The Family Council Editor1 note: The Family Council consists of a Judge, s psychiatrist, three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writers. Each article s a summary ol 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- . George D. S ally should apologize to Geraldine. Sally D. Never! I did no wrong. George D. My wife is a real little busybody and has gotten us into a mess with my best buddy, Fred. Fred is a weeper and a wailer. One day he came to cry on Sally's shoulder about his wife's being such a spend thrift. He complained he can't get out of debt because of Geraldine's spending, and he begged Sally to show her how to economize and budget. Like a real little jerk, Sally goes ahead and gives Geral dine a lecture. Naturally Geraldine freezes up and first thing we know the welcome mat is no longer out for us at the home of the R's. Now it happens that I like this shmoe, Fred, despite all his faults. We have always had the greatest times to gether. I hate to see a bust-up over this nonsense. I feel that JLally should apologize to Geraldine. Sally D Apologize? Never! I did nothing wrong. I was trying to be a good true, hon est friend. I meant no harm and only did what I was asked to do to help out Fred. It was really all Fred's fault and I feel if he were any man at all he would ex plain everything to his wife. He really presented me with a pitiful picture and made me promise to speak to Geral dine at the first opportunity. I never did "deliver a lec ture" as George accuses me. I merely told her in as gentle a fashion as I knew that I consider it a wife's responsi bility to free her husband from as many money prob lems as she is able, and I showed her how I budget. I never even suggested that she do the same. I just thought she'd take the hint. It's not my fault that my good intentions went haywire. The Council: Is Sally a "good, true, honest friend"? Well, she probably means to be. But is she right? Definite ly not! Sally's good true, friendly act should coirectly have end ed before she lent Fred her shoulder to cry on. She could have put off his complaints about his wife in a gentle, hu ' morous way. If that didn't work, she should have showed she. didn't take his remarke ( HEMORRHOIDS ) V) 47 YEARS of successful practice in the treatment of rectal, colon and stomach disorders.

She should have reject ed the idea that Geraldine in any way compares unfavor ably "To her.' . Most important, Sally should never have agreed to talk to Geraldine about the problem no matter how "gently and subtly." Since the matter had undobutedly been under dis cussion between Fred and Geraldine, "the ' hint" Sally gave probably hit like a blow on the head. Even worse, George has probably been go ing around feeling like kick ing himself for having "open ed up," displaying a certain disloyalty to his wife. Sally can expect no help from that quarter in the way of an "ex planation" to Geraldine. Should Sally apoligize? We don't think it would help. It would just dig up the whole mess. If George values Fred's friendship so highly, he should swallow his pride a bit and persist in trying to get to gether with him, with or with out "the girls." They may come around if they see the men are still friends despite the brief blowup. (Copyright 1958, General Features Corp.) Guam has been a possession of the United States since 1898.

India Cattle Face Starvation Patna, India (IP) More than six million cattle face imminent starvation in the state of Behar because of a drought dating back almost to last monsoon period. The monsoon rains, brought floods in some areas, particu larly along the banks of the Koshi, Behar's "river of sor row." But larger parts of the state never had even a frac tion of the rains that threat en crops in most years. The state government esti mated the loss to the rice crop alone at over 50 per cent. Behar's food minister told the legislature that "paddy fields in the countryside pre sent a dismal appearance, and our farmers are engaged in a frantic effort to save the fields for the next season. "But," he added, "sagging stretches of the parched paddy fields at many places are hard to save." ' The Praja Socialist party of Behar charged that while the government contends the scarcity of food has not yet precipitated starvation condi tions among the people, about 12 million persons are report ed to be hit by the food short age. Not 50 per cent, but 80 OPERA STAR SUICIDES Rome (IPI Retired opera soprano Bianca Candioli, 64, who won international re nown in the 1930s, committed suicide Tuesday by jumping from a fifth floor window, po lice said. per cent of the crops have been lost, this party claimed. The drop in paddy produc tion is reflected in a corre sponding drop in the produc tion of straw, the usual fodder for cattle. While men migrate to the . cities or the state capital by thousands seeking relief, the cattle left behind die daily. for Jlictlra a( tL- SUPREMO COURT POSITION NO. 3 An Experienced Lawyer An Able Judge Pd.
