Washington Congressman
V.'alter Norblad, amid reports
he will have strong Republi-
' WJ'y ocratic oppo
sition for re
election this
7"JV:, fall, is step--1
l-J Pin up his
contact with
Oregon voters
by sending
them a fancy
questionnaire
about current
events. The 1st district Repub
lican representative said he is
mailing out about 85,000
copies to what he considers a
suitable cross-section of the
voters of all political alle
giance. The questionnaire,
under a large photo of Nor
blad superimposed over a pic
ture of the U. S. Capitol, lists
16 questions ranging from
missiles to a state sales tax.
"As your representative in
Congress, I am interested in
knowing your viewpoint on
many o the issues coming be
fore this current session,"
Norblad wrote each recipient.
"This is the best way I know
to make the federal govern
ment more responsive to the
ideas of the individual Ameri
can." Norblad said he phrased
each question "so they would
be unbiased and not an indi
cation of my own feelings."
Hitchcock May Be Foe
The only Republican in the
Oregon congressional delega
tion, Norblad may have heavy
opposition this year. Philip
Hitchcock of Portland is a
likely GOP challenger in the
primary. Attorney General
Robert Y. Thornton is consid
ering running fpr Norblad's
seat, if he gets the Democratic
nomination.
In a reflection of what is
sues he considers prime ones
for the coming session of Con
gress and the election to fol
low, Norblad posed these
questions:
Should defense spending be
boosted a billion or more for
missiles and satellites, and
should domestic federal pro
grams be curtailed?
Should the farm price sup
port program be continued,
and should it be extended be
yond basic crops?
Should Congress require la
bor union books to be audited
publicly, and should anti
trust laws be applied to un
ions? Should postal rates be
raised to reduce the post of-j
fice deficit?
construction program be
launched?
Should reterans -with non
service connected disabilities
continue to get government
payments, and access to vet
erans hospitals? And should
all World War I vets get a
pension without regard to fi
nancial need?
of continuing our reciprocal
trade agreements?
The last question dealt with
an issue not before Congress.
"As you know, there is a
great deal of discussion in
Oregon currently on a state
sales tax." observed Norblad.
"Do you favor an Oregon sales
tax?"
The Family Council
Editor'i note: The Family Council consists of a 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
nith by responsible agencies and counselors.

Frank P Nobody s going prove himself, plus Gloria,
to push me around.
Mrs. L. P. My husband
and I are quite concerned
about our 17-yar-old boy,
Frank, who is very short and
young-looking for his age.
Frank is very eager to date
girls, as all of his friends do,
but the girls of 15 and 16 just
won't go out with him. It was
pathetic to see him call girl
after girl and get "no" for an
answer when he wanted to go
to one of the school dances.
As a result, Frank started
going out with a 13-year-old
girl whose parents objected
to her going out at all espec
ially with a boy as old as
Frank. The kids started going
out on the sly, but her parents
heard about it and asked us
to stop Frank. We have cut
off his allowance, but he re
fuses to stop seeing this girl.
Frank P It's not that I'm
so crazy about this girl Glor
ia, but I'm not going to have
everyone treating me as
though I'm a 2-year-old: I
don't need any allowance to
take Gloria out because I
make enough money working
weekends in a store.
Everyone seems to think
they can push me around as
though I was nobody, just
because I look young for my
age. Some guys I know have
the minds of an infant in the
crib, but girls go out with
them because they are six
feet tall.
Gloria and I are doing no
thing wrong by going out.
Her parents have some nerve
to complain about me. She
has gone out with other boys
on the sly before. She isn't
any innocent baby when it
comes to boys and dating.
a tricky, rebellious 13-year-old,
add up to a dangerous
combination. The L. P.'s
would do weel to heed the
warning of Gloria's parents
and try to control the situa
tion from their end.
Frank need lots of reas
surance about his appearance
and his Suture with girls,
but his parents can't give this
to him if they let themselves
be drawn into his feeling of
despair. His mother shows a
bit too much sympathy for
him on this subject and too
little grasp of reality.
Frank should be made to
realize that he can expect to
grow and change quite rapid
ly within the next few years,
but that in any case, physical
appearance counts less and
less with girls as they grow
older. They honor ability and
personality far more. Frank
should be encouraging: to sit
out this difficult period, work
at improving his school grades
and gaining new skills so that
within a couple of years he
can shine as he would like to.
One way of getting Frank
to calm down a bit on the
subject of dates and girls is
to treat him as much like a

grownup as possible. He
should be shown that his
opinions and attitudes will be
respected if they are reason
able. Then he can be shown
that his attitude about Gloria
is unreasonable. A responsi
ble man of 17 does not take
out a child of 13 against her
parents' wishes. He'll get the
idea, if his ego gets the right
kind of lift at the same time.
