Mr. Roosevelt has not drafted the

the tax matter to congress and thus

See No Harm in
Using Left Hand
We have published the fullest and
most considered pronouncement on
left-handed writing which has
reached us In the course of a lively
The topic was
correspondence,
raised by a request for advice
whether it was or was not well to
Insist at school upon the use of the
right hand for writing. The inquir
er's experience was that boys who
wrote with their left hands were
apt to be slovenly not only In their
writing but also In their thinking.
That slovenliness others have stout
ly denied; but one suggestion Is that
the appearance of It may be caused
by a tendency In left-handed people
to rend from right to left, which
would make written and printed
matter, and especially figures, much
more difficult to take In. Then came
the question whether or not compul
sory use of the right hand for writ
ing by left-handed children was
likely to Induce stammering. Our
correspondent "Medlcus" does not
deny this; hut he says that It is dif
ficult to discover what. If any, con
nection exists between stammering
and left-handodness, because stam
mering occurs In right-handed peo
ple. A surgeon thinks that compul
sory right-hand writing Is likely "to
encourage an Inferiority complex";
and It is not unreasonable to sup
pose that a sense of guilt (or, at
least, of being "different") and the
enforced struggle to do as'others do
might easily result In some disabil
ity or trouble of which stammering
might be only one, and not an in
variable sign. The parent of left
handed children may have to choose
between allowing them (or seeing
that others allow them) to write as
comes natural to them and letting
them run the risk of nervous or
other afflictions through being forced
Into the usual practice. The choice
would not he easy. Probably the
most sensible course would be to in
duce a left-handed child, ns gently
and as early as possible, to use his
right hand, not instead of but as
well as his left hand In drawing and
writing, holding out the reward that,
when both are reasonably elficlent,
he shall take his choice and be al
lowed to maintain It at school. On

querably left-handed children this
