BILL BEATEN TO PUNISH PARENTS OF DELINQUENTS Salem, Ore., Feb. 3 (U.R) A series of bills seeking to clear up the present confusion in Ore gon over the status of commun ity property regulations since the community property law was invalidated by the supreme court recently, passed the senate and went to the house of repre sentatives today. Both "houses adjourned early today until Monday morning aft er completing their first Satur day meeting of the session. In the house a bill which would permit the conviction of negligent parents or guardians of delinquent children on a fel ony charge of contributing to the delinquency of a minor, was defeated by a large majority. The i bill caused considerable discussion and lost after Rep Donald Neisler charged that the penalty involved, up to five years imprisonment, was exces sive for the crime. Rep. Phil Brady said he couldn't see the necessity for such legislation. He said that when he made mistakes, he blamed himself, not his parents, and said he felt that home rela tions could not be regulated by statute. . The community property bills, one of which was referred to committee for clarification, re peal the present ineffective law, and permit those who took ad vantage of it to regain their property status as before.

Frank Parker, retired chairman of the Illinois War Council; and Dr. Claude Buss, director of the OWI in San Francisco and former assistant to .he Higli Commissioner in the Philippines.

MANEUVER AREAS TO Man's Wife Most Important Factor Of Success In Life State College, Pa. (U.R) A man's wife is the most im portant factor in determining his success in life, claims Dr. B. V, Moore, head of the department of education and psychology at Pennsylvania State College. "A man who is not well-ad justed and happy in life's major aspects of which marriage and home are a very large part cannot be successful and well- adjusted in his job," Dr. Moore said. , The success or failure of many men, Dr. Moore added, can be traced to the women they have married and the type of home life they lead, and he described the best wife "type" as flne who strengthens and encourages her husband without prodding him.
