when is the best time 10 tell
1 child his dad is not his real
ather7" That is one OF the most
important problems faced by par
ents who are raising a child
through adoption. One wonders
whether TO conceal the truth. tell
he child he is adopted as early as
possible, or later in life.
Such a problem comes before
he WAR PROBLEM CLINIC to-
lay and is ably answered by Mrs.
Irene z. Murphy, family and child
welfare secretary OF the Council
~ Social Agencies. and one Of the
y members Of the WAR PROB
LEM CLINIC PANEL.

IT'S Problem 10 Her
War Problem Clinic;

War Problem Clinic;
This is a problem that has wor-
RED me a great deal and probably
concerns many mothers When Is
he best time TO tell a child his
lad is not his real father. but
adopted him? This little boy is
) years old now, and l divorced
MS father and remarked when he
VaS-a- hahy-His- present dad
egally adopted him and had his
name changed 10 ours.
MRS. A. r, {.
Dear Mrs. A. ". C.:
May / urge you TO start men
tioning the fact that your son
IL adopted rs early as possible.
Mention IL as part of your nor
NAL, casual family conversation
80 that he can grow up with
the open and family knowledge
Of IL at all times.
ANY other method leads only
20 a severe and brutal shock To
him later In life. The later he
learns the truth the more
trouble he will have in adjust
Ing 70 IL.
II you try To conceal the
truth you will always have to
be ION guard" TO keep others
from speaking of IL. changing
the subject, giving high signs,
or giving false answers TO ques-
tons. In other words, your son
win soon learn that you are
frantically distorting some inn
pOrtant fact about his life. Your
attitude will reveal IL even If
your words do not.
Equally disastrous to chill
dren IL the method of waiting
until they are half grown and
then unloading all the facts In
o stiff, strained interview. From
the case histories OF children
where this has been done, we
find that children are thrown
into months. and sometimes
years, of bewilderment trying
TO reweave a suddenly learned
fact back into all Of the previ-
Gus years of their life.
II other parents read this
letter, may 1 recommend some
books on this subject in the
social science department of the

sizable minority of our people have
less purchasing power than before
the war, rising prices and rising
wages have given the majority of
our people a vastly greater pur-
chasing power than they have ever
before enjoyed and at time when
we have not the manpower to pro-
duce the goods which they would
like to buy.
Surplus Spending Money
Complicates Price Control.
Allowing for the present higher
taxes and for normal savings, our
people have nearly 20 billion more
to spend year for goods and serv-
ices than there are goods and serv-
ices available for them to buy. 1t
is hard to control prices, enforce ra-
tioning and to stamp out black mar
kets when people have SO much sur
plus spending money.
For our own protection we must
drain off by taxation or freeze by
enforced savings that excess pur-
chasing power. If we do not, we
will probably try to outbid one an
other to get the goods and services
we want. If that happens we will
not get more, but we will pay more,
and we will fird that the money we
have put into insurance policies and
into savings accounts is worth less
and the dollars we have earned will
buy less.
We have spent too much time
arguing how much OF our past taxes
should be forgiven in order to get
on a pay-as-you-go basis, instead OF
getting down to the grim business
OF imposing the higher taxes which
total war requires. We cannot ask
our soldiers to do our fighting and
also to pay our taxes when they
return from the battlefelds. War
taxation should not become a pawn
in political game. 1t is a stern
duty to be met by every citizen in
accordance with his capacity to pay
In every war there are noisy
minorities engaged in intrigues and
cabals to belittle the war effort of
the Nation both on the home and
fighting fronts. During the Revolu-
ton even in the Continental Con-
gress there were those who were
constantly finding fault with Gen.
Washington and his conduct of the
war.
Recalls Outcry in Congress
Against Lincoln's "Ineptitude."
In the War eBtWeen the States
there were those even in the Con-
gress who were continually mutter-

the blundering and ineptitude of
President Lincoln, 1t was said that
they had lost the confidence of their

CHICAGO, Aug. i7.--william

the subject Of labor unity.
The subject did not ven come
up 1T the summer meeting Of the

In answer to press conference
questions, Mr.. Green said, II don't
think labor unity within the next
six months Is within the realm Of
possibility"
Asked to look beyond . month
period. Mr.. Green appeared pessim-
istic and said. before organic unity
can be achieved lot Of difIiculties
have to be overcome" He added,
however, that If the CIO decided
to accept . proposal made by the
AFL In 1888 some headwAy might
be gained. That proposal provided
for the return Of the former ALL
unions and the adjustment Of juris-
dictional difhculties.
He conceded that would not solve
the question of the new unions
formed by the CIO. such as the
United Steel Workers, United Auto
Workers and others. Those, he
said. would have to be dealt with
separately under the 1898 peace
plan.
Joseph A. Padway. AFL counsel.
reported to the council that court
tests of union regulatory legislation
had been started In Colorado, Texas,
Iadho. Alabama and Kansas, and
that some Of the proceedings soon

States. The legislation, which the
Federation is testing was enacted
by Legislatures in the last year or
two. Mr.. Green said the State at
torney general departments were
cooperating in the tests.

the war effort. In the fall of 1914
there will be national election.
Then there must be political dis

better. The people of America are
not concerned about party advan-
