SAYS MOTHER LOVE i
> IS SELFISH WHILE
FATHER’S IS JUST
LOEB’S FATHER REALLY MARTYR
| TO STAY AWAY FROM CELL,
SAYS PROFESSOR.
NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-Houses div
ided against themselves are many.
Houses divided against their sons
are more seldom seen.
Though no actual schism exists in
the unhappy home of the parents
of Richard Loeb, partner in crime
of Nathan Leopold, a uifference in
I their attitude toward thc-ir unfor
tunate son has been levealed.
Since the first statement made by
those distracted parents at the time
of the verdict we have heard that
together they intend to visit their
son, Richard, at the Illinois Suite
Penitentiary ,at Joliet, as soon as
Mrs. Loeb’s health will premit. But
at first the widely divergent reac
tions of father and mother seem to
epitomize paternal and maternal
I love. It is usually the mother who
spares herself no dreadful sight,
such as a beloved son drawn into
the iron embrace of jail, and it is
invariably the father whose pride is
long in recovering from such a blow.
Dr. Max G. Sclilapp, professsor of
neuropathology at. the Pot-Gradu
ate Medical School and Hospital and
director of the Children’s Court
Clinic of this city, has discussed this
aspect of the situation with us.
Quite startlingly, he calls mother
love utter selfishness, and father
, love akin to pure justice. Then he
explains:
“Mother love is swayed by feel
ing more than by intellect. It is
this love without reason that makes
mothers love and hug and kiss the
most depraved and vicious looking
idiots of children—and protect them.
“That is mother love!
“The father has a feeling that is
not at all the same as the moth
er’s. The father often dictates what
his own actions shall be tow-ard his
child, dictates by his own intelect.
“Now I don’t want to analyze peo
pe withot knowing them. There
are so many hundreds of thousands
of personalities of -varying degrees
that it is hard to say anything of
those you don’t know except gen
erally,"" and my remarks here are
to be taken only generally. Of
course, I may be mistaken.
“A father usually will stop and
think and reason and try to place
himself in his boy’s position.
“‘Good God!’ he will exclaim,
‘would I have done this? Think* of
what he has done—doesn’t he real
ize, didn’t he stop to think of him
self and us?’
“That is father love!
. “Woman is really more selfish
than man. Yes, I mean mothers
too. Wait!
“Woman is selfish where it con
cerns her or hers.
“A man, you may say, would be
unselfish to go see his boy in jail.
A woman could be said to be self
ish because it is her boy!

‘‘If a woman knew about a strang- i
er’s boy suffering in jail I don’t
think she would be so affected by it,
not so easily, anyway, as a man. He
would think, ‘Damn it, I can help that
fellow and I will!’ With a woman it
is not to be comparable to the situa
tion of finding it was her own son
that needed help.”
The question of selfishness came
up when the writer asked Dr.
Schlapp whether or not Loeb’s ap
parent refusal to see his son were
not selfish and possibly rooted in
a desire to save himself suffering.
Dr. Schlapp does not agree to that.
“I don’t think a father would stay
away from a child in disgrace mere
ly to save his own feelings,” the
neurologist rpelied.
‘‘I have a feeling myself that he
might be a martyr in his refusal
to go—that he might find himself
in the state of denying his own wish
to go because of the terrific situa
tion suddenly brought on him.
“ ‘Here is my son,’ he would rea- j
son to himself, ‘my hope, my pride, ]
my wonderful boy, who could have
made his father so proud, and happy,
and he lias ruined hiself, his moth
er and me!’ “No,” Dr. Schlapp in
sisted, “1 think it is martyrdom for
such a father to refuse and not all
a question of pride.”
While a mother may be selfish in
protecting her own, it is a con
structive and useful selfishness.' She
is guided by instinct to thus guard
what has been put into her keeping.
Dr. Schlapp goes on:
“A woman always acts by the dic
tates of her emotions.
“A man is more inclined to rea- i
son and to permit his reason (it
rules him. anyway; I don’t mean
free will either) to run him.
“A woman on the witness stand
will lie to protect her own.
“Is the modern mother becoming
more reasonable in her attitude to
ward her children—more reasonable
than emotional? No, indeed! She
is not!
“The modern woman is getting
more and more unstable emotional
ly.”
MRS. HEARST VISITS POPE
ROME, Oct. 22—The pope today
received Mrs. Randolph Hearst in a
special audience.
Minneapolis and St. Paul are still
at it. Something must be done about
those two towns. This one comes
from St. Paul:
A Minneapolis man drifted into
the sister city, looked superciliously
at a fruiter’s display, picked up a
big watermellon and asked with a
sneer:
“Is this the largest apple you have
in St. Paul?”
“Hey!” bellowed the proprietor.}
“Put that grape down!”

SHE CHANGED HER MIND
Among the jurors summoned was
a woman who wished to be ex
cused.
“Well, madam, why don’t you
want to serve on this jury?” asked
the judge.
“I’m opposed to * capital punish
ment.”
“But this is merely a case in
which a wife is suing her husband
for an accounting. It seems she
gave him a thousand dollars to pay
down on a handsome fur coat and
he is alleged to have lost the money
at poker.”
The woman juror spoke up in
prompt fashion: , 1

capital punishment.”—Pittsburg (Pa)

AN EMPIRE BUILDER
As all railroads in years gone by have been the greatest
contributing factors in development of the regions through
which 'they passed, so also is THE ALASKA RAILROAD
each day accomplishing much towards the building of an
empire.
In place of the old tremendously expensive and inconve
nient method of transporting supplies of whatever character
over rough trails from the coast, there is now a modern rail
way that carries supplies and equipment in greater quantities
to and from the Interior, and along the way, in much less
time and at far less expense than was formerly required.
This great steel highway offering regular twice weekly
freight and passenger service between Seward, Anchorage and
Fairbanks; and tri-weekly mixed service over the Chickaloon
and Chatanika branches, is at your service. For further in
formation write
