Men Stylists 'Hitting Back At Females' (Special Dispatch to the Chicago Daily News la and The Des Moines Tribune.) CHICAGO, ILL. -Men who design feminine fashions are women's worst enemies, a psychiatrist says. They are not dressing women for beauty, he serts, but rather to caricature them by designing peculiar and uncomfortable clothing.

After analyzing many males connected with the fashion industry, Dr. Edmund Bergler of' New York has reached the conclusion that unsuspecting women are victims of a fashion hoax. "Women who trust men's fashion guidance are delivering themselves into the hands of their worst enemies," says Dr. Bergler. Of course, it's all on an unconscious level, he points out in his new book, "Fashion and the Unconscious" (Brunner).

Behind it all is the fact that some men are inwardly terrified of women. They hate women as 8 defense mechanism. It goes back to babyhood. Men can never forget that at one time they were completely dependent on women. The myth of the superior male shattered.

To Alleviate. "Feminine clothes are a masculine invention designed to alleviate man's repressed fears and to bolster up, unconsciously, his tottering he-man attitude," Dr. Bergler says. One way to strike back is to reduce woman's appearance to absurdity or to make them uncomfortable, he adds. Hence the hobble skirt, the figure-forming corsets, whalebone stiffened high collars.

coats without buttons, flapper fashions and modern day clothing which "deprecates women in a silly supercilious way." (Copyright, 1953.)

The Howes, A Christmas Without Son ALDEN, MINN. (P)-Brightly wrapped presents, tinseled trees, oven-browned turkeys and church services filled Christmas Day for, the people of this quiet southern Minnesota farm community.

But thousands of miles away, in a little Korean village, 8 20-year-old soldier who had enjoyed many such typical Alden Christmases was spending this one with 21 other Americans who have refused repatriation.

Portia Howe. She came home Christmas Eve without the son she had traveled some 14,000 miles in an unsuccessful attempt to see. He apparently had been won by Communism. Clue. Mrs.

Howe believes she may have a clue to the strange turn in her son's thinking. She said she understood Richard and others "had been kept underground from last May to October," and that they had been "dying of malnutrition." She did not elaborate. In a well-worn pile of letters Mrs. Howe spread on her dining room table was evidence of the subtle change of an apparently typical G. I.

on the front lines to a Communist pawn or willing servant. After his capture, his first letter home, dated Christmas Eve, 1951, remarked about the prison camp food: "The biggest share of us appreciate it more than we ever did the turkey." "Outlook Changed." Other letters said, "'The Chinese treat me very good Excellent doctors." And then in a letter written last Aug. 6: "My outlook on life has changed completely." Tenneson had been named a camp delegate for "a permanent peace committee." Mrs. Howe tired, but resigned and relaxed assured newsmen her trip was not a waste. "I would never have rested if I hadn't gone," she said.

"I believe now I've done everything I could." Reply to Alarm STAMFORD, CONN.
