His next hurdle likely would be

in '28 and who voted for Franklin
D. Roosevelt in '32 and 49," And
while that indicates independence

Former President Herbert Hoov-

leader in the senate, not only ques-
toned the Presidents authority in

TOuun 80
New COP Candidate
IN WASHINGTON


RECENTLY this reporter sat in a
- lush, walnut-panelled office high
in Chicago's towering Board of
Trade building and listened with
some amazement to the political
and economic announcements of
one of the oracles of that part of
industry which is particularly al
lied with agriculture.
This man, tall, lanky pipe
smoker who is listed by the treas
ury department as among the first
10 in the nation in earned income,
spoke with pontifical pessimism
about the devalued dollar; with
fear concerning the worth of his
insurance policies and even of his
government bonds; with some
heated antagonism concerning la
Dor and some labor leaders and
unions. He recalled with satisfac-
ton how some years ago he had
settled a strike which affected
some of his industrial plants by
removing the cause" He just
took a trip around the world.
And while this mans philosophy
and conclusions were directly at
variance with the recent findings
of the committee for economic de-
velopment, his views indicated that
his thinking has not changed with
the times nor from those advocated
by many men in his position dur
ing the last quarter of a century.
At least, however, he did have a
new thought from political stand
point. Of course he is a Republi-
can in politics and if, by any chance
of political legerdemain such thing
possibly happens, remember you
read it in this column first. Here in
effect is what he said:
"The Republican party can
not accept Senator Taft for the
presidency. We cannot take
General Eisenhower or Dewey
or Governor Warren. We must
have a man who has worked
with his hands, a man who is
fighter, man who is close to
the soil, some entirely new
blood in the political picture,
and that man is Allan B. Kline.
He must be the man."
OF course you folks in the rural
areas know Allen B. Kline. In case
you don't he is an Iowa farmer,
president of the American Farm
Bureau Federation, particular foe
of Secretary of Agriculture Charles
Brannan and the Brannan farm
program and, who, some declare,
was slated to be secretary of agri-
culture had Tom Dewey been elect
ed president in 1913.

Kline's additionally Republican
state of Iowa, however, has not
been doing so well from the COP
standpoint recently. Iowans elect
ed a Democratic senator in Guy
M. Gillette last time and Presi-
dent Truman even carried the
state.
The political dopesters, how
ever, say COP Sen. Bourke
B. Hickenlooper stands a good
chance of reelection over for
mer Under-Secretary of Agri-
culture Albert J. Loveland,
who resigned to run for the
Democratic nomination,
The issue there, agriculturally
speaking, is over the Brannan
plan. So Kline's first hurdle will
be the reelection of Senator Hick-
enlooper and getting Iowa back in
the Republican column.

Out of parent discussion groups
working under expert guidance
can come effective solutions for
child raising problems, two child
specialists told a conference OF
some so teachers recently. The
first of it's kind in this area, the
conference was made up OF rep
resentatives of Is of Montgomery
County's nursery schools, both
public and private. and held at
Green Acres School in Rockville,
sponsor of the conference.
DR.. Ruth Tiederman, psychia-
trist at the Institute OF Child
Study at the University of Mary
land, and DR.. Hanna Colin, a
clinical psychologist and con-
sultant to Green Acres School,
were the specialists who ad-
dressed the group, throwing out
ideas of value to parent-teacher
understanding.
1--WE can read all we want about
others problems, but through
group sharing we experience
them" DR.. Tiedman declared.
DR.. Colin also stressed the
value of group work under COM
petent guidance, pointing out that
frequently parents realize that 1t
is really their problems. not their
children's, that they are discuss
| ing. DR.. Colin also stressed the
value of only a few sessions with
specialist in psychology for
many parents, declaring thai often
this sort of assistance can give
them the help they need, with
out long-term counseling.

their feelings pulling them into

she has followed herself in rails

out that "life gives us over and
over new chances, and the oppor-
tunities to learn new things"
Nursery school, she went on,
gives a child a new chance to
work something out he couldn't
work out at home, with mother,
or with the children. The child
who, at home, is "the Oldest" is,
at nursery school, no longer ruler

has the opportunity not always

the right pair of shoes enters into
the wardrobe picture. What good
is pretty dress when you don't
have properly styled shoes to wear
with it? Nor is this sad state of
affairs confined to grown women
Take the very touching case
of a 13-year-old girl forced to
wear boys shoes because it was
impossible to fit her properly in
anything else. In reality, this
business of outfitting this group
is in our estimation, more than
just a business dealt amounts
to a public service.
Over a period of years, the man
who owns and operates the shoe
store where person wearing

customers are able to choose from

What kind of fashion is it
that can cause woman to break
into tears? Not tears of sorrow
but tears of joy because, for per-
haps the first time, the woman
who wears a size IL shoe has been
able to find a decent-looking one
in high fashion color and style.
You can understand this bit
more when you realize that for
years such young women have
had recourse only to casual loafer
shoes or elderly looking oxfords.
Don't think the size problem
exists simply for older and bigger
women. There is also the petite
woman with the tiny cinderella "
foot. She may have to have her
shoes custom made at great ex-
pense.
The era of the ugly" shoe has
passed for these "misfits." Wheth-
er your size is l or 13, you no
longer need be made miserable by
having to wear shoes that lack
fine fashion styling.

which would really be helpful
Sol called my 15-year-old
daughter in, and asked, What is
the most important problem of
teen-agers besides boys?" She re-
piled, Men"

she continued, "It's a funny thing!
All the girls are trying to trap
boys and, when you hear the boys
talk. they sound like they are
Atrying to get girls. I don't see
why they don't all just act nor

Neither do I! I went on record
long ago as being opposed to
going steady" Why not be nor
NAL and natural and friendly?
Why not like lots of people and
have lots of friends, even if they
are of the opposite sex?
The restrictions of "going
steady" as interpreted by most
young people, are premature.
They impose obligations which
are premature. Young men and
women need the companionship
of many different friends of the
opposite sex in order to reach any
sound judgment in their final de-
clsion as to life partner. Going
steady assumes the obligations
of maturity without the expert
ence and judgment of maturity
This doesn't mean that you can
not like one boy especially. You
probably will. but you do not have
to tie him down and he doesn't
have to tie you down! You will
like each other better for a. little
freedom. You do not have to "go
steady just because you like
some one especially.
The worst thing about it is-it
loses friends for one. Young men
or young women who might have
been friends for life, somehow
seem to think they must save
face" by appearing Indifferent if
the girl or boy breaks it off" If
this going steady" thing were
not in vogue. the boy or girl would
enjoy many friendships and would
in time, come to know, in sound
way, which person really appeals
