1t seems to be part of the pattern
and it is not sold to teenagers you
know"
1t would require the wisdom of
Solomon to strike a balance between
the strong arm methods of grand
mothers day and the hne-of-least-
resistance pattern too often followed
by present day parents.
The mother of a young girl said to
the writer recently: Il am the most
unpopular mother in our neighbor-
hood, because try to keep track of
my 8-year-old. She is not allowed
to attend just any movie and at no
time is she allowed to come home
alone at night.
Neither is she permitted to just
disappear when the notion to go to
the park to play seizes the group,
most of whom are allowed to do this
without consulting their mothers.
My child feels conspicuous and diff
ferent and at times abused"
What Is the Answer?
No mother can shut her children
away from the world nor deny them
the pleasures which are the accepted
way of life among young people
these days. 1t would only defeat her
purpose in the end to force this is
sue.
Neither can she watch them and
spy on their activities or appear criti-
cal and suspicious The days of horse
whipping are past and chaining to
the bed-post is considered little
heavy handed. What then, is the
answer and who knows it?
Calm, dispassionate thinking
would bring one the conclusion of
the middle -the-road type of train
ing and discipline. 1t is true that
boys and girls from nice homes have
gone badly astray and will again,
but for the most part home influence
is the answer.
A home where parents are con-
genial and well balanced, where
friends of the children are made well
come, where active sports and games
and projects are encouraged and
above ala home where definite
responsibilities are assigned to each
child at an early age and followed
up so that they become fixed habit
of living; that home will run small
risk of sending out into the world
poorly adjusted children.
Influence Bevoud Home
Parents must go farther than that;
their influence must be extended be-
yond the home. Wholesome camp
life, All clubs, ball teams and all
sorts of competitive athletics for both
boys and girls must be encouraged
Parents must work hand in hand
with these organizations and with
the churches.
The hardest job these leaders have
is to get parents interested to the
extent that they will pitch in anc
help make these things work out
1t makes busy and at times hectic
life but it constitutes the present day
form of discipline.
The main idea is to keep young
people so busily interested in whole
some activities that the urge to in
vestigate the unwholesome kind il
diverted through the critical years
The rest will take care of itself.
Young People Smart
And-young people are smart
They know where they are goini

BOW TAKES UP
 FIGHT AGAINST
 INT. SECRETARY

W&SHINGTON- Frank T. Bow chief aide to Senator SchOeppel (R- Kansl. adopted as his own today the Senator's charges that Secre- tarv of the Interior Chapman has Ia personal alliance with Com munist Russia. He challenged Chapman to sue him.
 Bow told the Senate Interior Committee. which is investigating the accusations, that he intends to voice them publicly where Chap man is at liberty to sue him.
 Chapman has bitterly denied the charges which schoeppel made in a Senate speech. Chapman told the committee last week he dares the Senator Or any other man to make such charges at some forum where they would not enjoy Con gressional or other immunity from lawsuit.
 Schoeppel said in a speech that Interior Secretary Chapman has personal alliance with the view of Communist Russia. an that Chapman and others active in the flight for Alaska statehood hired "an agent of the Kremlin" as a publicity man to help them. He called publicity man Randolph Eel tus a Kremhn agent on the ground that Feltus once did public rela- tions work also for the Polish gov ernment.
 These and other accusations were denounced point by point in testi- mony by Chapman and others whom Schoeppel had named. in cluding Feltus.
 Since then, Sehoeppel has said his words about Chapman may have been too strong. He denied later that he had intended to raise any question of the loyalty of AL askan officials.
 Material From Arnold
 Frank Bow admitted under oath that he obtained much of his ma terial against Chapman and the AL, askan statehood committee from W. c. Arnold of the Alaska Salmon Industry, Inc, in Seattle.
 Bow was asked if at any time during the preparation of his mat erial he had been in communica- ton with W C. Arnold. managing director of ASI, described by Sem ator 0'Mahoney as foe of state hood for Alaska.
 Bow said he had, but that the eommunications dealt with interior department material and had no direct connection" with the Alas kan statehood question.

the House Appropriations Com
mittee was making plans to start
work this week on a follow-up
supplemental bill. That bill is ex-
petced to include the $3.50 million
President Truman requested Fri
day to expand atomic energy
plants. Any other last-minute
emergency items also will go into
that bill.
The Senate committee boosted
the national defense section of the
bill by $685.. .879, ,521, to a new total
of $14.680,366,82 for all of the
armed services.
S4.5 Billion for Foreign Aid.
To help other countries co-ope-
rating with the United States in
world affairs, the Senate COM
mittee allowed $4,522.158,729 for
economic and military aid, which
was not in the House bill.
Although the bill as a whole is
more than IS billion above the
total of $29,494,340,164 it car
ried when it passed the House
May 10. the bulk of the increase
is accounted for in the foreign
aid program, which would have
been in the House bill had the
enabling acts been passed at that
time.
When foreign aid is excluded,
the Senate increases in House
figures amount to about $670 mil
lion, and of this nearly half is
in the defense establishment. The
biggest Senate increase for de-
fense was inclusion of a 1898, 1885,
006 military public works pro-
gram.
Chairman Mcclellan of the Ap-
propriations Committee plans to
start floor debate on the bill in
the Senate Tuesday, and hopes to
pass it by the end of the week.
Quick Settlement Expected.
1t will then go to joint House
Senate conference committee for
settlement of differences. Since
no conference committee has ever
attempted to deal with the entire
budget as one package, no one
can forecast accurately how long
it will take to get a final agree
ment.
The Korean crisis is likely to
help produce a quick settlement
