Briiain'i largest daily one headline on a reported riit Truman, after arriving here for a a fall he look at his home in In is 16. We want very much to see our mother. We think we may be able to help her. We feel that our father has been very cruel to her and to us by keeping us separated like this. My brother and I are very happy at home. Our stepmother has cared for us, but she never really loved us. Our father isn't affectionate either. We feel that we have missed mother love. We are nearly grown-up now and our father has no right to keep us apart. Mr. K. D. My only aim in telling the children their mother was dead was to shield them from all knowledge of what kind of person she was. She never wanted them and never made any attempt to see them after she deserted them as babies. She was unfaithful to me after the first month of our marriage. I have reason to doubt that the children are really mine, yet I have always loved them and tried to protect them. My wife and I are heartbrok en over this discovery the chil dren have made and the attitude they have taken. My wife has done far more than her duty toward them and loves them very much. I feel that my son would not take this attitude. but Laura has stirred him up. The Council Lies often seem to be the easiest way out, yet all too often they become a trap. Much of this misery could have been avojded if Mr. K. D. had brought his children up in the belief that "mother went away" when they were very young be cause she had many problems and could not care for them properly. Unfortunately, the shocking truth has come to these chil dren at a crucial time the time when they would normally experience rebellious feelings to ward their parents and doubts as to whether they are really loved. Teenagers often look to ward some person they have known outside the family group for "real" love and understand ing. Laura and her brother must now be told the full truth ex cept the fact that their father has some doubt as to whether they are really his children. Since he has loved them and taken care of them, he would do better to put that doubt out of his own mind, as far as it is possible to do so. Mr. and Mrs. K.D. should try to explain to Laura that her feelings about her father and stepmother are simply not based on fact, but are a normal part of growing up. She should be told, perhaps by the family phy sician, that she cannot help her mother and, in fact, might hurt her by a sudden appearance at this time. She should be told she can see her mother when she is older, if she still desires to. It might help to give her some . -Js U PILOT DIES A HERO Part of an Air Force F-84 Thunderjet can be seen m the wreckage of this home at Mountain View, Calif, as it goes up in flames. The pilot Captain Robert Mulvehill, 32, was attempting to land at nearby Moffett Field, a Navy air base. Navy experts theorized he rode nis flaming plane down to avoid crashing into two nearby schools. The plane exploded almost directly over the rooftops, cut ting a three-block trail of destruction. Only one woman was slightly injured. She escaped her flaming home by leaping through a window. Back Stairs: King Saud and By MEHRIMAN SMITH United Press Correspondent Thomasville, Ga. !U.R) Back stairs at the traveling White House: King Saud of Saudi Arabia may have spread joy with watches and money around Washington, but he failed to drop any majestic tips around the White House. The password among the help these days is, "Did you get your watch?" The public thinks the presi dential plane, the Columbine III, is reserved exclusively for the use of the Eisenhowers. Actually, the situation is this: The President has first call on the plane, but the ship is used almost daily for Air Force train ing. The pilot, Col. William Dra per, who doubles as the Presi dent's Air Force aide, estimates that presidential flying time oc cupies only about one-fifth of the working time of the plane. Before the President goes into a new airport. Draper may spend as much as a week "shooting" trial landings to train his crew, and test the conditions of a new runway. The Columbine III did not make the current trip to South Georgia. The plane is at the Lockheed plant in Burbank, Calif., for a periodic overhaul. No commercial airline could afford to change engines as fre quently as the Air Force installs new power plants in the presi dential plane. If and when the President gets together with British Prima Minister Harold Macmillan in Bermuda, it will take the White House a matter of weeks to set up the mechanical arrangements for the conference. When Mr. Eisenhower met with the former prime minister, Sir Winston Churchill, and the premier of France in Bermuda in 1953, the planning from the White House end took more than six weeks. Bermuda is a delightful tour- report of her mother's condition from time to time, if she ex presses an interest. (Copyright 1957, General Features Corp.)

This is the time of year when rumors start flying about the President vacationing during the summer in the lake section of Wisconsin. One of these years, the rumors may pay out, but the way it shapes up today, the President will go back to Colo rado before late summer. Press Secretary James C. Hag erty rejoined the White House staff here after a long delayed, two-weeks vacation on some of Florida's better golf courses. When the President arrived here Friday afternoon, Hagerty was at the side of the plane. heavily tanned and looking like an ad for a health cure. Jim had one principal ingre dient for a good vacation: He didn't read the newspapers and listened to the radio only when a band was playing. Larger Packages of Ice Cream Being Sold Chicago U.R Americans are buying ice cream in larger packages. By the end of 1957, there will be as many half-gallon units of ice cream sold as pints, accord ing to Harvey H. Robbins. sec retary of the Paraffined Carton Research Council. Half-gallon sales have climb ed 25 to 30 per cent annually in the past several years, Rob bins said, and during 1956 the industry sold 660 million pints and 470 million half-gallons. If the trend continues half-gallon units will share sales equally with pints, Robbins said. The increase in half-gallon sales represents new business. Robbins said, with only a small part of the increase at the ex pense of pint or quart sales. He attributed the half-gallon con tainer's popularity to increased use of home freezers.

February 11, 1957 Utah Becoming Turkey Capital Salt Lake City (U.R) Utah, a state most famous for uranium and pretty girls, is rap idly building a new reputation as the nation's turkey capital. William Barlocker, president of the Utah Turkey Federation, estimated the state, now the nation's heaviest exporter of fes tive birds, marketed a $15,000, 000 crop of gobblers in 1956. Of 2,717,000 turkeys grown in Utah during 1956, 90 per cent were sold elsewhere. But the industry in a boom year, has its problems. J. Arza Adams, president of the Nation al Turkey Federation and a Utahan, said it will be several years before turkeys again car ry the low market price tags they bore this year. At least he hopes so. Many producers are "going broke" because of over-production, he claimed. Adams blamed low prices, too, on faulty mar keting procedures. But he fore cast continued troubles unless growers trim their breeding stock. Meanwhile, Utahans, not con tent with merely hatching the birds and maturing them for the butcher's showcase, have found a way to rake in more profits by carrying the process a step farther. Plants, which a few years ago began preparing "oven ready" turkeys, this year turned out 41,000,000 pounds of them cleaned, plucked and ready Mother Visits Son On University Campus, Miami (U.R) A middle-aged Greek mother who visited her son at the University of Miami campus decided to remain in the United States nad get a college degree herself. Mrs. Elizabeth Sophianopou los, from the Greek island of Corfu in the Ionian Sea, visited her son Spyros, a food tech nology major and enrolled at the Miami school to work for a degree in interior decorating. On completion, of her studies, Mrs. Sophianopoulos said she will return to Corfu , he island home about one-fourth the size of Rhode Island, where her hus band is a doctor. The newly-enrolled freshman whose other son, Alexander, re cently graduated from McGill University in Montreal and is employed by the telephone company there, said she likes campus living and likes the Unit ed States. "But I am amazed at the strenous lives the Americans lead," she observed. "BATH" NOW!

Jeremiah and 11 o t h e r bloodhounds are on their way to join the police department in Manila, Early Diagnosis of Gum Disease Helpful Chicago (U.R) Early di agnosis of diseases of the gums can prevent much loss of teeth among adults, an Air Force den tal Corps officer says. Maj. Clifton O. Dummett, of Elmendorf Air Force Base, An chorage, Alaska, discussed gum diseases in the Journal of the American Dental Association. Dummett said persons over 35 years of age lose more teeth from the so - called periodontal diseases, popularly known as pyorrhea and gingivitis, than from any other cause, including dental decay. He cited one study which esti mated that 50 per cent of all men by the age of 45 either are afflicted with some form of per iodontal disease or have lost teeth as the result of it.

This is indicated by increased consumer demand for seat cov ers and a growing preference for the luxury lines. The Auto Seat Cover Manu facturers' Association estimates that when the books are closed on 1956 the industry will have disposed of a whopping 12.5 mil lion sets of covers averaging $20 each, for a retail volume of $250 million. It is a 10 per cent increase over the record sales activities of 1955. The "new look" in seat coders, is subdued colors and designs to replace the flashy effect of re cent years. At the same time the public is demanding more lux urious and costlier materials. "It's the new tren," observed Howard F. Leopold (president of Ero Manufacturing Co. of Chicago), "because people want it that way. It's something like a change in woman's fashions." The new, subdued look is in tune with the more subtle two toned color combinations seen in the interiors of the 1957 mod els now coming out of Detroit. Officials predicted that one of the public favorites in 1957 will be puffed saran, a plush plastic material with a puffed-up ap pearance. Its plushiness especial ly when interwoven with deli cate silver threads, has appealgi to the growing luxury market. Sales received their largest single boost this year from seat covers made of clear plastic the kind you can see through and terry cloth the kind you can wash. rtead and Use Classified AOS The Community's Biggest Marketplace Arlhriiis-Rheumalisn Vital Facts Exnlainei FREE DESCRIPTIVE BOOK As a public service to all read ers of this paper, a new 36-page highly illustrated book on Arth ritis and Rheumatism will be mailed ABSOLUTELY FREE to all who write for it.
