A CHILD'S VUKMCAMKNT
By Alice .lutlsoii I'etilo
An 8-year-old who lived with her
divorced mother ran away to tho
house of her father who had married
again. At night her mother camo for
her.
Tho child was awakened from
sound sleep to bo confronted by both
parents asking her simultaneously
with whom she wanted to stay, fa
ther or mother. The child flung her
arms around them both and cried out
unhappily: "I want to stay every
where. I want to bo with you both.'
Similar, If less painfully dramatic,
is the predicament of every child of
divorced parents or of those who have
quarrels and, disagreements, which he
is allowed to witness.
Consciously or unconsciously each
parent tries to win tho child's devo
tlon at the expense or his loyalty toi
the other parent. Tho child Is com
pelled to make a choice which Is In
violation of his deepest needs, ror
ho wants both parents. ,
He wants their love, their friend
ship, their protection. To be com-1
pclled to give up either one is a crip
pling blow to his developing personal
ity. ,
Whero it is Impossible for parents
to live In anything 3lko harmony and
where, therefore-, it may seem best for
them to soparato, the burden of
choosing between them should not be
put upon the child.
Ha Bhould make his home witn
whichever one 1b under the circum
stances best fitted to carry pn his
bringing up.
He should hear nothing that will
reflect badly upon the parent of
whom he Is deprived. It Is hard
enough that ho has become a half
orphan.
At least ho should be permitted to
cherish whatever he can of tho ideal
ized Image of tho parent he has lost.

Arms Reduction
By States Given
Wide Approval
GENEVA. April 18 m A pro
posal recommending reduction of
armaments be achieved in successive
stages received wide approval from
the delegates at the world confer
ence here this morning and was re
ferred to the conference drafting
committee.
The proposal, which was presented
by the delegations of Spain, Belgium,
Switzerland, Czechoslovakia, Den
mark, Norway, Esthonla and Uruguay
provided stages of disarming be
achieved through revisions of the
arms reduction convention, at short
intervals.
I!i was supported by the French
and Polish delegations, and by Sir
John Simon, Naotake Sato and Dlno
Grandl, chiofs of the British Jap
anese and Italian delegations. Maxim
Litvlnoff, Soviet foreign commissar
offered an amendment providing that
the first stage of the reduction be a
substantial one.
Ambassador Nadolny of the Ger
man delegation had expressed dissat
isfaction with the proposal because,
he said, it did not provide for a radi
cal reduction in the first stage.
Secretary of State Henry L. Stlm-
son remained at his villa, today, con
fined there by a slight cold and there
was great disappointment among the
delegates and spectators when he did
not appear.
