The Average Man Has
Low Intellect Declares
Famous Psychologist
Mr Average Man has a very low
intellectual rating according to H
L Hollingsworth a Columbia psy
chologist who finds that he be-
lieves a lot of superstitious things
and has an average intelligence
test of the 14-year old boy
A composite portrait made up of
countless records and endless sta-
tistics including the 93000 men the
government tested during the war
has been pictured by Hollings
worth in summing up the average
man
Ac the age of 53 or earlier the
average man will die This seems
a short span but the average man
ir the time of the Romans did not
live nearly as long Whatever the
length of his lite the average man
will spend about one-third of it in
the stupor we call sleep which is
- sometimes regarded as an unfortse-
nate habit acquired in infancy and
toreed On us by society in general
EVell if he v anted to stay up twenty-four
home a e:ay however the
people in the next apartment would
not permit him to use his time to
advantage if he made a noise they
would complain that he was keep-
ing them from getting their neces-
sary eight or nine hours of sleep
In weight the average man comes
to about one hundred and fifty
pounds tie is about sixty-seven
inches tall Under his skull he
carries a brain that weighs about
1200 grains This is nothing for
him to boast of since there are
persons carrying around a brain
weighing Well over 2000 grains
The difference between the brain of
the average num and of these other
persons Is more than twice the dif-
ference between the brains of the
great apes and of the lowest human
beings On the other hand the
brain of the average man weighs
more than twice as much as does
the brain of the great ape a hich
" averages about 600 grams
What the Average Man knows
The average Man has a pulse rate
of about seventy a minute His vo-
cabulary includes about 7500
ords Ile can probably tell you
what is meant by "nerve" but he
will have difficulty with "coinage"
he understands "Insure" a n d
"shrewd'' but be is not clear about
"dilapidated" and "philanthropy"
lie may know from actual experi-
ence but can not explain the drf-
ference between poverty and mis-
ery He can give three differences
between a President and a King
hut the difference between evolu-
tion and revolution seems to hint
not worth mentioning
If he has a whole minute for the
problem be will get the correct an-
swer when asked how many pen-
cils can be bought for 50 cents if
two pencils cost 5 cents He can
also find out how much seven feet
of cloth will cost at 15 cents a
yard But he is completely lost
when asked how many boxes there
are in a collection in which one
large box holds four small boxes
each containing four smaller ones
Ile can repeat seven numbers he
hears hut If asked to repeat eight
he leaves one of them He can re-
peat simples sentences such as:
"It is nearly half past 1 o'clock
the house is very quiet and the eat
has gone to sleep" But if com-
plicated instructions are given him
be will not be able to remember
them all
tn Average Education
The average man leaves school
at the eighth grade He has a smat-
tering of local geography and
knows a little bit about history and
a few elementary facts of physi-
ology In spite of the fact that he
Is to be accepted as a citizen he
has no general knowledge of civics
setence polities or literature Ile
is able to speak one language only
On a standardized intelligence test
he makes about the same score Jis
does an average boy of 14 Ile
never develops the intelligence re-
quired for satisfactory high school
work
In industry he is likely to drift
Into the HkIlled trades but is not
likely to have an ocetmation supe-
rior to that of his father After a
short period of training he can be-1

TORIES PASS
BILL AIMED
AT LABORITES
Unions Are Forbidden To
Expel Those Who Won't
Strike
LONDON—By a vote of 275 to 120
the house of commona passed the
clause making it illegal for organ-
ized labor to expel a member who
refuses to join a strike which the
courts hold illegal
The clause which is a part of
the trade union bill which is being
bitterly fought by labor opens an
avenue for bankrupting the labor
organizations of England according
to labor members in the house
Debate on the clause was marked
by bitterness against strikebreak-
ers by members of the labor party
Attacks on the government for pro-
posing the hill were overlooked in
the brrrage against workers who
refuse to join a movement for im-
proving conditions
"Blackleg" was the pithiest term
used (Me labor member said the
bill WeS a counterpart to the Vic-
toria Cross taviarded by the gov-
ernment for deeds of heroism) and
offered the following design for it:
An inscription at the top "The
blacklegs reward" and underneath
To him who deserts his comrades
In the day of their struggle" Em-
blem in the center a pig and a pipe
"That will show who is respon-
sible for the bill" said the Labor
member with an evident allusion to
Prime Minister Baldwin's tondnese
for pipe smoking
The trade uaiodists are arousing
Cie country against the bill al-
though the Conservatives' huge ma-
jority assures its passage At one
recent week-end more than 300
meetings were held throughout
England and Scotland

Lindbergh Disappointed War Fanatics By
Refusing To Appear In Military Uniform
WASHINGT0N-011 — Charles
A Lindbergh gave a shock to the
army-navy-militarist lob by i n
Washington by refusing to appear
In a military uniform The son of
the Minnesota congressman who
vvas persecuted for his anti-war
principles and who braved the
mobs incited by the regular Repub-
lican organization in Minnesota in
1918 ignored his new-made title of
colonel in the reserves of the Mis-
souri state militia and faced the
termendous emotional reception in
the capital as a civilian
It is reported in army circles that
Alice Longworth first suggested
that the militarist element should
make use of Lindbergh for restor-
ing the war machine to popular fa'
vor Bascom Slentp West Virginia
non-union coal operator and for-
mer secretary to President Cool-
idge is said to have arranged for
sending a military uniform by
plane to the Memphis so that the
hero saould return in militia uni-
form The army and navy families
who enjoy or anticipate big retire-
ment pensions for father or broth-
er were elated And then the young
hero showed his quality by coolly
I gnoring them and telling that
crowd of 200000 people gathered
at the Washington monument that
In his witty talk at the Press
Club reception Lindbergh described
how he had been virtually kid-
napped and sent home by the state
department which claimed it I'as
merely giving him advice but had
a warship waiting to carry him
home Ile said he was opposed to
subsidizing the aircraft industry in
America because it would prob-
ably mean that the government
would control the "use" to be made
of aircraft—a hint that he did not
want aircraft to be made t9 serve
the war business

MAN IS NOT
WORTH MUCH
JURY THINKS
NEW YOlik—A jury deciding a
damage suit brought by the Lonny
of a worker placed the value of a
man 30 years of age and earning
$3501) a year at $17500 Opposing
lawyers claimed that the price tag
was much too high
The jury did not reveal its meth-
od for reaching a decision but ac-
cording to Dr Louis I Dublin sta-
tistician of a large insurance corn-
Pany they arrived at a very unfair
valuation
Dr Dublin who has rnade a
scientific study of the values of hu-
man life says that a man at the
age Of 30 who will earn $2500 as a
maximum has a life value of ap-
proximately $1000
This is taking into consideration
the present worth of the average
gross earnings of men of his age
and Income class and allowing
about $I2000 for the present worth
of his personal expenses during the
same period Doctor Dublin said
Explaining his reasons for mak-
ing this study of the subject he
said that the cmirts had given so
many conflicting verdicts that the

The American Federation of
Teachers is a constituent union of
the American Federation of Labor
to which it paid pereapita tax on
3500 members in I926 It is also
affiliated with the World Federa-
tion of Educational Association
which is holding a conference at
Toronto in August
'School boards object to union-
ization of le1Lchers1' says Secretary
Florence Curtis Hanson of the fed-
eration "ostensibly because of our
affiliation with the A F of L and
because principals and superin-
tendents are not admitted as MOM-
hers of our classroom locals Th P
real reason is however the fear
that hen the teachers join whele-
heartedly with organized labor
their combined power will wrest
education out of its present hands

(From the Literary Digest)
Cr 1 he Ch ii rdl IS now conducting

that the miner is outside the

that ran be smoothed out with
beautiful phrases from a distant
IttliPit or polite palaver from the
mine-Owner His experiences as
itoY and a young Mall have brought
home to the Rev Hobert Barr he
writes in The British Weekly the
sad fact that the official Church in
Scotland has not in 200 years made
any effort to interpret the faith in
terms or the mine "The mine-owner
might feel at ease in the pew
and in church circles but not the
miner The Gospel as it wits ex-
pounded had no balm for his
W 0 II nds no encouragement for his
heart no goti news indeed for one
living the life that the miner and
his family had to live" In view of
the Church's active Interests in the
affairs of industry in this country
It is enlightening to know that else-
where too a churchman demands
that the Church go down into the
pit not remain in the pulpit if it
would understand the problems it
hopes to solve The miner Is worth
seeking says Mr Barr who came
up from the pit to the pulpit and
he gives us a few "plain every-day
facts" of the miner's life in Scotland:
