Democrats Ready
To Challenge Ike
To Risk Record
-" Washington - (LTD - Demo
crats were ready today to
challenge Pesldent" Eisenhow
er 10 nsK once more his rec
ord of never having had a law
enacted over his veto. . '
They p 1 a n ne d to push
through , the. house - by nieht-
fall a new $1,185,309,093 pub
lic works appropriation bill
carrying funds for all of the
67 : projects which . prompted
him to veto the first bill 11
days ago.
Republicans said they didn't
s how they : could muster
enough votes to knock out
disputed funds on the House
floor. They had even - less
hope the Senate would delete
them.
?Dar To Congressmen
The bill carries money to
finance flood control and nav
igation projects throughout
the country and reclamation
projects in the West. The proj
ects are dear to the hearts of
many congressmen.
Six days ago, the House
failed by only one vote to
muster the two-thirds margin
needed to enact the first bill
over the President's veto. The
new bill is identical except
for an across-the-board cut of
2.5 per cent for all projects.
This trimmed the measure
$30 million below the first
bill . and $97,166 below the
amount requested by Eisen
hower. But it did not meet
his objection to starting new
water development projects
which ultimately would cost
about $800 million.
Several .House Republicans
who voted to uphold the first
veto said that they would not
do so again on the second bill.
There was divided opinion as
to whether the President
would veto the second bill
and, if so, whether Congress
would get a chance to over
ride him. V -Angry
Attack Seen
. Some lawmakers felt that
the President would sign the
second bill with an angry at-
tack on the Democrats and
' then get his way by "freezing"
funds alloted for some or all
of the disputed projects.
Others felt that Eisenhower
might veto the second bill af
ter Congress adjourns and
then call the legislators back
for a special session to write
a third measure.

Betty D. - The children
know too much for their own
good. .
Daniel D. I don't want
my childrento be as ignor
ant as I was. .
Betty D. A recent case
prominently featured in the
newspapers flamed a long
standing controversy between
my husband and me. The case
was the one involving
schoolteacher who conducted
a sex survey in his class
room.
We send our children to a
private school. They get
certain amount of sex educa
tion in some of their classes
Personally, I feel they go too
far and some of the discus
sions tend to make the kids
dwell on these things ' too
much. I feel they know too
much for their own good.
My husband disagrees-and
so do many of the parents,
Am I old-fashioned in my
idea that the early and mid
dle teenagers are too young
for a lot of sex talk?
-
Daniel D. - I was brought
up the old - fashioned way.
Whatever I learned about sex
was learned in the streets
Many of the things I learned
were wrong and harmful. No
body had to start us on sex
talk we did plenty of it
without a responsible adult
to guide us.
The result of all this was
that I was plunged into some
very bad , experiences. My
fears and , ignorance trapped
me. I sure wouldn't want my
children to go through the
same thing.
I feel that my children are
being exposed to real , knowl
edge, in a. wholesome atmo
sphere. They are hot ashamed
or afraid to ask : questions.
They wil' be ready.for mar
riage a In four or five years.
Why. not prepare them? .
-. ,
The Council: We think too
many generalizations are
being made in this area of
sex education. . '
Many children brought up
the "old-fashioned'' way ac
tually received good sex edu
cations because they were
brought up in happy, loving
homes. This doesn't mean
they never had a fear, guilt or
misapprehension about any
thing. Most ' societies have
some restraints and repres
sions in this area, and fears
and misunderstandings will
arise as a result. .
On ;: the other hand, the
child deprived of close con
tact with nature, subjected to
severe taboos at home, wrong
ly informed on the streets, got
a mighty -poor education and
suffered as a result.
But "modern", sex educa
tion is- also, a loosely ..- used
term. If it is a question of
thruthfully' answering a
child's questions about the
facts of life, we are all for it.
Many good books; are avail
able today which can be help
ful to a parent in learning
how to handle the questions.
But the staging of public sex
sessions -is not .necessarily
either modern or education
al. And we think that ' sex
questionnaires, either for
adults or youngsters, are one
of the comedy-horrors of our
conformist age. What is the
point of determining "aver
age" behavior in one of the
few private, areas left to us?
We can't determine for
Betty whether or not her
children . are being overex
posed to sex education. Me
can only say that most edu
cators feel ' such education
should start in the home with
a tot's first questions. By the
time a youngster is a teen
ager, he should certainly
know about the origins of life
and how this pertains to his
own body. Ordinary biology
and physiology courses will
supply him with more de
tailed and exact data, without
any undue emphasis on sex
in itself.
Betty and Daniel should
also bear in mind that their
children's standards of be
havior will be based on many
factors - their general ad
justment to others, what they
observe among the adults
they look up to, what they are
told at home, church, school
and their outside ' reading
and impressions. If a happy
relationship exists between
them and their parents, the
standards instilled at home
will tend to prevail.
