Save on These Fashion-Exciting Coats tor AN Y; Season . . . Rain or shine, that give warmth, as well as good looks. FOR ONLY Selection of Sizes, Styles, Fabrics & We Also Have a Large Selection of Other 4-SEASON ,COATS AT REGULAR PRICE SCIENCE AT WORK New York (U.FD You can! take the measure of a. man- by his voice alone, but even in this day of a highly advanced science "poets are better judges of, the elusive products of the larynx than many of us who claim the scientific approach." . : So complains Dr. Paul J. Moses, assistant clinical profes sor - of otolaryngology of Stan ford' Univeristy's school of med icine. He has devised a system of voice analysis with which he has found out as much about particular men and women as did greatly respected, psychological tests. . " He does it by. measuring the "acoustic dimensions," or the five R's" respiration (while speak ing), range; registers, resonance and rhythm. To these measure ments he adds measurements of melody, intensity, speed, accents and emphasis. Also he listens carefully to pathos, mannerism, exactness and pauses between words. No brief description of these measurements can do justice to their subtleties and exactitudes. It is better to suggest the ideas behind the measurements. As for respiration, Moses points out that the volume of breathing "varies with activities, circum stances, and emotional states. Range and Register "It 'is extremely sensitive, and in addition, can ' be con trolled at will," he added. "Therefore volume og breath ing is an excellent means of ex pressing emotional symbols. Thus, breathing becomes more than usually shallow in fatigue and in hopelessness." "Range is the language of emotions, as against articulation, the language of ideas . . . One of "the known symptoms of hys teria is illogical emotional im pact in speaking or emotions ex pressed by the voice that are contrary to the content." By "register," he neans "a physical acoustic event which re sults from an energetic change within the muscular co-ordination of the vocal chords.". There is a head or nasal register, and a chest register. In speaking, these registers are "mixed," and people who habitually use one or the other, betray secrets of their unconscious minds which even they do not know. The voice has built-in resona tors, and one is the nose. The nasal mucous membranes are af fected, "by. many emotions" which, in turn, act upon reson ance. : v.. : : . 't ' Pathos Is Vogue ! "A person who tries to be an ascetic and has stormy conflicts does not talk with the voice of an ascetic. The nose becomes"a truer witness to our real emo- MQRE TO All Water Repellent, With Satin, Taf fete or Milium Linings j tional situations than our words or our intentions." , ' Rhythm is "one of the most sensitive dimensions. Its changes are audible and measii-rahl under different emotions:: and each individual has his own' in dividual rhythm . ; V . .', "Voices . without melody ; is truly meaningless i . . Unless .the speaker has unusual restraint and .self control, his moods will be mirrored in his melody.", y '-u: But . pathos is a - .something which, though - clearlv distin guishable by the trained ear and even perceived by the untrained ear, has as vet defied quantita tive analysis .v. This 'something that expresses in the voice what a person is in his own- estima tion; and in mine and "yours, is pathos." r ' :: :..". Dr. Moses described his tech niques in a book,' "The Voice of,i Neurosis" (Grune and Stratton, New YorkJ intended especially for , the - psychiatrist and the laryngologist because the train ing of neither includes enoueh of the science of the other. He was aiming at the singing teach er, too, because his "crucial prob of emotional disturbrances. on lems" are related to "the effect the voice." U. N.' Committee Continues Debate On Atoms for Peace United Nations. N. Y. (U.R) The U.N.

To Report To Council s "Previously," he said, "it had been expressly noted that the agency was to report to the Se curity Council" in which the "big five" has veto power. Lodge explained the agency itself would work out its own relationship with the United Na tions but he added, "We may perhaps be forgiven for hoping and for expecting that it. will not be a relationship in which the Security Council veto para lyzes the agency.
