each difficult juncture in
stead of trying to pass it
on as something ordinary it
is wiser to say it viii be
difficult. Even to exaggerate
it a bit. If done rightly the
child will not be frightened
but will be more ready to
face the situation" This be-
lief is born of and borne
out by experience, she said.
When young Sanjiv was
facing an operation she
didn't try to beguile him by
saying that it would be with
out pain and be over in no
time. Instead" Mrs. Gandhi
related, Il told him: Look
Sanity, the operation will be
painful. If it were possible
I would gladly suffer the
pain for you. But it isn't.
So you will have to bear
your own pain and you can
decide how you want to bear
it. You can cry it off If YOU
like. No one viii think the
worse of you for it."
He lay quiet and restful

is not as painful as you said
it would be mommy."
The Truth
Whether the children are
little or grown up, as long
as they come to their parents
for answers to their search,
parents should always do
their best to satisfy that
curiosity, Mrs. Gandhi feels.
My father never told me
when asked him something,
Now go away, 1 am too busy
to answer your questions I
have tried to do the same
with my children" she said.
Mrs. Gandhi, who is her
fathers official hostess and
his constant companion, is a
Woodworking member of sew
eral national and inter-
national committees and
organizations, among them
UNESCO's executive board.
She feels that regardless of
how busy one is one should
always have time for chill
dren. You can fit in your
time with them if you are
careful" she said.
THE important thing is"
she added. that they should
not, especially when they are
rather young. feel your alb
sence." She gave an example
of her 1853 trip to England
for the Queens coronation.
She had preceded her father
and was staying at a friends
house with the children. AT
the outset I stayed home all
the time. Then I felt was
wasting my trip. So I went
to museums when they

to the theaters after putting
them into bed for the night"
Things went well until her
father arrived and they
moved to the Indian En-
baSsy. There the children
were accorded generous in
diligence and allowed to stay
up late or miss their after
noon nap. Their mother
didn't know this. II found

and cantankerous with me. 1t
was some time before I found
out why" She explained, in
stead of being asleep when I
was away they were wonder
ing when I would return.
They had begun to notice my
absence and resent it."
On the other hand, Mrs.
Gandhi is equally firm that
children should realize that
their parents are human be-
ings and have their own
needs and limitations.
This awareness keeps them
from being tyrants. 1t also
helps them find proper out
lets and other interests.
Small Home
She recalled a time in 1946
when she had moved to Delhi
with her husband, the late
Feroze Gandhi. The house in
Delhi was small compared to
her fathers palatial house
Anand Bhavan in Allahabad.
Everyone was wrapped up in
the Constituent Assembly
meetings. Enter ia inment
made heavy demands. "All
this combined with the COM

he was not the one to hide
his discomfort. The whole
house resounded with his
cries frequently" Mrs. Gan
dhi related. aiding. This
was the last STRAW" She re-
called her pleading, "Rajiv,
your cries are splitting my
head" which we're countered
with, What can I do? I can't
help crying. 1t comes"
She understood his dis
content. So they agreed to a
gentlemen's agreement. II
told Rajiv, 1 know you have
reason to cry, and if you
want to, please do so. Only
you must concede me one
thing, whenever crying seizes
you just run out into the
garden and cry near the
pond" She concluded, the
running into the garden took
some Of his energy and the
flowers and the fish took his
attention and in a few days
he no longer was seized with
fits of crying" Altogether it
seemed Mrs. Gandhi had
been successful in putting
her theory into practice.

NEW DELHI, India. The
best way to bring up chill
dren is to treat them like
grown-ups. This is the firm
belief of Indira Gandhi,
daughter of midas Prime
Minister Jawaharlal Nehru.
Il have found it always
pays to be frank with chill
dren and take them into your
confidence. If there are
things they want which you
can't give or do for them
they will accept it if you
explain why" she said.
Mrs. Gandhi, who is usually
heard discoursing on such
serious subjects as national
indignation and world disarm-
ament. talked avidly about
children throughout an in
terview at her home. And
well might she talk of chill
dren. She has successfully
faced the difficult task of
bringing up two sons, now
strapping lads of l8 and 16,
subjected to limelight since
their birth, and welfare work
for Indian children has al
ways been one of her major
activities. This continues to be
a matter Of intense concern
and pleasure to her.
Treating them like grown
ups doesn't mean expecting
them to react and behave
like adults" Mrs. Gandhi ex-
planned, 1T means taking as
much pains convincing them
as one does convincing older
people,"
AwareneSs
Also" she added: II think
it is better to start making
them aware, as early as pos
sible that they will have to-
face life standing on their
own feet" AS she was say
ing this. that is exactly what
her two sons were doing. The
elder, Rajiv very much on
his own feet was facing
exams in Cambridge.
Younger son, Sanjiv's feet
were busy treking streams in
search of trout, also far
away from home. Quite how
far, his mother didn't ex-
actly know.
Mrs. Gandhi thinks par
entS, particularly Indian par
ents. tend to shield children
too much. They would
rather speak only of pleasant
lighter aspects of life to their
children" She said she would
rather "let children see life
as fully and realistically as
possible" How much beauty
they will find in that reality
and how worth while its
pains, Mrs. Gandhi added,
will depend on the values
and the moral courage one

Liberals Push
Hopeless Fight
On Rights Bill
BY J. A. O'LEARY, sr.
star staff writer

A bipartisan GROUP of lib
erals continued the fight today
to keep the literacy bin before
the Senate. although there was
no apparent chance remaining
Of passing it this year.
There is q $3.50 chance the
battle win end this afternoon
with the adoption Of the
motion Of Democratic Leader
Mansfield to take up a House
bin regulating textile imports.
This would automatically side
track the hteracy issue until
next year.
But the liberals could keen
the issue alive until tomorrow
II they felt they were gaining
any ground.
For the past two weeks most
Of the time has been taken UP
by Southern speeches against
the literacy bill. -
After the second attempt
failed yesterday to invoke clo-
ture to limit debate, the liberals
began making speeches for the
bill and in defense Of its con-
Stitutionality.
The second vote on cloture
showed SO against and only a
in favor of limiting debate. In
stead of making the gains they
had expected, the supporters OF
cloture actually had one vote
fewer than the first roll call
last Wednesday. The vote then
was So against and 43 for.
Senator Mansfield decided
yesterday that If cloture could
not be obtained nothing was to
be gained by keeping the liter
acy issue before the Senate.
Accordingly, he moved tc
proceed with the textile mea-
sure. Despite their two defeats
on cloture. the liberals insisted
that the fight should go on for
q bill that would establish a
sixth-grade education as the
literacy standard for voting.

Military Slash
Rumor Denied

Defense Secretary Mcnamara
heatedly denied to a Senate
Appropriations Subcommittee
today that a Pentagon plan to
reduce the number Of National
Guard and Army Reserve di-
visions originated with a So
year-old employe who was a
sergeant in World War II.
mo ex-sergeant, no 36-year-
old civilian, no one poorly in
formed or inexperienced had a
damn thing to do with the
plan" the Secretary snapped.
Senator Robertson. Democrat
of Virginia. acting chairman of
the subcommittee, called the
Reorganization of the Guard
and the Reserve units the most
controversial item in the De-
tense budget and said he had
heard a rumor that the idea
came from a World War II SER
Igeant.
THAT is absolutely incorrect"
Mr.. Mcnamara replied.
The Secretary said there are
only two experts he should
listen to-the chairman Of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff and the
Army Chief Of Staff.
No names were mentioned as
to who might have come up
with the reserve plan. but II
generally is credited to Army
Undersecretary Stephen Allies
The defense budget recon-
mended that personnel for the
National Guard be reduced
from 400, 900 to 367, 900 and the
Army Reserve from 100000 to
275, 900.
The House, in effect, disap-
proved by allowing funds for
the present strength Of both
the Guard and the Reserve.
In his prepared testimony
today Mr. Mcnamara asked
that the Senate retain The
House figures for this purpose
as well as the additional funds
allowed by the House for the
controversial RS-70 and Dyna-
soar programs. but he made
no firm promise to spend al
Of this money.
To Restudy Spending
He said that in view Of the
strong congressional interest
in these matters he win want
to restudy each Of them but
is not prepared to say how
much Of the additional funds
should be spent In the coming
year.
Senator Robertson and SEN
ator Stennis, Democrat Of Mis-
sissippi, both indicated there
is a strong interest in main
tanning the National Guard and
Reserve force. Senator Stennis
said the Berlin Gallup Of re-
ServistS demonstrated value OF
these reserve units.
Mr.. McNamara explained
! that the Defense Department
. intends to keep in the National
Guard all men who want to re-
. main and that the chief pur-
pose of the reorganization Is tC
/, get rid Of obsolete units and
to organize new units to keep
pace with changes in weapons
> and military requirements.
