As We Live
Paslor Can Help
Girl In Trouble
When a girl's mother is dead
and her father has little interest
in his children or little sympathy
for them, the best place for her
to turn for help is to her pastor.
(Q) "I am 15 years old and
quiie mature for my age. My
mother died when I was only
three and 1
have been de
prived of a
mother's love
and guiding
hand. My fa
ther drinks
and often
slays all night
in taverns or
away from
home. The next
Ht-rlock
day he sleeps until late in the
afternoon and beats us kids if
we get in his way. For the past
five years, I havebeen working
to earn enough money for food
and clothing for my five
brothers and sisters any my
self. The little I manage to save,
my father drinks up. Now I am
in a difficult situation. To put
it bluntly. I am expecting a baby
in six months. I do not know
w.ho the father is and have no
one ,to turn to. I am afraid to
tell my father as he will only
beat me as he always does. I am
desperate, so please tell me
what to do."
(A) Go to your pastor at once
and tell him about your prob
lem. If you do not belong to any
church, go to the pastor of your
mother's faith. Any pastor, in
fact, would help a girl in your
position.
The pastor can arrange to
send you away until after your
baby is born and can make ar
rangements to have it adopted
so it will have a good home.
Ask the pastor to make ar
rangements for your brothers
and sisters while you are away.
A girl your age should not have
the responsibility of supporting
and taking care of five children.
And since your father is cer
tainly not a suitable guardian
for them, it would be better for
the pastor to have them placed
in a foster home where they will
get proper care.
After your baby is born you
should be placed in a foster
home, too, where you will get
proper care and have a chance
to complete your schooling.
You are legally too young to
be working and to have no
guidance. With the proper kind
of home you can begin life

Bombers Compete
In Target Drill
March AFB, Calif. U.R)
Giant Air Force bombers start
dropping theoretical hydrogen
bombs on Western cities today
in the start of the seventh an
nual Strategic Air Command's
bombing and navigation meet.
More than 1000 officers and
airmen from 34 SAC bombard
ment wings throughout the na
tion will take part in the six-day
event to decide the winner of the
Fairchild trophy for the highest
combined bombing and naviga
tion' scores.
Swept-winged Stratojets will
fly from this base near River
side, Calif., while huge B36
Peacemakers will fly from Fair-
child Air Force Base in Wash
ington. The crew of each plane will
fly three 3000-mile missions dur

Paper By-Producf Is
Used In Road-Building
International Falls, Minn.
(U.R) A paper by-product is the
latest road building products.
An amber-colored liquid re
sulting during the manufacture
of paper has been proved cap
able of. preventing dust when
-jns peoj paAedun uo paXeids
faces. The liquid also proves use
ful as a binder for underbase
gravel on roads to be paved,
increasing the load-bearing
strength of the surface, and in
reclaiming the surfaces of bit
uminous roads.
Lignin and carbohydrates dis
solved out of wood during the
pulping process give the liquid
its adhesive qualities, demonstra
ted here during tests last year.
The Minnesota and Ontario Pa
per Co. decided to market the
liquid after the test proved suc
cessful. Imported from Spanish West
Africa, camels carry many bur
dens, including people, in the
Canary Islands.

The Bennett nursery is for

Plan Told To Use Balloon
For Launching Satellite
Akita, Japan (U.R) A Japa
nese scientists said today Japan
could launch an earth satellite
by 1962 by using a balloon.
Prof. Hideo Itokawa of T6kyo
university said the United States
is planning to shoot its satellite
all the way by rocket. "But my
idea is to hang an artificial sat
ellite to a balloon and let it go
up to 30,000 meters to preserve
fuel," he said.
"From there with a speed of
7,000 meters per second it could
easily be shot up to 100 to 300
kilometers above the earth," he
said.

Western Mining
Has Difficulties
Sacramento (U.R) Every
mining industry in the Western
states with the exception of cop
per is in "economic difficulty,"
two natural resources leaders re
ported today.
S. H. Williston, Palo Alto,
Calif., and Dewitt Nelson, Calif
ornia natural resources director,
said that stockpiling of strate
gic metals was slowing down and
"there is a great deal of un
certainty which is not good."
Williston and Nelson, who are
co-chairmen of a Western Gov
ernors Mineral Conference to be
held here Nov. 7-8, said there
are six possible solutions to cur
rent mining difficulties:
A tariff on imported minerals,
establishment of import quotas;
subsidies from tariffs to be paid
domestic producers; across the
board subsidies per pound pro
duced; reinstatement of the
premium price plan of World
War II; and stockpile purchases
to be paid for by the taxpayers.
