happened after the meeting.
Probably not much did. Once Q

cided that lawns shall be MAIN

householders will be plucky
enough to become the obtrusive

themselves targets Of the collec-
tive's gossip.
Is Nom on "Odd BoII?"
Some of the anti-coddlers
we have met In these pages
are beginning to weaken. A
case in point Is that Of the
Michigan housewife who wrote
me that she needed counsel
because she was Stunned, "
"derided," and treated as an
odd ball" since her children
had assigned chores around
the house and walked to school
and to the shopping center.
Even a tough old cop like
Mike Bonamarte feels he is
losing ground. He objects to
his 13-year-old daughter wear
ing falsies in her bathing suit.
But her friends wear them
and so he doesn't want her
to be different and therefore
unhappy.
Usually I tell the kids to
say, I got q tough old man;
he makes me do this Bona
marie said. But how long
can I take the pressure? What
can you tell kids? I don't
know"
Happily, some anti-coddlers
who do know what to tell chill
dren are in good positions to
make themselves felt. One of
these Is DR.. Weinfeld, the
Highland Park child psychia-
trist.
DR.. Weinfeld is too canny
an observer not to know the
neuroses cracking all around
and he is too frank not to
speak out on what disturbs
him. To him the suburban diff
ference lies mainly in the ex-
IRENE intensity Of the parents
struggle for status. He be-
lieves this to be the primary
cause Of such maladies az the
pace Of the Junior Rat Race
and the blindness Of parents
to Suburbia's lacks. Parents
complain to him about every
thing but the obvious. For ex-

I remember best, perhaps
Ia certain discussion with q
small, informal assembly OF

of the table sat an attrac-

phases of the discussion they
seid little. Eventually the
group got around to the omni-
present problem that might be
described as Grass, grass,
everywhere, but not a place
to play" All around the table
the complaint was echoed that
the areas collective standards
for lawn cosmetics made 1t
nearly impossible to assign the
smaller kids places to romp.
The young couple at the end
of the table listened atten-
lively. Finally the mother spoke
up. She was experiencing no
such difficulty, she said pleas
antly. All faces turned In her
direction. The lady flushed Just
a trifle and said, We've Just ex-
planned to the neighbors that
we're growing kids instead Of

The chuckles around the table
sounded slightly hollow. I think
they reflected incredulity more
than anything else. Some day

PTA Called a Foctor
With notable exceptions,
most of whom we have en-
countered by now, I found the
school staffs allergic to con-
versation about the suburba.,
difference. They know too well
that they are, in effect, en-
ployes of the PTA-that
most potent of the suburban
collectives. PTA leaders gen.
orally look with disfavor on
any eccentrics who attempt to
rock the suburban boat. Most
school people, therefore, follow
the line of least resistance. AS

Those of his colleagues who
hold a different view, for the

coddling can yield only low

Our young lobbyist accepted
the verdict without rebellion

children won't accept stand
ards unless they grow up with
them from infancy. And sub
urban parents can't make the
allowances necessary for a sub
urban upbringing unless they
are willing to make one con-
cession. To wit, they must con-
cede that growing up in Sub

Hartman Home to Report
On midas Military Needs
BY the Associated Press

Assistant Secretary of State
w. Averell Hartman returned
home yesterday to report to
President Kennedy on midas
military needs to repel Chinese
Communist intruders and her
willingness to reach a settle
ment with Pakistan on disput-
ed Kashmir. -
High United States sources
said Mr.. Hartman made clear
to both Prime Minister Nehru
and Pakistan President Ayub
Khan that they must get to-
gether to discuss the Kashmir
question If they want con-
tinued Western help.
On his arrival at Andrews
Air Force Base with a 30-man
presidential mission, Mr.. Harri-
man told newsmen he had
heard no suggestion Of any re-
quirement for United States
troops for the Himalayan Dor
der fight.
He said the Indians look
upon their problem with Com
munist China as q long-term
affair. This attack is on the
Indian way of life and will need
a military buildup to resist"
said the veteran trouble
shooter.
Confidence in Nehru
Mr.. Hartman declared he
was "very glad" he had been
able to participate in the
agreement reached by Mr..
Nehru and Mr.. Ayub to begin
talks on a settlement on their
long dispute over kashmir.
Mr.. Hartman expressed con-
fidence that Mr.. Nehru will go
through with the agreement
without any preconditions.
Shortly after his arrival, Mr..
Hartman held q lun CHI com
meeting with Secretary of |
State Rusk and Phillips Talbot,
the assistant secretary in
charge Of South Asian and Mid
die East affairs. The White
House announced Mr.. Harri-
man win see Mr.. Kennedy to-
morrow.
Mr.. Hartman would not say
he was optimistic on a Kash-
mir settlement, but declared
there is a better chance than
there ever has been before" to
end the dispute.
Kashmir, which has q pre-
dominantly Moslem population,
has been a source Of tensions

worked out, but at least after
is years the Pakistani and In
dian leaders have finally decid-
ed to make a real effort at set
tlement.
The Kashmir question is
considered a key factor which
could lead to Joint defenses of
the Asian sub-continent.
Because Of mutual sus-
picionS, India has concentrated
the bulk of her troops on the
PakiStan border to prevent any
surprise move by Pakistan to
seize Kashmir. This has i'm
modified Indian forces needed
in the Himalayan border fight
with Communist China.

the General Services Admin
istration and General Account
ing Office are scheduled, to
bring in some new figures when
the hearings resume tomorrow
He said these would be based
on an inventory of the stock
pile last September 80 and also
would include additional costs
never reckoned with before" in
the testimony.
Edward A. McDe1nott, DEP
director, has been tentatively
scheduled to testify on Deem
Der IL. Mr.. Coburn said Mr..
McDermott certainly will be
asked" whether stockpile objec-
tives have been changed.
Mr.. Coburn said the subcom-
mittee hopes also to hear from
Mr.. McDermott details of plans
to dispose of SURPRISES without
upsetting world markets.
Kennedy Ordered Review
President Kennedy by execu-
tive order created a Federal
Executive Stockpile Committee
in February. Its members, rep
resenting more than a dozen
Federal agencies, were assigned
to review stockpile policies "in
light of changing defense re-
quirements and improved tech
nology."
Stockpile officials originally
built the stockpile with the idea
Of assembling enough strategic
materials to last through a
five-year war. Then in 1858
they cut the goals to enough
materials to last through a
three-year war. Meanwhile the
Government had entered long,
term contracts for materials,
and surpluses kept mounting.
A spokesman said Mr.. Ken
nedy's stockpile committee is
well along with the reappraisal
but plans no general announce
ment Of findings. Rather, the
spokesman said, action will be
taken item by item in accord
ance with its recommendations.
