BALTIMORE, February 18.—People | who stutter were pictured by a scientist ! today as being like a motorist trying to | ‘step on the gass” and applying the akes at the same time. A battle for control between “starting” -nd “stopping” mechanisms in the Lrain is the cause of stuttering, the American Orthopsychiatric Association was told by Frederick W. Brown, mem- ber of the National Committee for Mental Hygiene. One part of the stutterer's brain, the | motor cortex which controls speech, is urging “Go ahead and say it,” while another part, the thalamus, which responds to emoticnal stresses, is, clamoring “Don't say The reason | that stutterers keep beginning their | | sentences over again is that the motor cortex keeps gaining the upper hand, | but is continually stopped again by the thalamus, like an auto driver alternately applying the “gas” and then the brakes, he said. When the two forces become equal the stutterer is completely silenced. Responses Out of Control. Stutterng occurs only when the speaker’s emotional responses get out rol, Brown declared So long as there is rapport (agree- ment) between the feelings and desires of the speaker and the words he is per- mitted by the social situation to utter, his s within the limits of normai | intensity of emotional expression, is well controlled. But let the intensity of the | rmotion be increased—let the stimulus | to speech. for example, call forth intense expressions of fear, anger, pain or love— |and even under’the most favorable circumstances, the interference with the | cortical control of the local organs is markediy noticeable. There are, as a | rule, disturbances of breathing, of tone | quality. of pitch, of articulation and even of the content of tought.” | Most children have similar, stereo- |typed ideas about “who is the greatest |living man,” and “who is the greatest | man who ever lived.” Dr. H. Meltzer of |the Psychiatric Child Guidance Clinic, St. Louis, reported. These ideas, how- ever. do rot personify the individual child’s real ideals, he said erd iceals,” common to almos one 81 Per Cent Alike. | He esked 250 children “who is the |greatest living man?” Five names, ;Hfln .

Th~ children then were asked, “Who is the greatest man who ever |lived?” The_leading answers were | Washington, Lincoln, Jesus, Columbus and God. These five names constituted | 81.7 per cent of the answers. | The concentration of the five names lin each group. Meltzer said. is inter-| | preted “as signifying that what is per- | sonified is ‘herd ideals’ or stereotypes rather than ideals which really inte- grate ith the child personalities udied. Possibility that prison inmates are “imprisoned in min as well as in bedy and that this may be one reason for delinquency was ruzgested by a re- port of the famous “ink-blot test | given to 35 convicts at the Massachu- | setts State Prison by Samuel J. Beck jof the Boston Psychopathic Hospital. | ‘f Have Less Imagination. | In the “ink-blot test” the subjects are asked to tell what ideas are aroused {in_their minds by lo different shapes and sizes | ideas given to the prisoners by the blots | were compared with ideas aroused by the same blots among a group of in- teliigent people outside. | Beck found the prisoners seemed to | have less imagination, less originality, fewer ideas and less confidence in these ideas, more restraint, a more restricted inner and outward mental life than | the other group. He suggested this may | help explain why they became crim inals. but in what way is so far unde- termined. ENVOY REACHES U.S. and Wife | Spanish Ambassador Visit in San Francisco.

Speaking at n}e opening session of the District Chrisian Endeavor Convention, Senator Smith W. Brookhart of Iowa declared last night that during a single week in pre-prohibition days “I saw more drunken Congressmen than I have seen drunken men on the streets of | Washington in the past nine years” | ‘The Iowa Senator told of the old days when the House of Representatives had | an open bar. It was a common sight | then, he said, to see a member of Con- | gress under the influence of liquor. | He called the prohibition laws the | “greatest victory of the World War, | conceding that they came from that source,” and scored the proponents of the return of liquor, especially the Cru- | saders. This organization, he declared, has taken a religious title for an irre- ligious purpose. Blames Monied Interests. The country is being flooded with a great mass of anti-prohibition propa- | ganda, Senator Brookhart told the ycung people. Much of this, he said, is traceable to large monied interests, which hope, by establishing a tax on liquor, to avold their just contribution to_the support of Government. The convention is being held at the new National City Christian Church, at Thomas Circle, and will continue through Saturday. Sessions are only in l)\l'] evenings. William _C. Bond, preside: District. | Christian " Bad sor. Dniom presided. The meeting opened with a song service led by Dr. E. C. Barnes, with Chester Williams at the organ. Dr E. Wilfley, pastor emeritus of the Na- tional City Christian Church, delivered the invocation, and Senator Brookhart spoke, bringing greetings from Con- RTess The pastor of the church, the Rev. H. H. Harmon, welcomed the approxi- mately 1,000 delegates. Justin Lawie. choir leader of Foundry Methodist Epis- copal Church, was heard in vocal selec- tions.
