The group urged that this be one of the important areas of study at the 1960 White House Conference on Children and Youth. The emerging moral and social values among many of today's youth often result in a breakdown of communica tion between children and their parents the group noted. Both parents and commun ity welfare organizations are finding it difficult to keep pace with the needs and in terests of today's children, the social workers said. One member of the group observed that while physical changes in the world have been progressing geometrical ly, social changes have been advancing only arithmetical ly. Third in Series The meeting was the third in a series by Mrs. Katherine B. Oettinger, chief of the Children's Bureau, to obtain suggestions of various pro fessional groups concerning the forthcoming conference. Specific questions that the group, composed of 25 social work leaders from private and public agencies and schools of social work, pro posed that the 1960 Confer ence consider, included: What steps should be taken Look slumped like this... Tired back muscles may cause poor posture. But here' good news. You get better posture as a plus when yoa sleep on a Sealy Postnrepedic Mattress.

What can be done to give greater assistance to children and families in socio-economic groups with special prob lems? What can be done to pre vent a rivalry situation be tween the needs of two burst ing population groups - chil dren and old people? What proportion of our national income must be con sciously devoted to strength ening child welfare and fam ily living? The social workers agreed that the 1960 White House conference could not hope to "blueprint" the future for to day's children, but recom mended that it consider what parents can do to help pre pare their children for the changes now occurring m the vorld. The group suggested that in preparation for the 1960 conference, state committees and local planning groups re view the goals set forth in previous White House confer ences in order to measure the progress made. Only by analysis and under standing of the roadblocks which have prevented full realization of previous goals for children can communities set out realistically toward the achievement of the need ed goals for children in the decade from I960 to 1970, the group agreed. 5X when CD yov want to FEEL LIKE i0.

YAM HEALTHFUL Blacksburg, Va. - (UPD - The sweet potato has a high and energy value. It's full of pro teins and carbohydrates, and a fair source of iron. Its po tassium salts bring about a basic reaction in the body, balancing the acid effects of breadstuffs, meats and eggs. r. 1 most of the victims said they are the worrying kind 35 per cent of them fretting over money, another 35 per cent over the kids. Few Blame Husbands Only 10 per cent blamed headaches onhusbands, and here the proolem seemed to be the family argument rather than the "other woman." Another 10 per cent blam ed noise of their own children and only rarely the noise of neighbors, traffic and fac tories. Other headache causers were health, jobs and friends. Miss Rittenhouse holds a Ph. D. from the Graduate School of Business Adminis tration at New York Uni versity. She teaches market ing at Fordham University and heads the home reasearch staf for makers of Bufferin, which underwrote the study. " She said the questionnaires showed women in suburbia are more frequent headache victims than their sisters in cities. Women 24 years and younger seem to have more headaches from fatigue and worry than older women, and develop them during the day or evening. The older women are more apt to wake up with headaches. The researcher didn't go into the reasons for this. . - Reasons Vary The Rittenhouse study showed the ladies' sense of humor intact, even if their heads hurt. "I'm a teacher 'nuff said," reDlied one woman, when asked what she believed cause her headaches. It's my own nasty dispo sition," said another. ."Raising whooDee," replied a third Still another said, "trouble with husband's relatives." Women claimed "too little sleep", "worry", "TV", "nerves or sinus, whichever is working at the time," and "my three wonderful angels, God bless 'em." One woman listed "circumstances in my home they're unusual. We try anything once and it can be trying." Mv own favorite answer came from the woman wno said headches occurred "if I'm late and have to rush, so it's probably nerves. Besides, I live in Brooklyn."

More Women Finding Jobs In RadioTV United Press International Job oDoortunities for wom en in radio and television are increasing. So says Edythe Fern Mel rose, veteran Detroit broad caster and president of the "American Women in Radio and Television." "This is an emotional type business." says Miss Melrose, "and women's emotions make them better able to, interpret nublic needs. Besides, wom en are practical in their ap- nroach to advertising and there's a top advertising sales job for a woman at nearly everv station." The Detroit broadcaster, an executive, of stations WXYZ- TV. thinks there soon may be more programs on home design, decorating and family living. "One woman on the staff of every station who concen trates on this field can per form a real service," she says. Miss Melrose who suggests that radio stations could use women commentators on pub lip affairs. Girls who'd lite to wind up as commentators should start as secretaries, she ad vises. And she believes girls aiming for radio and TV ca reers should have college backgrounds. Taste in Wallpaper . Undergoing Change Chicago -(CM- Modern wall paper designers are seeking "timelessness" in design, ac cording to midwest decorators Denst and Soderlund, Inc. "Doodle modern" is a thing of the past, say the trend setting designers. "The public taste chang ing gradually the last few years has definitely turned to the softer, subtler art form in wallpaper." The textured look, say Denst and Soderlund, con tinues to rise in popularity. When buying eggs, look for a carton that has small slits on the bottom. The slits allow a broken egg to run out and prevent the consumer from "getting stuck" with hidden breakage. k I Invited To Party Welcome Wagon club of Medford invites newcomers to the community who have lived .here two years or less to a patio potluck dinner dance to be given by the club tomorrow, Saturday, Septem ber 20, at 7 p.m. Mr. and Mrs. Dee Wood, 1517 Jasper street, will be hosts for the evening.

Main Medford Phone SP 2-4848 Where The Fit Is Guaranteed Americans Said Spending Half-Billion Each Year To By ANTHONY ZECCA UPI CorresDondent Philadelphia -UPD- America is going to the dogs to the tune of a half-billion dollars a year. That's how much it's cost ing us to let dogs lead a dog's life, said Harry Miller, one of the nation's leading canine connoisseurs and Director of the Gaines Dog Research Cen ter. Miller pegs the nation's pooch population at 25 mil lion, which includes 113 rec ognized breeds, one-third of all there are. "There's no recession in the dog industry," said Miller. 'It's thriving, with 40 pet- cent of the nation's homes having one or more, dogs. We figure the total gross last year, including sale of pup pies; food, shows, medical ex penses and otherwise, was well over $500 million." Dog Food Biggest Hem Biggest item, he explained, was $325 million for dog food, the likes of which Mother Hubbard's Cupboard never imagined. There are canned foods, meal types, baked goods, frozen foods and spe cial prescription foods. Then there are diets aimed at re ducing obese dogs, those to aid the kidneys of aging dogs, other high protein diets for dogs who are under stress, and menus for just about every condition imaginable. Nerv ous dogs get tranquilizing drugs; listless ones get energy foods. For the most part," said Miller, "dogs are treated as members of the family. They get sick and old like humans, and they get medicine and hospitalization in the same manner." Miller's book "Puppy and Dog Care" is a best - seller among dog owners, and its proceeds go to the Cornell Re search Laboratory for Dis eases of Dogs. But there are as many varied publications on dogs as cross-breeds. National Listing You can, for example, get a national listing of hotels and motels which do not dis criminate against dogs if you're traveling. There's a pamphlet on dog names; there's one that tells you how to enjoy a dog show,, another on how to groom ypur dog, and one entitled, "Our Dog's Health Record," in which you Navy Announces Tests for NROTC The Navy has announced that the 13th annual national competitive examinations for the regular Naval Reserve Of ficers Training corps will be given to interested high school seniors and graduates Dec. 13. Application forms are now available at all high schools, colleges, Navy recruiting sta tions or from the Chief of Naval Personnel, Washington 25, D.C. Forms must be re ceived before Nov. 15, the Navy said. . The program is designed to supplement the officer output of the Naval academy, and regular commissions are given upon completion of four years college work. $11.95 Widths A to C Dollars Raise Dogs record all his shots, treat ments and visits to the veteri narian, a counterpart to the Our Baby" book. It even has a space for the pooch's pic ture." Dogdom, in brief, is enjoy ing a boom, said Miller. Wp know that two out of every five homes being set up win nave a dog," he stated. In a great many cases, the dog comes before the child. If the couple raises the dog right, cnances are they II do a pretty good job with the child." New Algerian Exile Government Could Upset Plan Paris (UPD Creation of an Algerian government-in- exile could upset French Pre mier Charles de Gaulle's peace plans for Algeria, in formed sources said today. They said it could also bring France's relations with Morocco and Tunisia close to the breaking point and em barrass the United States as well. The rebel National Libera tion Front was expected to announced establishment of a free" Algerian government in Cairo today. Government officials here have been hoping Algerian participation in the Sept. 23 referendum on De Gaulle's new constitution would ease the conflict over Algerian de mands for independence. United States on Spot But establishment of a rebel government in Cairo would mean Algerian leaders were ready and willing to continue the struggle in definitely, in the opinion of some observers here. As for the United States, it would be placed in the posi tion of having to recognize or ignore the new regime, recog nition would severely strain relations with France, and Paris officials considered this course extremely unlikely. Ignoring the "free" gov ernment, on the other hand, would risk losing more ground in Washington's ef forts to woo Arab nations in the Western camp. Arab experts pointed out Morocco and Tunisia prob ably would be forced to recog nize the new Algerian re gime. They said this could lead to a rupture of diplo matic relations b e t w e en France and the former protectorates. free lEssmv. With each Instrument! 41V RE1W A Brand New Top Brand INSTRUMENT!

That figure is the family's share of the gross public and private debt which now ex ceeds S850 billion. It is an amount roughly triple the average family's annual in come. Since 1953, the per family share of the total debt has grown by S2,500. The sharpest increase has taken place in the private sector, principally reflecting sharp increases in mortgage and consumer debt. The Tax Foundation, a non profit research organization, estimates that the average family's share of the cross government has grown from $6,375 in 1953 to more than $6,600 at present. It estimates that the per family share of the total private debt, includ ing corporate debt, has swelled from $7,161 to $9,318. The Tax Foundation noted that a $4,500-a-year income ' family pays out $1,3S3 each year in direct and hidden taxes. In the six years 1953 through 1958 this family has paid a total of $8,500 in taxes, the foundation said. Interstate Bridge Pattern Restored Vancouver, Wash. (UPD A familiar traffic pattern at the north' end of the Interstate bridge was restored at 9 a.m. today and will remain in ef fect for the next year-and-a-half, until remodelling is com pleted on the old span. For three weeks, heavy traffic between Portland and Vancouver has been channel ed into two narrow lanes at the north end of the new bridge while construction work progressed. Resumption of the old pattern will mean that four-lane traffic on the Vancouver freeway will be restored and the Camas ap proach will be reopened. A speed zone of 25 miles per hour at the north end of the bridge remains in effect and police said it would be rigidly enforced.
