These days so many of us
are concerned about teen
aged delinquenls. I have felt
right along that we have been
overlooking the most likely
cause: Delinquent parents. I
have received many letters
similar to the following from
unhappy youngsters:
DEAR DR.. STEINCROHN:
Recently, in your column, you
answered the letter of a girl
troubled with emotional ILL
ness. My problem is the same,
but it is more involved.
l am a 16-year-old girl.
In the first place. I am faith
erless. Ny father died when
I was just a baby. My STEP
father died Just two years
ago. He was very good to us
my mother, sister, two broth
ers and myself. But my moth
er and he were always fight
ing.
My mother would take to
drink after a fight with him.
Then she began seeing an
other man. Ny stepfather
begged her to stop seeing this
man, but she wouldn't listen.
She would go away for days
but my Stepfather always took
her back. Then the fighting
would start all over again.
AS it is now. my mother
Is going out with a lot of
different men, and stays out
all hours of the night and
usually comes home drums,
She thinks l am asleep But
sometimes I wonder if she
is coming home at all.
AS a result of this I started
gong out with anyone who'd
take me out. If anyone
started to get familiar with
me, instead of stopping him,
I would be so desperate for
love and security that I
would more or less encour-
age him, which I knew was
wrong.
AS a result of all of this
family trouble I was being
rejected in school. So 1
wanted to quit. My mother
doesn't seem to mind. But
J guess it's because she's
so involved in all her love
affairs.
Df. Stelncrohn, you ad-
vised tht other girl to con-
flde in her family doctor, but
/ have no doctor to confide
in. Will you please, if it is
al all possible, print this
letter in your column? l want
to be helped, but most of
all l want to know what I
can do to help myself-and

but she keeps seeing him.
He's exceptionally good
looking. Just the same I
think she ought to forget
him.
Pearl Ell know 1 ought
to forget about Rick, but 1
can't seem to get him out of
my mind. I go out on a date
and think I'm having a good
time. but the next day when
I see Rick in the Office I
realize I haven't really en-
joyed myself. I would have
been happier with Rick-even
If there's no future in it.
My parents agree with
Marian, but they don't real
ize it's not so easy to forget
someone you care about.
Emotions don't work that
way.
I think one of these days
Rick will straighten him
self out and then he'll be
just marvellous. He has
limited I'm the only girl he
ever felt a real attachment
for. I'm just hoping.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
When an individual con-
ceives an attachment for
someone or something not
designed to promote his own
happiness and well-being, it
is usually because he is seek
ing punishment for some real
or imagined guilt or because
he is afraid of something
else.
In Pearls case, both things
may be true. 1t is entirely
possible that she wants to
suffer and that she is fearful
of marriage. The best way
out Of a situation like this
is to face it, recognize it
for what 1t is and avoid let
ting it become an ingrown
pattern of behavior.
Pearl should avoid Rick
like the plague-not simply
because he isn't interested in
marriage but because ne rep
resents a real threat to her
emotional DEVELOPMENT. AS
long as she can keep herself
free Of the wrong kind
of emotional entanglements
there is a good chance she
will mature.
Pearl should leave the Job
that puts her in close contact
with Rick and find one that
will throw her into contact
with healthier young men.

Speedup in
Polio Shots

DR.. Leroy e. Burney, Surgeon
General of the United States
Public Health Service, today
issued an urgent plea to the
American people to speed up
polio vaccinations.
The service. he said, has re-
ceived reports of vaccination
status on $40 paralytic polio
cases so far this year. OF these,
166 had no vaccine.
Most Of the 166 could have
been prevented, because the
basic three doses and booster
shot are 80 per cent effective,
he said.
Although less than half as
many cases have been reported
SO far this year as at the same
time last year, the dangerous
period is still to come, DR..
Burney said.
In the first 80 weeks of 1860,
the States reported 610 para
lytic cases, as compared to 1888
cases for the same period in
1859. In eight States and the
District no paralytic cases have

House Probe

TRENTON, N. j., Aug. 5
(AP).-Gov. Robert B. Meyner
has started a Nation wide drive
to block a congressional probe
into secret papers of the Port
OF New York Authority.
In a letter sent to the 49
other Governors and 10 all the
Representatives, released today,
Gov. Meyner said a dangerous
precedent" may be set.
A House committee headed
by Representative Celler, Demo-
crat of New York, has recon-
mended a contempt citation
against three authority off,
cials who refused to give up
confidential records. The full
House returns August Is and
may consider the contempt
charges.
The authority's commission
ers contend the House COM
mittee's demand for the rec
ords represents unjustified Fed
eral interference.
Gov. Meyner told the Gov
ernors that each should repu-
diate Mr.. Celler's claim that
Congress may probe internal
affairs of any State agency
providing defense facilities in
interstate commerce.
What we have here is the
first congressional Investigation
of a State agency in history
and the first formal proposal to
cite State officers for contempt
OF Congress, Gov. Meyner wrote.

This threatens society's most
fundamental institution, the

upon those least able to carry
the load adequately. We must
be concerned about this blight
and must remember that our
social institutions cannot pos
sibly take care of all the girls

DR.. Orso praised local Lu-

the problem of housing the
aged.
THE Lutheran Laymen's
Fellowship should consider the
possibility of building CO.
operative apartments for old
people," he added. There is
considerable interest among our

Note
Extortion'

A promiSory note form used
to collect Washington Hospital
Center bills was labeled a form
OF extortion yesterday by Mu-
nicipal Court Judge Edward A.
Beard.
He said the wording Of the
note seemed to intimate that if
it wasn't signed, the patient
would not be released from the
hospital.
Edwin B. Fuller, the hospital
collection manager, denied the
charge. Il can't hold a patient
in the hospital or put a patient
out" he said. He argued that
the note was designed only as
a means of assuring payment.
Judge Boards charge came
up during a hearing into a
$102.20 overdue hospital bill of
Joseph j. Entwisle, "A, of 5000
Wisconsin avenue NV. The
hospital won it's case.
Mr.. Entwisle told Judge
Beard his mother had signed a
pronissory note for a $258.4O
bill for an earlier stay at the
hospital.
The note form begins: For
and in consideration Of services
rendered and release Of ----,
I agree to pay. :"
Mr.. Fuller said after the
hearing he plans to discuss the
form with hospital attorneys.
He said the hospital accumu-
lates about $4,000 a month in

Liberal Democratic Senators
united today in sealing down
provisions Of the Federal aid
to education bill to give the
measure a better chance of
passing.
Senators Monroney Of Okla
homa and Clark of Pennsylva-
mia cut back the original liberal
school plan from four to two
years in the belief this will
muster a majority.
If adopted. this would allo-
cate $500 million of Federal
funds to the States in each of
two years. either for buildings
or teachers salaries.
The liberals were blocked by
Vice President Nixon last night
in their first attempt to ex-
pand the bill.
The first move by Senator
Clark would have given the
States $1.1 billion next year
for both buildings and teach
er's salaries. Near the end of
a marathon session which ran
past II pm. it lost on a "A
to-44 vote.
Nixon Seals Defeat
Mr.. Nixon, who could have
put the amendment over, did
not vote. but later he sealed
its defeat by breaking the tie
to prevent a reconsideration.
The bill, which came from
the Labor and Welfare Com
mittee, is limited to $500 mil
lion in each of two years for
