Only Democratic Gov. Averell Har riman of New York has spok en out for personal income tax cuts. Democratic Gov. G. Men nen Williams of Michigan said he thought it was too late for general tax reduction to be useful to combat the re cession.

Smy lie of Idaho announced he would ask the conference to go on record for repeal of the transportation tax to "effect immediate acceleration of eco nomic recovery."

Each article is a snmmary 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 connselors- Theresa M. My husband pampers the children. Henry M. She's too strict. Theresa M. My husband and I have been married six years and have three young children. Our marriage would be quite happy if it weren't for our many quarrels about the children. I feel that, as a mother, I know what is best for them. My husband feels he ought to be allowed to do just as he pleases with them, but he has no sense at all about what is best for them. Every night he comes home with different toys for them and the house is flooded with more things than they can ever enjoy. Henry thinks nothing of waking up a child late at night to give him a kiss or a new toy. He takes the children out on Sunday and exhausts them and gets their stomachs upset with all kinds of treats. Then I have to spend all the next day car ing for the child. Henry M. I was or phaned at an early age and brought up in my grandpar ents' home. They were very strict and I had none of the things most children enjoy. I had no sisters or brothers and I have often longed for one I could play with and maybe spoil a little. Naturally, I want to give my kids some of the things I missed. I feel Theresa is much too strict with them. She is often nervous and yells at them or swats them for no good reason at all. Whenever I want to do something with one of the kids, Theresa's immediate re action is "No." If she sees me playing and laughing with thp kids, she says they're get ting too wild and noisy. She seems to resent my having anything to do with them. After all, they're mine too, and I care about them at least as much as she does: The Council: Somehow these parents seem to have fallen into the pattern of com peting for possession of the children, and that is certainly all wrong. Henry makes an under standable case out of his rea sons for wanting to give his children as much fun as pos sible. But if Theresa's accu sation that he endangers the health of the child is true, it is obvious he has some other selfish motive for his excess pampering. On the other hand, if there is truth in Henry's accusation that Theresa always tries to Light Used Cars! Special sale on selected new Edsels at low, low prices!

We suspect each of these parents is egging the other on. Each feels pushed out of the picture by the other and the children are the unhappy vic tims of this shameful struggle for power. When parents are in con stant open disagreement, chil dren are forced to take sides, Thfi children may begin to think of their mother as a shrew and a kill-joy, or they may think their father is a fool and will suspect his treats are really intended to buy their affections. They will also dimly sus pect they are being used as pawns in a battle they don't understand and they will feel they have been denied their rightful share of parental love. If they are truly concerned about the children's welfare above all else, Theresa and Henry will discuss their dis agreements privately and ra tionally.
