Senate Ok's Harlan For
Supreme Court Bench

Washington 49, (ANP)-- Judge
John NJ. Harlan of New York was
confirmed for Supreme Court
Justice by the Senate on wednes-
day night by a vote Of II to IL.
The final action on this long
pending appointment now makes
ii possible for the high court to
consider soon ways of implement
ing the order against racial dis
elimination in the schools of the
nation.
The court has postponed hear
ings on this controversial question
until the nomination of the ninth
justice had been confired. Harlan
fills the vacancy caused by the
death Of Justice Robert Fl. Jack
son last October.
He was appointed TO the Su-
preme court bench the following
month by President Eisenhower
but his confirmation was held up
because Of opposition. This oppo-
sition stemmed from fear that the
New York Judge would be SYM
pathetic about the indignation of
schools.

service for their sex.
MARRIAGE - Even the youngest teen-agers
have considered comments on marriage Here
is summary Of their views on various aspects:
Age - Eight out of 10 believe girl may
start thinking about becoming bride at 20.
or even younger. Boys should be at least q.
Engagements - Eighty-four per cent think
three months is the ideal length of time. with
one year being the outside limit.
Living with IH-Laws - A solid 81 per cent
plan to live away from their family home
Once again, the theme is the desire for indie
pendence. Seventeen-year-old Frank from
Miami wants ito stand on my own two feet
And lS-year-old Wilma from Minneapolis
says. IL want chance to develop as home
maker even if make mistakes
. Financial Support Here. the sense Of in
security seems TO outweigh the desire for indie
pendence. For 76 per cent of the girls say they
would take financial help from their family and
so do 50 per cent of the boys
. Working Wives - There is sharp disagree
ment on this point. Seventy-eight per cent Of
the boys say they will not permit their future
wives to work. But ID per cent Of the girls see
no reason why they shouldn't.
We then asked teen-agers the general ques-
ton. What is your biggest probIem?" The
replies range from lucky l4-year-old who
blnhely says, II don't have any" to serious
minded l8-year- girl who explains, Il have
so many problems. ] don't know which ones
to put down.
twenty-five per cent Of the girls say their
biggest problem is boys, but less than one per
cent Of the boys worry that much about the
opposite sex. Many Of the Older teens say
their biggest concern is simply, the future.
Twelve per cent Of the boys list the draft. and
10 per cent Of the girls, marriage.
The Summing Up
This graphic portrait Of modern teen-agers,
drawn by themselves in answer to our ques-
tons, is now complete. As reported in pre-
vious articles they welcome responsibility and
are prepared to pay for abuses Of it. They con-
stantly strive 10 be their own masters. TO have
more independence at home, to be put on their
honor at school, To behave on dates the way
they desire. Yet they want guidance - as long
as il does not become arbitrary authority.
Indignant about the few juvenile delinquents
among them. they believe that youthful wrong
doing can be sharply reduced by loving and
understanding parents. Their most serious
complaints are that parents shy away from dis
GUESSING sex problems and that they fail to lay
down practical ethical principles.
The editors Of THIS WEEK are aware that
young people raise many problems that can
not be fully answered and that their desires are
sometimes excessive or ill-conSidered.
In addition, these composite replies will not
apply totally to any given teen-ager. But this
series will fulfill our hopes il il causes adults to
direct attention to the emotional needs of their
children A good starting point might be

raised by this series
