Macmillan's Hals Becoming Famous London- l?b -Prime Minis ter Harold Macmillan, whose hats are becoming as famous as Sir Winston Churchill's cigars, has picked a bowler for his trip to the United States. Two weeks ago, Macmillan arrived in Moscow in a 30-year-old tall white fur hat which instantaneously took Moscow-and much of the world-by storm. Returning from Northern .Ireland Saturday, Macmillan joked with reporters about the cloth cap he was wearing -"much more suitable" for Northern Ireland than the white fur, he said. Sunday, the Sunday Dis patch reported the Macmillan choice for his American trip in two weeks' time is to be that most British of hats, the derby.

Rebel Adolescents Despise Parents, Study Discloses MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Oregon, Monday, March 9, 1959 3 San Mateo, Calif. -(Science Service)- The rebellious adol escent, who might be called a "pre-delinquent," is one who despises his parents. He also tends to have an unrealistic opinion of himself. This was shown by a study of high school students who included 45 rebels and 30 "co operators." The study was conducted by Dr. Eva Maria Shippee-Blum of the San Ma teo Community hospital here and is reported in the Febru ary issue of the Journal of Consulting Psychology. Most Serious Problems The rebels made up the schools' most serious disciplin ary problems calling for spe cial handling. Many were on the "deans' black list." The cooperators were those able to attain high rankings on TASTE GREATNESS of C, T lames Vjrow s JAMES CROW created the first . modern bourbon- Masterpiece 3IL3B Born 124 years ago.

The rebels were not those who had been in trouble with the law but were known to ther teach ers' rating and high scores in "citizenship." The rebels were not those who had been in trouble with the law but were known to their teachers as difficult to handle and so were considered more nearly representative of the adoles cent population than are the "legal delinquents" on whom much of the research so far has been done. Average age of the group is 14 years with a range from 13 to 16. Intelli gence is average and the so cial status of the parents is predominantly middle class. An important difference found between the rebels and the cooperators is that the rebels regard themselves more highly than they regard their parents; cooperators admire their parents more than them selves. Admiration and respect for parents is important in the formation of what the psycho logist calls the superego. The superego is essential to con science and a knowledge of right and wrong. , Research Needed I Further research is needed, Dr. Shippee-Blum points out, to determine whether the reb el's low opinion of his parents may be justified. "It may be that dispassion ate observers would tend to agree with the rebels that their parents were less ad mirable than parents of co operators; but perhaps not. In the event that the rebels were correct in stating that their parents had few socially de sirable traits, one could then ascribe their defective - super ego to the inadequacies of their models and the conflict between their parental mo dels and the ideals held up by the society in which the rebels live. If that is the case, super ego development must be viewed in terms of the actual failing of parents to provide worthy behavior models to the child." f ., -j- $ Small Worlds Around Us By Lynn M. Watkins Everything Else Depends on Grass It is rather ironic that the common plant, grass, is actu ally the greatest single source of wealth in the entire world. Without it the human race would cease to be. In fact, without it, the human race would never have existed in the first place.

Truman To Visit California Paper Garden Grove, Calif. -(UPD-Former President Harry S. Truman has advised T. G. Wood, Garden Grove Daily News Managing editor, that he'll be "happy to visit" the newspaper when he's here April 4. Truman was invited by Wood to sit as an editor on the California newspaper af ter he said in a speech that he didn't know "what a free press is I have never seen one. I want to be a telegraph editor or one of those blue pencil men.. Then I could get what I wanted in the papers." In a telephone conversation to Wood from his Indepen dence, Mo., home, Truman declined to commit himself to acting as a telegraph ed itor on the paper. "I'm coming out to Los An geles April 4 and I would be happy to see you at that time and talk to you," the former President said. Truman told Wood he would be the guest of Ed Pauley, California Democrat ic leader and prominent oil man, and that his commit ments "might preclude my serving as an editor." 118 Building Permits Issued A total of 118 building per mits with a valuation of $359, 050 were issued during Febru ary by the city building de partment.

The basic reason why a thing is valuable is because it's indispensable to the greatest number of people. Different people have different values and varying needs; all races do not consider the same thing as a basis for wealth. There is an almost endless list of items we consider essential to our well-being, and the source of our worth, fundamentally they are not. Real Estate has been said to be the actual measure of how much a person, or even a na tion, is worth. On that real estate, of course, you have for ests, mines, oil and crops all the things we know to be wealth. But the answer is not real estate; neither is it stocks or bonds, insurance policies, mortgages or even money in the bank. It is none of these things. Sounds silly, doesn't it? It requires some thought on our part before the implication be come apparent. Men lived a long time on this earth before oil, coal, rubber, metal or a million other articles we cher ish, were discovered. The fundamental reason be hind everything is to live. The struggle to survive and to eat is the strongest emotion any living being possesses. It is more powerful than anything else in our lives. Even hunger itself is just another manifes tation of the desparate effort to stay alive. Grows Everywhere Grass covers nearly the en tire earth. There is some kind that grows everywhere. It holds the' earth into a solid whole. It furnishes food for grazing animals that become food for man. Some varieties of it form the entire food sup ply of entire races of people. Wheat, barley, oats and rice all are forms of grasses. Even sugar cane and bamboo belong to this family. Grass heals the scars on the earth's surface made by man or nature. It protects the roots of other plants. It enriches the soil, and retards the run of water that would otherwise erode away the land. All grass stems are jointed, each joint bearing a leaf. Both stem and leaf constantly are being renewed; it is the one plant that tries to go on for ever.
