INeW Clubs for Older Persons

Idle an emergency must be present
at every gathering.
So hale and hearty are some, as
a matter of fact. that Mrs. Rinov
has trouble keeping up with them
She took a group to a picnic in
ISt. Mary's County week ago, felt
like rag" herself the next day
and discovered the oldsters were
as chipper as ever.
From her New England exper-
Iience Mrs. Rinov has learned that
women are more easily attracted to
"a club of this sort than men are
But once they've joined, the men
are there to stay. In the small
New Hampshire town, she made
la point of getting acquainted with
the older men. But it took me
three years to get them out of the
town square and into the club, "
lSIle reuleMDeTeQ.
She recalled the story of one old
man in another city who volun-
teered to supply buses when funds
were not available to hire them for
"a promised picnic. And supply
them he did. He was a man of
means whose friends had slipped
away with the years. You don't
know what this means to me-" he
said.
One hears that a lot in this
work, Mrs. Rinov unused. as older
persons make new friends, and, in
a sense, a new life.
One Super Sixties member is a
French woman with a fascinating
life story. who lives alone now in
Washington. Her husband and
one daughter were killed in the
first World War. Her second
daughter. who had married an
American, died in this country
shortly after her second child was
born. The grandmother gave up
her thriving dressmaking estab-
lishment in Paris to come here to
raise her grandchildren for, she
explained, Il felt they were Amer
ican."
At a meeting of a "Super-Six-
ties" club she met a young singer
who reminded her of one Of her
daughters, and made a fabulous
rainbow dress" of many colored
tulle for her. She found new
friends there. too. to share her
Christmas dinner.
Some club members need expert
advice. One woman dropped into
Mrs. Rinov's Office at 1902 Rhode
Island avenue NV, one day and
announced, You know. dearie, ]
need a friend" 1t developed that
she wanted to take a case to court,
but didn't quite know how to be-
gin.
Finding help for her gave Mrs,
Rinov the idea for a geriatric
counseling service she hopes to set
up in the future. It would be
made up of volunteer specialists
from many fields, religion. health
housing, law, who would counsel
older folks when the need arose
Through this group. too. she would
like to develop a list of experts to
speak on the problems of aging.

Problems
Today
Girl Should Forget
Man Who Puts
Money First
By MurieI Nissen

DEAR MISS NISSEN: For quite
some time I have been going
steady with a man who has inten-
tions of "someday" getting mar
ried. We are both 80. The reasons
for his delay is that he feels we
should have a certain amount OF
money before marrying. He also
feels that we should not have chill
dren, since they get on his nerves.
I, on the other hand. am extreme
ly fond of children and would like
a large family. The third reason
for the postponement of our mar
riage is that my friend, Mac. being
a successful businessman, believes
that wife should be secondary to
his career. He expects to put his
business first. wife and home Sec
ond. I feel that he is wrong but
his ideas along these lines are def
mite, and he contends that a
lack of understanding on my part
is our real difficulty.
LAURA M.
ANSWER: Macs emotional
makeup leads me to believe that
his mother was a deepfreeze and
his father an adding machine. He
simply isn't human. Laura. so
what possible attraction could he
have as a husband?
Any one Of the drawbacks he
presents would send any normal
girl flying in the other direction,
yet you don't mention one re-
Ideeming quality probably be-
cause he doesn't have any.
The real reason behind his ex-
cuses for avoiding matrimony is q
colossal egoism that shuts out
and will always shut out-any
form Of affection or consideration
for another person.
Business is, of course. an i'm
portant aspect Of any mans life.
yet no one but a cold d-blooded fish
would aver during his courtship
that his wife would naturally be
given second place to ledger.
Most serious is his stand on
children. Since you like. and want.
family, there is absolutely no
possibility Of your being happy with
a man who considers youngsters a
nuisance. If you marry Mac and
accede to his demand to eliminate
children as a part of your home.
you'll be beset by Illustrations of
such severity that they might even
eventually endanger your sanity.
Think things out little, Laura.
Mac has absolutely nothing to
offer in the way of home. family.
affection, love. devotion or any
other quality that makes a good
husband.

QUEBEC.
mrs. II. L., Falls church,

mrs. II. L., Fats Church)
Mrs r. A. L.. College Park:
My husband and I visited Que
bee last summer and enjoyed it
enough to contemplate returning
there this year, too.
When you arrive in Quebec,
stop at any of the government
owned tourist information bu-
reaus, of which there are many.
and get maps. booklets and the
tour Of the city. This last is a
detailed pamphlet. easy to follow
and full of interesting informa-
ton of the city. There is no
charge for any of this.
There are guides who will
drive you, in your car. through
the city for IS, a rate set by the
government. and they spend
about an hour to an hour and a
half on this tour. However, un-
less you are timid about driving
through the old. narrow, steep
streets, do your own driving,
following the mapped tour you
have been given by the bureau.
It is the exact route the guide
follows. We cannot speak or
read French, but immensely en-
joyed looking for the streets;
the signs are for the most part
in French and not always easy
to find on the old buildings.
This tip was passed on to US
by many American tourists, who
always talk to other tourists at
the gas stations, etc. BY doing
your own touring. you can do
so leisurely, stopping for as long
as you wish at the various
churches, etc.
Do take the guided walk
through the fort. There is no
charge, but a voluntary tip to
the guide.
Take your camera and film
and fiindcurlers, if you have
them. Do stop at the American
customshouse before entering
Canada and get the pamphlets
on what you may or may not
bring back duty free. as well as
what you may take intoAC Canada.
All the meals we ate in Que
bee were excellent and far
cheaper than comparable meals
here. The people were pleas
ant and friendly and have the
most beautiful complexions
imaginable.
Do visit the Shrines in and
around Quebec. They will in
terest you, even if you are not
of the same faith.
We didn't get to Gaspe, but
hope to this summer.
AS for information about lob
stering, special crafts. ETC., I'm
sure you can obtain such in
formation at the tourist bureau.
Permit yourselves most of the
day to tour Quebec and if you
follow the written tour, you will
see it all. Wear walking shoes
and if no hat. carry a hand
kerchief to cover your head in
the churches.

SUGGESTION.
Mrs. F. L. B.. Washington
I am very grateful to Mrs.

answering my query regarding
a genealogical department in
the newspapers.
In reply to Miss N. P. L., am
a member of the Daughters of
the American Revolution, and
very much impressed by their
marvellous library.
Mrs. c. T. S. should be able
to secure volumes Of the Mary
land Historical Society Maga-
zine from the Maryland His
torical Society, Baltimore. Md.
The Southern Book Co., 6 East
Franklin street. Baltimore. Md.
is often able to supply historical
or genealogical magazines or
books and will send catalogues
on request.
What do the readers think Of
a genealogical column in a
Washington newspaper, since
this city is the crossroads of
the country, and such inquiries
would be read by so many per-
sons, both residents of Wash
ington and visitors?

Judge Coekri|I Warn!
Laughlin, Dismisses
Contempt Charges

Juvenile Court Judge Edith H
Cockrill yesterday dismissed. with
la warning, contempt charges
against Attorney James j. Laugh
lin.
The lawyer had been cited for
failure to appear as attorney in
a paternity case before Judge
Cockrill last month.
Mr.. Laughlin said he had be-
come involved in a District Court
matter at the time of the paternity
trial and had sent his associate
Attorney Albert Ahern, to repre-
Isent him. But the defendant in
the case had refused to accept the
change in lawyers.
Earlier yesterday. Mr.. Laughlin
filed, with the Speaker of the
House, a petition for the i'm
|peachment of Judge Cockrill on
the grounds that she "does not
have the equipment Of character
necessary for judicial Office. mas
much as she is tyrannical, arbi-
trary, abusive and does not
show proper regard for superior
courts. %"
At one point in yesterdays con-
tempt proceedings, Mr.. Laughlin
insisted that supoenas be issued
calling as witnesses Chief Judge
Bolitha Laws of District Court
and District Court Judges Alex
ander Holtzof and F. Dickinson
Let's. along with a number OF
other court officials.
The lawyer also told Judge
Cockrill he intended to have SUBJ
poenaed the entire bench Of the
District Court, the Municipal
Court, the United States Court of
Appeals and Associate Justice

Accountant Quizzed
On Details Of LAS
Income Tax Returns
BY the Assoeioted Press

|
Attorneys poured detailed uues-
tions today at the man who pre-
pared the income tax returns on
which William G. Lias is being
sued for $2,850,000 deficiency.
The witness was David Goldberg,
a certified public accountant whom
the Wheeling Race Track owner
employed to audit records Of many
Lias interests. He was recalled for
questioning about the business
records.
Testifying in the United States
Tax Court hearing yesterday, Mr..
Goldberg denied Lias had ever
asked him to falsify the returns
or the records on which they were
based.
The court is hearing the Gov
ernment's claim that Lias owes the
1850. 900 in taxes, interest and
penalties for the years 1912
through 1948.
LlaS, admitted former boOtlegger
and gambler. contends accurate
records were kept of his businesses
and that he paid in full his taxes
for those years.
Mr.. Goldberg replied no to a
question by Lias counsel If Lias
had ever asked him to bypass
or do anything dishonest to cheat
the Government" in tax returns.
A similar answer to a similar
question was given by William
Reuther. Of William Reuther, Inc,
Wheeling.
MIR. Reuther also answered no
to a question whether he himself
as a former partner Of Lias in
William Reuther. Inc, had done
anything toward falsifying the
Lias tax returns.

II. Commodity speculation for a
rise will not pay in 1862. Further.
more, our expanding stockpiles of
strategic materials present a real
price threat in the event of a peace
