of their rights.
TOO many of us beat our breasts
about our rights and forget that
they imply equal obligations, the
speaker continued. He warned
that the number of wounded and
the permanently manned will con-
tinue to increase.
Mr.. McCahill said that the basis
for making good business out of
impaired workers is to make GER
tain that the worker and the job
are mutually compatible so that
they unite to produce for the
benefit of the employer and the
community.
There are no financial yard
sticks to measure the differences
between self-reliant citizen
carrying his own responsibilities
and depressed citizen dependent
upon charity" Mr.. McCahill de-
clared. Those differences, he ex-
planned, mean more than dollars
and cents in terms of happiness,
good citizenship, and social use

Dorothy
Dix

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I am
a boy of 18, going to college away
from home. I have a fine father
and mother and a brother of 20.
My father has worked hard and
has been fairly successful. He
has been very good to us, but he
has been so busy he has not had
time to talk with my brother and
myself about our problems. I
long to conflde in him, but when
I try to talk to him I go dumb.
Now I want to talk over the girl
proposition with him. He thinks
I am too young to go steady with
a girl and that I should go with
lots of girls and have lots of
friends. He says that I have
plenty of time before I should
think seriously about girls. But
both my brother and I disagree
with him on that point. How can
I get close enough to my father
to tell him anything I want to?
A CONSTANT READER.
Answer. I doubt if children ever
really get to know their fathers
well enough to talk freely to them
unless they begin their acquaint-
anceship when they are babes. If
the father has never chummed
up with his boy in childhood, a
wall of reserve that neither can
break down is built up between
them. This is a great misfortune
to both, for the father is nearly
always more anxious for the boys
confidence than the boy is to give
it, but he is as paralyzed when it
comes to approaching the boy as
the boy is when he tries to make
advances to him.
1t is literally true that there
are thousands of children whose
only speaking acquaintance with
their fathers consists in asking
for something. They have never
sat down and had a talk with
their father in their lives. They
have no idea of what father thinks
about anything on earth. 1t would
amaze them beyond measure if
they were told that father would
be pleased to death If they would
show him the slightest sign of af-
fection; that they would feel
more honored if Johnny and Susie
would give him their confidence
than he would with an audience
with the President. No doubt your
father feels this way about you.
I urge you to take your courage
in both hands and tell him just
exactly what you have written me.
I'll bet that he will meet you more
than halfway, and, after you have
broken the ice, you will find that
he is the most sympathetic and
understanding person in the world
to you. a =.
His advice to you and your
brother about girls is the very es-
sence of wisdom. At 18 you are
too young to know what real love
is. 1t is just a passing fancy that
you will get over and you will be
so glad if you are not messed up
in any entangling alliance.

Zonto Club Hears Plea for Jobs
For Veterans Disabled in Korea

Regardless of the overtones of
national emergency in the produc-
tion line and regardless of self
interest, simple justice is even a
more compelling reason for en-
ploying disabled veterans of the
Korean conflict, members of the
Zonta Club were told yesterday.
THE world in which we live to-
day, and for many years to come,
Is going to offer much blood, sweat
and tears to people who stand up
against the tyranny Of a Goddess
Communism as well as for those
who are slowly ground beneath
the heel of a despotic regime which
cares nothing about humanity and
less about the handicapped" Will
liam P. McCahill, executive Secre-
tary Of the Presidents Committee
On National Employ the Physically
Handicapped Week. declared at a
luncheon meeting of the club held
at the University Women's Club.
I'VE boast of full employment
and tight labor market" Mr..
McCahill declared. "Yet as coun-
try" he said, I'VE keep on the
sidelines a known half million of
trained and competent men and
women who bear the tag 'handi-
capped" He added that during
the war such a waste of man
power would have been treason
and today it is bad business. in

Mr.. McCahill urged a close ex-

2 CLEVER GIRLS IN COMEDY BILL
 AT 10TH CENTURY

A picture that promises plenty of laughter for all the family is due tonight at the 20th Century The atre for three day run. It is Para mounts romantic comedy, The 'Sainted' Sisters" which co-star Veronica Lake, Joan Caulfield and Barry Fitzgerald and features Will liam Demarest, George Reeves and Beulah Bondi.
 The story concerns the hilarious adventures of a couple of beautiful, swindling sisters, played by Veronica and Joan. Enroute to Canada with $25,00 of a rich suckers money, they are forced to stop off in a little New England town, where they make the mistake of seeking shelter in the home of Barry Fitzgerald.
 Fitzgerald, a philosophical tomb stone sculptor, gets wind of their booty and how they came by 1t. He proceeds to teach the girls some things about life they never Knew before and, according to all reports, they are not only highly original lessons, but hilariously funny as well.
 George Reeves. whose last fea- ture picture before he went into the Army was So Proudly We Hail, returns to portray the confused young man in love with both sis terS.
 William Demarest, in the top fea- tured role. portrays clustering heart of-gold sheriff who pretends to have a broken leg rather than foreclose the mortgages held by Beulah Bondi. The latter plays the richest-and meanest woman in town, who learns a lesson from the "sainted" sisters.

S0R0pTIMI5T CLUB
 TOLD ABOUT COSTA
 RIGA BY MRS. MILLER

Speaking before 25 members ana guests of the Soroptimist club at its regular weekly luncheon meet ing in the Baranof Hotel Terrace Room Friday, Mrs. Inga s. Miller told briefly of Costa Rica. Prior to her arrival in Juneau last year as an employee of the Bureau oi Public Roads, she spent five years in the Central American country She was stationed at San Jose where she also was employed With the Bureau of Public Roads which was engaged on work for the Pan American highway.
 The long highway, she comment ed, will connect Alaska with the lower attitudes of South America by automobile routes when com pleted.
 Speaking of the women of Costa Rica, she said they were struggling for emancipation from ancient laws which deny them civil rights and in 1947 they summoned a courage ous group and marched on the Pre- sident's palace in protest. There they stationed themselves from 1 p. m. until midnight the next day, singing the national anthem at five-minute intervals throughout the hours.
 Refusing orders to disperse, they were finally fired upon, Mrs. Miller said, with the result that some were killed and others injured, and the emancipation movement could count no victory won at that point.
 Miss Gertrude Wetzel, vice pre- sident of the club, acted as presid- ing officer at Tuesdays meeting in the absence of President Alice Thorne.
 Guests at the meeting included Lulu Davis of General Services Administration, Pauline Whitaker of the U. s. Employment Service and Vera Knickerbocker and Helen Johnson of the Alaska Depart ment of Health.
