T Encouraging of Casual Male May Lead to Rape or Death, Says Medic. By Dorothy Williams United Press Correspondent Washington, Oct. 13 (U.R) A woman physician, who has counselled thousands of govern ment girls, declared today that mothers should make it clear to their daughters that they are only "begging for trouble when they kiss" or otherwise encour age casual male acquaintances. The physician, who asked that her name be withheld, made her recommendation in endorsing the contention of Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt that par ents should give teen age daugh ters "a little more real knowl edge" or keep them at home. Snood Slaying Cited Their remarks were occasion ed by Washington's "snood slay ing," the rape-murder last week of 18-year-old Dorothy Berrum, who came here from Chippewa Falls, Wis., to take a job as a War Department typist - clerk. Held in the case is Earl McFar land, 21-year-old marine, who reportedly "picked up" the vic tim on a downtown street cor ner. "Parents should advise their daughters of the reasons for the 'don'ts' they preach," the phy sician said. "They should see that their daughters receive an adequate sex education either from them or some competent person. "Mothers don't make their daughters realize, for instance, that the sexual urge doesn't stop with kissing," she said. "They don't give them a scientific ex planation of the part sex plays in all life." By permitting a man to pick her up, a girl is encouraging him to believe she would not re sist further attention, the physi cian continued. And when she goes with him to some secluded place, she added, she is obvi ously encouraging him further.

Major Edward J. Kelly, Wash ington police superintendent, also warned against "pick-ups." "We can not take care of women if they won't use good sense and take care of them selves." he said. "We do everything in our power to make the city safe for women and we have kept our crime record low, but we can not assign a policewoman to protect every girl in Washing ton. Both the physician and Kelly took issue with the charge ol Ray H. Everett, executive secre tary of the social hygiene soci- ity, that the government is fall ing down in its job of caring foi girl employes. "The government provides a multitude of social outlets for its girl workers," the physician said. "There are carefully or ganized dances, hikes, state par ties and all sorts of athletic and educational groups. Every agen cy has someone a girl can talk to if she is ill or unhappy."
