CARING FOR YOUR
TRANSMISSION

The transmission is one of the most complex ports of
your car. It combines both mechanical and hydraulic
components. Many of the internal parts are
machined and assembled to very close tolerance. To
prevent excessive wear or failure, they require pro-
per lubrication, proper cooling, and good driver core.

Good care means that you should:

• avoid wheel spinning in snow or mud
• not engage "drive" or "reverse" when car is mov-
ing
• not pull oversized loads such as trailers or boats
• have the transmission checked at the first sign of a
transmission fluid leak.

that violence is taught, the op-
posite is true. Tolerance has
got to be taught. It's not easy to
learn, and certainly favorable
socio-economic conditions, al-
though they don't guarantee a
climate of tolerance, make
tolerance much easier to
achieve. It isn't the dejected
state that makes for violence
or intolerance. It's when rising
expectations are not met."
Bettelheim was born into an
"assimilated Jewish
bourgeoisie family in Vienna"
in 1903. His paternal grand-
father, Moritz Bettelheim,
was born in a town on the bor-
der of Slovakia, Austria and
Hungary. Depending on which
nation was in the ascendancy,
it was known as Bratislava,
Pressburg or Pozsony. At the
time when Jews were still not
permitted to settle in Vienna
or Budapest, it became a cen-
ter for Jews who wanted to le-
gally live as close as possible to
Vienna.
Moritz Bettelheim became
the tutor for the children of the
famous Rothschild family of
Vienna. He became a link be-
tween the Rothschilds and the
Jewish community of Vienna,
a position greatly augmented
by his marriage to the daugh-
ter of the first Jewish family
allowed to settle in Vienna.
Bruno Bettelheim's maternal
grandfather was a Czech ped-
dler and Bettelheim's father
was a businessman. Bet-
telheim received his doctorate
at the University of Vienna in
1938, the year of the Austrian
Anschluss.
Had Bettelehim ever met—
Freud? "Yes, a few times," re-
calls Bettelheim, "but when I
met him he was already an old
man and suffered from cancer
of the jaw. And so one re-
spected that. As a student, he
had been a close friend of one
of my uncles, also a doctor, and
another uncle was a close
friend of one of Freud's sisters.
He was a friend of the family.
When I came around and was
introduced to him, he said 'A
Bettelheim doesn't need any
introduction to me."'
During the crucial period
before the Nazi annexation of
Austria, Bettelheim was
active in a group which "tried
to stop the advance of Nazism
in Austria and tried to help
Jewish and non-Jewish anti-
Nazi elements in Germany as
well as we could. I knew my
situation was precarious and
that I had to escape. I made my
way to Czechoslovakia be-
cause it was then a democracy
and I thought it would be my
best chance. But at the border
the Czechs turned me back

and handed me over to the Au-
strian police, which was al-
ready Nazi. If I would have
tried Hungary or Italy, which
were fascist countries, I would
probably have gotten out right
away. It was an error in judg-
ment."
At first, the Austrian police
placed Bettelheim under sur-
veillance. When Austria for-
mally became a part of the
Third Reich, he was arrested
and placed on a transport for
Dachau. Later he was trans-
ferred to Buchenwald, and in
1939 suddenly released. Why?
"Who knows?" says Bet-
telheim. "The Gestapo never
told anybody that. There was a
family fortune, but perhaps
they would have kept me any-
way. But at that time, a fair
number of Jews were willing
to leave all their earthly pos-
sessions behind and could
demonstrate they would im-
mediately emigrate. At that
time, the Jews were still a
minority in the camps — this
was still three years before the
beginning of the extermina-
tion policy. Some Jews were
being released from the
camps, some Jews were made
to stay, and of course, some
died there. -
"It was a condition that I
would not remain more than a
week in what was then Ger-
many. I assure you that I com-
plied fully."
Bettelheim emigrated to
America. He was fortunate
enough to receive sponsorship
papers from the dean of the
University of Chicago. As soon
as he arrived in America, Bet-
telheim wrote a paper on his
experiences and observations
in the Nazi concentration
camps. He submitted it to
psychoanalytic journals but it
was rejected. It wasn't until
1943 that his article was pub-
