STOMACHS PRODUCE EMOTIONAL STATES Declares Noted Doctor Many Of World's Most Brilliant Men Were Inluenced By Intestinal Disorders Cleveland, 0. (ACP)-"Genius doubt less, like an army, travels on its stomach, but what a stomach!" Taking a side glance at "the influence of the stomach on the human mind," Dr. T. Wingate Todd, atanomist at Western Reserve University's school of medicine last week took stock of the results of his nearly 12 years of research on the hu man stomach. He chose Samuel Johnson as a good ex ample, stating that "there is no doubt at all of Johnson's chronic indigestion and the resultant cantakerous disposition with which there goes a brilliance of imagery and creative thought. "Benedick's 'quick wit and queasy stom ach' (in Shakespeare's 'Much Ado About Nothing') reminds us of the indebtedness of both literature and science to indi gestion. "Would Darwin have framed the theory of evolution had it not been for the imag ery created by his chronic indigestion? "Would Conrad have written his stories had the facts of his experience not been sharpened and amplified by nervous dys pepsia? l"How much of Poe's tales of mystery and imagination were due to indigestion, and how much to alcohol ?"

In Address Before Florence Rotar Orucial Times In This S People M Extracts from address by J. Rion McKissick before the Florence Ro tary Club at their meeting last Tues day. Not long ago this question was put to Bernard M. Baruch, a native South Caro linijan who was one of the most trusted advisers of President Wilson and who is t now one of the foremost American fi nanciers and economists: "1-Iow do you feel about our national < debt of thirty billion dollars and the colossal sums the federal government un der the New Deal has spent and is spend- 1 ing now ?" I Mr. Baruch's answer was this: < "Although concerned about the large t sums of money which will have to be re- b paid somehow, or the obligation repudi ated, I am more deeply concerned about f the morale of our people which, if that b wvere effected, would make the lar-ge ex- I mpenditures of money of less importance. v After all, that is only money and we can make that again and pay off our debts, but, if we lose our character or our ability I to fend for ourselves, there is nothing left. I feel this very strongly." r As an illustration of the sort of morale w which this nation needs, Mr. Baruch r pointed to the spirit displayed by South Carolinians in the great crises of our his tory. a What was that spirit? Mr. McKissick s asked. The question was answered by por- c trayal of the unconquerable determination courage and morale of the people of South Carolina in the War of the Revo lution, the \Var for Southern Indepen- S dence, the Reconstruction Era, and the World War. "In the three greatest crises through lC which South Carolina has passed, our own people could not look to the federal Ii government for relief," the speaker as serted." "During the Var of the Revolution q South Carolina contributed more means b ported that 800 experiments on students 1 had revealed that emotional states reduce 1 the stomach's gastric waves of contrac tion and cause prolonged ciusuie ui i ri outlet. f; a R.

"At the end of the War for Southern ndependence our state had lost five hun Ired million dollars worth of property, t me hundred and twenty-two million in he value of farm property and had suf ered immeasurable loss in the death or lisability 1rom war of almost one man ut of every four able to bear arms. "During the Era of Reconstruction, vhen the federal government was im lacably hostile to our people, they could ot call upon it for relief. Their public ebt was multiplied many times by the errible combination of negroes, carpet- s aggers and scalawags who held the state c ii their grasp. Taxes were so high that s ew could pay them. The lands of num ers of them were confiscated for non ayment of taxes. The public treasury as looted by official thieves. The state overnment was virtually bankrupt. "In their long experience, South Caro nians have had ample ground for realiz ig the force of Grover Cleveland's decla ation that "while the people must sup ort the government, the government can ot support the people." In conclusion, Mr. McKissick said: "In the course of a little more than two nd a half centuries South Carolina has !en two of her principal crops-indigo nd rice-vanish altogether. The fate of tton no one can foretell. "South Carolina has passed through B iree terrible revolutions, but still lives. "If the history of the old Palmetto v tate has any message for us, it is this: "'Have faith in yourselves. Have faith a South Carolina. Have faith in Amer- s a. Have faith in God. Be of good cour ge. Look ye to the rock whence ye are ewn.' "In the darkest hours of the Palmetto tate has shone the star of the uncon uerable will of her people, who have i een equal to every emergency, who have c ever surrendered to despair, who by the race of God have brought South Caro- c na safely through disaster, defeat, and Iuin, "It is for South Carolinians to have aith that, if only we will with courage nd determination rely upon ourselves nd the God of our fathers, in every risis of the present and future South arolina will have safe deliverance, and istory will repeat itself. "The venerable Alfred Iluger said in ie constitutional convention of 1865: "'South Carolina is my mother. If I in wrong in everything else, I know I [ in right in loving South Carolina. No latter what there is to endure and to rget, let us all do our duty as becomes er children, counting it our chiefest onor to stand by her in evil report as I 'ell as in good report, honor alike to live C ith her and to die with her.' a "As wve read the story of South Caro na's past, we are bound to believe that si ve fall only to rise again', and that, v vhatever clouds may darken the horizon, I' >morrow will be better than today.' c "South Carolina ought always to re aember and to believe in the motto of the ti 'almetto State wvhiich was engraved on C ur great seal 160 years ago. n "It is for us both history and prophecy.

"Only on the theory that the country till never again have to face a crisis," e said in a recent address, "can we as ime that a government stripped of the ower to legislate in the general interest ,ill endure. To cherish such a theory is fly in the face of the recorded experi nce of this nation and all mankind." "There is not a word in the Constitu on that expressly or by implication de lares that the Constitution must be trictly interpreted by anybody," Dr. eard declared. "That is a fiction largely reated by Thomas Jefferson when he 'as trying to unhorse Hamilton, and fla rantly violated by Jefferson all through is two administrations." -U. U. 0.

Law Schools Need Funds Says Columbia Professor Dean Smith Advocates Closer As sociation Of Public And Private Law New York City (ACP)-The Colum bia University Law Schools' Dean Young B. Smith believes that law students to day are being trained to be young provin cials, and he believes that something should be done about it. In his annual report to the president of the university, unusually critical this year, Dean Smith advocated a teaching of pub lic law that should be more closely in tegrated with private law. He said: "The government, political parties and the people generally are measuring the fundamental law in an intensive effort to bring economic legislation in business, labor and agriculture within the frame work of the constitution. "Considerations of public interest of the national economy are present more and more in the adjudication of disputes which had called only for the application of the formula concerning private wrongs or obligations. The student must be led to see that more is involved than the mere evolution and application of common-law rules." Law courses also should incorporate sufficient foreign material to counteract "the tendency of law students toward smug provincialism," Dean Smith said. Study of legal problems and the solutions they have received in other countries pro motes "a healthy skepticism ih regard to the completeness and permanence of our own solutions," the report observed. To enable law schools to carry out a better job of teaching, larger funds must be made available for their budgets, Dean Smith said.

One of the real eye-openers Schnidman received was a bound copy of a speech the President had delivered on international affairs-a speech that required five days for complete delivery and a translation of which covers 724 printed pages.
