In
; This Republicans were not re
pudiated at the general election
as most Democrats wish to think,
according to J. Henry. Helser,
Portland investment .manager. .
Speaking last night to: the
firm's annual invitational din
ner in 4he Jackson hotel, .Helser
stated that the election results
show the "end of a strong effort
of a dying age to reinstate itself,
even ' though such liberals as
Averfll Harriman, Paul Douglas
and several others were success
ful", ;. ;
Predicts Realignment ': i: i
Terming the present and fu
ture; "The New Era," his topic
titled the investment manager
predicted a 'complete new. re
alignment of political . parties
within the next five to 10 years."
He cited as the basis, wealth and
property increases, which fhave
eliminated the so-called class
lines." In supoort of his thesis,
he pointed to the success of sav
ings .and loan banking, the sav
in p method used by the laborer. '
"The ; revolt of the: middle
classes will 'become increasinslv
strong,": he continued. "As s3
encouraging economic sign, 1953
was the best year! we ever had."
He added that although there
was a slight recession in 1954,
employment was at an all-time
high;' due to an increased population,-

Seos Revived Confidence
Helser predicted a "period of
reviving ; confidence - after V the
election, and cited such., indus
trial revolts as that' within the
Montgomery Ward, company
where "confidence in the future
is forcing a change in manage
ment." In predicting , "increas
ingly high dividends for 1955,"
sales, up by 4 per cent last week,
"This shows that the . great
laboring force is not worried
about the future when, they con
tinue purchase of ' consumer
goods."-- :l:--'i v" 'i. '

He expressed no fear of the
present: international situation
between Russia and the western
powers. He compared the bal
ance of power to that m exist
ence during the period of 1872
to, 1914. ..
"Russia will be unwilling to
start a third World War because
it. is surrounded by American
airfields which could heavily
damage Russia In the first six
months of a war," he said.
.The Communists have no war
interests for three basic reasons,
he said, lack of adequate trans
portation," lack of adequate oil
deposits, and the atom bomb
threat: y .-f .

at the banquet was Walter May

son, Hammill and company, New

analyst and former president of
the Association of. Stock Ex

Future," stressing the import

Depression Reasons . ' ' .
, He gave reasons for the dec
pressions of 1929 and 1937; the
former caused by overspecula
tibn. and the second by "unwise
government action."
-Maynard called America the
most ) i thoroughly capitalistic
society that the world has even
seen,' making the solidest pos
sible background for ownership
of common stock." He cited as
factors, making the American
economy stable as the gradual
learning of : the technique of
monetary management, and priv
ate industry's "counter-cyclical
activiey," such as General Motors
,$1,000,000,000 plant expansion
this year. He also stated, that one
of the "greatest counter-recession
weapons lies in tax reductions."
Seas. Population Increase
He forecast that technological
advancements would continue at
a fast' rate and that the popula
tion increase during the next 10
years would require better labor
saving devices.
, Good : investments, according
to Maynard, are the building in
dustry and closely allied busi
ness under .the general term of
;rdo lt yourself." He predicted
the! automobile industry would
I tip: its current production of 6.1
million to 6.5 million next year.
He concluded, "America's fu
ture is- a brilliant one." - ; I

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

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. Main Political Com
mittee began its third day of de
bate today on President Eisen
hower's, "atoms for peace" plan
with Russia on notice it would
enjoy no veto if it decides to
join the plan. ::, :
Sweden, Cuba, Pakistan , and
Peru were scheduled to make
their , views -known today. ;!
Soviet Delegate .Andrei " Y.
Vishinsky raised the veto issue
yesterday when he asked U. S.
Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge
Jr. when the International atom
ic energy agency .jto be set up
would be responsible to the
General Assembly as well as the
Security Council.
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.
