URGES NEW TREATMENT
FOR MENTAL DEFECTIVES
Dr. W. S. Cornell Advises Measure of
Liberty for Higher Grade of
Fceblc-Minded Persons
A system of petmanent probation wheiehy
lilgh-graile feeble-minded persons would be
at llbe: ty to cam their living and go about
unmolested as long as they behaved them
selves was advocated by V)r. Walter S.
Cornell, director nf school medical Inspec
tion, who lectured In the laboratory of
hygiene this afternoon at the University of
Pennsylvania on "Mental Deficiency."
"Such a system would save an Immense
amount of money to tho State," said Doctor
Cornoll, "compaied with the picsent hap
hazard system of arresting such unfortu
nates, holding them In police stations, giving
them a trial, locking them up In Jail for a
long or short period and then turning them
loose on the community to repeat their
offenses.
"The cause of feeblc-nilndedlless in the
great majority of cases Is heiedlty. Par
ental nlcohollsm or even tuberculosis will
produce feeble-mlndedness. In tho preced
ing centuries war and pestilence nnd the
oppression of the poor by thu rich mid
powerful eliminated most of the weaklings
of the community. Hut today by reason
of human sentiment, unguarded by wise
restraint, the feeble-minded aro reproducing
themselves in tremendous numbers."

DIVERGENT VIEWS
l OF PATRIOTISM AIRED
Judge Crane Against Overdoing
It E. J. Cattell Says Time
for Action Is Here
"Beware of ovcrpatrlotlsm I"
"Tho time has come to ncll"
Two prominent Philadelphians simul
taneously gavo this diverging ndvlco today
to two different nudlcnces In two rooms nt
the Hotel Adelplila not forty feet npart.
The first speaker wns Judgo Utley K. Crnnc,
of the Municipal Court, addressing tho
Ocean City Yneht Club luncheon audience
In tho gold room : the second was 13. J,
Cattell, city statistician, before tho Jovlnn
Klectrlcal League. In the green room. Both
spoke on "Patriotism,"
"All this seething excitement for war. In
my belief, Is propaganda fostered by n press
association, the munition manufacturers and
the Army and Navy League," said Judge
Crane. "I nm In sympathy with the pre
paredness movement, but I sec no cause
for great excitement. There Is nn oc
casion to bo unduly disturbed. Wo should
be reluctnnt to criticize nnd zealous to aid,
and we should lie ready to uphold the hands
of the national Administration when the
prestige of tho Stnrs vmd Stripes Is nt
stake. But we should beware nf over
patriotism. We aro In no Immbicnt dnnger.
"Patriotism Is a much-misunderstood
word, generally associated with war. Sing
ing patriotic songs and waving flags have
no more to do with patriotism than church
pews nnd cushions have to do with r"'1"'"
Inventors, physicians, jurors nnd taxpay
im 'tp as great patrlotn as aro soldiers.
"We are face to faco with a sennit c '
and must consider the duty we owe our
country If we do enter the war It will iu
not for profit. We should have tho courage
to bo the last to call for armnmenl and
tho first to call for arbitration. P,eaco can
be In ought only by representative govern
ment. In this It would be fitting that the
Fulled States take the lead."
Mr, Cattell defined patriotism as "not t"
die for your country, but to shoot the other
fp'low and make him die for Ills country
"We might to live for our cuntry." lie
said. "There has been much 'lip service'
and talk. The day for that has passed
The time for action has come German
Chancellors make their own moral law.
America Is today the liopo of the world."
