Ontario.—The processes by which Dr A A Brill New York psychiatrist, concluded that Abra ham Lincoln was a dual personality who rigidly controlled his baser na-: ture, were disputed by Dr. J. L. Mo- j reno of New York at a joint session of the American Psychiatrist and Psychoanalytic association Dr. Moreno challenged Dr Brill's scientific procedure in concluding that Lincoln was a “schizoid manic” type, given to humor of an "ob scene * character. The psychoanalyt ic method. Dr. Moreno maintained, has not been developed sufficiently to warrant its use in an analysis of Lincoln Not only has no expert psychia- j trist first hand knowledge of Lin-, coin. Dr. Moreno said, but it is er roneous to base a study of the man on atones told about him by -con temporaries who might have hadi “all sorts of motives for telling them.” ur. Moreno s criticism louoweti Dr. Brill's delivery of a paper, “Abraham Lincoln as a Humorist." The paper aroused opposition from Dr. Edward E. Hicks, prominent Brooklyn psychiatrist, when an ex cerpt appeared in the program of the association last month Dr. Hicks declared Dr. Brill s state ment ‘•insulting." Schizoid is taken from the Greek word meaning to split, and the ex pression as applied to Lincoln does not mean insanity. Dr. Brill con cluded that Lincoln had a schizoid, or Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde per sonality, from Lincoln’s reputed ten dency to tell off-coloi stories. Dr. Brill traced ths split-person ality to Lincoln’s parents; a father who was “untutored, roving and un stable, who treated him brutally,” and a mother who was “affectionate, cheerful, fine, from whom Lincoln claimed to have inherited his pow er of analysis, his logic, his mental activity and ambition.’ "Those who study the deeper re cesses of the mind,” Dr. Brill said, “will readily understand the nature of this emotional surging. What is very peculiar about Lin coln’s stories and jokes, his own and those hs appropriated from others is the fact that many, if not most are- aggressive or algolanic nature, treating of pain, suffering and death and that a great many of them were so frankly sexual, as to be classed a3 obscene." Lincoln, Dr. Brill concluded, suf fered from depressive psychosis, with periods of emotional depression followed often by phases of elation. His incessant story telling and fluent wit were examples of his •motional elation School Heads Facing Problem In Budgets • COtmuCKD eKOil PAGE ON'K' 110 pupils in attendance with one' »xtra teacher for every 35 addition-j il pupils.

For! he teachers as a whole the cut will >e around 14 or 15 percent.

Year after year the present 190 teacher will receive $81 Where lie would have received $100 under .he former .scale. » cut of 19 pec ;eni. Keep Fines Each county, Supt. Griggs says : will be permitted to keep court fines! »nd forfeitures and dog tax, the! money to be used for repairs to! buildings and equipments and for insurance payments. There will be no county school: tax for operating purposes but there j will be a tax to take care of present, indebtedness, or for what it known in the budget as debt se.rvice. Special districts with eight months of school will continue to pay for the extra two months as they have heretofore. The major change in the school plan is that the state sup ports all schools for six months from other sources than property tax with the exception of 5 cents per $100 valuation. Teaching l.oad. The lopping off of at least seven teachers in the county schools and five-in the city schools will prove mofe of a problem than is evident at first as school enrollment next year will naturally be larger than it was during the year just closed. There were 947 more pupils in the county schools last year than dur ing the previous year. There will be that many more new pupils this year but with even less teachers than last year. For three years the total school enrollment in the city and county schools has increased at least 1.000 pupils per year. With a thousand extra pupils next year it will be necessary to instruct them with e dozen less teachers than last year. Police Officer Is Shot At Forest City ‘CONTINUED f'ROM PAUE ONE.)

Mix Baseball And Beer In Mexico Los Angeles.—The Nogales club of the Arizona-Texas league is m the cellar, but in spite of its un-! fortunate position in the standings it boasts, that it is the only club in organized baseball in Mexico.

The games at Nogales are policed by Mexican soldiers instead of po lice, as Is the cast at most parks in the United States. Foam For Fans. Buckets of beer are passed through the stands during the pro gress of the games—a sight not seen in a ball park in the United States. The Nogales fans expect their team to pick up and become a fac tor in the league race. It is Nog Hies' first season in organized ball, and the team still is passing through the experimental stage. Dick Cox, former major leaguer, Is the man ager. Baseball is said to have practical ly driven bull fighting out of the ring in Sonora. There isn't room enough for the two: so for a time at least baseball is the winner. The people come to the games from far and near. In addition to the crowds from the two Nogales, both fair-sized cities, the penos ride in on their burros to take their place in the stands.
