Women’s liberation
causes emotional
problems for many
United Press International
WASHINGTON — A female
psychiatrist says the liberation of
women during the past few years
has created new emotional prob
lems in work, sexual and family set
tings as well as expanded oppor
tunities.
“There is much evidence that the
new freedoms have brought new
anxieties,” Dr. Ruth Moulton said
in a report in the January issue of
the American Journal of Psychiatry.
She said problems were inevita
ble because rapid cultural change
disturbs the established psychologi
cal equilibrium.
“The unconscious lags behind,
making emotional readjustment dif
ficult. Individual ego strength and
flexibility are put to the test.”
Dr. Moulton, assistant clinical
professor of psychiatry at Columbia
University, said she found remark
able changes in the symptoms of
women patients she saw between
1953 and 1956 and between 1973 and
1976.
The problems of the ‘50s group
revolved around sex, marriage and
child rearing. Sexual problems were
paramount with many patients suf
fering from various degrees of frigid
ity.

Dr. Moulton said problems of this
kind were rarely encountered in the
‘70s. The attitudes of the women
she studied were much freer and,
although divorce was more com
mon, sex played a much less impor
tant role in marital conflicts.
She said she saw four major
classes of problems in women she
treated in the past few years:
— Re-entry anxiety. The process
of a long-homebound woman re
turning to work in the outer world
required tremendous effort on the
part of many patients.
“They had dropped out of the job
market or college because of early
marriages, fears about achieving in
dependence or deep convictions of
inadequacy. ,
— Performance anxiety. Some j
patients had difficulty in asserting
themselves, as when they were
called on to speak in public. Dr^
Moulton said some wdmen experi
ence such overwhelming anxiety
that they feel faint and are forced to
leave the room.
— Self-assertion anxiety. Dr.
Moulton said it often is u

AUSTIN — A proposal to lower
taxes for agricultural property near
rural areas would increase school
district taxes for many urban resi
dents, one senator says.
“This ain’t no time to be repealing
taxes and giving special privileges to
certain people, said Sen. Oscar
Mauzy, D-Dallas.
Mauzy said the proposal by Sen.
Tom Creighton, D-Mineral Wells,
would force owners of nonagricul-
tural land in many urban school dis
tricts to pay higher taxes.
Mauzy and other opponents yes
terday blocked Senate consideration
of the measure to permit tax as
sessments on farm, ranch and
timber lands based on the produc
tivity of the property.
Creighton argued unsuccessfully
that agricultural producers are
being driven out of business by
taxes based on land’s market value.
“Agricultural lands are being sold
simply because they cannot make
enough money to pay the taxes,”
Creighton said. “What we are trying
to do is keep agricultural land in the
production of food and fiber.’
Creighton said the measure
would increase taxes paid by farm
ers and ranchers in many rural areas,
but would provide tax relief for ag
ricultural landowners on the out
skirts of cities where land prices are
spiraling.
Sen. Lloyd Doggett, D-Austin,
said Creighton’s proposal would give
tax breaks to corporations as well as
individuals owning agricultural land.
Senators voted 24-6 to debate the
proposal — one vote short of the
four-fifths majority needed to con
sider a bill during the first 60 days of
a legislative session.
The Senate approved and sent to
the House bills to expand invest
ment opportunities for insurance
companies, exempt charity auctions
from sales taxes and prohibit munic
ipal utilities from condemning land
for lignite.
The Senate approved 25-6 and
24-7 bills by Sen. O. H. Harris,'
R-Dallas, to elitniriate certain re
strictions on life-insurance company
investents in corporate sepurities
and oil royalties.
Mauzy complained the bills qpuld
lead to inside dealing between
companies.
Sen. Max Sherman, D-Amarillo,
won 30-1 passage of his bill
exempt from sales taxes merchan
dise sold at once-a-year auctions
conducted by religious', charitable
or educational groups.
The restriction on utility com
panies’ power to condemn land was
approved 29-2. Sen. William T.
Moore, D-Bryan, said representa
tives of the Municipal Power Pool
had threatened to condemn the land
of Grimes County landowners who
balked at prices offered for their
coal.
Interest in breakfast needs for kids
may create morning meal in Consol
Is there a need for serving break
fast at school? The A&M Consoli
dated School District is trying to find
out.
Ann Barton, Food Services Direc
tor, at A&M Consolidated is working
with principals in the Consolidated
schools to determine if there is
enough interest in a breakfast pro
gram in this school district.
“The principals feel there’s not as
much need for one here as in, say,
Bryan,” Barton said. “But if enough
parents express the need (for a
breakfast serving) we’ll develop a
program.
