We all agree that the growth of
character is essential to youth.
We know that this is done through
the formation of ideals develop

through our educational system.
Through these ideals, attitudes
are formed which motivate con-
duct and eventually they play a
large part in the developing of
morality. The religious ideal is a
basic ideal of youth.

VATICAN CITY-(Radio, Nc
Governor Orval Faubus of Arkan-
sas, accused of calling out the
National Guard to prevent racial
Indignation in the states schools
in defiance of a federal court
order, has been sharply criticized
by L'Osservatore Romano.
The Vatican City daily stated in
All editorial that no one who up
holds or enforces racial discrim-
ination should be allowed to Tex
ercise political rights" Still less,
it added, should he be eligible for
public office.
It recommended this, it said,
to prevent repetition by United
States officials of acts harmful
to the country's good name and
the prestige of law, such as that
which opposes racial discrimina-
ton.
L'Osservatore went on to criti-
CHE Governor Faubus for not ac-
cepting as final the judgment of
the US. Supreme Court making
racial Indignation an inviolable
principle throughout the nation.
The newspaper set forth the
following reasons as justifying.its
recommendation:

gsnda reasons to be highly

SECURITY FOR YOU

From q New York reader: My
first husband died about three
years ago and ! remarked about
a month ago. This marriage has
turned out TO be very unfor-
tunate and I'm contemplating
getting either an annulment or
a divorce. I was receiving Social
Security payments from my

ments have stopped because Of
my remarriage. Is there any way
I can get my payments back II
I should leave my second hus-
band?"
There are only two ways:
l. An annulment or divorce
based on illegal marriage. For
example: II your second husband
had not been legally divorced
from a previous marriage. OR
2. Death Of your second hus-
band within the first year Of
your marriage.

that he would only be able TO

AhAZ O6 hAkO
Mrs. X. p. II am concerned
about the relationship between
my 15-year-old daughter and
one Of her women teachers.
Laura is very bright. with some
writing ability. This teacher has
encouraged her and. I feel. helped
her develop considerably in the
last year. She has had Laura
visit her home. lent her books
and even took her into the city
for a weekend Of theater and
museums.
Recently. however, Laura has
been going around with q dazed,
moony look. I picked UP one OF
her notebooks and found the
teachers name scribbled all over
1t. There was also a lot Of love
poetry. This teacher is unmarried
and a rather mannish type. j
am terribly worried. I can get
nothing from Laura but temper,
and ! would like to discuss the
whole thing with the principal.
My husband is against this.
Mr.. X. P.-I think 1t would be
very unjust to endanger this
woman's reputation on the basis
Of suspicious. She has done a lot
for our daughter. I've met her
and she appears to me a fine,
honorable woman. I'm sure she
wouldn't harm anyone-espe-
cially a young girl and q student
Of hers. Her professional ethics
wouldn't permit 1t.
This woman is in her 40's. She
has the reputation of being an
exceptionally dedicated teacher
She probably fulf1lls some Of her
motherly feelings in her relation
ship with her students.
Perhaps Laura has something
Of q schoolgirl crush on her.
That isn't abnormal and I'm
sure it will pass as she natures

time Of her life in which she can
explore multitude Of activities
The parents should encourage
the interests that put Laura in
touch with boys and girls of her
age.
1t would certainly be unjust
to endanger the teachers reputa-
ton on the basis Of suspicious
but there would be no great harm
in Laura's mother discussing
with the principal the possibility
Of Laura's being placed in a diff
ferent class for the new term
She can explain that she appreci-
ates the help this teacher has
given her daughter. but that she
feels the relationship has become
a bit too personal for Laura's
good.

How to
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
Avoiding Early ArterioscIerosis
By DR.. PETER J. STElNcRoHN

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: There
has been a history Of high blood
pressure and coronary disease in
our family. I am now 46 years
|old. and naturally, would like to
take any preventive measures
possible to forestall the onset Of
|arteriosclerosis. Do you have any
specific suggestions about special
low fat diets? When doctors dis
agree certainly seems to apply to
the diet question in arterios-
|clerosis. Mrs. KIDS"
Answer: Until recently we
have told patients with high
blood cholesterol levels-or those
with a history Of coronary dis
ease--to cut out fats indiscrim-
inately. Now we are making a
distinction b e tween saturated
and nonsaturated fatty acids in
foods. The former are supposed
to be bad for you"
According to an article by DR..
Charles d. May in a recent issue
|of the Journal of the American
M e die a | Association: "Unpro-
cessed vegetable fats include
larger amounts of the so-called
essential unsaturated fatty acids
than do most animal fats; the
significance of this difference in
preventing or relieving the ac-
Icumulation of excessive amounts
of cholesterol in the blood is the
subject Of intensive investigation
at present"
I advise obese patients, what
ever their present state Of health,
to lose weight. And / suggest
that they 60 about their reduc-
tion sensibly. because it is not
unusual to see people who overdo.
They either cut out "all fats" or
"all proteins" or "all carbohy-
drates." Soon their diets are de-
Evening star., 1957-04-29

flcient in the necessary minerals
and vitamins. And they wonder
why they look so drawn and
dreary.
If you are anxious not to get
arteriosclerosis prematurely (and
who isn't) resolve not to get
"diet-happy." Don't rush In
where others fear to tread. Keep
reminding yourself that If we
doctors admit that we don't know
the answer to the prevention of
|arteriosclerosis. 1t would be bet
ter If you waited until we had
the answer.
MY doctor doesn't believe IN
these low cholesterol diets" said
one patient. Another man said /:
II have high blood cholesterol
level and I've had a coronary
Thrombosis. My doctor has me
on a diet low in saturated fatty
acids" Other doctors take the
middle course.
Not having the answer we
must remain open-minded about
the cause and treatment OF
arteriosclerosiS. For example,
here is another quotation from
DR.. Mays article: Besides fat,
many other factors such as sex
heredity, age. physical activity
other dietary deficiencies, total
amount of calories ingested, and
disorders Of the liver and kidney
influence the amount of choles-
terol in the blood.
1T is not likely that a single
cause will be found responsible
for all cases of arteriosclerosis
nor should expectation be
aroused that this condition will
be completely prevented or reg
Iularly checked by a mere alter
ing of the kind or amount of fat
in the diet. The extent to which
