It is true that many actors have succeeded after more than ten years of "failure, but it is also true that many have not. Among those who haven't there may have been many with tal-. ent.

My brother hap pens to have a great deal of talent; I am riot the only one who thinks so. Many qualified people in the- field have giver;' him en couragement. Many an actor has succeeded after more than ten years of failure. My wife refuses to understand that Donald has had to make sacrifices .for me in the past. My parents did not have much money, but they centered all their hopes in me and scrimped and saved in order to get me through my professional train ing. For some reason, they just neglected Donald." He did not have half the advantages. I had. My brother doesn't want to be dependent on me. His wife has worked. He has taken- odd jqbs, but it's still been a rough road for him. He basn't loafed. He's done' his best and I feel I should stand by him until he achieves what he wants. now in. the position where he not only has to prove to himself, but to his brother, that the, long investment in him is worthwhile. If he. were forced to adjust to economic necessities, he ' might find there are other satisfactions in life besides acting. Stanley may be dooming his brother to unhappiness and frustration. - Stanley shows considerable .guilt toward Donald for what. he believes was his parents' neglect. He .may have a distorted view of this, brought -about, by the painful difference between his situation and his brother's. But even if he is right, he can never make up for what his parents did. He'may be only imposing a new burden on his wronged brother. ' (Copyright Is)58, General Features Corp.) Portland.
