Nightmare Gifts Result of
Repressed Hostile Impulse
Chicago, Dec. 21. (.if) There's a reason why people give
those "nightmare" neckties for. Christmas.
It's the same reason, a psychological one, which impels friends
or relatives to give you caramels when they know they'll
plague your false teeth, or prompts homely girls to give par
ticularly nauseous perfumes to beauties.
Dr. Robert N. McMurry, psy
chologist on the staff of the Chi
cago Central Y. M. C. A. col
lege, said today that "uncon
scious hostile impulses" were
partly to blame for the giving of
gifts not always appreciated.
"All too often," he explained,
"the object of respect, admira
tion and even love is also the
object of envy, rivalry, fear and
hotred. The only difference is
that the respect, admiration and
love are conscious, while the
less admirable sentiments, being
regarded as ignoble, have been
repressed, put out of mind,
buried in the limbo of the un
conscious. "But these hostile, aggressive
impulses, although no longer
conscious, have 'not ceased to
strive for satisfaction. Being de
nied direct expression, they
seek a round-about satisfaction.
The result is a compromise. T he
object of these uncharitable
! sentiments is not attacked open
ly the individual's conscience
will not permit this.
"Instead, at Christmas time or
at a birthday or wedding, a gift
ir chosen, which, while super
ficially the expression of very
j noble sentiments, contrives at
! the same time to attack, injure
or frustrate the recipient."
However, Dr. McMurry said,
no one should get peeved about
such gifts because actually the
giver is not conscious of the mo
tivating subconscious impulses
and neither is the recipient.

Amsterdam, Dec. 21. W)

eign military planes had been
sighted over Veluwe in the bor

and they were chased by Neth
erlands air patrols.

Herbert F. Lieflandcr, 36, Ger
man sailor from Danzig, in
municipal court on a charge of
illegal entry into the United
States, told Judge John L. Mc
Nelis:
"If I'm sent back to Danzig,
I'll find some way to come back
here. I d rather die than go
back. You can't talk to your
best friend without fear of being
thrown into a concentration
camp."
Lleflander will be taken to
New York for a hearing before
Immigration authorities.
Weather, except in the cases
of some species of ducks and
geese, has nothing to do with
the migration of birds to the
south each year. Instinct, it is
conceded, la the cause of the
migration.
