Fred F.-My kids must come first. Jane F.-I am 26 and have been married for the past year to a divorced man. My problem is that I sometimes wonder whether divorce is just a technicality with Fred. Fred's ex-wife calls him up nearly every night to discuss some problem involving the children. Half the time it is necessary for him to go over there to help her out with the kids or dig her out of some financial confusion she has fallen into. That is the excuse given, but I wonder whether there isn't more to it than that. To put it bluntly, I won der whether I am just one member of my husband's har em. Another thing that gets my goat is that his family re mains friendly with the first Mrs. F. At all big family gath erings, there she is with the kids and I am embarrassed. dumber off American Job Seekers to Jump by 13,500,00(0) in Next Decade Fred F. I told Jane before we married that my kids have to come first, always. If they need me, I have no choice but to fulfill my responsibilities to them. If this means help ing my ex-wife out of some difficulty, there is also no choice in the matter. The fact is that my ex-wife just doesn't know much about home management. She left everything to me. She would have done the same with the man she was going to marry, only that romance blew up just after we got our divorce. Now the poor kid is at a loss. As for Jane s suspicions, all I can say is she's way off base. She should realize that peo ple have ties after ten years of living together and they aren't broken in a day. My family is also attached to my ex-wife. The Council: It's certainly hard to tell where Fred s re sponsibilities begin and end in this peculiar divorce and re-marriage. When people do take the drastic step of divorce, we usually assume it is because they had been totally unable to form ties of affection and consideration for one another. We assume that the children have not been the uppermost consideration in the break-up. We assume that the breach between husband and wife has become so enormous that each is the last person the other would turn .to in time of stress. But it is clear that the prob lem in this case is that Fred and his ex-wife have strong emotional bonds. The divorce was evidently one of those tragic, hasty ones that could and should have been averted. We are willing to take his de nial of intimate relations with his former wife at face value, but he should be aware that he has been emotionally un faithful to his -present wife when he has tried to operate as head of another household. This is a dreadful situation and we won't presume to point the way out of it. The one thing we are certain about is that Fred must come to a decision about which home he belongs to. He should be aware that divorce must hurt children and there is no way around it. His children have already boan hurt, de spite his best efforts. He must accept the fact that he can't go on being father to them in the old way, and at the same time give full loyalty to his new wife and the family that will probably come. Once Fred has made his de cision, it is up to him to ex plain things to his family. If his second marriage holds up, neither Jane nor her prede cessor should be put through the trial of facing one another at family parties. The family can keep up the friendship with Number One without bringing the two women to gether. (Copyright 1960, General Features Corp.) LODGE IN PARIS laris -(CPD Henry Cabot Lo.ee, U.

Home Offices: Bloomington, Illinois 10-year increase in U.S. his tory, Secretary of Labor James P. Mitchell said in an nouncing the forecast. He said the economy should be producing goods and serv ices valued at $750 billion at the end of the "golden sixties" to provide jobs for nearly all of the new job seekers. Challenge lo Industry But Mitchell said the man power study should be a chal lenge to American industry, labor unions and government at all levels because of "start ling" changes foreseen. The nation must improve the education and training of all workers to prepare them for jobs requiring more skill and learning in the next decade, the secretary said. Employers also must end racia' and age discrimination in hiring to meet the man power dilemma of 1970, he added. Labor department experts painted this picture, assum ing no war or depression, and continued technilogical ad vance: -Many more young work ers will be in the labor force -about 6,400,000 more than the 13,800,000 total estimated for 1960. -A steady influx of women workers-six million more in the next 10 years-so that by 1970 one out of every three wage - earners will be a woman. -More older workers-about 5,500,000 more over 45 by 1970. Blue-collar Decline Mitchell also predicted a continuing decline in the number of blue-collar produc tion workers and a steady in crease in the number of em ployees in service jobs-store clerks, bank clerks, govern ment workers, etc. The department forecast a dramatic surge in the number of professional and technical workers over the next decade -aii increase of 40 per cent, or 3,3.00,000. - In contrast, . the number of "dnskilled work ers will remain unchanged, despite the expanding labor force, and farm workers will actually decline. Mitchell said the study fore shadowed tough sledding for labor unions if they are to keep their position in rela tion to unorganized workers. "One of their biggest and most challenging jobs will be more strenuous and greater organizational activity than they have shown in the last 10 years," the secretary said. The projection also indi cated the number of workers in the prime age group-35 to 44-will shrink by 200,000 to 16,400,000 by 1970. This decline, attributed to low birth rates during the de pression 30s, will mean a shortage of employees in the age bracket from which exec utives and foremen are most often chosen. There are some encourag ing prospects, too. By 1970, seven out of 10 new job-seekers will be high school grad uates, compared with six to day. . High school enrollment will rise by nearly 50 per cent and colleges will admit 70 per cent more students. Even so, 7V million youngsters entering the labor market will not have a high school diploma and 2Vi mil lion of these won't even have a grade school education. This points up the need, Mitchell said, to encourage boys and girls to stay in school and discourage drop outs. The studies also showed that 16 million part-time jobs will be sought in 1970 mainly by students and house wives. This js a 30 per cent jump over the present figure. In summing up the signi ficance of the forecast, Mit chell said: "These changes will require a major overhaul in the em ployment , policies of many businesses. "Employers who do not abandon policies against hir ing workers because of their age, ' or. sex, or race, religion, or nationality1.-"'."" .
