NON -5kED5 BUILD WAR CHEST TO TILT
 WITH CAB RULING

MIAMI, Fla, June 9-tR-A na- tional organization of non-sched- uled air lines with a $15,000 war chest pledged by 10 charter mem- bers was started here last night.
 The operators organized "The h. dependent Non-S Subsidized Air Car riers Association" and outlined a plan to form a national organiza- ton and have a lobby in Washing ton.
 Phillip Mann, Secretary -Treasur- CT of American Air Transport, who presided at the meeting, said the current Civil Aeronautics Board policy means we'll all be out of business in six months"
 He said the thing that hurts, is a CAB ruling year ago that all non-chartered air lines must get individual exemptions from ob- taining operating certificates re- quired of scheduled lines. Until that time, non-scheduled lines were granted mass exemptions.
 Mann said that of 80 carris.s that have applied for exemptions since the rule went into effect, the CAB has acted on only 1o, and denied exemptions to Il of them.
 The CAB also announced that carrier liEes will be limited to three instead of eight flights a month between two points.
 At the meeting last night were representatives of American Air Transport, Peninsular Air Trans port, Modern Air Transport, and Continental Charter

Every mother must get away
from her own child once in a
while. There are too many in the
position of Mrs. c., who writes
me:
ut seems to me I'm tired and
irritable all the time because Of
my two children, four years old
and Is months respectively. If it
isn't one of them that is making
demands of me, it's the other. If
one sleeps, the other is sure to
stay awake! We can't afford baby
sitters and it's almost impossible
to get one here, anyhow. What
does a mother in my position do to
keep from becoming desperate?"
Too often she does nothing,
Mrs. G.-that's just the trouble!
Most mothers face the same
problem and it is hard to get
them out of the rut. Their prob
lem is somewhat like that of the
aged-there are really many
things for them to do, but they
won't get out and do anything.
You should plan carefully, with
your husbands help, to get a
little break. Here are some posi-
bilities to consider:

woman with young children and
make a partnership deal. Each
will take all the children one
afternoon a week, while the other
has an afternoon off. Too many
mothers are over conscientious
and feel that their children should
not be left with any one else.
2. You can get your husband to
stay with the children one evening
"a week while you visit your
friends and relatives-anything to
get out of the house!
8. You and your husband can
go out occasionally in the eve
ming to play cards or visit friends,
and take the children along, let
ting them sleep In the friends
bedroom until it's time to go home
4. You can take the children out
for a picnic lunch occasionally, in
the park or In the country-you
won't get away from them in this
case, but it will break the monot-
|ony for you. VIZ
S. Don't hesitate to invite
friends to your home in the eve
ming. putting your children to bed
before the visitors arrive. Some
times what mother really needs
is to feel that she is not cut off
from normal social life.
