Animals Have Consciences And Morals, Declares I' amous Psychologist By Frederick Kuh (United Press staff Correspondent) LeipMc, Germany —(United Preets) Animals not only are capable of 1 thinking, but also possess a sensitive conscience and clear-cut moral standards, according to Professor Richard • Herberts describee numerous inci- 1 Herne university, Switzerland. Writing In, ‘TBs Gartcn’aube", Dr. Herberts doscirbes numerous Incl- ■ dents, illustrating the ethical quail- , , ties of animals. Ho describes his arrival at home tc find the dog with its tail between its i legs. As the murderer instinctively ( . returns to the scene of his crime, so the dog edged his way toward the sofal, Dr. Herberts noticed that a spot on , ■ the couch was still warm and realized ( ■ that, contrary to orders, the dog had ' • been lying on the sofa. ■ “The dog," concludes the professor, I “had suffered conscience pangs.’’ Indeed, the animals appear to ■have their own commandments, i' though nobody knows whether they Include the classical ten. At any rate, ' Professor Herberts declares that the . dog’s life is replete with “Thou Shafts” . I I and “Thou Shalt nots". 11 The same author has witnessed a J dog, alone in the kitchen, sniff at a t chioce piece of meat, hesitate, sniff again and finally, overcome with a settle of morality, abandon the spot , and leave his master’s lunch intacT I Again that still small dog's voice. J Similarly. Dr. Herbertz depicts the I mother.swallow which, after an inner t struggle decided to desert her young land fly from Germany far to the I South But upon seeing strange, baby I swallows in Africa, her memory quit kI ened and it was evident that her abandoned infants were pricking her I conscience. I I "There is reason to believe", declares tile psycho! >gist, "that animals' I ethical behavior must be interpgrtod | like man's." In this conned ion, Jhe Swiss scientist asserts that animals are also capable of independent thought. He qttes- , tions the accuracy of the popular ”' theory that animals learn only by the S in. mu i You Poor Kid, Why Are You So Skinny? 1 Don’t, your mother know that Cod p Liver Oil will put pounds of good i healthy flesh on your bones in just a few weeks’ | Tell her every druggist has it in ’ sugar-coated tablet form now so that s you won’t have to take lite nasty, I fishy-tasting oil that is apt to upset , your delicate stomach.
