Little Change in

Up Operations Keep
Market Active

b the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 1.-THE
bond market, after a two weeks
sprint that carried some corporate
issues to the highest levels in 18
months or longer, spun through this
mornings short tWo-hour trading
session with values essentially un-
changed.
1t could hardly be said that trad
ers, after fortnight of rising prices,
sat down today to catch their breath,
for dealings at $5,517,5OO. face value,
were at the fastest rate for any Sat-
urday since December 81 last.
But the session was regarded gen.
orally as one of evening up of ac-
counts, with switching OF investment
positions here and there. Further
climbing power was absent.
United States Governments ended
on a steady note, with Treasury is
sues 632 of a point higher to
5/32 lower. Weekend slackening
of purchases by banks and other
financial institutions was regarded
as prime factor in slightly easier
prices for some maturities.
Chilean issues tilted between I
and points higher, joining rising
Brazilian bonds in foreign dollar
bond trading interest Rumors were
heard in the financial sector that
United States trade credit for Chile,
similar to that arranged this past
week for Brazil, was in the making.
Chile Is of A. IS of 81 (February)
and IS of '63 each closed at 49,,
up 112. Brazil IS of Al at 27s4 were

issues recorded new gains of frac-

Divorce Need Not
 Handicap Children
Forethought and Care By Parents Involved Needed;
 Separation Can Be Accepted PainIessy

Contrary to general opinion, chil- dren of divorced parents suffer very little disadvantage, opines Lisa Gre- nelle, writing in Coronet magazine this month. Of course, 1t goes without saying that children of happy, congenial, wholely united parents are-other things being equal--the more fortunate. But children of divorce need not be, and certainly need not remain, at dis advantage. They need not grow up handicapped, maladjusted, unhappy Children, like adults, can generally survive loss or separation, painful though these things may be at the time. It is only the destruction of their young ideals. of their basic be- liefs, that is likely to prove truly disastrous. It Is only the entrance too early into their lives of conflict ing and divided royalties which IS likely to prove too crushing a bur- den.
 For 1t isn't so much in the actual physical presence of his parents that a child's confidence and sense of security rests, but in those par ent's attitudes-toward life, toward them, toward each other-whether they are divorced or married. And when this attitude is filled with vernon, it installs a permanent dis trust of marriage and of the op- posite sex into the children. Most divorced parents, realizing this, de- eide to make it up to the children, and overdo it-spoilng the child with pity and indulgence.
 What, then, can be done to pro-

tect children from divorce. The ar- ticle in Coronet offers some con- structive advice along this line, summarizing it as follows
 Divorce is a pity-always. Or rather, the failure of any marriage is pity. But at least, if you've been big enough and wise enough and brave enough not to destroy your child's ideals or to divide his loyal ties in any way-then perhaps you haven't hurt him too much. If, though, divorced, you and your 'Ex' continue to work together as par- ents, backing each others judgments, never permitting the child to play one against the other. then you haven't left the child without con- structive guidance. If you have re- trained from trying to make up to the child for the normal home he has lost. from indulging and over whelming him with pity and sym- pathy, then the divorce has not and vii lnot demoralize or weaken char acter.
 And if you have taken care not to let your bitterness and the fail- ure of your marriage influence him against the opposite sex, then at least you can comfort yourself with the thought that your action has not put your child at too much of a disadvantage - that 1t has not made him cynic or destroyed his chance of a happy marriage"
 Tn other words, concludes the article, in Coronet, divorce can be allowed to ruin the life of a child, but 1t can as easily be made to run smoothly and be accepted painlessly, merely by using a little forethought and care. It all rests with the par ents nvolved-with youl
