Henry, 1162.1910, VOLUME LV UNITED MEM FULL LEASED WIRE IERVICE MEXIA, TEXAS. MONDAY, AUGUST 24,1953 MEA COMPLETE FEATURE SERVICE NUMBER 200 The Way It Seems to By Ernie DOC K1N8EY and have spent 40 "manyears" of work trying learn the sex sec- ruts of American women, and apparently the most startling thing they've come up with is that the wimmen folks just ain't too greatly interested-in it. The doc and his boys might Well have put in all those man, years trying to find out some things that'would be a lot more helpful to mankind in general.

Following are some things which seem to me to be of vastly greater importance, with an added comment here and. there from what might be called "The Dcane Report." HOW COME Doc Khuey and, associates can't determine why it is that a woman never can find what she's looking for in her purse? In fact, half the time 90 percent of the wimmen folks I know can't even find the 'purse this goes for those born prior to I960 and after 1900, Victorian modesty and World War I "freedom" notwithstanding. Isn't mankind entitled to know why women won't wear pockets in their clothes, like the men- folks do, and thus eliminate the wear and tear on feminine nerves masculine ones, too caused by fruitless and frustrated searches into the interiors of purses? The doc may think it's misguided sex that causes marital troubles in this land of muscular men and sweet-smelling women, and maybe he's ll lay odds that of tensions around the home are caused by the little woman being unable to find what she'jB hunting for in her purse. A man, of course, just reaches into the proper pocket. BEFORE he got so busy trying to' learn about the relations of women with men, the doc should have studied the relations of women with each relations, that is.

Why is it, for that a woman wouldn't be in informal attire at a social urgejto conform yet will never get over being at ah event in a dress that is duplicate of some other woman's urge to non-con- form? Here is a paradox in the makeup of womankind Doc Kinsey ought to into. And say, doc, what causes a woman to look into a whole closet full of clothes and shake her head and say "I just don't have a thing to wear?" ALONG this same line of thought, women versus women, the doc might find out for us curious menfolks why it is that ladies reserve their very sweetest smiles for fellow females whom they like the least. Did you ever see two women who are known enemies get together at'any sort of public function? Not a ruffled feather be- tween'em. All is purity and IN READING the reviews of Doc Kinsey's in the ladies magazines, containing by far the most details, by the way got the impression that sex is woman's secret weapon in her battle for existence so-called man's world. Not so, dear Doctor it's tears.

A woman's tears will melt the rock in the heart of almost any man who ever Jived, as any honest man will admit and as women have known since the time of Mother Eve. THERE if whole field of endeavor which Doc Kinsey rould tackle if he has another 40 manyears to put into the search, This is the field of women's talk, what it means, where it leads, what it is, arid in general how come No simple-minded man, or ev- 1 pn a genius of the male species, has ever yet understood how it is that as many as a dozen toomen can conduct a rapid-fire conversation with each talking at later repeat everything that everybody said, it's just a little bit on the gossipy side. Does the physical makeup of women include some tort of specialised recording" machinery that a man doesn't Tiave? There must be some wheels turning that we men dont although the doc's ludid seems to these women would mys 3J5s lord wljr knows would happen to the human 1'ttce, "No Death Trap" Project Senate Probers Say Red Spies Made Way Into US Government WASHINGTON, D.
