Being a doctor, I suppose
you will think me prejudiced.
Don't get me wrong. I am
not limiting that all old doc
tors deserve a handout for
doing the job that was a part
of their daily routine. Never
theless, they shouldn't be al
lowed to wither on the vine.
Or, just fade away.
For every doctor who rides
around in an expensive car,
there are two who clatter
around in five-year-old mod
els. For every one who has
a winter and summer home
there are two who wonder
how they are going to meet
the payments on the mort
gage.
When you are young
enough to fight against eco
nomic adversity-that's one
thing. When you are old and
too tired-that's another.
The American Medical AS
sociation may or may not be
doing something about it
now. I don't know. But they
should-if they aren't.
Every young doctor should
be taxed as he begins prac-
tice. He will keep putting
money into the retirement
kitty" during the fruitful
years of his practice. When
he becomes too old or too
weak to carry on, his assured
little nest egg will be await
ing him. To me the tattered
old, black, doctors bag is
really only a symbol: OF the
helplessness of all the aged.
Of old doctors, old lawyers,
old Indian chiefs OF their
elderly wives. OF the sick and
the poor.
AT LAST, politicians have
also become aware of the
problems of the aged. Public

THE PROBLEM

Laura R.-Bertha's med
ding has made trouble.
Bertha K.-I only tried to
help.
Evening star., 1960-08-09

Gently. I have been extremely
upset about it and one day
when my closest friend,
Bertha, came to visit me I
poured out the whole story.
I know was wrong but I
did talk in confidence-or so
I thought.
Well, Bertha, trying to
help. told the story to my
wealthy sister. who told it
to her husband. He went to
my husband and said if he
wanted a loan why didn't he
ask for it himself like a man.
My husband was furious. We
want no help from them.
This was just plain med
ding, but Bertha doesn't see
it that way.
Bertha K.-I have been a
very close friend of both
Laura and her sister since
childhood and I have been
very sorry to see the two
sisters drift apart - mainly
because Betty, the wealthy
sister. has moved into high
society and Laura can't keep
up with her.
Betty is concerned about
Laura, who has always had
a rough time financially. But
Laura is afraid of being
patronized and Betty has
always been very cool.
The day I visited Laura,
she was so upset I was really
afraid she would have a
breakdown. The following
day I visited Betty and
couldn't help but contrast
the situation of the sisters.
I thought if she knew about
Laura's plight, she would
surely do something to help.
Was that wrong?
THE COUNCILS VIEW
Meddling is meddling, no
matter what the reason. We
may make a moral distinc-
ton between meddlers who
try to hurt others and those
who interfere in a situation
with the intention of helping.
But the distinction in terms
of results is usually not i'm
portant.
Bertha felt the transfer of
q little money from Betty's
pocket to Laura's would quite
simply improve Laura's life.
But emotions are closely tied
up with the possession of
money. That's why Bertha
bumped into a hornets nest.
The emotional relationship
between the two sisters and
between the sisters and their
husbands, as well as that
between the two men, were
involved in this situation.
It is hard to deal with an
emotional problem involving
two individuals. Bertha took
on a quadrangle.
Unless we can be of direct
aid, without intruding our
selves between emotionally
involved individuals, we would
do best to steer clear.

CONCORD. N. H., Mar. u

licans voted for Senator Ken
nedy, Democratic presidential
aspirant, in the New Hamp-
SHIRE primary March 8.
Ofncial figures disclosed last

Vice President Nixon received
"a Republican vote of 65,204. In
addition. he received 164 write
in votes on the Democratic bal
lot.
The Kennedy vote cut the
traditional 2-1 gap which
usually favors Republicans in
New Hampshire primaries. The
official figures show the G. o. P.
margin in Tuesdays primary
was 80.
Both the Kennedy and Nixon
votes were the greatest ever re-
ceived by a presidential candi-
date in their respective parties
in a New Hampshire primary.

My story was on page one,
under a one-column, top
head. I got free copies at the
Office, of course, but I walk
ed on up to Fourth avenue
and Church street, at the
corner cigar store and bought
a paper and stood there,
reading and thinking how
wonderful it was.
It was my murder story,
but there didn't seem to be
any rush to buy papers be-
cause of it. AS / recall, the
newsboy was hollering some
other headline.
All this brings me around
to the Finch murder case,
now concluded. It sold some
papers, though none knows
how many. But it also pro-
duced many complaints from
readers in every city where
the story of it was sensa-
tionally presented. Crime is
legitimate news. It is a part
of our civilization and must
be revealed. But save for a
relatively few papers which
pander to sensation, the
Finch case was no real help
to circulation. If anything,
1t evoked critical comment
where it was given undue
prominence.
This somehow pleases me.
I'm glad 1t didn't sell news
papers over the Nation.
Maybe it is a sign of grow
ing maturity. There is just
a chance that love-murders
aren't news, the way they
were when the tabloids
reaped such a harvest on
the Judd Gray-Ruth Snyder
and the Hall-Mills choir
murder cases. One never
knows. But one can hope
even one whose first by-line
was a rural candy box mur-
der which didn't sell any
papers. either. Maybe news
is coming of age, too.

Growing Newspaper Maturity Detected
In Handling of Finch Murder Trial

1t was really very simple.
Our first stop was at the
towns one drugstore. Yes,
the owner said, this man
Luttrell had bought some
strychnine and a box Of
candy. He had said the rats
were bad about his corn crib.
That took maybe five or
six minutes. We then drove
out to the Luttrell farm and
arrested Luttrell. He seemed
kind of relieved. Now that I
look back on it, there was a
sort of rural "Dragnet" quail
ity to it. We went into the
kitchen. There was an old
woodburning stove there, a
table with yellow oilcloth on
it. a safe" its doors open,
and a few straight chairs.
Luttrell was obviously ner-
vous. But for a while the de-
tectives talked about how
bad a thing it was, the poi
soning.
After a while one of the
detectives said, ed, why did
you do it?"
Luttrell looked at him with
a stunned. cowlike look but
before he could answer the
detective said, THE druggist
told US, Ed. We know all
about it."
Luttrell began to cry. He
sat there in a straight chair,
a gaunt, broken man, in
dirty overalls and work
shoes, and the sobs seemed
to tear out of his chest. Long,
long before the fires of ro-
nance had cooled he had
known the bargain was a
bad one.
They just let him sob and
after awhile he quieted and
said, II done it all right"
Tell us about it," they
said.
And he did, seeming to be
