Gi o O -G c o. CAB Asked To Exert Authority Regulating Plane Test Washington tU.F5 The Sen ate Commerce Committee has called on the Civil Aeronautics Board to exert immediately its authority to regulate plane flights over crowded city areas. The committee Monday un animously approved a resolution directed to the board after re vising it to include flights like those which led to the Pacoima, Calif., tragedy last week. Remote Areas Suggested feP fighter and an airliner, bothr on test flights, collided over a crowded Pacoima school- yard.

I am very un happy 'about th separation be cause of our two children and because I really love Larry, jet I am miserable with him. You see, Larry works like a slave for his parents at heavy manual labor. It is dirty, ex hausting work. He comes home looking lilee a worn-out bum. I am not used to seeing a man like this.0 Mi father and my brothers are white-collar workers and Larry Vias the education and personal ity to be the same.

Hiestand (R-Calif.) asked Con gress to support his demand that the CAB designate remote areas for test flights to prevent air collisions. He introduced a resolution similar to the Senate committee version. Chairman Warren G. Mag r.uson (D-Wash.) said the Senate committee staff has reviewed the civil aeronautics act and is convinced the CAB has the necessary authority to regulate all types of flights. Magnuson said he undersands the board has agreed informally to "look into the entire situa tion." Quick Approval Seen If the board tells the com mittee it needs additional legal authority, Magnuson said, "I'm sure" the committe will send it to the Senate floor "immediate ly." He said he believes such a measure, if needed, would be approved quickly by the Senate. The CAB Monday appointed two examiners to conduct hear ings into the California col lision and the crash of a North east airliner at New York last Friday. The times and places of the hearings will be announced later. Talent Girls Taking Course in Care of Sick Talent Senior girls at Talent High school are now taking a six-week course in Home Care of the Sick and Mother and Baby Care. The course is re quired for all senior girls. Home Care of the Sick in cludes procedures believed to be needed most frequently for the sick at home, school officials ex plained. Emphasis is placed on care and comfort of the bed pa tient, giving of food and medi cine and simple treatments or dered by the doctor. Mother and Baby Care is giv en in preparation for the future life of the girls in the home, of ficials said. Training is given in preparation for motherhood and care of the child after its ar rival. Then the work has to be done, so we stay overtime. Gloria won't believe my parents don't force me into this. Someday my brothers and I will inherit a good business and we'll be able to hire others to do the heavy work. The Council: Both Gloria and Larry are being extremely un fair to themselves and their chil dren by not making concessions to one another. They have every reason to have a happy marriage and home life and will find no greater happiness apart. Gloria is wrong to insist that Larry is being dominated by his parents when he shows so clear ly that he enjoys his work for them and has many advantages by sticking to it. She is being very snobbish and very foolish when she places a white-collar job above manual labor. Many white-collar men would give up their jobs for more money and better opportunities for the fu ture if they had the chance to do so and the ability to perform this kind of labor. On the other hand, Larry rec ognizes that his wife has a right to object to his long hours. She has a right to his company at the end of the working day. He should quit his goldbricking in the middle of the day and com plete his work at a reasonable hour. He might also make the con cession of washing up and shed ding his work clothes at his place of business. Many men do this. Wives like their husbands to look presentable, not only for the sake of the neighbors, but for themselves. There is no reason why Gloria should not respect her husband's labor or why Larry should not respect his wife's preference for a "white collar" outside of Working hours.

The British Broadcasting corporation t e 1 e vised a film showing the birth of a baby Monday night. Most viewers agreed it was done with remarkable tact, but the dissenting tabloid Daily Sketch quoted a "father of two" today as saying BBC was turn ing television "into an ultra-sensational horror comic." The BBC said Et noon it had received a total of eight tele phone calls following the pro gram. Six expressed disapproval and two were in favor. The BBC switchboard usually is flooded with calls if viewers dislike a program. One of Every 42 Oregon Teen-Age Workers Injured Salem tU.R) One of every 42 Oregon teen-agers in indust rial employment in the past year was subject to a work injury, a summary of reported minor accidents completed by the State Bureau of Labor shows. Labor Commissioner Norman O. Nilsen said the frequency rate of minors accidents was slightly below that of the pre vious year although 1,179 more industrial jobs were held by teen-agers in 1956. Most on Laborer Jobs The tally showed laborer jobs as the occupation in which most accidents occurred, followed in j turn by food-processing, restau rant, automobile servicing and construction occupations. Five per cent of the accidents recorded logging and sawmill work where most jobs are pro hibited to minors by child labor laws. Employed girls improved their usual high safety record with only one out of every 197 reporting an occupational in jury, compared with one out of every 27 male youths. Hand Injuries Common The most common work in juries to minors in the year's records were hand cuts and bruises, infected fingers, sprain ed backs, eye irritations, punc ture of foot and occupational dermatitis with such serious in juries as fractures, amputated fingers, face burns, concussion, hernia and crushed hands in scattered cases. Nilsen said one-third of the teen-agers suffering work in juries in 1956 were hired illegal ly since their employers failed to secure work permits for their employment from the Bureau of Labor even on types of jobs which would have been' ap proved. Barnes Hospital Expansion Sought Washington (U.R) A new 750-bed Veterans' Hospital to be built on the grounds of the pre sent Barnes hospital in Van couver, Wash., was called for in a bill introduced today by Sen. Henry M. Jackson (D Wash.) "The present overcrowding in the Vancouver area makes the hospital one of the most needed in the nation, Jackson said, "and, unless a new and better hospital is built, the situation will grow worseduring the next five years." " The proposed hospital would replace the present wooden structure, built as a temporary hospital by the Army in the early days of World War II. Co-sponsors of the bill were Sen. Richard Neuberger of Ore gon and Sen. Warren G. Mag nuson, of Washington. The new plant would increase the hospital s capacity by more than 250 beds and would in clude improved medical and neuro-psychiatric facilities. Retirement Pay for i Presidents Opposed Washington (U.R) A senate . approved bill to give living ex presidents and future retiring presidents S25.000 yearly in re-, tircment pay faces an uncertain i fate in the House. I - Rep. James C. Davis (D-Ga.), who played a key part in kill- j ing a similar bill last year, in- , dicated today he will try to j block the measure again if he gets the chance. j "They have gone crazy on the j subject of giving away the tax payers' money," ' Davis told a reporter. "There are only two ex-presidents. Truman and Hoov er, and neither of them needs the money." Davis was chairman of a House Civil Service Subcom mittee which last year buried a presidential retirement bill ppssed by the Senate and much" l:ke the measure the Senate ap proved Monday. IMS o Doctors Voice Protests The birth of the baby came as part of a program in which "na tural birth" expert Grantly Dick Read defended his system whereby the mother helps guide the baby into the world a sys tem opposed by London doctors. One of the doctors present said after the film, "I wouldn't like any patient of mine grop ing around trying to help her baby out." The doctors were not identified in line with British Medical association policy. The film showed the mother on her back, her knees up, the baby already half born.
