For Better Understanding u

more than quarter century by the
International Institute.
The work of the institute is ut
terly altruistic. It's workers toll self
lessly with only one goal in mind; to
inculcate Americans S m into the
European national groups and coin
cidently to help them preserve their
own arts and folk activities.
TONIGHT in Detroit Music Hall
L the institute is holding an Inter
national Night. This event should be
supported by all of us and visited by
as many of our native American De-
troiters as can crowd into the au
ditorium.
Those who attend will be re-
warded by first rate dramatic and
musical entertainment including the
full Detroit Symphony Orchestra
and, more important, they will ac-
quire new and sympathetic knowl-
edge of the accomplishments of their
neighbors recently from other lands.
International Night might well
become a symbol of better under
standing between native and new De-
troiters, 1t should be regularly
scheduled annual occasion hence
forth.

best interests of his own country by
staying home.
AS far as domestic problems are
concerned, the President can rarely
AFFORD to leave home.
The latter fact applies with par
ticular force to President Truman
now.
The domestic affairs of the United
States are in sorry muddle now in
many respects, and in a dangerous
state in certain respects.
Despite what Mr.. Truman says
about the satisfactory progress OF
postwar reconversion, the American
people are compelled to look at the
contradicting facts.
Vast fields of American produc-
tive enterprise have been made stag
nant by strikes.
The entire field of automotive
industry and employment has been
made virtually imperative and un.
productive by strikes.
The gigantic steel industry is
apparently but one step away from
a strike which would make the
whole economy of the American ma
ton imperative and unproductive.
Accordingly, this would be a par
ticularly bad time for the President
to venture abroad for international
conferences which would be almost
certainly futile in their own scope,
and which would at the same time
deprive our own troubled nation of
the leadership the President is obll-
gated to give it.
President Truman is right and
wise in REFUSING to leave the
country at such a time, and for any
purpose.
American interests and problems
should come FIRST with the Presi-
dent of the United States at ALL
times - and they should have the
EXCLUSIVE attention of the Presi-
dent at this critical time of industrial
unrest and economic chaos.

IN AN industrial metropolis like
l. Detroit, composed of many racial
elements, it is essential for orderly
development of the community that
the groups of first generation resi-
dents come, as quickly and thor
oughly as possible, to know and
understand one another and gain
acquaintance with the customs OF
their new country.
Left to themselves this process of
acclimization would be long and
arduous.
Newcomers naturally are reticent.
The barriers between their old-coun
try habits and the brisk tempo of
American life loom up to them,
formidable and awesome.
VET, obviously, the sooner they
L grow to be good active American
citizens the sooner will they get
along we'll among us and the better
it must be for them and for all the
rest of us.
The best way to expedite their
absorption into the American scheme
is by guidance. Here in Detroit that
task of guidance has been performed
patiently and conscientiously for

DRESIDENT TRUMAN said
bluntly the other day, in response
to a press conference question, that
he sees no need for any more big
three" conferences, and that in fact
he is not in FAVOR of special con
ferences.
There will be general approval of
this position taken by the President
and general satisfaction over the
reasons given for it it,
The President is right on both
counts shat there is nothing to be
gained by MORE conferences, and
that little or nothing has been gained
by the so-called high level" confer
ences in the past.
On all the occasions when the
heads of the American, British and
Russian governments have met in
conference, the conclusions and
agreements reached have been only
vaguely announced at the time-and
almost Immediately thereafter have
become subject to confused and con
ficting Interpretation,
Each of these conferences has
purported to outline courses of joint
international action upon which the
three nations were agreed, and to
which they were bound.
But in each instance, the Rus
sian government has consistently
taken independent action whenever
its own purposes and interests were
best served thereby, and has often
taken CONTRARY action.
So the professed and proclaimed
accomplishments of the conferences
have been largely nullifed, the hopes
and expectations of the people
largely stultifed, and the time and
efforts of the conferees largely
wasted.
So far as improved international
relations are concerned, the Presi-
dent of the United States can more
faithfully and efficiently serve the

psychologist and speech teacher
are on hand, and suitable recon-
mendations for physical and oc-
cupational therapy are made. The
therapy work is done in co-opera-
ton with Children's and Gallinger
Hospitals. According to the recon-
mendat ton, these various specialists
work with the children in the DAYS
intervening between each clinic.
A Parents Association of Cerebral
Palsied Children has also been
formed. Any interested parent may
become member whether or not
his child is receiving care at the
clinic. Various speakers address
the group, discussing the cause of
the condition, its treatment and the
education, vocational guidance and
training that are necessary.
The clinic is but one phase of the
soelety's work. Provision for camp
ing facilities during the summer
months is made for crippled chill
dren. The majority of the children
vacation at Camp Greentop in Penn
sylvanla, but several other camps
are also functioning At Camp
Greentop the children are under
medical supervision, receive pSysio-
therapy, special diets and nursing
service, along with a recreational
program. There is a counsellor for
every six children. The minimum
camping period is eight weeks. Chill
dren who are not well enough to 60
to camp may go to The Pines, in
Berkeley Springs, W. Va, a year
round convalescent home.
The society works with various
agencies in the city who are con-
cerned with handicapped children.
Its services also include the renting
of wheel chairs to individuals, and
an information service dealing with
sources of aid to the crippled child.
An informative pamphlet about
cerebral palsy may be obtained by
writing to the society, or by calling
Executive 7450. Information con-
corning any of the society's services
may also be obtained in the same
manner.

CARE OF HANDS WHEN
DRY CLEANING.
Dorothy Dix Says

One of the strange things about
marriage is that husbands anc
wives are so seldom willing tc
learn anything from each other
They will take criticisms and cor
rections and suggestions from the
veriest stranger, but let either one
even so much as intimate that the
other one has a blemish and il
precipitates brawl that ends in
hurt feelings and tears and charges
that you don't love me-"
1t often happens that either the
husband or the wife has had a
higher education and better social
advantages than the other. A
man falls in love with a pretty
and attractive girl from the other
side of the tracks, where they have
never even heard of Emily Post
and marries her. A girl is swept
off of her feet and into marriage by
a keen young chap who has a bril-
liant mind and high ambitions, but
who had to leave school in the
fourth grade to help support the
family.
Each of these superior ones has Sc
much to give the other. Each be-
lieves that he or she can bridge
over the inequality between them
by a little love coaching, and both
get the surprise of their lives when
they find that their efforts to heir
are resented, and that playing with
INT would be safe occupation
compared to polishing up Friend
Wife's manners a little bit, or cor
recting Husbands grammar.
One would think that the CIR
whose background had given hel
no opportunity to acquire any c1
the social amenities would be glac
to sit at the feet of her husband
who knew his way around amone
the drawing rooms, and learn how

to dress, how to meet people, how
TO entertain, but only in rare cases
is she willing to let him teach he1
any OF the accomplishments she
does not possess. On the contrary
it generally infuriates her and turns
her green with jealousy of him and
what she calls his fine friends ,
Nor is the wife more successful, as
rule, when she tries to bring her
husband up to her cultural level
He calls it nagging and lets his mis-
| takes in. grammar fall where they
may.
But when husband and wife are
willing to learn from each other
marvellous are the results. Some
of the most elegant women you
ever meet were crude girls whose
husbands transformed them into
glasses of fashion and molds OF
form and models of graciousness
The wife of one of our presidents
taught him to read, and I know
more than one man who had prac-
tically no schooling in his youth
whose wife has turned him into a
gentleman and a scholar, as the
old phrase goes.
Perhaps the reason that husbands
and wives are so unwilling to learn
from each other is their vanity
They desire to shine in each others
eyes as models of perfection, ano
they cannot endure knowing that
their mates see their imperfections
This is a pity, for they not only
miss the assistance they would have
in correcting their faults, but lose
the closeness of the bond thai
exists between husbands and wives
who are mutually helpful.
But, for whatever reason, few
husbands and wives are ever willing
to learn from each other. Other
people can tell them, but not theil
MariaS or Johns.

The Young Idea

How much do you know about ce-
rebral palsy? Palsy" is condition
that interferes with the control of
the muscles. Cerebral palsy" re-
sulting from damage to certain por-
tions Of the brain, usually results in
muscular stimulation. This
stimulation evokes the "twitching,
the lack Of coordination, the con-
traction of the muscles, and other
reactions, that are frequently re-
ceived with an appalling lack OF un-
derstanding and sympathy by So
ciety.
To conclude that child with this
condition is feeble minded" be-
cause the obvious lack of co-ordina-
ton suggests this, is unfair. A child
so handicapped has been retarded,
but this is not necessarily an indica-
ton of low intelligence. Skilled
treatment and training produce
definite improvement among the
mentally normal cerebral palsied
children. However, the degree to
which the child's intelligence has
been impaired depends upon the

This condition may involve a
number OF handicaps-speech in
Movements, emotional upsets, hear
ing and sight difficulties, various
kinds and degrees of motor diff
culties. Their treatment requires
the cooperation of the physician,
the therapists, the public health
nurse, the psychologist, other spe-
cialists, and the parent-and not
the least of these is the parent.
1t is estimated that there were
10000 educable cerebral palsied
children under 16 years of age in
the United States in l943. The D. C.
Society for Crippled Children has
established a clinic for the benefit
OF the children in the city and vi
cinity who help make up that ma
tional total. This clinic is one of
a very few of its type in the coun-
try.
DR. Winthrop M. Phelps, a ma
tionally known specialist in this
field, conducts the clinic once a
month, from 10 am. to 4:30 pm.
The clinic is located in the Society's
home, at 1922 New Hampshire ave-
nue. NV. Children from one to 20
years are admitted, and best results
are predicted for children entered
before their fifth birthday. Ap-
proximately 25 cases are handled
during the day. Every attempt is
made to dispel a clinical atmos-
phere" the attendants are not
garbed in the traditional hospital
white, and the rooms themselves are
most unclinical.
The parents and the child's own
physician accompany the child to
the clinic. Verbal and written in
structions are given concerning the
care of the child in the home. A

If you've never tried a cleansing

you. One that we specially dote on
is water thin liquid that contains
oils which lubricate without clogging
the pores. A small quantity on a

of all the makeup, leaving your

better than creams for cleansing

the slight moisture it leaves can
serve as makeup foundation. This

women in town have been using the
stuff for years, cattily keeping the
secret of their lovely petal-like COM

it in England where it has been the
