L R. He doesn't take my
career seriously.
Pater R. I take it so serious
ly that I'm worried.
Lh R. My husband and I
are in our late 20s and have been
married two years. We are plan
ning to have a family, but until
we do, I want to make as much
progress as I can on my job. I am
hoping to be able to go back
to work as soon as our children
are settled in school.
Our problem is that my hus
band refuses to take my career
efforts seriously. I go to school
three nights a week in order to
learn new skills, which will put
me ahead. I prepare dinner be
fore he comes home, but he has
to clean up alone afterwards on
school nights. He seems to re
sent this.
I am a fairly good, efficient
homemaker and I feel that Peter
has no real cause for complaint.
After all, I am making a bigger
contribution toward our home
than he is. since I bring in
money tnd also take the respon
sibility for keeping things run
ning smoothly.
Pater R To hear my wife
tell it, you'd think my only
cause for complaint is that I
have to do the dishes a few
nights a week. The fact is that
I do as much work in the home
as she does but I don't point
out every other minute how I
am really doing two jobs. I don't
expect any medals for it.
Lee says I don't take her car
eer efforts seriously. I take them
sw-S5tk i
O V"' I
I "" I
so seriously that I am really wor
ried. She has mapped out a pro
gram of advancement that would
take any man's concentrated
effort over several years.
I know that Lee is sincere
about wanting a family, but I'm
afraid at the rate she is going
she'll feel terrible when she has
to interrupt her career for moth
erhood. I want her to do the
things that make her happy. I
agreed to this arrangement be-
i fore we were married, but I
don't think it's working out so
well in practice.
...
The Council: Peter's statement
that it is not the dishes that both
er him, but a serious concern
about his wife's future is con
vincing and appears to be a well
taken point.
From her statement, Lee
seems to regard motherhood as
an interruption on her highway
to success. She appears to feel
that it is necessary to make cer
tain gestures at fulfilling a fem
inine role, such as taking the
"responsibility" for the home
and bearing children.
Unless Lee can get herself to
accept these feminine activities
more fully, she can hardly ex
cept to create a happy home for
a family. With a full-time job,
an intense concentration on a
high career goal and three
nights a week of schoolwork, it
is doubtful whether Lee can
have much emotional investment
in her role as a wife.
More is involved than being
an "efficient homemaker" and
Peter's fear for the future is
well founded. He is being short
changed now.

Silence Imposed
On Ship Passengers
Hamilton, Bermuda (IP)
Capt. E. C. Hicks imposed si
lence today on the crew and
passengers aboard the stranded
cruise ship Bcina Del Pacifico
in preparation for new attempts
to haul the ship off Bermuda's
while co.al reefs.
The 17,872-ton luxury liner
ran hard aground between two
coral reefs in Bermuda's north
channel early Monday with 700
passengers and 300 crewmen
aboard. Efforts to refloat the
liner failed Monday and Monday
night.
Hicks ordered his passengers
and crew not to answer ques
tions ibout the mishap, but the
passniers leaned over the rail
and told reporters there was
four feet of water in the crew
quarters, iney appeared care
free and in holiday mood, how
ever.
The interview was interrupt
ed by a ship's officer who threat
ened to turn fire hoses on the
reporters' little cabin cruiser un
less the newsmen moved out of
hearing distance.
Neither Hicks nor the ship's
agents would say whether there
was any damage, but there
were reports of a large hole
under water on the starboard
bow leaking streams of water.

Meat Prices Expected
To Be 'Relatively Stable'
Washington (IPI The Agricul

meat prices will be -'relatively

The department made the
forecast Monday in its monthly
publication, The Livestock and
Meat Situation. It said meat out
put for 1957 should total about
27.300,000,000 pounds, about 3
per cent less than in 1957.

Ingrid Bergman,
Daughter Meet
At Paris Airport
Paris UK Ingrid Bergman
had the first reunion with her
18-year-old daughter, Jenny Ann
Lindstrom, in a happy and con
fused scene at Le Bourget air
port Monday.
Jenny Ann is Ingrid's daugh
ter by her former marriage to
Dr. Peter Lindstrom, a brain
surgeon whom the famous act
ress gave up to marry Italian
movie producer Roberto Rossel-
i lini.
First In Six Yaars
Today's was the first meeting
between mother and daughter in
by Rossellini. Jenny Ann is a
sophomore at the University of
Colorado at Boulder.
Ingrid has denied reports of
a rift with her husband over
his alleged affair in Bombay
with the wife of an Indian mo
vie official.
A United Press dispatch from
Bombay said friends were pre
dicting Rossellini and Miss Berg
man would kiss and make up.
However his Indian visa, due to
expire in midweek, was ex
tended for two months until he
could finish his film work.
Monday's meeting was the first
in six years, and only the second
between them since Ingrid gave
up home and family in 194
for her tempestuous romance
with Rossellini.
Ingrid flew here from Rome
for the reunion, and Jenny Ann
flew in from Stockholm where
she had gone over the week end
with her father. .
Jenny's plane from Stockholm
was delayed half an hour, but
Ingrid was there on time for the
scheduled arrival.
Jenny and her beautiful act
ress mother were able to have
10 minutes together in the pri
vacy of the plane after it land
ed. Then they emerged smiling,
only to be mobbed by photo
graphers.
Ingrid apparently was not
pleased by all the attention,
both before and after her re
union with her pretty, American-reared
daughter.
Rift Reports Denied
Miss Bergman flew here from
a hurried trip to Rome where
her five-year-old daughter, Isa
bella, underwent an emergency
appendicitis operation. Isabella
and Isotta are twin daughters
