Soviet Study
OfLonguoee
Discounted

Foreign language instruction
in Russia is not as advanced as
Americans are led to believe, a
Soviet-born college teacher
said last night.
Mrs. Helen B. Yakobson, who
heads George Washington Uni
versity's department of Slavic
languages, called language in
struction in Russian schools
conservative and traditional. /"
Mrs. Yakobson also said
methods now being used in
Russia to teach high school and
college students are being
criticized as ineffective here.
She said, however, that spe-
cialized language schools attain
excellent results and maintain
high standards.
Mrs. Yakobson spoke at a
panel discussion sponsored by
the Home and School Associa-
tion at Western High School.
Another speaker, DR.. Charles
E. Bish Of the National Educa-
ton Association, said criticism
Of the Obesity Of the school
curriculum" has some merits.

DEAR ABBY: Will you
please settle something for
US? We are A women who

ourselves THE CLUB.
Recently an elderly woman
in our town passed away.
She was the mother of one
Of our members.
THE CLUB sent a large
floral bouquet to the funeral.
Each members name was on
the card.
Don't you think that each
member was entitled to a
thank you" note? And
shouldn't the thank you"
notes have been sealed in an
envelope and mailed with a
&c stamp?
One letter of appreciation
written to THE CLUB presi-
dent, thanking all the men,
bers jointly would have
sufficed. Whether or not the
letter was mailed in a sealed
envelope with a &c stamp
seems to be a pretty petty
point.

DEAR ABBY: My husband
has absolutely no sense Of
values. He likes nice things
but he doesn't take care of
them.
When we were first mar
ried q months ago. he had
a nice wardrobe. But there
is practically nothing left Of
1t now. Everything is either
torn, lost, or he burned a
cigarette hole in it.
My husband thinks nothing
Of taking of his good clothes
and letting them drop right
on the floor. He wears his
good shoes to work every day
and will use a good T-shirt
to buff them. (He says 1t has
to go to the laundry anyway
Our nice collection of LIP
records would lay around out
Of their jackets collecting
dust and scratches II I didn't
take care of them. Our new
furniture has cigarette burns
and glass marks, and our
rugs are all stained from
things he has spilled. I am
broken-h earted and de-
pressed. Can you help me?

turned her little boy over to
you to finish raising. Face

The Golden Yeor Appeon eoeh
Thursday.
Evening star., 1960-03-24
By THOMAS COLLINS

All week long I have been
getting letters from lawyers
and judges who were protest.
ing the story / wrote about
the poor heirs who had to
wait two years to get the
money q retired father left
them.
So far as I can tell, the
letters have been from repu-
table men.
The story I wrote was ac-
curate. A lawyer should have
known this. I stated it was
what could happen in certain
States under certain circum-
stances. I wrote the column,
however, not Just to lay out
some facts, but because it was
symbolic of grave legal prob
lens people face as they grow
old-and which nobody seems
to be doing much about, ex-
cept in the case of the
wealthy.
When the normal person
in our time reaches IS he
must make several decisions
in the realm of law. Among
these decisions is the man
ner in which he retires from
his job, and the rights he
retains and forfeits in doing
so. Most people do not know
that basic rights are involved
here.
Other Questions Faced
Another decision which a
retired man must make con-
Germs the arrangement of his
financial affairs so that the
tax penalty on his frugality
will not be too great after
he dies.
A third decision is an
ironic one. He must antici-
pate death and must antici-
pate that he will leave be-
hind him dependents who
will go on living. In our
complex society the depen-
dents cannot just take what
he leaves, no matter how
nobly he anticipates or how
badly they need it. They
often have to wait for 10
days or two years to get even
enough Of the money to buy
groceries.
And then they must thank
a judge, a court, a lawyer,
a politician, a bank or some
body for letting them have
it. Dear Old Dad who left
1t is lost In the shuttle. The
claim of lawyers that all this
is to protect q mans estate
is not enough.
OF course. a surviving wife
can beat this If she's fast
on her feet. She can out
race the tax man to her
family'S safety deposit vault

THE GOLDEN YEARS
Lawyers Role Cited
In Bequest Issues

- where her husband has
hidden some cash for her.
This is hard for a widow to
do while the tears are still
in her eyes. Couldn't law
yers suggest a better way?
A fourth decision, and
probably the most serious Of
all, is the one that will gov
ern how his money in due
time will pass, reasonably in
tact. to the people he wants
to have 1t.
These are all decisions in
the lawyers province.
To say that lawyers have
not taken care of these deci-
sions for the great mass of
retired people is a thing that
should be said. Most people
die without wills. But it is
more important to say that
lawyers, somewhere along
the line, have failed to let
retired people know that
these are. legal decisions.
1t seems to me that the
legal profession cannot shrug
its shoulders and say people
should know all this. Many
people now retiring never
finished high school. They
don't know what they don't
know. Since the lawyers in
the main have written the
laws and since they and the
government are the ones who
have made our tax and in
heritance laws so compli-
Gated, there must be some
responsibility on their part
to let retired people know
what legal traps lie in front
Of them.
Legal Advice Urged
In this column I have told
retired people that they
should take this and that
problem to a good lawyer.
! have told them they can
contact a good lawyer
through the bar association.
I will continue to do this, be-
cause I am not a lawyer and
nobody but a lawyer can
solve their legal problems.
But I think it's about time
for the lawyers to meet the
old folks halfway.
! would like to see widows
Of retired men rescued from
the financial jungle left by
their husbands. I would like
to see retired people able to
leave their nest egg as they
choose. I think it would be
best for them to know that
they need a lawyer and can
trust one.

Question: What kind of
lumber is advisable for plant
ers to be used outdoors at the
edge of an open porch? I am
planning to construct several
during the approaching "in-
door" season.
Answer Redwood or cy-
press give excellent service for
this type of project; another
satisfactory wood is white
pine. Have you seen the
ready-made ones at garden
supplies dealers? They are
comparatively inexpensive.
Suggest lining the inside of
the planter to a depth of one
inch above the earth line
with "do-it-yourself" alumni
mum, being sure to solder cor
ners against water seepage.
It's good practice to bore
several holes through the bot
tom for excess moisture to
run off (through wood and
aluminum). If you do this,
and you use pine, treat the
wood with odorless wood pre-
ServatiVe first.

Mold in Closet

Question: What can we
do about mold that gets on
clothes hanging in clothes
closets and on side walls in
the bedrooms?
Answer: Mold is due to
moisture which promotes the
growth of the fungus. The
source of the moisture should
be located and corrected:
Check for flashings leaks
around chimneys, windows,
roof; roof leaks, moisture
from ground working up
through wall spaces; if walls
are brick, may be due to
plaster directly on the brick.
Clothes should be aired in
the sun; If washable, mold
can be removed with soap
and water, If not washable,
have garments dry cleaned.
Wash the wall surfaces with
a mild household bleach and
water to remove the mold.
Then apply a liquid mildew-
proofing preparation avail
able at large housewares
dealers and dealers in ma
rine supplies. To combat
moisture in the closets a
small electric "damp-chaser,"
a rod-like fixture that plugs
In and is inexpensive to OPP
crate, is available at some
electric appliance and house,
