They want the facts straight from the shoulder. The President is the only person with the prestige and confidence of the American people to call this nation into a period of sacrifice, renewed dedication and a return to God." Working Mother aid Here By VIVIAN SANDE United Press Correspondent New York (IF) Hot on the heels of Margaret Truman Daniel' announcement that she k returning to work comes a report that working mothers in America are here to stay. The concensus of the 90 men and women participants in the National Manpower Council's six-day national conference on "Work in the Lives of Married Women" is that it is inevitable that increasing numbers of mar ried women will go to work for at least 10 years, and that to far her appearance on the la bor market has produced gener ally desirable effects. By and large the conference found the fact that more and more women are taking jobs outside the home after marriage has improved living standards, helped fill a need in the labor market, and so far has failed to create any community problem related to the care of the chil dren of working mothers. However, the leaders in bus iness, industry, education, labor unions, government and national women's child and social wel fare, guidance and religious or ganizations, who attended the conference, admitted it will be some , time before we. can evalu ate the effect the change is hav ing on civic standards and chil dren, or how it will affect fu ture generations. Family Problems Vary They agreed that no one can generalize on the effects of the social change at this time, that problems are different in each family, in each area of the coun try, and in each industry. It is up to the individual woman and her family, they concluded to decide whether or not returning to work following marriage is good or bad for her. During the discussions. Sec retary of Labor James P. Mitch ell said, "the national economy is so geared to contributions of women workers, it could not op erate without them." He predict ed there will be 28-million wom en employed on a full or part time basis by 1965. Mrs. Katherine Brownell Oet tinger, chief of the United States Department of Labor's Chil dren's Bureau said no research study yet has established any relationship between maternal employment and juvenile delin quency or the maladjustment of children. Leo Bartemeir, medical direc tor of the Seton Psychiatric In stitute in Baltimore, brought up the point that when a wife works it sometimes makes it necessary for a father to help care for the children. This can be a good thing, he said. Threatens Father's Position Eleanor MacCoby of Harvard DR. LEE MELLISH, D.M.D. Announces the Removal of his office from Medical Center Building to 836 East 3 : ' News to University, however, warned that of the mother's status as a wage earner weakens the fath er's position in the home it might be bad for the children. The conferees generally did agree this is a complex force of change in our society, and that much additional research is need ed to evaluate it. Among the factors considered most needful of further investigation are: the areas of educating women for their new roles; ways to best use the abilities in the labor market; the older women's value to the labor market and her po tential in it; and the social and psychological problems as it ef fects the children of working mothers, and their families. The study papers and discus sions of the National Manpower Council's conference "Work in the lives of married women" held last week at Arden House, the Harriman campu's of Colum bia University will be published in the spring of 1958. Articles Filed for State Tax League Klamath Falls Articles of in corporation were filed last week for the Oregon Non-Partisan Tax league by Mrs. Josephine Kit tredge, William F. McKibben, and William Ganong Jr., all of Klamath Falls. The organization, filing as a non-profit corporation, is an out growth of the Non-Partisan Tax League of Klamath county, an organization which has attracted state-wide interest since it was formed here several months ago. According to Mrs. Kittredge, the tax league has been in corporated on a state-wide basis so that other county taxpayers' groups now being formed may unite in a central organization. Due for organization within the next two weeks, Mrs. Kittredge said, are groups in Multnomah, Marion, Umatilla, Lane Wash ington, Douglas. Lake, and Jack son counties. Every county in the state should be organized within six months, she said. While the primary interest of the tax league will be "a sound, sensible tax program for Oregon, reached through non partisan research, education, and taxpayer action," Mrs. Kit tredge stated, the door was left open for the organization to enter into allied fields. Such additional purposes as research relative to Oregon resources, job stability, industrial expan sion, and better marketing of agricultural products were also cited in the articles.

Rudolf Ivanovich Abel was convicted Friday of conspiring to gather and send to Russia American atomic and mil itary secrets. Abel, 56, faces the death pen alty under the federal law that resulted in the execution of Am erican spies Julius and Ethel Rosenberg in 1953. Federal Judge Mortimer W. Byers scheduled sentencing for Nov. 15. If he composed the death pen alty on Abel, the spindly, stoic Soviet secret police agent would be the first foreign national to die in peacetime for spying in the U. S.

Stocks dur ing last week gave a demonstra tion of the weakness and strength of 1929 markets and finished the week just about unchanged. The big news vas made on Wednesday when the industrial average soared 17.34 points in it3 widest gain since Monday, Nov. 14, 1929. That spurt came after the list had plumbed to new lows on Tuesday since Dec. 2, 1954. on moderate losses. On Monday the industrials plunged 10.77 points in their widest break since the Eisen hower heart attack market of Oct. 10, 1955. At the close on Tuesday, the list showed a drop in paper values of all listed issues of $47, 700,000,000 from July 12 when the market made its 1957 high. The Wednesday rally brought back more than 17 per cent of this loss with a dollar gain of 58,225,000,000. Possible Reasons for Rally Why the sudden turnabout? No one could put his finger on a single reason, but several were conjured up and they seemed to fit. In the first place the mar ket had been driven down more than 100 points in the indus trial average to a level below '420 which some held to be a buying level. Also President Eisenhower had warned against too much pessimism, and the Air Force shot off a rocket that soared 4,- Ifeuiteatce iD) face mY IflB iw2 IJliiS ESSE iiiiSBjFYtL It oocs and fees It itons cm gasoline and poRs on wheels.

Also there was some easing of Mideast tension, and statements by economists that 1958 would be more of a levelling-off process for business than a recession. No recession was foreseen. That seemed to be sufficient reasoning for the mutual funds and other big investors to jump back into the market on a huee scale. They bought their heads i off and sent the tickers far be hind the floor trades most of the time. The tape was eight minutes late at one time in the big up turn. Heavy Friday Sessions Modest profit taking later which brought minor declines Thursday and Friday plus the break on Monday left little change in the averages at the weekend.
