it seems likely that the present

If this is so, Dr. Cressey asked,
what, should be our attitude toward
recognition of the Peking govern-
ment? We seem to have confused
aiplomatic recognition with ap-
proval.
We have recognized Tito, Fran-

ments, but because they cannot
very well be ignored. It therefore
seems that sooner or later we will
otticially recognize communist
China since invasion er revolution
seems unlikely.
in order for the Nationalists to
return to the mainland, they would
need a‘ large and efficient army and
supplies, They have neither.
A third essential for recapturing
the mainland is troops in the in-
terior which would be willing to
fight for the invading Nationalists.
There is little possibility of help
in this form, for most such troops

from the heart, whether they work

‘Freedom itself was related by
the poet to lines from one of his
poems, The Silken Tent. ‘“But
strictly held by /none is loosely
bound by countless ties of love and
thought.”
The subjects of his poems rath-
er than any prepared program car-
ried Mr. Frost from one poem to

Frost seemed to be more a teacher

The readings themselves were

for emphasis. Comments were of-

Child Study Center
Subject Ot Speech
Mrs. Karoline Solmitz from the
Clinic of Psychiatric Social Work-
ers discussed the “History, Aims,
and Services of the Child Study
Center of ,Philadelphia” with stu-
dents in the Common Room at 8:30
Tuesday night.
Mrs. Solmitz explained that the
Child Study Center handles three
main types of problems.
The most prevalent type is the
behavior problem. These children
are generally in the latency per-
iod (6-10 years old), or in early
adolescense. They exhibit general
miSbehavior, such as lying, steal-
ing, truancy, aggression and ab-
normal sex behavior.
In the second group is the more
neurotic child whose Behavior is
more emotional and internalized.
This child may whine or cry all the
time, show a poor school adjust-
ment or have reading and speech
impediments, or find himself un-
able to get.along with his peers.
In the third group are the men-
tally retarded children who have
special problems of adjustment
and education. ,
‘Besides treatment for problem
children, the Center has facilities
for. research in child development
and the training of psychiatrists,
psfchologists, and social workers. ,
The Center offers a diagnostic
service and treatment sessions (in-
dividual and/or group). Play ther-
apy is used in the treatment of
young children, and _ interviews
with a psychiatrist who can “share
the child’s worries” are used with
older children,
Since the co-operation of ithe
parents is vital in the treatment of
the child, the parents are also in-
‘YugoslaviaT oday’ Topic
Of Adam Ulam’s Address
Continued from Page 1
Communists, deep.y devoted to
Stal.n, but they challenged Russia
because they wished to impose
communistic principles more
quickly than Russia. Basically,
however, they were. seeking more
power, not a complete split.
The break provoked skepticism
in the West. As Mr. Ulam ques-
tioned, “Why would” Tito turn
against the only power that could
help him?
1949-1950 was a period of transi-
tion, Mr. Ulam explained. As Rus-
sia’s official insults increased, Yu-
goslavia grew to hate her.. The na-
tion was also suffering an eco-
nomic crisis. With his supplies
blocked, Tito’s economic reform
was shaken,
Facing political reality in 1950,
Yugoslavia halted the program of
farm collectivization and decreased
the rate of industrialization. For
the first time, economic aid and ad-
vice was accepted from the West.
Concerning the progress of free-
dom in Yugoslavia, Mr.-Ulam said,
“It is eo for the Commu-
nist party shift to a democ-
racy, but the Yugoslavian commu-
nists attempted to democratize the
country by..1) releasing more peo-
pl from jail; 2) by arresting fewer
people; and 3) by talking about
democracy. ... However, basic
changes in the totalitarian system
were not made; the lack of per-
sonal freedoms continued.”
Ideologically and emotionally,
Yugoslavia is anti-capitalist .and
anti- West, and the Yugoslavian
does not want to substitute West+
ern imperialism for Russian, Con-
sequently, Mr. Ulam said, there is
& mutual admiration between Yu-
goslavia and various world-wide
socialist groups.
