How 'oes the parent know
when the time is ripe for a thcr.
apeutic argument?
Mills says, The argument can
be usefully guided to help the
child find relief from tensions
Tor instance, when he's anxious
because of pressure from ex-
ans"
He points out that the
ehild's emotional development
Is easily observed as most dis
tracing 10 many hsrrassed
parents. We know there are
certain seqveniisI types OF de.
velopment. First. the baby Is
quite unaware 81 other people.
He is ansered by hunger and
other diseomforis, Later, the
child becomes snsered through
a clash Of Wills. The younger
the child, the more parents
must be alert 10 help him sat-
isfy his needs.
When il comes TO a clash of
will between parent and teen-age
child, the parent often feels
threatened because his personal
integrity is challenged His temp.
tation is to make the child con-
form to his own will.
But by doing this he Gre
afes another situation in which
the child may strike out. n he
can't take his feelings out on a
punching bag. he may strike
out verbally, and this is diff.
cult for the parent TO contend
with.

Perfect Veto Score

MIR. Eisenhower vetoed a $1.375
billion housing bill on July Z
and the Senate failed to override.
Both houses must override to en-
act legislation in face Of a veto.
The current measure is con-
sidered a compromise" by it's pro-
oonents, who turned down all eff
!orts by administration stalwarts
to tailor it to the Presidents lik-
ing by amendments. Mr.. Eisen-
hover has said that several pro-
visions still are seriously objec-
tionable" to him. These include:
New loan programs totaling 500
million for college clasSrooms and
laboratories and to finance hous-
ing for the elderly: authorization
for $1,000 new units of federally
subsidized low-rental public hous-
ing, and a $25 million program
for the purchase by the Federal
National Mortgage Association Of
cooperative housing mortgages.
The President is not altogether
happy, either, with a major pro-
vision calling for $3.50 million in
grants for urban renewal-slum
clearance for the next year. He
recommended $500 million a year
for the next two years.

TreosuY's Problem

The Treasury finds itself in q
box because it must borrow in the
next IL months about $85 billion
to cover maturing securities, bond
redemptions and seasonal cash. It
cannot obtain long-term loans be-
cause, as the President pointed out,
present prosperity" has created
a strong demand for credit which
has kept the cost Of new long-term
borrowing higher than the AIS per
cent limit.
Barring congressional action,
the Treasury will have to borrow
for five years or less. (There is no
interest-rate limitation for such
periods) This, according to Treas
ury experts, will create inflationary
pressures because it would be al
most like issuing new money.
The arguments against giving
Mr.. Eisenhower what he seeks are
far from persuasive and indicate
there is at least a trace of politics
involved. Some opponents dispute
the emergency nature of the situa-
ton and say a general rise in in
terest rates for all borrowers
would follow removal of the Gov
eminent ceiling. Others want to
wait for a report by the Joint
Senate House Economic Com

Labor:
StdIemdte

"CloSe, but no cigar" That is the
story Of the efforts of Senate
House conferees who last week
sought unsuccessfully to produce
a compromise labor reform bill.
Newspaper headlines, rejecting
the closeness of agreement, ran
like this: Wednesday, "Conferees
Nearing Labor Bill Accord;
Thursday, Labor Accord Reported
Near" and Friday, Labor Action
by Conferees Seen by Night"
There had been reason for
optimism. Agreement had been
reached on AZ major and minor
differences between the Houses
tough Landrum- Griffin bill and
the milder Kennedy Erwin meas
ure voted by the Senate. Much of
the progress was made because

Letter From Khrushchev

Mr.. Khrushchev, timing his &C
ton carefully, sent a personal
message to Mr.. Adenauer in which
he adroitly mixed caution with
Cancellation. The message, deliv-
cred at the Chancellery a few
hours after Mr.. Eisenhower'S
arrival at Bonn, warned that rela-
tions between Bonn and Moscow
were at critical stage. 1.-The
question is this" wrote the Soviet
Premier, "are we able to start up
a businesslike cooperation and re-
store trust, regardless of differ
enceS existing between the two
countries, mainly of an theological
character? Differences of theology
have always existed and will exist.
No sensible man thinks these
should be overcome through war"
After spending Friday night at
Balmoral Castle, the guest of
Queen Elizabeth, Mr.. Eisenhower
yesterday flew to Chequers, coun-
try home of the Prime Minister.
Today was to be spent in informal
conversations and rest; tomorrow
the official party returns to Lon
don for discussions to be capped
by joint Eisenhower Macmillan

people and state dinner.

the probable summit conference
that may result.
Basic in the talks between the
Big Three. West Germany and
Italy is the need to emphasize the
continued unity of the Western
alliance. Even diplomats who have
long recommended a summit
meeting and direct contacts be-
tween the Soviet and Western
leaders have warned of the danger
to Western unity in even indirect
or limited bilateral negotiations.
And Mr.. Khrushchev has long let
it be known that, in his opinion,
only direct negotiations between
the United States and the Soviet
Union can settle the major prob
lens in the cold war.
Thus the Presidents trip to
Europe is intended not only to
reasSure the Western allies that
no bilateral commitments will be
made, but also to achieve a con-
cert of views with which to APP
proach the Soviet Premier's posi-
ton. Whether such a unity can

On the matter of series E and H
savings bonds, Mr.. Rayburn did not
rule out the possibility the House
would lift the 1926 per cent limit.
If it does and the Senate agrees,
the Treasury has announced it
will raise the payments to 3.75
per cent, retroactive to last June /.

for the Democratic leadership in
Congress to turn q deaf ear to a
proposal which would put extra
money in so many pockets.
Other important legislation the
President has declared his earnest
desire" to see passed before Con-
gresS adjourns include an adequate
foreign aid program, a civil rights
Dill like the one he proposed and
an effective labor reform measure.
