we have to spoil the rest of our
lives because of it. After all,
we are still young and we have
a right to enjoy life. Johnny
feels we have to spend the rest
of our lives being work horses
for our children. He can't wait
to have a second one and he
never wants to go out for a
good time. I don't want to live

was.

John ST. may be young, but
at least I am willing to accept
the responsibilities I've under
taken. 1 wanted to see some
thing of the world before got
married, but 1 gave up all my
ambitions when 1 became a
father.
I know Cynthia sometimes
tries hard to keep a nice house,
but suddenly she gets disguised
and won't do anything for a
week. With the baby crawling
all over the place. it's really a
mess. Sometimes l hate to come
home. It's very depressing.
Synthia wants us to eat out
a couple Of nights a week and
then go to movie or out bowl
ing. I can't make her under
stand that an evening like that
is a very expensive proposition.
We are no longer high school
kids out on a lark.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
Johnny is to be congratu-
lated on his manly acceptance
of his responsibilities, but per-
haps he is OVERRIDING things a
bit. Becoming a father at the
age of 10 must have been some
what of a shock to him. He
decided to put his nose to the
grindstone and keep it there.
Yet we do not feel family life
should be quite as dreary for
parents as Johnny would make
it. Cynthia has some justice on
her side. Parents have a right
to some pleasure. 1t is good for
them and good for their chill
dren.
When parents insist upon a
total sacrifice of themselves for
their children, they are likely
to develop an undercurrent of
resentment toward the chill
dren. The children, in turn,
begin to feel they must make
things up to their parents.
Johnny admits that Cynthia
sometimes tries hard to keep
a nice house." Evidently she is
not entirely irresponsible, but

The Son of q Great Mon

Sometimes the son Of a great
man is rendered mute. He
stands silent in a long shadow
Often, he surrenders before he
begins his life because the goal
Of surprising his father is too
unattainable. Many Of these
become emotional cripples,
They drink. They chase women.
They steal. They grow big
momentarily on drugs. This is
not so with Samuel Goldwyn. jr.
He has just produced his first
big motion picture.
He is tall, sandy-haired and
hides his ambitions behind his
manners. He is 81, happily
married to Jennifer Howard
Goldwyn, and has a daughter
7, and a son, 4. AS far back as
he can remember, he has wanted
to be a movie producer. In this
business, his father was as big
as Rockefeller was in oil, or
Ford in motor cars. Sam, ST.,
was a pioneer. Fathers place
in the history Of entertainment
is so assured that now, at the
age of rs. no one even makes
amiable jokes about his garbled
cliches.
Sam, jr. made the climb
himself. His father helped him,
of course. But young Sam
wanted to learn the business
from the bottom, and no one
could hold his hand through
all of those phases. Nor would
Sam want it. He was fortunate
in having an understanding
father-and a mother, Frances
Howard Goldwyn, who is re-
garded in Hollywood, as being
just a shade this side Of saint
hood.

Sam also wrote q play called
1.-THE Gathering Storm" IT
was a big iiop. Winston
Churchill wrote a book with
the same title. It was a big
hit. Still. all the young mans
work was being chalked up as
experience, and there is an
early time in life when failure
Is as important to the spirit
as success will be later.
He returned to America and
worked for Universal. Then
came a job researching a story
in Germany for Goldwyn Pro-
auctions. The story didn't
work out. The muteness Of a
son was becoming more vocal.
Sam went back to the Army,
made a documentary film
about NATO and Eisenhower
and walked out with first prize
at the Edinburgh Film Fes-
tival.
SOmeday III Produce II
Back home. he read a story
owned by his father. It was
called "The Journal Of Linnett
Moore" Young Sam liked 1t.
His father shrugged. Some
day." said the son, IT will
produce this one" He patted
the manuscript.
Sam wasn't quite ready. He
wanted more experience, so he
worked in television for a while,
directed pilot films, started his
own movie company, called
Westward Productions, pro-
duced a mediocre film on the
supernatural, borrowed money
for a feature picture called
Man With a Cum" and shot
it. The picture cost $685., 900 and
crossed SIS million. Sam was
about ready.
A year ago, he paid his
father $4,000 for an option to
produce THE Journal of Lin
nett Moore" 1t is a story about
a father (Alan Ladd) and his
son (Mr. Ladd's son in real life)
who is a mute. They did not
understand each other, but
there is a woman OLIVIA De-
Havilland) who understands
both. 1t is now playing Broad
way. The title is Proud Rebel"

tionary impact Of this increase
which would add to Federal
deflcits-would be more than
offset by deflationary aspects
of the legislation.
More Money Going Out
Since last year, more money
has been going out of the social
security trust funds than has
been coming in. Actuaries at the
Social Security Administration
said the new bill would reverse
this situation in 1860 and pro-
vide annual surpluses from
then until 1885.
Actually, the funds would
continue to grow after 1885 be-
cause Of interest earned by their
investments.
The experts said also the bill
would reduce the 1859 deficit In
the fund. Benefit payments
next year under the new bill
would exceed tax income by
$3.50 million instead of by $70C
million as under existing law
they estimated.
Their projections showed that
in 1860, tax income would tor
benefit payments by 81 billion
instead of by $3.50 millions
under the current program. In
later years, they said, surpluseS
would be even greater.

Assets farmers own-such as

On that date, farm debt was IL

Just about all Of the remain

Of Pay Scales Urged
BY JOSEPH YOUNG

SAN DIEGO, Calf Aug. 25-A system for fixing the
salaries Of the Governments million classified employees

OF the American Federation Of Government Employees
Mr. Campbell made the proposal at the opening session
here Of the biennial convention of the AFGE.
Under his plan Congress would retain control classified

Criticizes Proposal
Mr.. Campbell in his report to
the AFGE convention criticized
the administrations proposal.
This proposal would be
more meaningful If it had been
the administration which had
tried to increase salaries and
the Congress which had baked
at it," the Age leader de-
lclared."
But the actual facts are quite
the contrary. In this and
previous administrations, 1t has
been the Legislative Branch
which was most responsive to
the need for pay adjustments
and the Executive Branch
which has held back. 1t is
Congress which is most ap-
preciative of the problems OF
supporting a family on a bare

authority would be held by q
proposed new joint congress
sional committee on pay which
would have sole responsibility
Of adjusting classified employe
pay The committee would also
nix the pay Of postal workers.
The joint committee. which
would be composed Of five
members each from the House

mittees, would review the Fed

An anniversary date would be
established as the effective date
Of annual adjustments. Not
less than go days prior to this
date, Federal employee unions
and other interested parties
would be given the opportun-
ity to submit their recommen-
cations or defend their posi-
tons at open hearings.

By the Associated Press

The social security overhaul
bill on President Eisenhower's
desk is tilted in the direction Of
defiation rather than imitation,
congressional and Government
experts believed.
They cited figures yesterday
which indicated the measure
also would help the Treasury
raise money to meet mounting
Federal deficits.
These forecasts shape up as
two of the most significant eco
nomic effects If the measure be-
comes law. The bill went to
President Eisenhower last Tues
day and congressional leaders
predict he will sign it.
Statisticians said the legis-
lation wouldn't add to current
Imitation worries because they
said it would take dollars out of
circulation. Over the next quar-
ter century. they said. the Gov
eminent would collect billions
more in social security taxes
than it would pay out in bene-
! fits.
Would Helm Treasury
These SURPRISES, by law, would
be invested only in Government
securities. The prospect of a
surplus would help ease the
Treasury's worries over find
ing bond buyers.
When the social security
trust funds buy United States
bonds there is no inf1ationary
effect. In. contrast, bank pur-
chases Of bonds often are in
hationary. This is so because
the value of the bond is added
to the reserve of the banks. in
creRsing their ability to extend
credit-in effect creating new
money.
The bill would raise retire
ment benefits about 7 per cent
next February and boost pay
roll taxes on workers and en-
ployers from 2A to az per cent
in January. 1t also would raise
the taxable wage base from the
first $4,000 of wages a year to
$4,000 starting next year.
