worse now than ever. The
kids have to stick to the let
ter Of the law or they get
punished by having all their
privileges taken away. Bar
bara, our oldest, has been
very fresh with her father
when he lays down the law
like that. AS a result she
has been kept out Of almost
all social activities for the
rest Of the school term. I
have begged her to keep her
thoughts to herself and al
ways behave like a lady In
front Of her father. but she
can't hold her temper.
Barbara ST. would act
like a lady if I got treated
like one. My dad talks to me
as II ! were the worst tramp.
Even before I've done any,
thing he is ready to blame
me for everything under the
sun.
The reason for our last
blow-up was that I came in
from a date exactly 10 min
utes after my deadline. It
wasn't my fault or my boy
friends. The bus schedule
had gone haywire because Of
q road accident. Did my
father give me a chance to
explain? No, he lashed into
me and my boy friend as
though we had committed the
worst crime.
When I tried to explain,
dad told me to shut up and
I lost my temper. Now I'm
not allowed to date until
Christmas,
THE COUNCILS VIEW
Barbara is right when she
demands to be treated like a
lady. She should also be
treated like a human being.
When her father bawls her
out in front Of her boy
friend, never giving either Of
them a chance to offer any
explanations, he is treating
her with a contempt that can
only breed rebellion and
hatred. Eventually. a big
bloWup will come and Bar
bara will be forced to a total
rebellion, which could bring
diaSter to an unhappy
youngster.
Instead of giving Barbara
a destructive kind of SYM
pathy which aligns the two
women against the husband
and father. Mrs. M. s. ought
to be helping Barbara in a
more constructive way. She
should discuss with her hus-
band the very serious prob
lem Of his temper and his
rigid, tyrannical ways which
are having a bad effect on
the whole family. This kind
Of man is pretty much out
of fashion in our age. We
get the impression Mr.. M. S.
could be disturbed about a
lot Of things that don't bear
directly on his daughter.
1t is very difficult to reach
a person who prideS himself
on his harshness and stub
bornneSS, but it can be done
by a clever and sympathetic
wife.

"Will you explain what is
meant by masked hyperthy-
roidism,' DR.. Steincrohn?
Nothing seemed to help my
husbands heart until they
discovered the thyroid was
involved. I can't get the con-
nection." So writes Mrs. L.
AN ACTUAL CASE history
that will help. The patient
was a man Of 81 who was
brought into the hospital in
heart failure. He had fluid
in his lungs. abdomen and
ankles. He coughed and was
short Of breath-even when
sitting.
Given digitaliS and the
usual diuretics to remove ex-
cess fluid. he stubbornly con-
tinued to go down hill. It
was then we became suspi-
ciouS.
We re-evaluated. We no.
ticed that his skin was moist
and that his eyeS-although
not bulging - seemed moist
and wide. He complained of
having loose bowels" every
few weeks for no apparent
reason. Occasionally, he
would have sugar in his
urine that disappeared with
out special dieting.
We added up all these
''perimeter" symptoms and
came to the conclusion that
we would have to con-
slider hyperthyroidism. Sure
enough, the protein bound
iodine test indicated over
activity.
His thyroid was treated
with medicine. Not until then
did the digitalis and other
medicine he had been given
take hold. His shortness of
breath and fluid disappeared.
This, then, is a case Of
"masked hyperthyroidism,"
Mrs. L. It means that the
symptoms don't "hit you in
the face" Therefore, we
doctors must always think of
the possibility-even though
there are no finger-tremor,
bulging eyes, excess nervous

Zontd Group
Hears Speaker

The best way to gain more
rights and privileges for all
women is to educate the
woman of the upper" class
that she has a responsibility
to help 1.-The large feminine
population in the lower
class" m e m bers of the
Zonta Club of Washington
were told yesterday.
This is the conclusion that
has been reached by the
nter-American Commission
of Women, Mrs. Graciela
Guam Valenzuela, chairman
of the commission told Zonta
members at a luncheon
speech.
Mrs. Quan, who is the
Guatemalan delegate to the
commission. has just been
elected to her second two
year term as chairman.
Great progress in women's
rights has been made since
the commission was formed
by nations of North, Central
and South America, Mrs.
Guam said.
In the beginning, she de-
clared, only the United States
had granted rights to women.
Now "juridical rights" have
been achieved in all the
member countries except
q: Paraguay. which still does
not grant civil rights, she
said.
The speaker said that in
ternational organizations like
Zonta can be of great assist
ance in developing the leader
ship to make possible a better
life for women, particularly
in working conditions.

Citizens Viewed as Accepting Court
While Extremists Turn From Foubus


In Little Rock. Ark. q story
develops. chapter by chapter.
toward q conclusion that was
written before the opening
sentence.
The mills Of the law, like
the mills Of the gods, grind
slowly. But they grind. People
who live by law must accept
the. processes Of law or oyer
throw their courts and their
way Of life. its protection. its
guarantees, its assurances Of
human rights. That Is why
the end Of the Little Rock
story was written before It
began. We are not yet ready
to exchange law for anarchy.
Il Is o sad story In that 1t
reveals how deeply many good
persons were deceived and be-
trayed by fanatic extremist
leadership. There Is pathos
in Il because thousands Of
children lost q year Of school,
ing. A city, which has not
attained a single new industry
since the chaos deliberately
and artificially was created
by ambitious men. has
suffered greatly. There Is
melancholy In It. Is the
record shows, and ferocity
Of action was futile.
But to those who believe
this must be q nation Of law.
whatever some Of our personal
feelings may be. there is
reinsurance In it. The law
lives. And the people Of the
city, save for some 200 ex-
tremists, fed by outsiders,
have come to accept that fact.
though to do so Is under
standably distasteful to many.
Perhaps the most forlorn
single person in the scene is
Gov. Orval Faubus. Today
he pleases no one. Even the
extremists who made him an
idol now repeatedly curse him
for deserving them and "do-
ing nothing" He. who listen
ed to the sirenlike voice Of
political ambition. Is perhaps
the most lonely. emhittered
man In politics. He cannot
help but look back and ask
Of himself where he would

Some Lessons for Khrushchev

which is often referred to as
the source Of many ideas
that influence the political
battles Of our democracy. The
declaration was undoubtedly
designed to affect public
opinion by dramatizing the
imitation issue. It said:
Last year. a thief stole
money from 100 million peo-
ple-including you. He stole
some OF your food money.
some Of your savings. some
Of all the money you earned.
He stole some the year be-
fore last. the year before
that. And unless something
is done about II, he'll keep
on stealing.
"Who is the theft The
name isn't important ~ call
him ;infiation.' high cost Of
living. the shrinking dollar
anything you like.
but what Is important is
the historical fact that IN
any country where this I'M
fiationary process has been
carried to a conclusion, the
result has been depression:
not recession but depression
IA dark. agonizing period Of
hardship. poverty and suffer-
ing, often leading to revolu-
ton and Dictatorship"
The argument continues
with the suggestion that the
Government can help by liv-
ing within its income. while
business and labor should be
both judicious and respons-
sible" with respect to pricing
and proflt-taking and to
requests for increased pay.
The people as q whole. more
over. are urged not to demand
the spending Of money by the
Government for improves
ments" unless they are will
ing to shoulder increased
taxes to pay for them.
Here We have debate on the
free-enterprise and the free
trade-union syste m. Both
may from time to time bring
excuses but. precisely be-
cause these are recognized
and publicly discussed. they
are eventually resolved by
the processes Of American
public opinion. BY noting this
form Of discussion, Nikita
Khrushchev may learn some-
thing constructive about what
is meant by freedom as OPP
