I i s ' WIS, fit VI 5 f' 1 r K-r .Mi v. j i M8L -v: I 5 I) RUNNING FROM FIRE A fleeing deer runs along the edge of a raging brush fire at Hidden Valley, Calif. Some 200 acres have been burned in the area, which is near Los Angeles. - The Family Council Editor's note: The Family Council consists of Judge, a psychiatrist, three clergymen, a newspaper editor a women's editor and two writers. Each article is a summary f an actual report. The Family Council '-;es not give advice; it merely report on problems that have been dealt with by responsible azenciM a4 counselors. Gerard G. '- There should be limits to her career. Sandra G. - He likes my weekly pay check. ' Gerard G. I am married to a career woman. Sandra and I are both in our early 20s and we've been married two years. She has a good job and I am happy for her that she's succeeding. Just the same I think there should be some limits to this career business. I wouldn't mind if Sandra's working day , ended at 5 p.m., but when she brings work home or insists upon taking courses to ad vance her .career, that's just too much. I do enjoy having my wife's company in the evening. But she always acts as though I'm pulling her away from some thing more important. It's not very flattering. Sandra is planning to go on working after we have children. She wants to hire a housekeeper. keep telling her she won't be able to bring work home then. She'll have to give the chil dren some time. Sandra G. - Gerry likes it very much when that weekly pay check of mine comes in. He agrees that it is necessary if we are to be able to live up to the standard we both want. His work will never pay much even when he gets into the upper brackets of his profession. Well, if I'm told to go on with my career I have to take it every bit as seriously as Gerry takes, his. Incidentally, he often brings home work himself. He doesn't think it implies any insult to me if he is too busy with his work to pay attention to me. I realize that I won't be able to devote much time to my work after we have chil dren so I think it's important that I get in all the back ground I can now'. I think 'Gerry really objects to my having a career. The Council: All of life's satisfactions must carry a price tag, it seems. The women of 50 years ago who longed for Sandra's op portunities led a life that was undoubtedly frustrating in many ways. Sandra certainly must get many satisfactions from her career, but she shouldn't kid herself into thinking that she isn't paying a price for these. The time, energy and emo tional involvement she takes away from her husband and home also deprive her of many rich pleasures more than she realizes. The facts of life and nature being what they are a woman simply cannot operate at full capacity in two separate worlds. Some women manage to do remarkably well, but they" delude themselves if they think that sacrifices are not being made at both ends of the line. In the long run, most wom en are happier sacrificing their ambitions in the world of w.ork to the world that rep resents their feminine domain. The problem, however, is an individual one. If Sandra were to sacrifice her career ambi tions in a spirit of bitterness she would not do much good to herself, her husband or the children, she hopes to have. But if she makes the sacri fice in a spirit of affirmation of sacrificing a lesser good for a greater good, the rewards would surely be great. The fi nancial loss will seem small in comparison. Sandra at least ought to con sider the path chosen by so many women today that of giving up work during the child - bearing and rearing years and resuming it later in life. There is no doubt that the career will suffer, but oth er gains may be very great. ' (Copyright 1959. General Features Corp.) Committee Approves Yaquina Project Fund-.

Brown of California this week-end that he will urge his supporters to back Brown in case of a challenge in that state's presidential primary. Brown is staking a favorite son claim to the big California delegation to be chosen in the primary next June for the 1 9 6 0 Democratic National Convention. Kennedy Uncommitted Sen. John F. .Kennedy (D Mass.) now viewed as the front - running candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination, has not commit ted himself to stay out of Cali fornia. The word from the Ken nedy camp, however, is that he is very unlikely to chal lenge Brown in the California primary or Sen. George Smathers, another prospective favorite son, in the Florida primary. Kennedy is reported much more eager to enter the Ohio primary, despite the wishes of Gov. Michael V. DiSalle to commit that state's delegation to a favorite son, such as Di Salle. Humphrey is understood to have assured DiSalle that he would urge Ohio backers to support the governor in that state's primary. He expects to see Brown in Los Angeles this week end and to give him the same as surance. Oregon Clash Seen .
