TV Critic
Hits Early
Marriages
BY FRANCES LIDE
Star Stan Writer


The over domesticated
world Of TV and the mass
magazines came in for caustic
comment yesterday from
author Marya Names who
foresaw dramatic reactions"
If they would try to present
attractive women who can
think and talk of something
besides the new washing
machines or the couple next
door,"
The good women" in the
TV serials. she said, wear
aprons and spend all their
day cooking, or dusting, or
worrying about Sis and
Junior and Grandpa"
The bad women" she
continued. are those who
work outside the home. "And
the really bad women
excuse me for Whispering
are the women who Like
Work"
The essayist and TV COM
mentator also paid her
respects to the trend toward
early marriage and large
families in a luncheon ad-
dress here at the Woman's
National Democratic Club.
I'm wondering" she said
pointedly. "if we need more
babies-or more adults"
Social Pressures
Parents of gifted and am
bilious daughters, she urged.

OF social presSures that make

dance now required Of the
teen-sge girl"
A girl should be allowed 70

date, without any stigma. i"
she said. And If her course OF
study makes it preferable
she should be able to wait to
marry until her mid 20s-
again without stigma OF
pity"
Miss Names suggested
that parents could discourage
early marriage by a simple
device-withholding financia
support.
The idea that young peo.
pie should not marry unless
they can afford it may b,
old-fashioned," she said. Blu
1t makes sense to me. I an
astonished at the number O.

blackmailed into supportint

a home as a domestic or

Standards Raised
The long range Navajo-Hopi Rehab-
iltation Act of 1850. which authorized
expenditures of S88 million in federal
funds under 10-year budget, has done
much toward raising the standards of
living of the tribes. the report stated
B u additional authorizations and ap-
preparations are still needed in certain
fields.
Here are specific recommendations
Of the joint Tribal l-Indian Bureau re-
port:
SOIL and moisture conservation, for
which $40 million was authorized. a.
bout So million appropriated which has
brought $3.50 acres of new land under
irrigation. Needed in particular are

land.
Off-reservation placements $3.5 mil

life, Jones declared.
He added: IT h e accomplishments

stress of some emotional tension
they'd up and say, Yea, I'm poor
and Proud OF 1t. thought about
it a lot here this past Saturday
night as l thought of some expert
ence I've been having in getting
Aunt Haggars Chilluns Kids to

the problems that my wife's hav-

Atlanta, Ga. While / sat there
over my fish and beer l think l
got it figured out. What's behind
that expression that Aunt Hag-
gar's chilluns used to use, and is
using now is a lot more PROUD
than just POOR. And the proud
in it runs all up and down the
scale. On one hand the last thing
that most of Aunt Haggar's Chill
luns want to do, is anything where
it can be said by some of Aunt
Haggar's Chilluns in the same fix,
that they are working and getting
paid by one of Aunt Haggar's
Chilluns. On another hand, some
how or another somebody got it
into the mind of Aunt Haggar's
Chilluns that you can't be some
body unless your job can be done
in a white shirt, collar, and tie.
Trying to dispel that idea was
the reason that Booker T. Wash
ington died long time before he
should have, and the real tragedy
is that today, in a mechanical
world all of Aunt Haggar's Chill
luns are still longing for the white
shirt, collar and tie job class.

mother told me, standing there
in the front room with no rug on
the floor, My boy don't halter sell
no newspapers -. and another Klo
whose folks l slightly suspected OF
having a little more sense said,
I CAN'T DO THAT SORT OF
THING . . and then there's the
kid whose Mama started to Kill
him for doing some errands for my
wife who had already discovered
that the kid needed some clothes
for school, and some school books
What l want to say is that back
of Aunt Haggar's Chilluns saying
about being POOR and PROUD OF
it there is something thatIl all
ways keep them with a lot OF
POOR to be PROUD of until
that something is changed to some
thing else.
