Answer: Practically speaking, yes. Any normal person would like to be free to do as he pleases, but only someone who dares—and has learned how—to “stand on his own feet" prefers being free to being taken care of. Recent studies of the Germans, for example, seem to show that a majority of them would rather have a government that will give them financial security than one which affords such luxuries as freedom of speech and the press. We must not forget that our devfl- tion to freedom is by no means shared by all mankind. May emotional disturbances make your skin itch? Answer: Yes, writes Dr. W. R. Huber, Texas dermatologist. A con dition known as “local neuroder matitis,” which may cause certain areas of the skin to become rough ened and to itch intolerably, is due to chronic emotional disturbances which are expressed through the Can two unconscious minds' make contact? Answer: There is good reason to think so, though l (enow no positive proof. For instance, as Dr. Edmund Bergler points out, the “attraction” that makes people marry may in volve quite different qualities from those that are consciously recog nized by either partner—a man who at heart feels he needs to be scolded may marry a “nagger” with out either of them realizing what they “saw in each other.” It may be through acts and gestures which you don't consciously notice that your unconscious mind knows what is going /on in someone else’s.

KEEPING HEALTHY Children Who Stutter Need Training By Dr. James W. Barton A lthough physicians and others interested in speech cor- rection and the treatment of speech disorders have been trying for years to tell parents and the public that stuttering is a nervous dis order, not a speech defect, there are still many parents who continue to believe that their youngster will gradually “grow out of it.” It is true that some children do over come stuttering once ' they begin .school or playing and mixing with ether children, but unfortunately this often does not happen and par ents should consult their physician about correcting stuttering before It Is too late. I Stuttering is not a sign of back wardness. The knowledge that stut tering is seldom due to any defect of mouth or throat but simply to nervousness or self-consciousness should make its cure less difficult. Every large city (and some small ones, too) has schools for speech correction. Their methods encour age the child to speak or read in front of others, use the telephone, mix with others, take part in plays. attend social gatherings—the under* lying aim being to render him less self-conscious. It might be well to repeat some rules for preventing and helping stuttering from an article by Miss Ruth Lewis, Sick Children's Hos pital, Toronto, which appeared in HEALTH some years ago. 1. Handle your child’s emotional distresses wisely. Look for the cause of his emotional strain in your own life and conduct (over* protection). \ 2. Don’t encourage a child to talk too early if he has the slightest difficulty in talking, especially an only child. 3. If the child naturally develops left-handedness, do not attempt to make him right-handed, as was done when you went to schc^L 4. Seek advice early. Do not com placently rest in the chance of the child growing out of stuttering— the danger of his growing into it is just as great Because stuttering may cause an inferiority complex it should bo corrected early.

WNU Correspondent REA Appropriations *PHE RURAL electrification ad- ^ ministration has allocated $18,- 831,000 to 61 borrowers for the rural telephone program involving 21,- 408 miles of line and 74,585 sub scribers in the first year of Its operation. This allocation was made from a total of 609 applications amounting to $60,470,956. The state of Texas leads in actual allocation of loans with seven borrowers, or new tele phone co-ops, with $4,704,000 for 6,869 miles of line and 15,461 sub scribers. Minnesota comes second, Louisiana third. New Mexico fourth, then comes Iowa, Indiana, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, Utah and Alabama in the order named. . The loan allocations have been made to 20 newly formed farmer cooperatives and to 41 commercial companies. As was pointed out in this column last week, work of the rural telephone program will be hampered and cut back consider ably during the coming year due to lack of money and the scarcity of essential materials. For instance approximately $30,000,000 is avail able for 1951 fiscal year, but there will be only about $14,000,000 for 1952. If you do not have telephone service on your farm write to the rural electrification administration, department of agriculture, Wash ington, D.C., and ask for their book let “A Telephone for Your Farm.” Answers to all questions are in cluded. • • • House Throws Out Bill You can lobby and high pressure a small group of men much easier than you can a 50-member house appropriations committee. That is the answer to the backward step taken by that house committee when by a coalition vote of 31 to 18 ^he committee overrode its chairman. Rep. Clarence Cannon of Missouri, and threw the single package appropriation bill into the ash can. As a result the house will go back to the 50-year-old obsolete methods of making up appropria tions for the government expenses in 11 separate measures, consider ed by 11 separate sub-committees, passed at separate times which pre vents any member from knowing what expenses of government will be until the final eleventh bill is passed. Another reason for the retrogres sive step was the jealousy for pow er, for under the single package appropriation bill the chairmanships for these 11 subcommittees were eliminated, and the chances for log rolling and “back-scratching” In the whole committee are much less than in the smaller sub-commit tees. This is the second reorganiza tion plan in the house which has been discarded at this session, the first having been restoring auto-' cratic and dictatorial power in the rules committee wherein eight men on that committee can, by their opposition, prevent any bill from coming to a vote on the floor of the house. • • • Washington Silhouettes Washington Silhonettes — Land around the beautiful Jefferson me morial located on the tidal basin has sunk approximately 18 inches .... With an influx of some 300,000 new war workers coming into the city, some agencies such as the patent office, the REA and other smaller agencies may be moved to other cities for the duration as was the case during World War II —and plans are being made for dispersal of some other important agencies to points within a radius of 20 miles of Washington, which means construction of new build ings^ .... Another angle to this dispersal is the possible bombing of the nation’s capital ....

In the case of the Cocker, reasons for this popularity are not difficult to find. Lovable and friendly, they are perhaps the best pets and companions one can ^£jxd in all dogdom. As a child’s pet, the Cocker outranks all other dogs. It is disturbing to most hunt ers that the Cocker, formerly a good hunting animal, has been al lowed to degenerate into a lap-dog. There are plenty hunting-strain Cockers and the gunner who finds one is fortunate, indeed. Too fre quently, the Cocker will be found lacking the nose and bird-sense that must go into the making of a good hunting dog—but if one finds a specimen of the real hunting-strain Cocker, he will have a jewel in the field. / This is true because this strain | is wide-awake, smart; short and stoAcy and yet possessed of suffi cient strength to retrieve even a Canada goose. The dog’s desire to please its master is another of the admirable traits which make it so universally loved. However, the Cocker is a sensitive little fellow and must be handled accordingly. T&e Cockers stand at th£ bot tom on the size list of hunting dogs, seldom exceeding 28 pounds in weight. He hunts his game with a zest that is a joy to behold, and hunts carefully throug all mflnner Of cover. He keeps his nose close to the ground and he really uses it! While he covers a lot of ground in a hurry, he is a natural at quartering back and forth in front of a gun, so that he rarely flushes birds out of range of the gun. The Cocker, like most spaniels, flushes his birds rather than point them, and the speed of his wagging tail is an unfailing signal of how close he is to the birds. Just before he flushes the birds, his tail is moving so fast that it is virtually a blur. Watch that sign, and you’ll seldom be flustered when the busy little dog sends the covey or single boom ing into the air.

To those who believe that the feral house cat survives solely on young game and songbirds, the re sults of this study will come as a ' surprise. In per cent of volume, the aggregate last meal of these de ceased pussies was comprised of 38.1 per cent mice, 25.6 per cent rabbit, 9 per cent cotton rat, 6.9 per cent table scraps, 2.7 per cent terra pin, 2.4 per cent rat, 2.4 per cent pig, 1.9 per cent grasshopper, 1,8 per cent unidentified meat, and 1.5 per cent chicken. No songbirds were found and, of course, some of the material, par ticularly the pig, was carrion. All of the quail, parts of three birds, came from a single cat shot in the act of stalking young quail. Rats and mice made up *49.5 per cent of the total diet. Korschgen (conductor of the study) _said that this is not enough evidence to form the basis of policy on house cats but that the high percentage of rodents and ab sence of songbirds give food for thought. Mice compete heavily with quail for food and rats are serious quail predators. AAA Lean Days Here , Now are really* the lean days for wildlife. s February and March still can produce the kind of blizzardy, chill ing weather that takes heavy toll among bird and animal life. It is now that natural food is scarcest and the denizens of the woods are hard-pressed to get enough to live on. Sportsmen and conservationists can aid wildlife and give Mother Nature a mighty big hand by pro viding feeding stations where na tural foodstuffs have disappeared, or where ice or snow covers vege tation. Once feeding stations are estab lished, however, it should be re membered that they should be filled regularly. This should be done be cause many wildlife species will keep returning to the same spot, once they have been accustomed to feeding there. AAA Waterfowl Longevity According to the U.S. fish and wildlife service, waterfowl live much longer than upland game birds. In captivity, the service reports. European geese and swans have lived 70 or. 80 years, and ducks from 15 to 40 years. Wild ducks, geese and swans do not live so long, but wild, banded ducks have been reported as old as 18 years, and geese and swans at least 20.
