Make The Parents Responsible

Parents who fail to give their children the home training
which will result in their growth into selfrespecting, law abid-
ing citizens may in the future find themselves in violation Of
the law.
II is being proposed in a number of states now that par
ents be held not only morally but legally and financially re-
theory being that IL mothers and fathers know that they are
TO be held accountable for the conduct of their children. they
will be more inclined to give their children the right up-bring-
ing.
In making such a proposal this week. a Massachusetts
archbishop says that the prevalence Of crime is the direct re-
suit OF improper training of children by their parents. This is
so true! A child brought up in a Christian home where he is
where such traits of character as honesty. dependab lily and
responsibility are instlled in hin-such a child seldom strays
from his teachings.
The children who become involved in law violations are
usually youth whose parents were too busy to give them the
time, guidance, patience and example they needed during their
formative years. They are the children of parents who let
them just grow up" while they spent their leisure time socializ-
with friends or at the neighborhood bar
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he
is old. he will not d,7art from it."
So goes the Bible quotation.
AS the twig is bent, so is the tree inclined"
Many cities have had a wave of juvenile delinquency re-
Gently and are trying to find ways and means to combat il.
The best way well may be to penalize the parents who bring
children into the world and let them shift for themselves with
out the proper training at home for life outside the home.
Loud talking. boiserous laughter. the congregation Of gangs
on street corners pretty thievery-al are the result of poor
training at home.
Children who are given the proper care and training by
their parents at the cradle and toddling age do not turn out
to be young hoodlums when they get to be of school age.
We favor a parent responsibility law.
And the sooner such a parent responsibility law is passed
in the various states, the quicker will juvenile delinquency be
checked Kansas City Call

CHICAGO CAMP - j. w.
Milan and Roy Bryant have de-
MED they confessed to the muir
der of Emmett Till, as reported
in the current issue of Look mag
azine, and Mrs. Mamie Bradley,
mother of Till, said the magazine
'1ied about my boy"
These were the major develop
ments in an explosive situation
created by publication of the
article, Approved Killing in Mis-.
sissippi," by William Bradford
Hue, winner of the Pulitzer
Prize.
Michigan Rep. Charles c. Diggs
read the article into the Con-
gressional Record and called for
Federal action in Mississippi,
which, he said, has made America
ssthe shame of the world"
In Sudner, Mass, scene of the
trial where Milan and Bryant
were acquitted of Till's murder,
Milan told a newsman:
He (Huie) sdrely can't qlote
me as saying all that because l
didn't make any such statement.
There is nothing / can do about
somebody's imagination, but l
didn't have anything to do with
killing anyone"
The article described in detail
what is purportedly the actual
killing of the 14-year-old Negro
boy. because he allegedly made
advances to Mrs. Bryant.
Milan is quoted as saying that
he killed Till because he was
otired of 'em sending your kind
down here to stir up trouble. I'm
going to make an example OF you
Just so everybody can know
how me and my folks stand"
According to the article, the
White men had intended to
"whip" the boy and release him,
but became angered when he re-
fused to be fearful of them and
dragged that he chad relations

Mrs. Bradley, who says she read

about that kind of thing to be

over the daring of Look in print

band is saying is, at best, stretch
ing the truth.
One wife tells me that she
knows when her husband is lying
because, after telling his story,
he coughs when he doesn't have
to. Another says that her hus-
band always pulls his nose while
he is lying and never when he's
telling the truth. Fixing the eyes
on some distant object seems to
be a quite common trait with
lying husbands, from what 1 can
learn.
Personally, I seldom lie to that
certain party, whose name I am
forbidden ever to mention here,
because ] get queer crickles
around my eyes while I'm telling
a story. No matter how I try to
control my facial muscles, these
crickles appear and give me away
so I long ago gave up dallying
with the truth. I just confess
and throw myself on the mercy
of the court.
But a husband can keep his
mouth shut and still be guilty Of
deception, like the time I tiled
the shower stall. Well, / didn't
really tile it and that's how this
unfortunate incident came about
Feelings Were Hurt
I started to work with tile and
sticky goo and was going very
well when all the tiles fell of
This happened several times and
finally I called the guy who sold
me the stuff and he came and
did the job. saying his feelings
were hurt by amateur artisans
like men and he'd have to charge
me a little more than he would
have in the first place.
When that certain party came
home, she was delighted and
when / tried to tell her I didn't
do it, she Silenced me with a
torrent of compliments, calling
me clever and wonderful and
stuff like that. I couldn't get a
word in edgewise, so I shut up.
Well, just the other day she
decided the whole bathroom
should be tiled and had the stuff
sent to the house. She told me
to go to work and she'd help me.
OF course, the jig was up and
quite a bit of you-know- what
broke loose.
I'm sorry I told this big lie,
although I still don't think it
really was a lie, and I hereby
make public acknowledgment
that I am a liar and the truth is
not in me, as instructed.

The fact seems to be that
some husbands are good liars,
skilled and suave, while others
are very poor ones. But the
former never really know
whether they're good or not be-
cause some wives conceal their
disbelief to the extent that their
husbands live in a sort of liars

husbands say. their wives just
let it pass whether they believe
it or not.
With this type, which admit
