everywhere orwilhami 129 it is part of the militaristic and fascist creeds that man is a fighting animal fundamentally no different from any savage a creature whose natural combativeness must find an outlet in war heredity being what it is it follows that to civilized man of today war is a biological and psychological necessity how sound is this logic the world is still full of savages they ought to exhibit all the pugnacity and aggressiveness inseparable from a civilized nation striving by force of arms to achieve what its leaders conceive to be its manifest destiny dr gregory bateson of st johns college cambridge england holds that it is time for us to study the psychology of primitive existing tribes and to discover if possible whether or not our ancestors were forever on the warpath or for that matter especially savage the ara- pesh of new guinea the sulka the zuni of mexico are almost entirely nonaggressive in fact dr bate son finds that most savage peoples have amalgamated war with their culture so that fighting is governed by a series of rules like those of a football game the zulus and the lae wamba of new guinea are among the very few savages known theljft and energy of cod liver oil plus greater efficiency to ethnology who fight somewhat after the european fashion culture and warfare from all this dr bateson con cludes that we cannot ascribe eu ropean warfare directly to mans innate aggressiveness he sees some cultural factor at work which effectively determines whether a community shall habitually fight and what sort of fighting it shall have how far behavior patterns are in herited no one knows it is certain that our savage ancestors were both assertive and submissive no one can tell which of these two urges or instincts is dominant in peace or war or as dr bateson puts it in peacetime cither or both of these may be expressed in digging potatoes or in selling stocks and shares and in the world war there were as many men whose submiss- iveness willingness to die gamely led them to the business of killing as there were men whose assertive- ness led them to the business of be ing killed yet bateson is no pacifist he thinks that children should be pro tected from fear but how are we to achieve this if we behave as if we were afraid ourselves of pre paring for war struggle and without knowing whether the milk will go to

roused from their reveries by elec tricity and there is a patent sense in which the telephone is but au- other form of electric tickler and so are all bells i it has been excellently observed i that nothing would astonish the early victorians more than to have been told that a few decades would see their sons or grandsons whatever their wealth and importance running to answer bells even in the middle 74thi meals like footmen and yet the telephone has had no difficulty in thus levelling up humanity so there can be no question about treating cows in a derogatory man ner- indeed the electric

statistics cannot the harm done to farming by the melancholy and vague eyes of cows the townsman whose vote is so numerous is easily led into thinking farmers must be slow- j witted and obstinate because they hobnob so much with cows and sheep whose expressions do not inspire con fidence if the stock farm animals had been more resolute and active in mien the long sacrifice of agriculture might never have been so commonly accepted no one again can measure though docile research students across the atlantic will probably be sent to try how far the new respect for agri culture owes its rise to the new mechanization of the farm visitors who see dairies in which the machinery is not only compli cated but electrical and so perhaps lethal go away in a chastened and less arrogant frame of mind
