that. but his mother seems
to think she'll yet make him
President.

his homework. She is de-
termined to keep him up with
his class. She thinks che

Carol B.-Dennis has al
ways put Gary down. Ac-
cording to him, Gary isn't fit
to be anything but a dish
washer. It's not true that
I'm trying to make Gary
President, but I do think he
can become a chemist. From
my observation of Dennis, I
don't think you have to be
q genius for that.
Gary's teachers tell me
they are surprised at what
he can do sometimes when
he is interested. What is
the harm Of trying to help
him accomplish something
he really wants? He knows
it's going to be tough, but
he's willing to work. Dennis
says he wants to save us both
from an awful let-down, but
I'm determined to prove to
him his son is worth some
thing.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
Gary's desire to follow his
fathers profession is healthy
sign and shouldn't be dis
couraged at this stage. 1t in
dicates admiration for his
father. Dennis is foolish to
display his lack of confidence
in his son. 1t is remarkable
that Gary hasn't already lost
his ambition and initiative,
having been so long exposed
to his fathers negative atti-
tude.
Certainly. we are not in
favor of attempting to push
children beyond their abili-
ties, but most children and
adults use only a small part
OF their potential powers.
The child who is willing to
work to achieve something
should get help and encour-
agement. Whether Gary can
make college or become a
chemist he is undoubtedly
worth" a great deal.
The boy shouldn't be de-
pendent upon his mother for
help with his homework. An
occasional lift over a hurdle
is legitimate, but the child
who is accustomed to con-
slant adult aid will never
learn to go along on his own
steam.

How to
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF,
Temper Outbursts Can Be Fatal
By DR.. PETER }. sTEINcRoHN

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: I
tell my husband he is going
to kill himself one of these
days in a temper outburst.
He just laughs it off. He says
it's better to blow off steam
than keep it bottled up in
side. I wouldn't worry if he
hadn't had a coronary
thrombosis last year. Tenn
per is bad for coronary dis
ease, isn't it? Sincerely, Mrs.
E., Buffalo, N. Y.
YEARS AGO one of the
worlds greatest coronary
specialists suffered from an
gina pectoris. He used to say
that a heart patients life
is often at the mercy of his
temper. One day he proved
it the hard way. He died
suddenly in a fit of temper.
For years I have been tell
ing my coronary patients:
I'D rather have you skip
up a half-dozen flights of
stairs with a peaceful mind
and an empty stomach, than
let your temper get the best
of you"
In the beginning there was
no real scientific evidence
such as is found in labora-
tories-to prove my point.
All I could do was sense the
potential dangers. You really
didn't need to be a doctor
to realize that unbridled
emotion is bad.
What's good about getting
so mad that your pulse races
like a whipped horse; when
your face becomes either
white and bloodleSs or fiery
red; when your knuckles al.

the amazingly large number

Eisenhower Steams Toward Formosa
Aboard Heavily-Cuarded Navy Cruiser

EN- ROUTE WITH Essen
HOVER, tR - President Eisen-
hover steamed north toward the
Nationalist Chinese island fort
ress of Formosa today as Chinese
Communist guns bombarded the
offshore islands, 10 miles from
his destination.
Peiping Radio said the pound
ing by thousands of guns was a
display of contempt and scorn"
for the U. S. President.
The U. S. 7th Fleet kept un-
tagging vigil around the Presi-
dental vessel. The fleet COM
mander, Vice Adm. Charles D.
Griffin, had predicted the Com
munists might we'll do some
thing" further to mar the Eisen-
hover trip, already bighted by
cancellation of his visit to Japan.
Eisenhower slept late this
morning aboard the heavy cruiser
st. Paul, flagship of the fleet. He
worked for while on his revised
trip schedule, then planned an
afternoon of relaxation. He had
appeared weary and grim as he
boarded the cruiser late Thursday
night in Manila Bay after his tre-
mendous reception in the Philip
pines and the disappointing can
collation. of his visit to Tokyo. ;
White House Press Secretary
Hagerty told newsmen the Pres
ident did not believe the blowup
of his Tokyo visit had marred his
prestige or hurt U. S. national
interests. He has been in touch
with the State Department but
has received no messages thus
far from U. S. Congressional
leaders, Hagerty added.
1t was no secret, however, that
Eisenhower was unhappy that he
was not going to Japan because
of Communist-inspired violence.

State Collects
Half-MilliOn In
Voluntary Tax

JUNEAU, Up - More than half
a million dollars in voluntary
payments have been received in
the last three months under the
1949 Alaska General Property
Tax, the Governors Office re-
ported today.
The collections were made after
the U. S. Supreme Court upheld
Alaska's contention that repeal of
the property levy in 1858 did not
forgive tax liabilities incurred
during the three years the law
was on the books.
The largest single voluntary
payment amounted to $137,725 by
the United States Smelling, Re-
filming and Mining Co. Included
among other payments were taxes
owed by some companies which
opposed state efforts to collect the
assessments in the long court
battle.
The Governors Office said the
voluntary receipts conceded with
action by the state in filing more
than 100 complaints against de-
linquent taxpayers for personal
liability on the property levy. Ad-
ditional complaints will be filed
in the future, the Governor said.
Peter Gatz, State Commissioner
of Revenue, said it had been de-
partment policy to seek voluntary
payment by billing procedures,
before resorting to legal action.

Senate Dares Veto BY
Passing Federal Pay Bill

WASHINGTON, R - Daring a
veto, the Senate today sent Pre-
sident Eisenhower a bill to raise
the pay of 112 million Civil Ser
vice and Postal workers by about
746 million dollars a year.
Two days ago, the House passed
this very same measure by a
377-40 count, far more than two
thirds majority. 1t acted in the
face of flat veto prediction by
House Republican Leader Charles
A. Halleck of Indiana.
The measure would give one
million federal workers a pay
boost of 712 per cent. In addition,
half million postal employees
would receive salary increase av-
eraging 8.4 per cent.

that the warming of Arctic waters

bring about the start of new

This could occur, he said, be-
cause warming the Arctic. could
slowly melt the Polar ice cap. But
the melting occasioned by warm
er summers would make for more
evaporation, more clouds and
more precipitation and finally
heavier snowfall in winter.
The pileup of excessive snow
would make the Arctic region
whittier than ever. The white sur

Kishi Government
Hangs On Despite
Mounting Turmoil
BY GENE KRAMER


TOKYO, R g japanese leftists
pressed their advantage and sent
$4,000 demonstrators dancing and
chanting around Japan's Diet
building today in drive to block
the military alliance with the
United States. A Socialist legis-
lator was stabbed during the
melee.
But Premier Kishi's govern
ment was determined to stay in
office, until the new treaty with
America comes into force Sunday.
After that, government
spokesman said, elections will be
called and Kishi's Liberal-Demo-
cratic Party will seek a popular
mandate for new laws to curb
violence. He accused the postwar
American occupation of weaken
ing Japan and it's police so that
present international Communism
can carry out its activities quite
freely"
The demonstrators taunted the
police with cries of Cool" Some
threw stones at police. Many beat
sticks on the walls of he COM
pound.
The crowd probably was
spurred by the memory of Wed
nesday's riot, when police re-
Trained from using their pistols
and waited for hours before Or
ders came to use tear gas.
The government has been fear
full of raising the specter of the
brutal and efficient prewar Jap
aneSe police. Fears of a revival
of police power were major fac
tor in U. S. occupation policy to
put the police under strict civil
liam control.
"Down with Kishi, Down with
the treaty." demonstrators yelled
in their rhythmic chant, keeping
time with the shuttle of feet.
kosaku Shinoda, spokesman for
Kishi's Liberal-Democratic Party,
told newsmen he believed the
Premier would resign after rati-
fication of the treaty providing
for u. S. military bases in Japan
for at least another 10 years.
IF Kishi goes there will be
new leader for the Liberal-Dem-
ocratic Party and with that a lot
of the hate will leave"
He said the 64-year-old Pre-
mier "has become more or less
a scapegoat
"He has taken on his shoulders
all the hatred against conserva-
tives, against Americans, against
everything" Shinoda said.

Eisenhower Says
Reds Responsible
For Tokyo Riots
BY MARVIN L. ARRowsM1TH

EN- ROUTE WITH Essen
HOVER, R - 1t was learned to-
day that President Eisenhower
believes the Chinese Communists,
with the aim of making anti
American propaganda. are respon-
sible for blocking his visit to
Tokyo.
The President, sailing aboard
the cruiser St. Paul for Formosa,
is known to hold these views:
The Chinese Communists acted
in much the same way that Soviet
Russia seized on the incident of
the U-2 spy plane to wreck the
summit conference.
1t is evident that all is not
well between the Soviet Union
and Red China.
The President believes Russian
and Chinese Communist leaders
are most unhappy about the
warm mass receptions he received
in many countries during his far
ranging travels in the last 10
months.
On the basis of information
from well informed sources, the
President is convinced Nikita
Khrushchev decided he did not
want President Eisenhower to
visit Moscow In this view,
Khrushchev yanked back his in
vitation to Eisenhower and said
he was doing so because of the
incident involving the w. spy
plane.
The President concluded that
one of the reasons underlying
Khrushchev's actions at the sum-
init conference in Paris month
ago was that the Soviet Premier
did not want Eisenhower to visit
Moscow.
The President does not seem to
be particularly downhearted or
discouraged by cancellation of the
Tokyo visit He feels the warm re-
ception he received in Manila off
set to some extent the negative
aspects of this first visit to the
Far East by u. S. President.
And he still believes there are
benefits to be gained from per-
sonal diplomacy by an American
President.

California Key

SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 7
(AP). - California political
leaders, true to their own
parties. differed widely today
on the outcome of the presi-
dental race in the State.
They joined, however, in
voicing the same message to
the rs million eligible Cali
fornians: Vote!
Gov. Edmund G. (Pat.) Brown,
a Democrat, doesn't think the
vote will be close. He tabs
Senator Kennedy the winner
by a million votes.
Secretary of State Frank M.
Jordan, a Republican, predicts
California will go to Vice Pres
ident Nixon by 100000.
Other Democrats and Re-
publicans, especially those on
the campaign firing line, range
far lower in their estimates of
the winning margin for their
ticket.
Republicans were buoyed by
Mr.. Nixon's own estimate after
winding up his appeal for 80
home State electoral votes.
1.-THE tide is now running
our way" he said in Los An
geles yesterday.
Two imponderables brought
a note of caution to the state
ments of party spokesmen.
Democrats weren't certain
how the religion issue would
affect the voting.
Republicans looked nervously
at the 80 Democratic edge in
voter registration. G. o. P.
leaders figure the Nixon-Lodge
ticket must get 80 per cent of
the Republican vote and 18 to
20 per cent of the Democratic
in order to carry California.
