Benedict Discusses
Socialization of Child



Goodhart, March 8.—In_ the
fourth lecture of the Anna How-
ard Shaw series, titled Socializing
the Child, Dr. Ruth Benedict con-
trasted the methods of child-rear-
ing in different - societies. Some
methods, she said, train the child
for an adult environment, while
others place him in a _ separate
world until he has attained adult-
hood.

Our own culture, empioying the
latter method, forces the child to

learn to act in ways which he will!
There is a;

later have to unlearn,

complete break between the habits |

which are suitable to childhood and
those which are necessary to adult-
hood. The resulting psychological
disorganization can only be rem-
edied by supplying sufficient secur-
ity during the period of transition.

Some tribes avoid a break be-
tween the play period and, the later
period by conditioning the child to
adult behavior. In our séciety
however the child does not partici-
pate in the life and habits of the
adult community which he must
later join. He is shielded from re-
sponsibility, and from “unpleasant
facts” and is therefore subjected
to what Dr. Benedict termed “the
Santa Claus complex.” Play must
be given up, and responsibility for
which he has developed no patterns
of behavior is motivated only by
a sense of duty.

In the primitive societies where
no qualitative distinction is made

between children and adults, chil-

Students Visit Bethlehem; Expose Conditions
Causing Strike, Workers’ Resolve to Win

We spent Friday night in Beth-

“But I’m not very funny,” she

A bright idea hit us. “What

“American women grow old be-

Also they are too independent.”
We protested, but the economist

President Park
We have waited with curiosity and some fear for the day, of
announcement. When the day came and we heard’ that President
Park had agreed to continue for another year, the cheering was

long and loud. -

Perhaps the most important reason is our belief in her under-
standing of democracy. Many presidents of organizations advo-

cate democracy, but few actually practice it.

President Park is

one of the few. College Council meetings are not a hoax and the
only reason is that President Park considers the members as adults
and their opinion as important as her own.

' The heads of campus organizations can ask for her advice on

their problems.”

She will advise,

but no matter how much easier

it might be for her to decide, she will turn the question back to
the undergraduate for the final word. Largely because of Presi-
dent Park’s attitude, any individual at Bryn Mawr finds herself
forced to make her own decisions and accept the responsibilities as
well as the freedom of a democratic community. Not only has she
stood by democracy, but she has taught many of us its meaning.

There were other reasons for our cheering Friday.

Plans

begun by President Park such as the three college cooperation will
now have another year in which to become more firmly rooted be-
fore meeting the changes bound to occur when a new president

takes --over.

Yet in our joy we felt guilty. President Park had made all
her plans for next year, even to the building of a house in Maine.
What it must cost her to give up all this expected and deserved
freedom in order to assume again the task of college president we

can only imagine.

President Park since 1938-39 has had a claim to a sabbatical

leave.
of her successor an easier one.

Instead of taking time off she has stayed to make the job
Not only has she worked steadily

during the college year, but she also stayed one summer to work

in the Hudson Shore -Labor School.

. Despite all this she has ac-

cepted the presidency, and to all outward appearances has done so
gladly. That we are grateful needs hardly to be said. Although
we may feel guilty we cannot help being happy about next year.

Feeding European Populations
_ Will Aid British Victory





|To the Editor of the News:

The following article by David
Lawrence appeared in the New

York Sun recently. Perhaps it can

|

‘promising attitude being assumed.|{

|

|help those who are trying to define

itheir own position with respect to

the general and urgent question

“of food for Kurope.
“Few .things dare more difficult
to understand than the uncom-

here afid in London toward the
matter of feeding the people who

‘live in France, Holland, Belgium

and the conquered areas of Europe.

“The answer that Great Britain
does not approve, which is accepted
by so many people as sufficient
reason for turning down the
Hoover plan, is really not an an-
swer after all. For next door to
France food is being sent to Spain
to feed Gen. Franco’s people. Why
is the British blockade relaxed
there? Because it is to the diplo-
matic interests of the Byitish war
policy to do so.

“This merely means that Great
Britain does not withhold food
from the Axis-dominated areas be-
cause of a belief that the food
might fall into German hands, but
because it is not considered strateg-
ically desirable. to let the food
through the blockade at this time.
It is not a military, but a morale
problem.

“It is not surprising. that the
one man in the world who has had
a vast experience with feeding
large numbers of people in the last
war should be today the stanchest
advocate of food relief. It is more
surprising that what was _per-
mitted in the last war is not tol-
erated in this war, though every-
body knows the food sent to occu-
pied Belgium in the last war did
not reach the German military
forces or prevent the German
defeat.

“The problem is not ‘simply a
humanitarian burden of the most
stupendous sort. It is a problem
of. strategy which.may affect. the
outcome of the war _ itself.

“Would the war come to a
quicker end if peoples in the occu-
pied areas starved? Is it thought
that resistance is increased when
men are hungry, or will it happen
that the occupied peoples will find
themselves bowing to the con-
querors and giving up the instru-
ment of passive resistance which

has been so powerful in past
history?
“Mr. Hoover has’ launched a

simple plan. He would try an ex-
periment and ample _ safeguards
would be provided to prevent the
food from falling. into the hands
of the Nazis. The establishment
of soup kitchens so that food would
be consumed on the spot under the
observation of American inspectors
is itself an adequate safeguard.
“Officials of the Department of
State here properly refrained from
being a party to the approaches
which: former President Hoover
made to the German and British
governments relative to his experi-
mental plan. Mr. Hoover complied
with the statutes in that he clearly

presented the idea as an unofficial

undertaking and not in any way
sponsored by the American Gov-
ernment.

“There is no other effective way
apparently to forward the cause
of humanity than; by a direct ap-
proach to the British and German
governments. Nor -is there any
likelihood of relief for the starving

International Rights

Discussed by F ussell



Roberts Hall, Haverford, Feb-
ruary 26.—Mrs. Frances R. Fussell
of Swarthmore College discussed
the possible development of Inter-
national Law after the peace. In-
ternational Law is the basis for the
relationships between’ states, and
as long as there are two states in
the world, Interfiational Law of
some kind will exist.

Mrs. Fussell outlined five rights
of national states, the rights of ex-
istence, independence, equality,
jurisdiction, and suit, basic consid-
erations in international relation-
ships. Under the heading exist-
ence, Mrs. Fussell considered self-
defense. She left unanswered her
question of whether victorious de-
mocracies would permit the exist-
ence of dictatorship.

Independence has meant the free-
dom of the state to order its in-
ternal life, and unbridled external
sovereignty. The latter, said Mrs.
Fussell, has led to anarchy and she
predicted a curtailment. of external
sovereignty after the peace, re-
gardless of who is_ victorious.
Jurisdiction of states has been
based on territory in the past and
will continue so with a democratic
victory, but a victory of the dic-
atorships will mean personal juris-
diction based upon race. In any
case, Mrs. Fussell predicted an in-
creased jurisdiction over citizens
and property. _

There will be a greater number
of treaties, economic and political,
after the war, more direct diplo-
macy, and circulating envoys. Mrs.
Fussell foresees the duties of na-
tions increased, their rights dimin-
ished. She expects the acceptance
of the concept of total war and the
consequent breakdown of the idea
of neutrality. But methods short
of war will inevitably follow the
decline of external sovereignty.
Collective security, arbitration and
a genuine will to peace are the
three essentials if war is to be
avoided in the future.

ture. For in the event that the
submarine blockade of England
should become effective, the cry will
come to America-to find a way to
keep the sea lanes open so as to
feed the British people. From a
humanitarian standpoint, there is
‘as much reason for feeding one
population as another. .

“The outcome of the present war
does not depend on the effective-
ness of a. food blockade because
there are plenty of Sources of food
for the Nazis themselves. The
war will be won by naval and air
power combined and by the side
with the stronger civilian morale.
Hence if the peoples iri the Low
Countries and in occupied France
are given food now through Brit-
ish and American auspices they
will be potential allies when the
tide of battle has turned.” .

Mr. Heilperin
Goodhart, March 4.—“‘Boris of

7.30. Germany, he continued, is not

delivered an ultimatum. today.

Germany’s eastern drive, accord-
ing to Mr. Heilperin, is aimed at
Iraq,. whose annual oil output is

four billion tons. The acquisition
of this oil would not only make
Germany self-sufficient in fuel sup-
ply, but it would elmiinate Eng-
land’s oil supply for her eastern
Mediterranean forces. This move
would give Germany control of the
Near Fast and the Suez Canal.

Italy’s attempt to get closer to
Iraq was effectively stopped by
Greece, which gave the British time.
to prepare for an intensive Eastern
offensive.

Mr. Heilperin analyzed Hitler’s
use of negotiated conquests rather
than invasions. In his new world
order, he intends to present to the
world’a voluntarily united Europe,
and to accuse England of trying to
destroy that unity. Before the war
the trade of each of the Middle
European states was over 50 per
cent with Germany. Without this
trade they Would have collapsed
economically. “It is important to
remember,” said Mr. Heilperin,
“that Hitler’s success is due to his
vision of conquest and not to a
European Unity.” One “ofits
greatest weaknesses is that be-
cause of the treatment inflicted on
each’ member of-the Triple Alli-

,ance, the sympathy of the con-

quered toward. this movement can-
not last long.



Problem of Defense

Discussed by Mayor



Goodhart, February 28. — “The
important question to ask our-
selves, today,” declared Mr. Brantz
Mayor, one of Time’s Washington
correspondents, who spoke on Na-
tional Defense in the Common
Room, Friday evening, “is not if
we should fight, but for what are
we fighting?”

Mr. Mayor believes; that when
you are considering National De-
fense, four questions must be an-
swered: What are you defending;
what are you defending it with;
what are you defending it against
and what are you defending it for?

“‘The Lend-Lease Bill,” said Mr.
Mayor, “has no legal powers; it
is purely a psychological bill.” He
added that we have no aid to give
to Britain and very little for our-
selves. When the British evacu-
ated Dunkirk, they left practically
everything behind. We sent over
25,0000 French 75’s of World’ War
origin, but which may have helped
stall the Germans for the brief
period which. Britain needed to col-
lect her strength.

Mr. Mayor believes that. revolu-
tion and war as we think of them

‘are now dead. The power of an

individual is no longer of any im-
portance; the man with the gun
plays little part in war today. Now
when one machine-gun can rule a
city it is going to be an easy mat-
ter for the victor of-this-war to
police the world.

Mr. Mayor believes that we are
fighting against monopoly — of
money, of business, and particular-
ly -of - knowledge, for Hitler’s
method of retaining power is to
restrict knowledge.



At this point, England cannot
state her war aims because they

would be sure to conflict-with. those............

of her Allies, Mr. Mayor concluded
with his belief that America is now
“definitely in the driver’s. seat.”
We can make the statements of
what this war is all about and what
the peace terms will he like.








M. Brown of Belgian

Relief Fund to spaik



On Thursday evening, February | >

6, at 7.45, in the Common Room, |
Milton Brown, of the Belgian Re- |
lief Fund, Inc., will speak. This’
fund, along with the Norwegian |
Relief Fund, the Queen Wilhelmina |
Fund, Inc., and the Commission for |
Polish Relief, endorses the Na-
tional Committee on Food for the |
Small Democracies, whose sole pur-
pose is to inform the public of Mr.
Hoover’s plan for a solution of the
vital question of food for Europe.
The committee does not ask for
money or supplies, but only for an
“aroused public conscience.”

Mr. Brown, one of Hoover’s aides
during the last war, has lived in
Belgium ever since, and—is~-there-
fore well qualified to present Mr.
Hooveér’s plan.

Place of Morale
In Prisons Stressed

By Annandale’s Head

Common Room, February 26.—
On Wednesday evening the Gradu-
ate Association of the Department
of Social Economy presented Mr.
Sauter, head of the Annandale Re-
formatory in New Jersey. Annan-
dale, for boys from 16 to 26, is 12
years old and one of the most pro-
gressive schools of reform in. the
country. It is unwalled, unfenced,
has few devices of restraint, and
in it there is an emphasis, unique
in prisons, on individual psychol-
ogy.

The development of a morale is
the most important thing in prison
work. - To minimize temptation
men are kept busy eight hours a
day, since idleness leads to the dis-
cussion of what all the inmates
day, since idleness leads to ‘the dis-
have in common—crime. Morale
is also maintained by a system
of privileges, by which men may
become more and more trusted
until they are allowed to live in
the Honor Cottage, which has no
guard, and where the men may
come and go as they please.

The results of this free treatment
have been gratifying to Mr. Sau-
ter. Many times, when there has
been a meeting of the staff, the
men have run themselves success-
fully. Of the men released, 62 per
cent have never been rearrested, 8
per cent have been charged for mi-
nor offenses, and 30 per cent have
been sent back. It is hard to tell
how these figures compare with
those of other institutions, because.
in less progressive reformatories
no such records have been kept,
since there is not such an interest
in the permanent benefit to the
individual.

Socialization of Child |

Continued from Page One
dren are not excluded from death- |

no experience of “forbidden facts,” |
there is no prying.

Our dominance-submission ~ cul-
ture establishes a disciplinary par-
ent-child. relationship. In some
tribes however, a reciprocal rela-
tion of mutual respect exists be-
tween all ages. The disciplines
of the child are those to which the |
adult is also subjected. |

From this training there is no!
inculcation of private guilt. The
sanction is not obedience, but re-—
spect for public approval. The
only misconduct is that which hurts
the community; misconduct is pun-!

of guilt.

Thus, the socialization of: the

aspects of behavior, but also poli- |
cies of the specific culture and its}
specific system of child-rearing.
