American Mother of Year
Has Ideas On
By JEANNE LESEM
United Press International
New York-dJPD-Judge Jen
nie Loitman Barron once sen
tenced a man to take hQ wife
out to dinner every week.
Judge Barron, - named the
American Mother of the Year
for 1959 by the American
Mothers Committee, Inc.,
handed down her decision
several years ago in Boston
Municipal Court. The defend
ant was appearing before her
on a charge of beating his
wife because supper was late.
With six small children to
care for, the wife had a good
excuse, the Judge said in an
interview. So she orderedso-
cial workers to help find a
baby-sitter one night a week
to give the parents some time
to themselves ayay from
home.
Decisions like this have
earned Judge Barrji the nick
name of "the judge with a
heart." Her appearance re
flects the title.
She is a short, plump, motherly-looking
person with a
warm smile and a forthright
manner. , Her old r fashioned
pince nez glasses and simple
coiffure (graying dark hair
brushed back into a French
knot) temper warmth with the
dignity , "befitting the first
woman appointee to the Mas
sachusetts Superior Court. She
was given the post in Febru
ary after 22 years on the Mu
nicipal Court bench.
Has Simple Meals
But she never has let her
career interfere with her fam
ily life, which revolves around
her husband, Samuel, a law
yer and bankerp their three
daughters and six grandchil
dren. -
Her professional work and
civic activities don't leave
much time for cooking, she
said, but she has no regrets.
"I don't consider myself a
candidate for a
cooking
prize," she laughed. "My
daughters are much more ef
ficient than I, and they're bet
ter cooks, too. They help me
supervise preparations for
dinner parties";
Festive dinners are fre
quent in the Barron home in
Brookline, Mass. Friday night,
the Jewish sabbath, is family
night, with the dinner table
seldom seating fewer than 12
to 16 persons. Besides the par
ents, two daughters (the third
died in 1956), the sons-in-law
and grandchildren, two guests
usually are added-often stu
dents who are far from home
and family. !;
The . fare is good but not
fancy. The judge holds no
brief for women who make a
big project of cooking, and
whp neglect family relation
ships to produce elaborate
meals.
"Learn to delegate jobs,"
she advised working wives.
"It's better to have someone
to help."
But what of women whose
budgets don't permit a cook
or maid? :
Husband Should Help
"Then the hujband should
pitch in. He must realize that
his wife also got through a
working day at 5 o'clock," she
said.
Even so, they shouldn't eat
dinner at home every night,
added the jurist, whose own
career has made her more a
