as a result of being reinforced by powerful stimuli from the autonomic system? It has already been suggested that the autonomic and cerebrospinal systems interact as a neural induction coll, raising the voltage of a stimulus- response arc to a point where the cur- rent jumps across the electrode or pro- duces a magnetic fleld of energy.” Accounts for Telepathy. Some such notion as this would ae- count for telepathic exchange of thought, proof of which has thus far escaped scientific investigators and has been deferred to awalt the solution of the question of the existence of a spe- cial organ for distance reception. Hav- | ing reached this point, there should be | no hesitation in crossing the border of metaphysics to make the further suj gestion that the phenomena of spiritual- ism may be due to the projection of centrally made engrams by means of neural radiations. We must not forget the possibility that the world outside each one of us may be of our own cre- ating and that we cannot be certain the other person’s receptors translate stim- uli into the same meanings as our own. | “Wireless waves were thought impos- | sible of production until the radio | demonstrated a mechanical sensitivity cbtained by tuning one piece of ma- chinery to be receptive to stimuli from | enother, and yet we are inclined to deny a similar reaction between minds, | because it sounds metaphysical. If we could assimilate the behavioristic ana- tomical mind and forget the vitalistic concepts of consclousness, it would be much easier for us to view such pos- sibilities impartially.” ‘Thus, according to Dr. Braee's theery, T ————————————— WEDNESDAY, every human nervous system may be, generally speaking, an anatomical ;:‘ounurp-n of a radio transmitting sta- on, sufficient current is applied in the form of emotions. . Carrying still further the concept of the structural basis of mind, Dr. Brace advances a behavioristic concept of how the mind may wipe out, so far as the individual is concerned, the outside world of reality, leading to the various forms of insanity. This is by means of the “circular reflex” described as “the evolution on a large scale of the inter- nal mechanism of the atom where quanta of energy are emitted from the electrons as the speed and shape of their circular course is modified by stimuli from other electronic systems.” Constellations Named. WXt is this mechanism,” he says, “which gains prominence in psychopa- thology. The loosely linked circular re- flexes easily break away to form au- tochthonous ideas holding the focus of attention and creating their own hallu- cinatory satellites. Such constellations, When l\lrpomd bring all the a system under their control, The myriad combinations resulting from the associ~ ation of these constellations of phantasy with each and every organ of special sense have been classified and named by psychiatry. “The disintegration of the mind fis | one of function and is to be to the asynchronization of & alternating current generators whe: structure to the smallest wire is un- changed, but the forces to which they give existence are being unleashed and , will turn on their creators, reducing them to a twisted mass of copper and scorched rubber, So it is with the brain. “Man, in order to better enable him to devise ways of nfaking his surround- ings adjust to him instead of adapting himself to them, has provided a me- chanism by which an image can ac- quire a personality of its own: an imaj that now has the power of disintegrat- ing the structure from which it was fcrmed and, in the process of doing so, | annihilates itsel!
