By SAUL R. KLEIMAN
Many adults today lack perspective
and motivation in the direction of
social change mainly because they
are "impeded by residues of past
frustrations" arising from their fail-
ure to handle the several crises in
their growth, according to Dr. Eduard
Lindeman, director of recreation proj-
ects of the W.P.A., who addressed the
Parents' Education Institute yester-
day afternoon.
Dr. Lindeman, a former member
of the faculty of the School of Social
Work of New York University, is one
of the many visiting celebrities in the
educational field who have been
brought to Ann Arbor to speak to
the Institute . The first meeting was
held yesterday; the meetings today
and tomorrow in the University High
School will conclude the program.
Life Crises Are Listed
The crises in arperson's growth
which determine whether or not he
will fall behind the times and be un-
able to adapt himself to social change
are, Dr. Lindeman said: the transfer,
of the child of three or four to the use
of the spoken word instead of sym-
bols; the child's unconscious discovery
of logic and his attempt to under-
stand human purpose; puberty; the
adaption of the person from 18 to 25'
years of age to the problems of sex
courtship and family; and the find-
ing of an occupation.
The two last crises are at present
steadily growing in severity, Dr.
Lindeman said. "Due to our awk-
ward economic system which results
in increasing insecurity for the
workers" the adaptation to family life
and marriage is becoming more and
more difficult with each generation,
he said. f
"Young folks today have the urge,;
Just as they did generations back to
legalize, "canonize" 'the sex im-
pulse. But great masses of them
can't. They can't afford it."'
Vocational Training Foreseen
People who have not been able to
find a position in the economic world
constitute a very serious problem be-,
cause of their tremendous numbers,
he added. For that reason Dr. Linde-
man believes that occupational train-
ing is a definite necessity if these,
people are ever to become adapted to
a dynamic world in which there is no.
need for their present skills. .
The next W.P.A. appropriation will
probably specifically provide for such
training, Dr. Lindeman, who is a very1
close friend of Harry Hopkins, said.
The first appropriation for relief was
a "blank check," while the secondi
provided five specified fields in whichi
the money was to be used.t

The Democratic landslide in Mich-
igan, carrying in the complete state
ticket as it did, was one of the biggest,
surprises of the election. These offi-
cers will be inaugurated Jan. 1, when
Murphy will take office.
Washtenaw county, however, gave
pluralities to all Republican candi-
dates, who took their most severe
thumping in Detroit and other met-

TRIANGLES TO MEET
At a meeting held last night at the
Union it was announced that Tri-
angles, junior engineering society,
would hold a special session tomor-
row night at Hagen's. All active and
inactive members are expected to at-

terviewed by Daily reporters during1
the recent student presidential poll,1
as to the reason for their choice of'
candidates, he pointed out that such
words as "regimentation," American
standard of living," and "American-!
ism" are pointless and without
meaning.
These words, which go to make up
a large part of the politician's speech,
arouse an emotional reaction in the*
voter and no attempt is made to de-
termine their true meaning. This,
type of word is so effective on the
voter because of it's suggestiveness,
he said. The politician finds a word
which has a bad connotation, such as
"regimentation," then he ties it up
with some campaign issue which he
is against, such as the Social Se-
curties Act and thus makes the two
seem inseparable to the voter.
"Reasoning with regard to most
things of life is relatively a simple
association," he stated. Most people,
he feels, do not rationalize, but,
merely take their ideas from atti-
tudes or feelings which have been
impressed on them. For example,
he said, young people, after hearing
