Quotes From the News By UNITED PRESS Maebashi. Japan Akikichi Sakai, widower of the woman killed by Army S-3 William Girard as she was gathering shell casings on an Army firing range: "Life is extremely valuable. However, one should hate the crime, not the person connected with it." Seattle Retired Defense Secretary Charles E. Wilson, in warning lhat the U.S. long range guided missile program should not be allowed to intensify the world armaments race: "I wouldn't underrate or overrate missiles, but in themselves they're just another weapon. They won't solve world problems." Washington Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, in saying she saw no one laugh during her three-week tour of Soviet Russia: "I have a feeling they have sold their souls for a little economic security." New York Hank Bauer, whose seventh-inning home run gave the New York Yankees a 3-2 victory over the Milwaukee Braves and tied the World Series at three games each: "I've gotten a few hits since I started playing ball for a living but this one was the biggest one of my life.

(International Soundpkoto) The Family Council Editor's not: The Family Council consist! of a Judge, a psychiatrist, three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writers. Each article i a summary of an actual report. The Family Council does not give advice; It merely reports on problem! that have keen dealt with by responsible agencies and counselor!. Mrs. G. P. Our son's wife is a tyrant. Roland P Things aren't so easy for her. Mrs. G. P Don't get the idea that my husband and I are in terfering in-laws, beause we aren't. We have five married children and have never inter fered in any way. But when someone is hurting your child, you'd have to be inhuman to be able to stand coldly by. The problem concerns our son, Roland. He is 32 and has been married for eight years. His wife is a regular tryant. She makes so many demands on Roland he never has a minute to rest and enjoy life. He works very hard to supply her and the three children with the best of every thing. But when he is home, he must work every minute, building thing?, painting, mowing the lawn, fixing everything around the house. She will never call in any outside help because she says they have to save for the children's education. We have tried to get Roland to stand up for himself like a man. But he hasn't the nerve to cross her in anything. He is over-worked, it's pathetic to see him sometimes. Is this the way to live? Roland P. I haven't known know what it is to relax in eight years. That's the truth. I don't think I'd know how to any more. But my parents don't seem to realize things aren't so easy for my wife. Her parents are very well off and she comes from a home where she only had to snap her fingers to get everything she wanted. Now she must do all her own work and it's not easy in a home the size of ours. . She doesn't spare herself any more than she spares me. She doesn't take it easy while I work. She is a perfectionist and I must say we have the most beautiful-well-cared-for home I've seen any place. The worst of it is, Ethel is hard to please. I always feel things fall far short of her ex pectations when I finish a job. She can do most things far bet ter than I can. When I try to tell her things don't have to be so perfect, she says "a man can't understand." But I know my mother isn't like that. I've asked her to talk to Ethel, but she's afraid of her, too. The Council: Sometimes ty rants and perfectionists have to be saved from themselves and this sounds like one of those cases. Probably most of them secretly long for someone to have the courage to oppose and conquer them. "Good" tyrants, like Ethel, manage to find some worthy cause to uphold, and that furth er intimidates their subjects. Ethel's desire for a beautifully ordered home cuts the ground from would-be rebels. How can any well-intentioned individual fight such idealism, especially when the leader herself seems ready to lay down her life for the cause? But certainly Ethel should be opposed and , Roland, not his mother, must be the one to do it. Roland should point out that, as a couple, they are the slaves of their home, not the masters of it. k If reason doesn't work, he should use more forceful meth ods such as the sit-down strike. He might also try kidnaping. Get Ethel away from that home of hers and show her the pleas ant world outside her obsession. (COPYRIGHT 1957 GENERAL FEATURES CORP. New Floppy Toys As a.

MAIL TRIBUNE SEVEN Registration of Wells Is Important, Official Says Corvallis Reports of water tables v dropping in scat tered locations of western Ore gon are emphasizing to farmers the importance of establishing priorities on irrigation wells by registering them before Aug. 3, 1958, Marvin Shearer, Oregon State college irrigation special ist, said today. Louis Stanley, state engineer, Salem, said "failure to register a well before Aug. 3, 1958, will result in a loss of any vested right which may exist by reason of actual appropriation and use of ground water prior to the ef fective date of Oregon's Ground Water act, Aug. 3, 1955. All irrigation wells construct ed in Oregon since Aug. 3, 1955, have required permits that es tablish a legal right for water use, Stanley noted. Permits and rights for eastern Oregon wells constructed prior to 1955 in com pliance with the old Ground Water act of 1927 are recog nized and require no action by the well owner. Watering Livestock The 1955 law does not apply to wells used for watering live stock, lawns, or for non-commercial gardens not exceeding one-half acre. Also exempt from registration are wells for single or group domestic uses not ex ceeding 15,000 gallons a day or for industrial or commercial purposes not exceeding 5,000 gallons a day. Forms for registering irriga tion wells are available from the state engineer, Salem. A ground water certificate is issued after eligibility for registration is de termined under provisions of the Ground Water act of 1955. Costs of regsitering wells gen erally vary from about S15 to $25, depending upon use of wat er and acreage involved. Large acreages may run higher than S25, Stanley said.
