Mccarthy, President
Are UnhoIy Allies,
Mitchell Charges
BY the Associated Press

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla, Mar.
3.-Stephen A. Mitchell, chair
man of the Democratic National
Committee, said last night Presi-
dent Eisenhower "has made an
unholy political alliance with
Senator Mccarthy for the pur-
pose of the next election"
Mr.. Mitchell said the people
of America want Gen. Eisen-
hover to take strong stand
against Senator Mccarthy, and
If he doesn't the Republicans
will feel the effect at the No
vember elections.
Speaking at a county Demo-
cratic rally, Mr.. Mitchell said
Gen. Eisenhower set the pattern
for surrender to Senator McCar-
thy by deleting praise of Gen.
George Marshall from 1852
speech at the insistence of the
Wisconsin Senator.
Alliance Formed.
He Gen. Eisenhower cast
aside Gen.. Marshall, went to
Milwaukee and put his arm
around Mccarthy" Mr.. Mitchell
declared. In that way the I'M
holy alliance was formed-the
pattern was Set"
He added:
The Eisenhower Republicans
are coddling Mccarthy to the
detriment of our country and its
citizens. 1t is high time the
President brings order into his
own Republican house. It's time
the President requires respect
for the executive department of
the United States Government.
The people of the United
States will not allow this Repub-
lican Senator to disrupt our con-
stitutional sytem or deprive citi-
Zens of their, constitutional
rights.
Peoples Approval.
The people of America will
support the Republican Presi-
dent against Mccarthy if he
Gen. Eisenhower will lead.
And if he will not lead. the Re-
publican President will hear from
the people next November"
Mr.. Mitchell declared that
whatever the Republicans called
it, the Defense Department sur
rendered to Senator Mccarthy
in the matter of questioning
Army officers about suspected
Communist activities.
Let there be no mistake
about it. this kind of surrender
by the executive branch of the
Government is not necessary, ="
Mr.. Mitchell said.
Would Mccarthy be pushing
the Army. around this way if
Truman were still in the White
House?"

Juvenile Court Reports
Drop in Delinquency

The number of children re-
ferred to Juvenile Court on de-
linquency complaints was the
lowest in January since May,
1852.
There were 236 delinquent
children referred to the court in
January. the lowest number in
10 months, when there were 222.
And except for May, 1852, the
figure was the lowest since De-
cember, 1851.
A court official said he was at
a loss to explain the lowness of
the January figure. December
is always a low month and De-
cember, 1853, followed the pat
tern by being the lowest month
of the year. But the spokeS-
man said the figure usually rises
in January.
Preliminary figures for Febru-
airy indicate that the tigu.e IS
not the start of a trend. accord

Problems Today
Bv Muriel Nissen


DEAR MISS NISSEN: My
wife and were married young
and our marriage has been
blighted from the start by in
law trouble. From the first
week of our marriage we have
had visitors from my wife's
family five out of seven days
in every week. They come for
meals, stay overnight-all un-
invited. of course-and prac-
tically make our home their
headquarters. After a year, I
blew my top and implored
them to leave us alone for an
occasional week end. That
outburst resulted in my wife
leaving and going to her sis
ter's house. When I called to
get her. I was treated like the
worst villain in a Grade "B"
picture.
She came back two weeks
later. She left again because
her mother received a comic
birthday card anonymously,
and every one was sure I sent
1t. Does that strike you as
silly as it struck me? 1t took
some convincing, but even
tually my wife came back.
Now the tables have turned;
the in-laws won't have any,
thing to do with me, but have
my wife over to their homes
all the time. If we're alone to-
gether for an evening she
cries that she's homesick.
What can I do with her?

ANSWER: Your wife's emo
tional development stopped
when she was about 6, and her
family is doing everything
possible to see that it goes no
further. How and why she
ever accepted marriage, or her
family ever agreed to it, is a
mystery. If your wife's par
ents really had the welfare of
their daughter at. heart they
would do everything possible
to help her grow up and go
about her role of homemaker.
They are, instead, making
her more and more dependent
on them. Everything seems to
be against your plans for a
happy home and successful
marriage. The only possible
salvation is to coax your wife
into a consultation with a
marriage counselor. She needs
step-by-step guidance if she
is to grow beyond Mommy's
little girl. She is young
enough yet so that the part
looks cute on her-to out
siders-but it will be a bit
ridiculous as she grows older.
Now is the time for her to
accept maturity. It's very
doubtful if she can do much
herself even with your help.

Addresses Members on The
Vanishing American Pres

TELLS OF ISRAEL

A talk on the vanishing Amer
lean prestige in the Middle East
was given by Leroy Piper, past
president, before the Smyrna Ro-
tary Club Thursday night. Mr..
Piper's daughter, Miss Winifred
Piper, is associated with the
American Embassy in Tel Aviv.
He referred to the early Israe-
lites and their bondage, tracing
their history thru the centuries,
with the State of Israel now a
reality. In Israel the Arab popula-
tion outnumbers the Jews, he
stated. He told also of the Zion
ist movement organized to restore
Jerusalem to the Jews, which was
successful and Jewish refugees
are now being allowed to return
to Israel by some of the nations
of the world. He touched on sew
eral political issues in interna-
tional relations, with oil, miner
ais, and waterways causing high
tension among the peoples in the
Middle East. The American is an
unwelcomed guest in the Near
East and its environs, the speak
er said in conclusion. Mr.. Piper
was presented by Reynolds Pratt,
program chairman. William
Kruchen made the response, and
the club gave a rising vote of
thanks. Howard Pletsch, vice
president, conducted the business
session. Birthday greetings were
extended to Neal Oechsler. visi-
tors included DR.. Harry v. Hollo-
