SEND A KID TO CAMP
Outing Will Help
Erase Boys Fears

Jimmy is only 10 years old
but his life has been crowded
with fear.
Although his father, an alco-
holic, died recently, Jimmy
cannot erase the frightening
ugly memory of what life was
like when his father was alive.
He still remembers those
terror filled nights in the fam
ily's cramped apartment when
his drunken father would
brutally beat his mother. And
he can't forget those long days
when there wasn't enough to
eat because his father had
spent the money on liquor or
was out of work and couldn't
buy food.
There are many emotional
wounds which won't heal for a
long time-and maybe some
that never will. But for two
weeks this summer, Jimmy will
live the kind of life he has
dreamed of but never known.
He'll be at a summer camp
where he can play with boys
his own age, receive training in
arts and crafts, be taught to
swim by a trained counselor
and be served as much food as
he can eat.

dreds of youngsters whose ugly
lives are made a little brighter

The jam was caused by a

Why THE SUMMIT CONFERENCE BROKE UP

BABSON PARK, Mass, May 81
1t does not seem reasonable that
the Summit Conference of the four
largest world governments broke
up suddenly in a turmoil without a
cause.
THE SPY INCIDENT
Khrushchev must have known
for a long time that we were fly
ing spy planes over Russia and
that it was a routine thing with
our Intelligence Service. Surely
it could not have been the real
reason for the Summit Conference
breakup. Something else must
have happened to cause Khrush-
chev to give President Eisenhow-
er an ultimatum and demand the
abject apology which Khrushchev,
of course, knew he would not get.
1t also was a general surprise
when President Eisenhower indi-
Gated that the U-2 spying would be
suspended, at least for the time be-
ing, though many interpret this as
a final cancellation Many rumors
are flying in the various capital
cities as to the reasons for the
collapse of the Summit Conference
and the calling off of the spying.
A REAL PROBABLE REASON.
When / was in Moscow a short
time ago, l heard the United States
bases discussed. The United
States, it was said, was depending
mainly upon these missile bases
which surround the Russian en-
pire. Furthermore, it was under
stood that in the event of the out
break of World War III, these
missile bases would be the first
targets of attack; that is, Russia
would first try to destroy these.

Use Points
To Express Feelings

Maybe Andy's painting repre-
sented the river and a boat, maybe
it didn't. Andy surely didn't know
and couldn't have said in words
why he painted as he did, but OBJ
viously the experience was very
satisfactory one for him.
AS little children become more
familiar with paints they become
freer in their ability to express
how they feel. They can "say" with
paints what they do not know how
to say in words. The very express
sion of their feelings is satisfying
to the youngsters.
Ted was an aggressive little four
year-old who bullied his way
around. He loved to paint and
splashed out his feelings in vivid
colors and formless blobs. He was
usually a little more tractable af-
ter a time at the easel. He had
said with paints how he felt and
the very saying made him more
comfortable.
Timid children, too, benefit from
having a way to SAY how they
feel. Carol was shy, mOusey lit
tie four-year-old. When she first
began to paint she made tiny little
dots and lines in one corner of the
paper but as time went on she ven-
tured further and further across
the paper with bolder strokes.
Almost all children benefit from
having a way to express how they
feel about themselves and the peo-
pie they live with.
If you can supply your children
with a medium like painting by all
means to do.
And don't try to psychoanalyze
their paintings. You will get into
lot of trouble. Even experts find
it next to impossible to draw con-
clusions about a child from his
paintings. Even without under
standing what the painting means
the child benefits by having said
it

MEMORIAL DAY

When the commander-in chief of the
Grand Army Of the Republic, General John
A. Logan, issued the order designating May
Both, 1868, as day for decorating the graves
of the men who fell in the War Between the
States, he expressed the hope that it would
be observed "from year to year while sur
Vivor of the war remains to honor the mem
ory of the departed"
: The custom of thus paying homage to the
war dead, which had originated in the South
and represented at that time only spOntane-
Gus local activity on the part of a relatively
few women and children, thus came into be-
ing.
The appeal of such an annual commemOr-
alton to large numbers of people was soon
demonstrated throughout the reunited Re-
public.
By 1900, President William Mckinley,
himself a Union veteran, declared, "The
Army of Grant and the Army of Lee are to-
gether. They are one now in faith, in hope,
in fraternity, in purpose and in invincible
patriotism"
Memorial Day, observed annually since
that time, reminds us that human freedom
was bought at great price, and that any
thing we would have here in this country
must be obtained and preserved by hard
work and consecrated effort

that the u. S. bombers were to be
gradually withdrawn following the
U. S. Defense Departments dis
agreement as to whether we should
depend upon bombers or upon mis-
siles and rockets. This may have
been another Eisenhower COM
promise" Also when in Russia, I
heard much about rocketry and
missilry. Rockets are necessary to
perform stunts in space, such as
going around the moon; but there
are various types of missiles that
are sufficient for fighting on land
or water. They can be fired from
East Germany to any city in the
United States, or from any of our
cities to Russia.
WHAT KHRUSHCHEV KNEW
ABOUT BASES
What may have made Khrush-
chev so ugly and insistent on an
apology from Eisenhower is that
he was just learning of these mo-
bile bases. For instance, now most
rocket bases are fixed. Eisenhow-
er, however, was probably inform
ed that the mobile rocket bases
are a practical success. If this is
true, the United States may have
no further need of spies to dis
cover rocket bases in Russia Fur
thermOre, the United States may
be able to give up rocket bases in
countries now surrounding Rus

and they both ran to the opposite

held on to hedge tree, literally

this they could verify. After the

Not only was the couple covered

Dear Friends:
Hayes was busy last week pre-
pairing and taking his annual stand
board ride proficiency test. It
was and always is a big relief to
put behind him Besides this task
he was also appointed MARS di-
rector (amateur radio station at
F0rbes). This made his week ra-
ther full. Krushchev and his ac-
tions at the summit, a base alert
and Dawnie flying up" from a
Brownie to scout seemed to be
enough to complete any full weeks
activity, but it wasn't.
Tuesday evening our street of
McAlister was lined on either side
with chattering, pointing neigh
bors. We were all on the street
looking north at the fascinating,
but wicked looking clouds. From
the transitors that the children
held in their hands we heard the To-
cation of the whirling tOrnadoes
and at the same time could watch
the dark clouds bringing their de-
struction to the small farming
communities miles north of To-
peka. The papers the following
morning estimated damage over
five million dollars and over go
people were treated in the hospi-
tai Miraculously there was only
one death. We finally went to a
neighbor's basement when we were
warned to take shelter and with
twelve others there we felt calm
and unafraid, but one story in the
paper the following morning told
of a man and his wife travelling in
their car, who must have longed
for similar safety. They saw the
funnel heading their way and stop
ped their car and hunted for a
ravine to hide in. A farmers house
was near by, but they felt time

Little children love to dabble in
paints.
If you fix them up with a suitable
place and a little equipment, both
you and your child will enjoy the
painting.
But don't expect a toddler to
paint pictures. Many grOwn-ups
have the notion that whenever a
child paints, he must be copying
something he has seen. But this is
far from the truth. Little children
seldom paint THINGS. 1t is often
the act of painting not the finish
ed product that interests the child.
Adults think of painting as an
art form, but pre-schOol children
do not know about art. They ap-
proach painting, as they do other
forms of actiyity-as something to
do, and it is the doing that's i'm
portant, not the finished painting.
Children paint what they feel, not
what they see. Instead of using
paints to make pictures that re-
present the world in which they
live, little children are express
ing what they feel and how they
feel.
The adult who comes along and
asks a little child, What are you
painting?" only cOnfuses the
yOungster.
Three-year old Andy picked UP
the brush, dipped it into the red
paint and made a straight line
iown one side of the paper; then
ne made a wavy line at the bottom.
All the time he was chanting to
himself: "Ferryboat, ferryboat, fer
.yboat on the river" Andy dipped
in for some more red paint and
added some curlycues and a few
big blobs; then he put his brush
down and turned to his mother.

THE TRUMAN INFLUENCE

Former President Truman's endorsement
of his fellow Missourian, Senator Stuart
Symington, for the presidency will certainly
be a help. How much of help is less sure.
Just before the 1856 convention, Truman
came out for New York's Governor Averell
Hartman. BY that time it was too late.
Most of the hesitant delegates had then made
up their minds. Perhaps profiting from this
experience, the Truman endorsement is now
made two months before the convention.
The former presidents blessing has pre-
viously not helped much in his own Missouri.
Both that states senator's, Thomas G. Hen
ings Jr., and Symington himself, were elect
ed despite Truman's stated preference for
other candidates.
Ex-presidents and former presidential
nominees have rarely tried to pick their sue
cessors. The last Democrat to do so was
William Jennings Bryan, who had habit of
suggesting other possibilities when accused
of pre-empting the field for himself. Almost
all were local figures, an Illinois county
judge, an ex-governor of Pennsylvania and
the like, estimable persons unknown to the
country at large, and by no means capable
of imperiling Bryan's supremacy.
Truman cannot be accused of emulating
Bryan. At rs he neither expects nor wants
another nomination. Yet though he is GER
tainly trying to help the party, the delegates
are likely to do their own picking.

Furthermore, at junction points it
could be shifted to another rail-
road. OF course, Russia will also

OTHER POSSIBLE REASONS FOR
KHRUSHCHEV'S SUDDEN
LEAVING
Khrushchev probably had news
from Moscow which caused him to
destroy the meeting before it OPP
ened. 1t may have been some action
of the Presidium directly after he
left Moscow, or he may have felt
that some other man was looking
for his job and he had to be home
to protect it. He may have heard
that the younger element in Mos
COW is getting aroused, as in other
countries, demanding reduced ar
mament expenditures so that they
may have more consumer goods.
He may have been Informed before
the meeting that he would not get
satisfactory action on Berlin.
Finally, Khrushchev must have
been anxious to get home to speed
work on his submarine feet, as
submarines will eventually take
the place of all land bases, fixed
or mobile The Chinese Govern
ment, too, may have passed along
threats to him which he could not
ignore. At any rate. knowing he
was blocked on all the most crucial
subjects, he saw that it would be

THE FOOL AND HIS MONEY

In the spring of 1859 the New York
Stock Exchange inaugurated a cautionary
program, designed to reduce reckless and
uniformed market speculation. Happily, it
recently was reported, the program largely
attained the objective. This kind of specu-
lation has shown a marked drop.
Keith Funston, the Exchanges president,
has made another highly important recon-
mendation-that new and inexperienced in
vestors appraise their investment detectives
carefully and seek regularity of income and
gradual growth of capital from their invest
ments rather than quick profits. This simply
recognizes the fact that people who enter the
stock market with the intention of getting
rich in hurry are almost inevitably fore
doomed to deep trouble. These are the peo-
pie who are easy prey for tipsters and high
powered stock statesmen. The promise of
enormous profits in practically no time seems
to totally obscure their judgment
If there is one principle which should
guide anyone's investment philosophy, it is
this Investigate before you invest" The
statute books are loaded with laws intended
to protect the investing public. The ex-
changes have put stiff regulations into effect
on their own hook. But all the laws and reg
ulations imaginable can't do the whole job.
1t is still true that the fool and his money are
soon parted.
Meanwhile, Peoples Capitalism con-
tinues to grow. Well over 12,500,0 900 indivd-
uals now own shares in American corpora
tions. The great majority of them are pru-
dent, intelligent, and careful investors who
look before they leap. But there is still
minority that needs to follow the kind of ad-
vice Mr.. Funston has given.
