Nervous Exhaustion and
Mental Diseases Blamed
On Weather by Savant
Migrations Held Remedy
CINCINNATI. O. (UP) Nervoua
xhaiutlon and mental diseases, with
their toll of suicides and mental
eases, can be blamed on the weather.
In the opinion of Dr. Clarence A.
Mills, University of Cincinnati pro
fessor. Results of years of research on the
ways tn which climate affects animal
behavior and health have been given
a popular Interpretation by Dr. Mills
in hla new book. "Living with the
Weather."
The Invigorating climate of th
north, with Its frequent changes In
atmospheric conditions and tempera
ture, provides a stimulation that con
stantly tempts men and women to
drive themselves beyond their phys
ical capacities. Dr. Mills believes.
The result Is a premature wearing
out of the human machine and break
downs In health and mind, he ex
plains. Even the youth of the nation
la not exempt from thia cumauc
drive, and Dr. Mills holds that It Is
Indeed a "Flaming Youth."
"'Flaming Youth" Is in truth
rery apt label for the American young
people of the north." he writes. "They
are afire with vitality and are con'
suming their life heritage at a rapid
rate.
"As a result, we see the exhaustion
of age creeping down the decades
through middle Ule mto ever earlier
ages. This does not mean that the
life span is shortening, only that the
period of vigor and zet in living Is
being crowded more and more Into
a small early fraction of life.
"The real tragedy of America Is
that our youthful exuberance Is
wasted in energy that little Is left
for carrying on down the decades
which offer the richest values in lire
In only a fortunate few who retain
high vitality past 50 does there occur
full fruition of life's purposes. It Is
those few who supply the leaders of
the nation and builders who advance
civilization."
Pointing out that such diseases as
diabetes, acidosis, toxic goitre, and
pernicious anemia are most flagrant
ly identified with the north, Dr. Mills
goes on to say: "Most important of
all, however. Is the high rate of nerv
ous breakdowns and mental diseases
where the storms are most severe and
the climatic stress greatest.
"Its significance In northern life
today warrants close attention and
study. Suicides, which give us the
best index of mental exhaustion and
Instability, are highest where storm
changes are greatest.
"Waves of suicides show a distinct
tendency to occur at tunes of felling
or low barometric pressure such as
come Just before sudden storm
changes and a drop In temperature
It la at those times that Irritability
rises highest and the nervous system
la most unstable when a feeling of
futility and frustration comes over
many people."
Especially with young adults and
children do such matters as the effect
of climate on social behavior become
acute, according to Dr. Mills, for their
response to stimulation Is much more
emphatic than that which occurs In
later life.
What can be done about It? Dr.
Mills believes that the situation Is
not hopeless. For persons who have
the financial means. It Is advisable
that steps be taken to lessen the dan
gers of the late winter exhaustion so
common in the north by migration
southward. Dr. Mills points out.
"Just as important for the south,
as the winter exhaustion for the

north. Is the depression of energy
level and vitality by the summer
moist heat," he said. "Energy sup
presslon is so prolonged each year
there that the moderate storminess
of the winter brings activity up only
to a level not yet high."
Northern parents. Dr. Mills advices,
should see that their children get
plenty of slep, proper food, outdoor
exercise away from crowds and that
they be kept away from exciting dl
versions, so far as possible, in their
free time.
Sports contests In the north place
too much stress on the nervous ex
citement afforded the onlookers and
not enough emphasis upon physical
exercise of the players. Dr. Mills de
clares. Instead of larger football
stadia, he writes, the country nee :1s
hundreds of tennis courts.
Work on the re-surfacing of the
Pacific highway between Sixth street
and the north city limits will start
the end of February, weather condi
tions permitting, V. I. Goodnight,
resident engineer for the state high
way here, said today.
The contract for this work has been
let, and provides it be completed by
June 30. It will be finished lo:ig
ere that date, and with the minimum
of Inconvenience to traffic, it Is as
serted. Contracts were let yesterday by the
state highway commission for the
surfacing and grading of the Mur-phy-Provolt
section of the Williams
Creek secondary highway, and the
construction of a steel bridge over
the Applegate river, and a concrete
bridge over Grays creek. The work
Is all In Josephine county.
The grading-eurfactng contract was
awarded B. C. Hall of Eugene for
$20,978. It is for 1.3 miles.
The bridge contracts were awarded
to Tom Lilleo of Reed&port for A.
422. Engineer Goodnight said the work
on the Murphy-Provolt project would
start within ten days or two weeks.
RECOVERY BILL
SALEM. Feb. I. (Jp) Only one per
son appeared to oppose the state tn
dust rial recovery bill at Its public
hearing before the Joint Industries
committees of the senate and hoaae
of representatives lut night.
If passed, the measure would per
mit intrastate firms to establish codes
similar to those permitted for Inter
state under the National Recovery
Act.
The sole opponent. Mrs. Ana Long
of Portland, representing the Em
ployed Women's Portective league. :
statM the feared the bill would open
the way for reducing store hours,
thereby resulting In the dismissal of
present employes. She said she re
ferred particularly to food stores and
bakeries. !
