GERMAN book which has just appeared in Amster dam shows that the threat of persecution still hangs over the scientific research worker as menacingly as it did in the darkest periods of history.
"For these reasons," wrote the author in 1938, "I shall not let this work be known, but that does not pre- vent me from writing it down. It can then lie hidden until a time comes when it can safely venture into the light or until someone who reaches the same conclusions and opinions can be told: "There was somebody even in those dark days who thought the same as you."
The book is by Professor Sigmund Freud; its title, "Moses and Monotheism." The public who have been awaiting its pub lication for years were told that it would only appear after the author's death.
Clearly it is among Freud's most important spéculative work. It suggests that Moses was not a Jew but an Egyptian follower of the Pharaoh Akhnaton, and it is from Akhnaton's sun-worship that he believes Judaism and Christianity to be derived.
THEORY OF RELIGION
in the course of the argument Freud examines the causes of anti- Semitism, the continued existence of the Jewish race, and will offend large sections of public opinion by
his whole treatment of religion,
which he sees as a counterpart of neurosis in the individual,
Its power, he says, "comes from the truth it contains, only this truth is not a material truth, but on his- torical one."

SIX WEEKS LATER
From what you tell me, Mrs. Norton, your trouble is Night Starvation. You see,
even at night you go on using up
energy in heartbeats, breathing and
other sutomatic actions. In your case,
this has also led to an excess of acid waste products in the blood..
All this causes you to vako tired, feel and look run-down and nervy: Recent tests kave proved that Horlicks is what
people need for that....
Darling. I'm proud of you..
