DEAR DIR. STEINCROHN:

DEAR DIR. STEINCROHN:
A few weeks ago I read a let
ter in your column from a
woman whose child was suf-
fering from asthma. ! know
by personal experience how
great was her problem. My
little daughter developed
asthma at the age of two.
For three years the doctors
tried hard to find relief or
cure. Day after day and night
after night I prayed and
cried, asking Gods help and
advice to find the solution.
One night as I lay in my
bed listening to the usual rat
tie and wheeling and fight
ing for breath. the thought
came to me that maybe flu
shots might ward of these
attacks. I asked my doctor.
He said there was no harm in
trying but he could not
guarantee they would help.
He gave her the flu shot.
The attacks of asthma
haven't come again. For the
past several years he gives
her an injection Of the vac
cine every october and Feb
ruary. She doesn't wheeze
any more. I recommend these
shots as well as faith in God.
DR.. Steincrohn. don't you
think your readers should
know about this? Mrs. L. L. l..
WHATEVER HELPED, I
am glad for the good result.
! do not recall reading or
hearing Of the value Of flu
vaccine in asthma. I have
never had personal expert
ence with its use.
We know that many cases
Of asthma are due to sensi-
tization to bacterial infection.
! can understand how giving
a bacterial vaccine might
have influenced asthma; but
/ can't imagine how influ-
enza vaccine would do the
trick.
DEAR DIR. STEINCROHN:
I plan to be working for the
next few years and have
placed my 2 l2-year- old
daughter in a nursery school.
She seems to be quite happy.
I would like to know if there
could possibly be any bad
emotional effect resulting
from this placement.-Mrs. A.
IF YOU HAVE no choice,
the answer is evident. You
are doing it only so that you
can support her.
I am perhaps old-fashioned
In my reasoning when I
say the answer would be mo"
in other circumstances. For
example. as often happens,
when the mother sends her
little ones to a private nurs-
cry for selfish reasons: to
get them of her hands so
she can pursue her own daily
schedule without Interrupt
ton.
AS your little girl appears

in tight. low-cut dresses all
the time. All our neighborS
laugh at her and every man
turns around to look after
her. You can hear the wolf
whistles from blocks away
when Gloria goes walking
down the street. You'd think
she's MN, herself.
AS you can imagine. our
house Is a mess. the kids are
brawling all the time. the
dinner is never ready on

and we have gotten to the
point where most of the

Gloria That's his story!
From the day we've been
married. he's done nothing
but yell the most horrible,
disgusting things at me-in
front Of the children, too. He
has called me the most awful
names right out in the street
in front of people. That's
why people laugh. They're
really laughing at him.
though. Everyone is sorry for
me having to put up with
such a jerk for a husband.
I don't dress any different
than the other women around
here. Since when is it a
crime to bleach your hair?
I'm a natural blond, but my
hair has gotten darker. so !
touch 1t up. So what?
AS for our house, I work
like a horse taking care of
it and the kids. I'd like to see
his majesty lift a finger some
time to make things better If
they don't please him.
THE COUNSCIL'S VIEW
Any woman with a home
and five young children to
take care of has a more than
man-sized job on her hands.
The most efficient homemak-
er would not always come
through with a successful
dinner and the miracle
worker who can prevent five
young children from brawl-
ing hasn't been created.
Such a woman is entitled
to one big satisfaction in life
her husbands tenderness
and appreciation. Take these
away and her work is a hate
ful burden. She'll take it out
on the kids. on her husband,
on herself.
We gather that in her
hunger for some masculine
appreciation, Gloria has been
forced to turn to outsiders.
When mems glances and wolf
whistles follow her, she makes
up in some small measure
for what she is not getting
from her husband.
But Gloria is not Is and
she knows very well that this
brand of appreciation is tri-
vial and often phony. She
would be far happier if she
got the real thing from the
husband who apparently
cares enough for her to live
with her for 10 years.
We don't think that any,
thing justifies a man calling
his wife names, and hair
bleaching and sexy dress is
about the worst excuse we've
yet ileard. It's time Ben wised
up to some of his own faults.
We do think that a man
can easily get his wife to
tone down her dress by one
very simple method. He can
show her that he sincerely
appreciates and loves her at
all times, but that he prefers
her to save the SICKNESS for
their private times together.

Power Take-Off
Shield Prevents
Farm Horror

Picture yourself caught in the
whirling power take-off from your
tractor with no one around to shut
off the power.
1t could happen if you we're to
slip or fall against the power shaft
when the shield had been removed.
Serious injury or death often re-
suits from failure to keep tractor
power take-off shields in place,
warns Guy w. Gienger, of the
University of Maryland, College of
Agriculture.
Farmers who do not have stand
ard power take-off bitches or
shields can get information about
them from their implement deal
erS.
Farm machinery dealers have
complete Instructions on standard
bitches and adapters farmers need.
Safety is often neglected in the
development of homemade power
driven attachments for tractors.
Shielding this type of equipment
for safety is special problem
that each user must solve in
dividually.
No piece of farm machinery is
complete without adequate shields
for all exposed rotating parts, the
engineer concluded.

Hays Asks Probe
Of Vote Giving
Afford His Seat
By the Associated Press

Former r epresen tive
Brooks Hays called today for a
House investigation of whether
his defeat in last falls election
by Representative Afford, DEM
ocrat of Arkansas, was due to
voting frauds.
Mr.. Afford ran as a write-in
segregationist candidate. Mr..
Hays, the Democratic nominee
and a veteran Of Is years in the
House, called himself a mod
crate on the segregation issue.
Mr.. Hays told a reporter he
has informally advised Repre-
sentative Burleson. Democrat
Of Texas, chairman of the
House Administration Com
mittee, that he believes an
investigation should be ordered.
But he repeated previous
assertions that he was not
contesting Mr.. Affords seat in
the House. He said his stand
in favor of an investigation was
motivated by concern over the
integrity Of the ballot.

house so feet from the spot

The theory was based on tha
disclosure that a button from
Mrs. Jackson's coat was found
inside the Tonga b andone d
house.
Discovery of the button was
made during an on-scene in
veStigation by Maryland police
and FBI agents after two boys
found the shallow grave Of the
two Jacksons at Gambrrills,
Md. March 81. but was not an
nounced at the time.

Both DR.. Russell S. Fisher,

Whether they died there may
never be known, unless it is

Tex Exemption
OF Foundation
Upheld by Court

Loans sometimes serve char
liable purposes better than
gifts. District Tax Court Judge
10 v. Morgan ruled yesterday
The District had claimed
that the Fred s. Kogod Foun-
dation, Inc, did not qualify as
q charitable organization ex-
empt from taxes because it had
made loans to grocerymen.
The Judge noted that "in
helping the two grocerymen to
get on. their feet. instead of
becoming public charges with
their families (the foundation)
was performing very valuable
service to the District. It is just
so, many less people on the
relief rolls"
The loans. therefore, were
charity, the judge concluded.
The District had also con-
tended the foundation lost its
exemption by making charita-
BILE contributions to Is INDECENT
rabbis because some of them
live abroad. A congressional
amendment Of the District law
now exempts inheritance taxes
for District foundations which
contribute to the needy outside
the city limits, the Judge held.
He ordered the District to
turn over the assessed $1,731. 40
plus 4 per cent interest since
last August to the foundation.
