WORKER’S SEXUAL BEHAVIOR The sexual behavior of the working person is generally healthier than that of people higher up the social ladder. Ea rher findings of social phychi atrists to this effect have now been supported statistically in the much-publicized (and mu ch misinterpreted) Kinsey Re port, Sexual Behavior »n the Human Male. Professor Kinsey found that while the main sexual outlet of workers is intercourse with a member of the oppisite sex, middle class people rely much more heavily an less satisfact ory outlets, such as mastur bation. petting, etc. Even af ter marriage, masturbation continues to provide a major outlet for middle class hus bands. Perversions and extre mes of sexual behavior, it se ems, are much more prevalent in the middle class. The general pattern in the same in women (see the forth comming Kinsey volumn on the female). A much larger percentage of middle class wo men do not achieve orgasm or (climax) in intercourse; they tend to be more frigid and em otionally “cold” than working women. The total sexual “behavior of 'workers indicates greater war mth and spontaneity. WARNING—. This analvs»s is not an attempt to idealize the American worker. Often people whose work br ings them into contact with workers become disgusted with “backward” attitudes that they sometimes encounter. This article attempts to ap praise some basic behavior pat terns in the American worker, which may contrast sharply with his expressed attitudes. The worker’s fundamental be havior may be in advance of these stated ideas.

" ' IN THE INTEREST OF TRAFFIC SAFETY Wiring Is Heart of Model Kitchen; How It Can Cut Costs in Any Home i By Jane Baird National Adequate Wiring Bureau j Pictured is a model kitchen, very pleasing to the eye—but what really makes its perfection possible can’t be seen. It has hid den charms — electrical wiring that meets all standards of adequacy, insuring the maximum in efficient and economical op eration of lights and appliances. Whether you plan to build or . modernize—no matter how mod i est the scale—your choice of wir > ing is of utmost importance. Adequate wiring costs little more ; than ordinary wiring, and in the end yields substantial savings. Costly Changes Averted For instance, certain heavy duty appliances, such as the elec tric range, dishwasher-food waste i disposer and home freezer, re ' quire individual circuits. These ' circuits should be added at the same time that other kitchen wiring is being done, even though you do not plan to buy all of these appliances immediately. . Thus, no costly ripping open cJ walls, ceilings or flooring when you decide later on to expand , your kitchen’s electrical equip ment. Model Wiring Highlighted The diagram above is a wiring layout that highlights the con venience factors of the model kitchen. For example, its central ceiling light has 'two switches. One is near the entrance to the dining room, on the right, and the other is near the back door next to the refrigerator, on the ' left. Of particular interest is the placement of a duplex conve [ nience outlet, at elbow height, near each work surface for plug i. ging in the toaster, coffee-maker, I food mixer, roaster, etc. One is * Here is just the thing that you need to eliminate that pro blem of which hat to wear.

Additional Savings Possible The savings already mentioned are not the only ones. When wir ing meets engineered standards in size and number of circuits, costly voltage drop is avoided. A voltage (electrical pressure) slump of 10 per cent is common when wiring is inadequate. It can dim the lights by as much as 31 per cent and cut the efficiency of the electrical heating ap pliances 20.1 per cent. Only a limited number of appliances can be operated at the same time.

WDL Offers To File Brief In Test Of Taft-Hartley Affidavits New York City—(WDL1— The Workers Defense League has written Arthur Goldberg, chief CIO attorney, offering to file an amicus brief when the L nited Steel workers carries to ‘the U.S. Supreme Court its petition challenging constitu tionality of the Taft-Hartley non-Communist affidavits. The petition, in connection with the Inland Steel case, as filed by Philip Murray, wthe Union’s president, in Chicago, June 10. (Continued from Page 1) STATE OF THE NATION ublicians and Democrats alike have long been saying kind words in favor of housing leg ilation, Federal aid, education, wider coverage for social sec urity and enlarged benefits to meet inflation prices, and at least a beginning toward bet ter guarantees of constitution al civil rights. But the way things now are going in Congress, it will be all talk and no action at this session. * * For many months it has been the congressman who were foremost in attacking the Administration for not having a “consistent” foreign policy and sticking to it. Today it is the congressmen who at this stage are doing the most to prove to the rest of the world that the United States cannot pursue a consistent for eign policy— congressmen | who in the winter assure Eur ■ ope that a full bodied Marshall | Plann approved and then in th spring hack that assurance to pieces. Today, it is the Congresmen who at this stage are advising the world that they are getting : ready to see that the United States pursues an isolationist economic policy with one hand and an internationalist polit ical nolicy with the other. Both parties of course, are momentarily in the "grin of preconvention politics and pol 1 itical maneuvering. On two paramount matters . —cutting ERP and crippling the Reciprocal Trade Agree ments Act—the Republician house has acted, in the judge ■ ment of many, against its own best interest of the country.

Embree, Pres ident of the Julius Rosenwald Fund until its termination June 30. has been elected President of the The Liberian Founda tion, it was announced last night in New York City by Edward R. Stettinius, Jr.. Chairman of the Board of The Liberia Company. The Foundation, whose lead ership Dr. Embree has already assumed. will assist in the ad vancement of health, welta’-f and education programs in the West African Republic of Liberia. The Liberian Foundation was set up last fall •in conjunc-. tion ith The Liberia Company, i a joint American-Liberian o' - j ganization which is developing I both the human and natural re sources of Liberia. Ten -percent . of the stock of The Liberia Company has been given to the Foundation as its initial grant. In accepting this new post, Dr. Embree stated: “The most important roblern in the world today is to work out mutually beneficial rela tionships among the varions peoples of tbe earth, .America needs the iron and diamonds and agricultural products of Africa, and the African people need medicine, education, an I modern technology. Starting in Liberia, the only free re public in the African continent e hope to demonstrate a new pattern of mutual helpfulness. The efforts of the Liberian Foundation will be centered on public health, cooperation with the government in build ing .a system of schools thru out the country, and tbe de velopment of a higher Stand ard of living through native crafts and modern agrculture in collaboration with The Li beria Company.” Dr. Embree visited Liberia this spring with Mr. Stettin ius and talked with President William V. S. Tumati and oth er Liberian officials, who gave him assurances of full cooper ation. Dr. Embree will be as sisted by- a staff of experienced Americans ai?d Liberians, and expects to visit Liberia again soon. As President of the Julius Rosenwald Fund, Dr. Embree directed programs to better race relations and to ensure equal rights and opportunities for all Americans. He was for ten years a Director and Vice President of the Rockefeller Foundation, working in the fields of education and public ehalth in China, Japan, the Pacific Islands, and eastern Europe. Dr. Embree is Chairman of the Commission on Human Relations of the City of Chi cago, one of the organizers and Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Roosevelt College of Chicago, and an organiaer i of the American Council on Race Relations and the Bureau for Intercultural Education. HARRIMEN SEES EMPHASIS SHIFTING TOWARD PEACE By Voleny, D. Hurd Staff Correspondent of The Christian Science Monitor Paris—The present political atmosphere of the world is one of “cold peace”, in the person al estimate of Averill Harri man, roving ambassador for the Marhall Plan. With this term Mr. Harr’ man describes the current Sov iet withdrawal of pressure at key points in Europe and the shift of forld thinking to a somewhat more positive em phasis on peace. In this period, in which both “peace” and propaganda of fensives mark the general pat tern, Paris is disturbed "by con flicting views and today finds a common denominator in the uneasy attitude of “wait and see.” Disturbing factors The following factors, in in formed Frenchhh opinion, con tribute to the seeming confu sion of what Mr. Haarriman terms an atmosphere of “cold peace.” 1. New concern about the position of the United States resulting from efforts by the Flouse of Representatives to cut ERP funds by 25 percent. Europe is committed to a four year agreement, yet only a one-year commitment has been taken by the United States, and now, almost before goods actually start rolling, the House shows a tendency t-> make heavy cuts. 2. The statement by Admir al Louis E. Denfeld, United States Chief of Naval Opera tions, given before a House Naval Appropriations Subcom mittee. This statement was re ceived here as stating that tthe United States Mediterranean Fleet is there primarily to ev avuate United States troops in Germany and Trieste and American missions in Turkey and Greece “in case of emer gency. i (French diplomatic circles apparently have underplayed the part of Admiral Denfeld’s statement which lists as one of the United States Mediterran ean Fleet’s missions “a show of force” to deter any nation from possible hostile action.) 3. The campaign by Quai d'Orsav to have the London conference proposals on west ern Germany accepted. The chief theme is that the British and Americans j'ieldeed as much as the French in arriv ing at the current agreement. Hhis is an effort to show that the French Government has not been outflanked, since the agreement reaches Paris at a time when Foreign Minister Georges Bidault, if not Pre mier Robert Schuman’s Gov ernment might fall if the pro posals proved unacceptable. 4. The Russian decision to scale down Finnish repara tions. The more clam observ ers see a clean-cut Moscow victory in the House of Rep resentatives’ fund slashing. As Mr. Rarriman told reporters, upon arriving for his new work here : "“I can only interpret the recent moves ’by Moscow, such as the Kremlin's ‘peace offen sive’ a couple of weeks ago, as indicating they believe the ECA (Economic Cooperation Administration), is proving effective and strengthening the position of the western ’European nations.” NEWS SERVICE Law Journal Editorial Flays Ruling Favoring Jimcrow Pool Newark, N.

Dr. Embree’s writings cover a wide field of education and anthropology. Among his best known books are “Brown Americans”, “13 Against the Odds", “Indans of the Amer icas”, and studies of education in Java, Samoa, Haiti, and the American South. His home is in Chicago.
