American Dancer Hopes To Win Russian Friends for America at Moscow Affair Washington (U.R) A pretty blond ballet dancer said today she and a group of young Ameri cans hope to win friends for the United States this summer at the International Youth Festival in Moscow. The ballet dancer 23-year-old Barbara Perry of Chicago said Wage and Salary Employment Mounts San Francisco (U.R) Wage and salary employment on the Pacific Coast, excluding domest ic and agricultural workers, in creased 26,400 from February to a total of 5,644,500 in mid-Marca according to the Bureau of La bor Statistics. The monthly gains of 10,800 in California and 2,000 in Ore gon were somewhat below February-March increases of recent years, the bureau said, but the Washington increase of 13,600 was normal. Lumber and food processing began their seasonal upswings, as did service and trade, the bureau said. Aircraft construc tion continued to expand. Offsetting this was a decline seasonally in construction large ly due to an unusually wr?t March in Oregon and Northern California and to a general slow down in residential building. . about 500 young Americans al ready have written to her or ganization saying they want to attend the bi-annual. Communist program. Miss Perry announced Tues day the Russian Embassy has agreed to issue 45-day "special participant cards" instead of visas to Americans planning to attend the festival in Moscow July 28 to Aug. 11. v She announced the agreement after an all-day conference at the embassy. She talked for half an hour with Soviet Ambassador Georgi N. Zaroubin. Miss Perry, the secretary of the United States Youth Festival Committee, said the Russians promised to supply the cards within a week after she provides the names of the Americans who will attend the festival. She said it usually takes eight to 12 weeks to get a Russian visa. The hazel-eyed dancer and public relations specialist planned to ask the Polish Em bassy today for visas permitting the Americans to pass through Poland. The state department is grant ing passports to Americans who want to attend the festival but has announced it is not "en couraging" attendance because it fears the Russians will use the American contingent for propa ganda purposes. More than 35, 000 young people from 120 na tions are expected to attend. Former MedforcLMan Awarded Fellowship Dr. George A.

The boss is a good guy. Mathilda S. My husband and I have been married 15 years and have four children. During the entire time of our marriage he has worked at the same joo in a local .store. He works long, hard hours for small pay and we have had a very rough time of it. I am a good housekeeper and know how to stretch the dollar, but I don't think it is necessary for things to be as bad as they are. My husband will never talk up for extra pay. For ex ample, at the end of the dav he makes several deliveries to customers. This brings him home half an hour to an hour later than he should come. I say this is part of his working day and he should get overtime for it, but hewon't ask. . Recently he was quite ill. His boss offered to pay a few of the doctor bills, but Harry turned him down. This is going too far; I don't know why my husband has so little spunk. Harry S. My wife thinks I have no spunk, but the fact is that I have too much spunk to want to accept charity from my boss. A doctor's bill is a' personal expense. I want to pay for it myself. It would be dif ferent if I had been injured on the job, but I wasn't. I don't want any handouts. My boss is a good guy. I know that business hasn't been too good. If he could afford to give me more, he would. My wife thinks the boss is a slave driver, but the truth is that he's very considerate. He s always telling me not to rush around so much if I want to live long. He gives me a couple of coffee breaks a day. He never says anything if I make a mis take. I know I've contributed a lot to the business. Many customers insist- that I wait on them. It seems to me that the boss ought to recognize this without my telling him. The Council: There is a slave driver in this picture, but it isn't the boss. It's Harry himself. Harry seems to have gotten info a childish personal relation ship with his boss. He is fear ful, resentful and dependent. He insists that the boss would pay him more "if he could afford to" and points out that the boss is kind and considerate of him. Yet he shows resentment when he says that the boss ought to rec ognize what he has contributed "without my telling him" and when he spurns the boss offer of help in an emergency. Harry sees the boss as Daddy. He is more concerned with try ing to please him and make a favorable impression on him than with simply putting in his day's work to make a living for himself and his family. He na turally resents the humiliating position in which he has placed himself and his anger expresses itself in ways which are only j TRADING'S TERRIFIC RIGHT NOW!

The boss, it ap pears, is making some effort to be fair to a man who is determ ined to punish himself. It would be very difficult for Harry to pull himself out of this unfortunate, long-term relation ship, but he should make the effort to see his boss an an ordinary employed. If he feeis that he deserves more pay or could make more elsewhere, he should lay it on the line. If the boss can't pay him more, he'll let Harry know. Harry may be worth much more to than both realize. It will give him new incentive on the job if he can win both self-esteem and respect from the boss in the solid form of a bigger pay check. (COPYRIGHT 1957 Coslello Jailed For Refusal To Give Jury Story New York (U.R) Gambler Frank Costello was packed off to jail Tuesday night for refus ing to tell a grand jury about an attempt on his life and a scrap of paper that may be a clue to a gambling empire. Costello, who was nicked by a would-be assassin's bullet last night, was sentenced to 30 days in the workhouse for refusing to cooperate with a grand jury in vestigating the shooting. At least part of the reason for his refusal, he indicated, was the Bureau of Internal Revenue, a number one bugaboo for gam blers. Alarm for Killer Police, meanwhile, spread a 14-state alarm for Costello's would-be killer, described by witnesses to the attempt as a hefty six-footer with slicked down hair who waddles when he walks. The scrap of paper that prompted a barrage of police and grand jury questions required little guesswork as to its nature. It was found in Costello's pocket as he was being treated for a scalp wound made by the gun man's .38 caliber bullet and read: "Gross Casino wins as of 4-26-57 $651,284. Casino wins less markers $435,695. Slot wins $62,844. Markers, $153,745. Mike $150 per week. Jake $100 per week. L. $30,000. H. 9,000." Las Vegas Tie Hinted Police said the note apparent ly alluded to gambling profits, possibly from a Las Vegas ca sino in which Costello is ru mored to have an interest. The term "marker" is gambling slang for an I.O.U. The possibility was raised that the attempted killer might be someone who owes Costello a large sum of money, or a gunman hired by such a person. Police put little stock in Cos tello's claim that the gunman was "a punk trying to get a rep utation" in the Underworld.
