Treat Child's
MiSbehaviOr
Correctly
Give Him Program
Of Responsible
Routine Work
By A ngelo Patri

When child goes wrong we look
for the cause. Once found, we ex-
pect to remedy it and so change the
behavior that was wrong into what
is better. We have psychologists
and guidance teachers and spe-
cialists to help with this.
My experience with many children
and their parents has disclosed one
phase of this situation that is dis
ouieting. The cause is discovered.
The parents are told that this and
that is the reason for their child's
untoward behavior And there the
matter rests. Or, which is just as
ineffective, the expert says, I'd like
to see this child once a week, or
every 10 days, for the next three
years"
Now that child has a set habit
of behavior that is doing him harm
and annoying his teachers and his
family. When he hears that he will
be cured in three years he says to
himself, Il can be like this for three
years and nobody can say word
about it. The doctor says So" And
he proceeds to set his bad habits
upon himself more firmly than ever.
When the cause of a child's mis-
behavior is traced to some psyche
logical situation or condition, stating
the reason isn't going to change
things. Talking to the child over
q period of years is too lengthy a
process because during that time
the child continues to grow and his
habits keep setting Something must
be done to change the child's at
titudes and consequently his habits.
Don't stand by helpless. This
child who is running away because
his father died and his mother
married again; this one who is
the youngest child and feels in
ferior to the others: this one who
is the oldest and feels himself be-
ing set aside for the youngest;
this one who is slow and feels i'll
used because his companions are
quicker, on through the list we so
frequently scan these dayS-an need

ment today.

and the youngest of the family,
all the too slow ones, all the i'll
favored ones in life began wreck
ing their lives and making other
folks lives miserable, what world
this would be. The war would be
nothing compared with it. The
truth is that children can and do
adjust themselves to their lives,
and when they don't they have to
be helped to do so and that right !

are plus signs for Margie.
Everybody gets certain amount of
trouble-illnesses, disappointments
in jobs or in school, friction with the

minor accidents. Naturally, nobody
is pleased by these misfortunes, but
some people take them lot harder

Armed Merchantmen
TdBh 5es|'Kithin

Secretary Admits
Shortage Of Short-Ronge
Anti-Aircroft Guns
By CLAUDE A. MAHONEY.

The Navy expects to have armed
merchantmen plying the sea lanes
of the world within a week or 10
days, Secretary Knox said today.
The Secretary told a press con-
ference it probably would take three
or four months to arm all the 1900
ships available but that work would
be pressed as fast as the ships could
be spared from their runs.
He also announced it was the
belief that American ships. under
Panamanian register would be
brought back to fly the stars and
stripes and to carry American guns
on their decks, now that the amend
ed neutrality law permitted it.
Anti-Aircraft Gun Shortage.
Mr.. Knox said he did not know
how many of those ships there were
but accepted a figure suggested by
reporters at the conference that the
total was about 40.
The only delay in armlng the ships
may be due to what Secretary Knox
referred to as a pinch in short
range anti-aircraft guns. However
he said, guns of this type are COM
ing in now, and he predicted that
they would be available as needed
From II to 18 men will be in each
gun crew, Mr.. Knox said.
Pressed for comment on state
ment attributed to Senator Wheeler,
Democrat, of Montana, that Ameri-
can naval vessels were conveying
merchant ships all the way to
Europe before the Neutrality Act
was amended, Secretary Knox said,
That's a perfectly untrue state
ment."
