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

ask for much more."
Washington William Sutherland, private secretary to K. A.

more about the restaurant affair."

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.

Try and Stop Me
By BENNETT CERF-
OGDEN NASH confesses, "At the age of 43 I was stage
struck, and that caused an odd bit of whimsy, The Sweet
Bye and Bye,' which said bye-bye to Broadway in exactly ten
days. At one performance,
the leading lady, looking
through the stage curtain
peep hole, murmured, "The
audience appears to be in a
nasty mood tonight' 'Don't
worry,' the leading man re
assured her. 'We'll probably,
outnumber them!" "
Herr Brockhous, publish
er of Schopenhauer's works

but the watch doesn't go." Brockhous replied, "I guess it takes
after your last book. That's not going, either."
Herb Stein defines a burlesque censor as one who "always has a
grind to axe."

MEDFORD (OREGON! 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.
