OFFICIALS HERE LIMIT ITS VALUE

Doctor or Psychologist Has To Interpret Tests, Inventor Admits.

By SAM TYNDALL ° ° Local law enforcement officials and a psychologist today agreed ths public had been “oversold” on the | lie detector. The question of the value: of the device was opened after its inventor, Dr.-John A. Larson, told a group of lawyers in Detroit lastynight that “there is no machine at detects les. » Local officials expressed willingness to join any movement to debunk the lie detector to its proper place in modern crime detection work. They agreed the device in the public imagination had gotten “a little out of hand.”

Detects “Complexes”

Science Service reported that Dr. Larson, who is head of the Detroit Court psychopathic clinic, said the lie test does not de-

“He declared however, that ‘although ° the test should not be used as legal evidence of guilt, it can be used to advantage by criminal investigators. “There is one of Dr. Larson’s machines at the State Police head-

who performs the test said: ~ Used Within Limitations’ “We use the detector strictly for

and it is used with the limitations in mind. “In the first place the detector registers guilty knowledge and will record the same effect upon an innocent person who has knewledge of the crime ‘as the actual criminal. “Further, the results of the tests mean nothing when used upon insane’ persons or persons, who because they were insane at the time of crime, remember nothing of it.” Hleut. Kooken said possible harmful affects of the use of the machine on persons ‘with heart ailment and high blood * pressure are guarded|Ww against by blood tests.

He said he didn’t agree with Larson’s statement that only a oh Sian was qualified to interpret the

--Dr. Max Bahr, Central State Hospital superintendent, declared only a psychoanalyst could be qualified to interpret the results of the machine. “The lie detector is based on the theory of ‘the association test used by psychoanalysts. Certain questions unearth in a person’s subconscious mind painful complexes which when brought’ to the ‘conscious mind cause retardations ‘in the blood pressure and respiration.

“The machine attempts to record 8

the retardations on a chart. “The weakness lies in. the fact that -a question may bring up a painful complex from the suspect's subconscious mind which: records on the machine when the complex has

Rensal Seotion of Pawnshop. Law Is Asked.

Postponing action. on an on nance ‘creating a local housing au-|
