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.

Mathilda S. My husband has
no spunk.
Harry S. 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!

damaging to himself like turn
ing down the offer of help with
a medical bill. 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.

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.
