Forrest made hi assertion In an address prepared for delivery at a round table discussion on the press at the Institute of human relations. His talk followed one by Oswald Garrison VI Hard, contributing editor to The Nation, before the second general Institute session on the press. Newspaper Barons Hit. VI Hard attacked those newspaper publishers to whom the press "meant that men might be attacked In their column without the freedom to reply to present the truth when truth had been falsified." To the "newspaper barona," Vll lard aald, freedom of the press "did not mean that the freedom of their eolumna was to be extended to those whom they disliked, whose teachings they hated or feared, or merely thought erroneous." "There are great groups In their communities who can never get their aspirations, their point of view printed In thfi eolumna of these newspapers," he aald. s most Alert for Good. Forrest asserted "that all but the few (newspapers) are on the alert very day guarding the canons of good taste In print and pictures, fighting relentlessly against Inac curacy, seeking to get both sides of Phone 511 MODEL BAKERY'S HOLIDAY SPECIALS PRUNE NUT-CAKES A moist, tasty cake will keep fresh several days. 30C and 59C HORSE SHOES A Danish Pastry, filled with finest mincemeat and orange bits. 6 for 15C APPLE PIE 29c 3" 1 i '" f x ., , ' '- jVirm I yt hi u ' S V 'HI rA ti fl -V,' rl ; ;A U r i 4 $ i ' n r ' v . v J ;. ill ?

(fl) Med ical science today, was offered, tn the ohlmpaniee, a new ally to fight the human drug habit. - It la the first animal found to be capable of tak ing morphine like a human and hav ing all of man's reactions. The discovery, made by turning four "chlmpa" Into drug addlote, wa reported to the American Psycho logical association by S. D. Shirley Spragg of the Lale laboratories on primate biology at winter Park. Fla. More Human-Like, With the "dope" the chlmpa became even more human-like than usual. In some ways. Their actlona led Dr. Spragg to conclude there la no Juatl flcatlon for the belief that a person addicted to opiates la neceuarlly a "psychic" or predisposed by any other queer tralta of nature. He said the available reports In dlcated that while there may have been previous attempta to try the effects of drug hablta on various am mala, there haa always been doubt whether the anlmale had the "active desire" of bumans. Monkeys were re ported devoid of any algna of this craving. The chimps would whimper and cry, he said. If an attempt was made to return them to their cages with' out a "ahot" of morphine Injection at the time tbey expected it. If they were taken Into the room where the "ahota" were given and then not Injected, they would scream fight and show other algna of rage. Prefer Dope to Food. They learned to pick up the mor phine ayrlnge to offer It for use on themselves. When hungry they were given the choice of food and the svrlnge. They usually chose the "dope" In place of food. Exceptions were when very hungry and at tne aame time not particularly suffering from lack of morphine. The chimps were taken off the mor phine habit by methods of "with drawal" similar to numan neum. They appeared to be curable about the aame as numana. These "Infra-human" experiments. Dr. Spragg said, mean that persons wishing to understand the reasons for morphine addiction will have to con slder baslo organlo and learning ! tors more than ever before, Evidence that sleep la In part in duced by an extra flow of blood through the brain waa reported by Wallace Nygard. atate dlvlalon of mental hygiene.

"Although there still Is consider able discussion whether the depres sion remains, ther. is no doubt but that the peak has been passed In the Increase of mental patients," Dr. Hsuk said. "By that I mean that economic dis asters In one's life, when he loses his money or his Job or finds It difficult to provide for his family, no longer causes him to be plunged Into Insan ity or mental Illness." The hospital superintendent said there were reasons "why the num ber of mental patients Is In direct ratio to the economic life of the country." gulcldet Also Bos. "Right after the depression, or dur ing the first two or three yeara." he said, "there was . sharp uptrend In mental cases. There also waa a wave of suicides. After the peak of the de pression there was a gradual taper ing off In psychopathic cases." The number of people In public and private lnstltutlona Increased steadily with the depression, he point ed out. "This la due to one salient fact and that is the general soclal-mlnd-edness the coifhtry la attaining now Prior to the depression mental ps tlents were treated In private Insti tutions or were under the cere of their family physicians." Dr. Hauk differs with neuro-pay-chologlsts who believe the depression was a contributory factor towards lowering the general mental health of Americana. Blame.

"Because adversity provide, people with . safety valve for the emotions,' b. said. "th. great matt of people have benefited mentally from be country', financial condition." C la teed as Heroism Dr. Hauk cited Instances of "patho logical bravery" during the depres sion, likening such cases to heroic deed performed by soldiers under tress during th. World wsr. "Tbey happened when the strew and strain was too much on a sol dier mind and he broke that .train by performing some heroic deed. In almost all cases the heroes oouldnt tell how the deed was don. or wh.t drove them to It.
