of THURSDAY, MAY 27, 1948 TWENTY POUGHKEEPSIE NEW YORKER Dorothy Dis Letter Box correspondent anka: "What your opinion of the effect it would have on children growing up in home where the father never speaks to the mother because he his fallen In love with another woman?" Undoubtedly a very bad thing for children to be reared in a home where the atmosphere is poisoned by the disagreement of their father and mother, but how much they will be injured by it depends upon the wisdom and the strength of their mother. There are women who know their husbands to be unfaithful to them, whose hearts are broken by the knowledge that their husbands have ceased to care for them and whose prides are humbled into the dust the affronts. that are offered them, set who, for the sake of giving their children good home that their father can supply them and the advantages of education and soelal position that he could give them and they could not, somehow manAge to carry on and keep their homes bright and cheerful in spite of what they are personally suffering. In such cases the mother hides from the children their father's sin and weakness. Sometimes she even big enough to tench her children to respect their father, and love him, for very often a bad is good father.

But it takes a woman with the spirit of a martyr and the courage of a hero to do this. HALF SACRIFICES BAD, TOO women are big enough to make whole sacrifices. Most of them make half sacrifices. For the sake of their children they condone their husbands' infidelities to the extent of not leaving him and not breaking tip their homes. Then they revenge themselves indulging In neverending quarrels with him and by bitter and Jealotis recrimination Often a mother will even tell the children of the wrong their father has done her and make them fierce partisans of herself.

There can be no question of the harm that is done children who are brought up in a' home where there is perpetual strife and wrangling tween their parents, and where they are taught by precept and example to dishonor them both. Such family scenes sear a child's very soul in its infancy. They burn up all belief In everything good and fine. Untimely knowledge of passions for one too young to understand make It cynical and hard. Listening to the mother's charges against the father and the father's accusations against the mother slays all respect for both, and home comes to be a place, of torment and discord from which it escapes soon as it possibly can.

The effect of these unhappy homes upon the children is written. in the police records of our eities. Statistics show that from them come the great majority of the boys and girls, who go astray. (Released by The Bell Syndicate, Inc.) Eleanor Roose My Day NEW YORK- Arabs have rejected the United Nations appeal for cense-fire in Palestine. This being the case, it seems to me quite clear that they have become aggressors against the Jews.

I saw the other day that the British had declared their intention under their treaty obligations, to send arms to the Arabs until the United Nations should declare the Arabs aggressors. it that is the case, it would: seem that our embargo on shipping arms to the Near -East would help the Arabs and doom the Jews to sure defeat, for men without proper equipment cannot successfully oppose men with modern war equipment. I think the Arabs ought to weigh very carefully their next step, for it seems to me inevitable that sanctions will be imposed upon them and that our embargo on arms to the Jews will be lifted. As one watchen the efforts to work through the United Nations, one is more and more convinced that without an army the organisation 15 unable to enforce its decisions and that, with or without atomic control. it had better get an army constituted with such mechanisms as the world now knows about.

That might help the United Nations at least to gain some attention from groups such as the Arab League when a request is made. The British stand in all this seems difficult to understand. However, one thing. in the whole confused picture, da clear. There is unity and singleminded purpose among the Jewish people.

Their willingness to sacrifice for the land they have created of the desert is curiously reminiscent of all other pioneer movements where people have tried to establish themselves in new places and to flee oppression and interference elsewhere. The vast majority of Jews in Palestine seem to have this spirit. NOW THAT the primaries in Orecon are over, I think it is time to mention our reactions to the argumenta that came out of the mouths of the campaigning Republican candidates. I for one became more and more convinced that the Mundt Bill. is a bad bill.

It might help to repress few. Communists but, at the same time, it might make it impossible to create a third party at some future time and might prevent such a party from functioning. Even the Republican or the Democratic party might be outlawed if there was desire to do so. I am beginning to feel that repress sive measures that arise out of fear are not the proper motivation for legislative action. It might be well for us to clarity our thinking on democracy, and to make sure that everything that takes place fn communities conforms to the best interesta of the citizens as a whole, and is tree of any tinge of Fascism.

Communism or any other totalitarianiam. To start trying to keep down the free expression of thought is to follow the very course which We condemn in totalitarian governments. I hope the Senate will have enough faith in the people of the United States to bury the Mundt Bill and to trust to the ability of our citizens to defend democracy whenever they find it jeopardized.

They forth secret societies, little groups that get together in corner of the school yard and whisper to each other, ail the time regarding those who are excluded out of the corners of their eyes. They want this exclusiveness to be envied. The nttle girls' clubs are likely to end In that feeling of and the special feeling of longing that attaches to it.

After time, however, they forget about and 10 does not appear 80 strongly again until they are of high school age and form sororities- -which again mean little beyond the feeling of importance based on ness. The boys dot the same thing, but they are likely to be more active about it. They will build hut or And some secluded corner of a barnof vacant building for their meetings, which will be mostly noise. If they can manage it, they will have Are and do some cooking which they will try to eat. They're having a Ane time- -just belonging.

All children must have this feeling they are to grow happily and healthily in body and mind. longing of the greatest importance to mental health. The child who cannot have that feeling, who feels himself. closed out and aione, is likely to suffer and reflect that suffering in his failure to either work or play as healthy children should. Thoughtful teachers and parents encourage their charges to belong to some good organization like the Boy Scouts or the Campfire Girls, These associations are under good leadership, and they offer the activities and the training in them that all children need and should have.

The children should be to belong to one of them; and the leaders of such clubs should be encouraged, helped and thanked by thera and mothers and all good citizens. In these days of confusion, the children are in danger of losing their way, and special attention should be given them to see that there are ways in 'which they can belong and enjoy belonging. We should lay special stress on the fun, the good fellowship, the prestige of belonging to the Boy Scouts or the Campfire Girls, These clubs by whatever name they may be -known-are valuable educational and character- -molding forces, and merit the support of the community.
