TO "THEeUO 0PIS7 German Schools Established To Com bat Commie Subversion Bonn, Germany (IPI Three SDecial schools have been established In West Ger many to combat Communist subversion. But they are not concern ed with the strange, half world of spies, underground couriers, and state secrets. Their purpose is to coun ter the Communist attack in the world of ideas, and to prepare Western minds for service on the ideological bat tleground. Opening the "Eastern Col lege in Cologne, West Ger man Interior Minister Ger hard Schroeder warned that Communism's main aim re mained world revolution. It vvas not enough, he add ed to fight Communism by "laws, courts decisions and administrative measure s." The struggle must also be waged on the political and intellectual level where the idealogy and half-truths of Communist doctrine could be weighed in the balance and compared to the ideals of Western democracy. Has Precedent The Cologne College, pat terned on Britain's Wilton Park where Germans studied democratic "processes after World War II, has 10 resident professors who arrange the week-long courses while some 60 experts on Soviet affairs, both German and foreign are available as guest lecturers. Subjects dealt with include dialectrical materialism, So viet economic development, the church under Communist rule, natural science in the Soviet Union, and a general outline of Russian history. The college is designed to attract persons, who by vir tue of their positions in pub lic life, can best counter the Communist ideological at tack. A second school the "in stitute for eastern law" has been established in Munich, especially to study the legal basis of Communist states. Addressing the institute re cently, Bundestag Parliament Vice President Richard Jae ger said that in the Soviet Union and its satellite states law was an instrument of the ruling class, designed to up hold the power of the Com munist party, and linked nei ther legally nor morally to any independent standards. He warned that the real danger to the West would come when the Soviet Union Thailand Anti-Red, Premier Declares Bangkok nil Thai land's new Premier Lt. Gen. Thanon Kittikachorn declar ed Saturday his government was 100 per cent anti-Communist" and will maintain a policy solidly aligned with the Alliance of Free Nations. In his first interview since he formed the government on Jan. 1, the 46-year-old Pre mier told visiting American and other foreign newsmen: "This government is 100 per cent anti-Communist. We will continue to adhere to the policy of combatting Com munism in every way possible and suppressing thi3 doc trine." He added: "There is no change in Thailand's foreign policy of adhering to the ideals and aims of the United Nations and the Southeast Asia Treaty Organization. We will con tinue to adhere to this treaty to uphold the policy of col lective security with all mem ber countries." The stocky, mild - manner ed and smiling figure with a military bearing met news men in the large banquet hall of the Premier's big gleam ing white office in the out skirts cf this teeming capital of the key nation of SEATO, had in some measure match ed Western material progress and was ready for an all-out offensive on the ideological front. The third school, the "In stitute for Eastern Churches," which is attached to the theo- f logical faculty of Muenster's Wilhelm university, has a more limited aim of studying the history of the Protestant church in Germany's eastern territories, and making its findings available to church communities. Quotes From the News By UNITED PRESS Washington Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson, in calling the cost-price squeeze a major problem in 1958: "The entire nation should be concerned in stopping the price and wage spiral which is affecting adversely the 'keep home' pay of farms and the income of the major segment of our population." Memphis, Tenn. Milton Bowers, chairman of the Mem phis draft board, on ihe ruckus caused by Elvis Presley's 60 day deferment to make a movie: "With all due respect to Elvis, who's a damn nice boy, we've drafted people who are far, far more important than he is." New York Designer Nettie Rosenstein, after viewing the late Christian Dior's "The New Era" look: "It's fine if you're size 8, but if you have a big bosom it's awful, and twice as bad with a big derierre." Washington Democratic Senate whip Mike Mansfield (Mont.) in calling for more leadership from the White House in this country's missile race with Russia: "The country and Congress look to Eisenhower for lead ership. The Democrats will go more than half way in meeting Eisenhower if he exercises it." Oklahoma City Air Force Lt. Sam Merriman, awaiting word on whether his flying' career is ended because he sacri ficed a kidney to save his twin brother's life: "I imagine they will wait four or five weeks before de ciding whether I can fly again." London British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan, on his surprise proposal for an East-West non-aggression pact: "We are always ready to use new ideas and try new meth ods. Our purpose is to create confidence." The Family Council Editor's note: Ihe Family CouncU consists of 'judge, a psychiatrist, three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writers. Each article is a summary of an actual report. The Family Council does not give advice; it merely reports on problems that have been dealt with by responsible agencies and counselors. Raymond S. Mother won't come to live with us. Mrs. R. S. My daughter-in-law bears a grudge. Raymond S. I am the only child of a widowed mother. When I was married three years ago, my mother object ed very much to the match. My wife happens to be of a different faith, but aside from that, my mother had many other faults to find with her. Now my mother has been in poor health and I would like her to come live with us. I feel that my wife has been very generous and forgiving about the whole thing and is willing to have my mother with us. But my mother is as difficult as ever. She won't come, even though it means she must be dependent on neighbors when she isn't well. My mother isn't ill enough to be in a hospital, but I am constantly worried that some thing serious will happen while I'm away. Mrs. R. S. My son and daughter-in-law are trying to be kind to a helpless old wom an, but they don't care for me and I would be a terrible burden on them. My daughter-in-law is the type who pretends to be nice and easygoing, but under neath she holds grudges. I can tell the way she looks at me that she has never for given me for the way I acted before they were married. When my son is around, she would treat me nicely, but when he'd go away she'd come out in her true colors. I am still able to shift for myself. In fact, I can even help others because I've done some sewing for the neigh bors who helped me. The Council: Mrs. R. S. is not ready to move in with her son at this time, but much can be done to improve relationships in this family. If the move does become essential eventually, it can be done with much less strain on everyone concerned. Mrs. R. S., in her guilt about her hostility toward her daughter - in - law, obviously fears .this woman. If Ray mond's wife is sincere about wanting to help care for her mother-in-law, she will now make every effort to reassure her that she bears no grudges. This can't be done by a simple statement. Raymond's wife will have to devote some time to getting to real ly know and like her mother-in-law. She will have to give the elderly woman a chance to know her. She should make herself a frequent and cheerful visitor at Mrs. R.S.'s home. She should show that she doesn't consider Mrs. R.S. "old and helpless," but rather that she admires her inde pendent spirit. It would be a very good idea to make use of Mrs. R.S.'s ability in sewing. Ray mond's wife should show that she, as well as the neighbors, would appreciate some help on this score. If Mrs. R.S. could be made to feel that she can make a useful contri bution to her son's household, she will have less terror of being a helpless dependent in the home of a possibly hostile woman.
