I toid Sue I would give her a small monthly check, but that ; she must not let John know i about it. He's just the type to i depend on this sort of thing all the time. I don't mind helping out. but I want to force him into earning a better living. ! Sure enough, however, John found out about it and now he says he won't let Sue take it. I told Sue she can come back home, where she can at least I give her children a decent up- i bringing but Jonn has threaten-! i ed to take their son to be brought up by his mother. I i told Sue she has nothing to j worry about. No court will per mit this, but she won't believe me. i ! Su M. My father doesn't really know John. He'd do any-i thing if he's desperate enough ! He's crazy about the baby and says he'll never let me get; away with separating him from the boy. I'm really afraid of him. Daddy thinks he can tak care of everything, but John is a pretty tough character too The only reason I let John know about the checks from Dad is that he was boasting he would someday make more than my father just because he got I a raise. John says plenty of j families live on less than he Is That So? By EUGENI BURNS Rangtr-Niruralist Edward K. Sue should come home to us Su M. I'm afraid of John Edward K. My daughter married three yean ago against my wishes. She was only 18. I thought both she and John wore much too young John held a low-paying job with few pros pects. Besides, he s no eager beaver as far as money goes. Well, now they have one baby and another on the way and Quick Elastic is the pre mium quality liquid starch that mixes easily, juickly and is . . .

He says I've got to live on what he earns or i else. i I really don't particularly I want to go back home because j I don't get along very well with j my mother. I know she'll start I bossing me around again. I don't ! see why John should be so un reasonable about taking the j money. We could get along so j much better if we had it. ! The Council: It is hard to decide who is the biggest baby in this trio Sue, who taunts , her husband with her father's j money-making ability and who J has no thought of creating a real home for her husband and ; children, or John, who makes j threats, or Edward, who wants so much to go on playing his little girl's Big Daddy that he is ready to break up her home One thing is sure somebody must grow up. It would be a good idea for Sue to start, since she has the main responsibility for two innocent lives. Little girl Sue must begin to realize that she has been playing a nasty and dangerous game by encouraging a rivalry between her father and her husband. She seems to enjoy the battle of these two strong men over her She must recognize that she be longs with her husband, not be cause she is afraid of him or be cause she can't get along with her mother, but because it is her business to make a home for her children. Some young couples are able to accept temporary financial aid from a parent with no ill effect on the marriage, but it is not possible in this case. The money is being used as a weapon in a triangle, rather than as a means of promoting family hap piness. Sue and John can well use counseling with a clergy man or family agency. (COPYRIGHT 1957.

Neuberger of Oregon has been selected by the editors of Holi day Magazine as one of 10 per sons during 1956 cited "for in creasing our knowledge of the world and working toward closer sympathy among the people of every part of it." Neuberger will receive his citation today from Holiday's editors in recognition of his role in seeking "Federal regulation of billboards along the new In terstate Highways, so that our roadside panorama may con tinue unblemished." 1 Among other winners of the Holiday award this year are Sen. J. W. Fulbright of Arkansas, comedian Danny Kaye, Mike Todd, the movie producer, and Rear Adm. Hyman G. Rickover, developer of the submarine Nau tilus. Unnn learnine of his being honored by the editorial board of Holiday, Senator neuberger said that he hoped the award would "serve to alert Americans to the urgent need of preserving the scenery along their S33.000, 000,000 worth of new roads from the blight of being defaced and blotted off by billboards." Neuberger's bill to regulate signboards has been recommend ed for support by the Senate Roads and Highways subcommit tee, but has yet to be sent to the Senate floor for action by the full Public Works committee.

Until her recent retire ment, she was the service's editor-in-chief for many years. For her work in that position, she was awarded the Interior Distinguished Service award on her retirement.

It concludes with a chapter on Mis sion 66, the 1-year program for the 181 areas administered by the national park service.

Natural Heat Fells Fireman in New York New York 0PI Natural heat proved too much Tuesday for a fireman who recently defied flames and fire-induced heat to rescue a woman from a blazing tenement.

Wagner walked to the ambu lance and pinned two medals on the fireman for his heroism. ALL IN THE EAR ISP What you see in this girl's ear is Sonotone's new hear ing aid complete.
