TactfuI Mothers

TO A MOTHER, the most inn

have her child love her. 1t is
not enough that she should love
her child. There is no reason
why m o I her and daughter
shouldn't be as close as twins;
they can be if the mother Is
tactful, wise, does not withhold
affection and condolences.
The chief complaint of moth
ers is that their daughters aren't
neat and orderly. That is fail
ing of youth. A good example
should be set in the home that
should be in apple pie order.

Measure Would
Alter Plan of
Highway Patrol

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 90. OP)-
A bill giving control over the Cali
fornia High Patrol to the director
of motor vehicles was introduced
late Saturday by Senator Jerrold
l.. Seawen lR.5 Roseville.
The patrol now operates as an
INDEPENDENT state agency.
Under the Seawell bill, the mo-
tor vehicles director would deter
mine efficiency ratings of patrol
men, assign personnel and take
over authority now held by the
patrol chief. The chief would func-
ton as the top officer of the patrol,
which would become a division of
the motor vehicles department.
Responsibility for the division of
registration also would be transfer
red to the director, Seawell said.
Seawell is chairman of a senate
interim committee which has con-
Quoted an investigation of the mo-
tor vehicles department..
