‘Service With a Smile’ May Be War Casualty

By BETTY MacDONALD Times Special Writer WASHINGTON; July 8—The great American hotel slogan, “Service With a Smile,” is about to be discontinued for the duration If recommendations by the office of civilian requirements are accepted by the industry. Due to the manpower shortage, hotels throughout America may have to discontinue the following traditional services: special room service: serving meals in rooms; reduction of linen supply for guests: reduction of bellboy service except in emergencies; limiting guests to one room per person; elimination of check room and rest room attendants; reduction in dining room services; including lavish use of glassware and silver.

Pork Chops Coming Up

Despite the fact that feed supplies are dwindling, American farmers have produced a record spring pig crop, estimated at 22 per cent larger than the 1942 crop, or an added 9,000,000 head. To serve the nation’s interests best, farmers are urged to keep the fall pig crop down to 15 per cent above the record, instead of the expected 21 per cent increase.

Odds 'n' Ends :

Raw and dressed hog bristles, except those used by brush manufacturers, are exempt from price control, according to OPA. Also exempt are red lead and orange mineral color pigments.

CREEK GIVES UP MORE COUPONS

Total Stamps Recovered Valued at 12,400,000

Gallons.

Another batch of T and R gasoline rationing coupons good for 400,000 gallons have been recovered from a creek near Veedersburg, the district OPA office here revealed today. The additional coupons were found by four OPA investigators who were sent to the scene yesterday after five boys, ranging in age from 7 to 14 years, found coupons good for 12 million gallons while in swimming.

The investigators said the soaked coupons were found floating in the small stream under a bridge, indicating they had been thrown from a passing automobile,

A Record Find

Robert Orasher, acting chief OPA enforcement attorney, said that the batch of coupons was the largest ever recovered in the country. He said that he was considering asking the FBI and secret service agents of the treasury department to aid in the investigation. The coupons had been consigned from a printing firm in Hoboken, N. J., to a government office in Dallas, Tex. Investigators believe they were stolen and are checking the printing firm to learn whether there were any A, B and C coupons in the package which might have been kept by the thieves for their own use, A sheet of brown government wrapping paper, also taken from

designation of the shipment. When the boys found them, they took them to one's home and were

Held Cure for Stuttering

By DR. THOMAS D. MASTERS Stuttering is a fairly common (about 1 per cent) defect in man, but is rarely so serious a condition that it cannot be cured. Several theories and treatment have been devised for this affliction, all of

which are considered as successful. If one of them fails to cure the stutterer, another usually will. Probably because language is so complicated, the process of human evolution. The functions of language are closely tied with manual skill, and the understand- g 2 ing of symbols, and these appear to have reached their present degree of perfection because of the: dominance: of one side of : the brain over the other. Our under-

not primarily to faulty mechanics, but to their control by the mind, which is inseparable from the body. Ultimately, this view led to the consideration of stuttering as a personality defect, which with great simplification may be described as maladjustment to environment, or abnormal emotional states such as fear or lack of confidence. Hereditary Tendency

The stuttering was considered a symptom which would disap-

STRIKE REPORTED BY GENERAL MOTORS

production in the entire plant, Wil- | liam H. Doersner, general manager, announced today. The plant, which manufactures semi-automatic rifles for the army, employs about 5000 workers, Doers- | ner said, The walkout was staged to protest a seven-day work week started by the company to increase

ing of the ship. The government also has ordered dismantling of small shops erected on adjoining piers for workers employed . in the salvage operations, which have been described as the greatest in history. The entire superstructure of the vessel has been removed and officials hope to refloat the ship by pumping water from flooded compartments.

MANY INJURED

PITTSBURGH, July 8 (U. P.).— A score of persons were injured, none seriously, when ga locomotive backed into the rear of ‘a Pennsylvania railroad passenger train at

standing of . Masters stuttering began with the theory that the function of the muscles of chest, throat, tongue and lips was disturbed. The presence of spasm involving some of these muscles, at least, was obvious.

Types of Treatment

This theory led to several types

of treatment. Breathing exercises were performed, drills were given in articulation, and further training was directed toward teaching the stutterer to master the movements required in making the sounds which he found difficult. Difficult consonants were avoided entirely. The approach to treatment from the point of view of faulty mechanics of speech is the most usual method of all, and has helped more stutterers than any other, single method. But it is debatable whether the training or the associated psychological help is more responsible for the improvement. Later, another school of thought developed, and its adherents thought that stammering was due

pear when the emotional disturbance was relieved. Treatment based on this concept was directed toward psychological re-edu-cation, designed to instill confidence and eliminate the fear of talking. Another theory considers stuttering as due to hereditary structural defect of that part of the brain that controls language. A familiar tendency to slow development of speech, reading disability, left-handedness and stuttering is frequently found. About 25 per cent of men are left-handed or ambidextrous, and if a child is trained away from his dominant hand, or even helped to use his right hand when he is slightly left-handed or ambidextrous, he may develop stuttering, This theory leads to treatment designed to correct the early training and to support the defect by tying it to the other language functions like reading, writing and speech drills. There is probably an element of each theory active in all cases of stuttering. The best treatment considers each possibility, and places its emphasis on the dominant fault.
