The Family Council
Editor's Note: The Family Council consists of Judge, m psychiatrist,
three clergymen, a. newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writers.
Each article is a summary of an actual rase history. The Council reports
on problems that have been dealt wlta by responsible agencies and
counselors.
Alice J. - My parents are
bigots.
Mrs. F.J. - We only want
them to marry within their
faith.
Alice J. - I am 19 and a
freshman at college. I am
rooming with the most mar
velous girl at school. We have
more fun together than either
of us has ever had.
This girl, Edna, happens to
be of a different religion from
mine. I brought her home
with me a couple of week
ends and my family loved her
too. But when my brother
started dating her, a storm
broke.
My brother says he isn't
ready to get married and he
can't afford to let himself get
serious about Edna, but my
parents are in an uproar. They
don't want either of us to date
outside of our faith and my
mother says she doesn't want
me associating closely even
with girls outside my religion.
If that isn't bigotry, I don't
know what is.
Mrs. F.J. - Neither I nor
my husband is a bigot. We
have nothing against people
of any other religion and feel
that there are good and bad
in all faiths. But we are op
posed to mixed marriages and
we feel that interfaith dating
leads to just that.
We expected to get our
children's cooperation in this
because we have made few de
mands on them. We didn't
force any more religion on
them than they seemed in
clined to want. However, we
always stressed the impor
tance of marrying within
one's own faith. We have
known several bad interfaith
marriages and don't want the
tragedy repeated.
The children say they won't
marry out of their faith, but
dating is different. We say
dating is preparation for mar
riage. The Council: This is a tricky
problem and we are most
sympathetic with the points of
view of both - parents and
children. It is true that dating
is preparation for marriage
and that interfaith dating
leads to many mixed mar
riages. On the other hand, we
can't blame open - hearted,
open-minded young people for
liking or wanting to get to
know and understand others
outside their group.
Our schools, which empha
size the ability to get along
with members of different
races and religions, give
youngsters lots of opportunity
to meet and socialize and it is
difficult for a warm, f riendly
person to draw an invisible
line about another and say
"We can go so far, but no
further."
The best answer we can
give is that the positive ele
ments in any young person's
background are far more im
portant than the negative ones
in establishing his attitudes.
If a youngster is brought up
with a good understanding of
the meaning of his own faith,
he will want to perpetuate it
in himself and his children.
If he is brought up within
a close - knit family group
where common values and in
terests are stressed, he will
want that kind of home for
himself. He will not want to
take the risk of linking his
future to someone brought up
with a very different outlook.
We think the F.J.'s are a
little late with their warnings
about interfaith marriage. If
they had brought up their
children with strong emphasis
upon their religion, they
could feel that at least the
youngsters would know what
they are risking when they
risk losing their religious
identity.
We don't think the -F.J.'s
should press their children
to give up their friends of
other religions, but should
urge them to participate more
in the activities sponsored by
their own group.

Teamsters Plan
Court Petition
Miami Beach - (DPD - The
Teamsters Union will petition
federal court to force court
appointed monitors to meet
with the union's executive
board, according to James
Hoffa.
Until such a meeting is
held, Hoffa said, the union
will refuse to obey orders
from the monitors who were
appointed to oversee opera
tion of the nation's biggest
union.
Hoffa, in a news conference
here, accused the monitors of
deliberately obstructing any
action which would end the
monitorship.
He said the monitors have
refused to meet with the
union to discuss an 18-point
program which the union says
would clear the way for an
end to the tenure of the monitors.

Boardman Range
Negotiations Said
To Be Proceeding
Portland - (UPD - Gov. Mark
Hatfield said Friday that ne
gotiations to make the Board
man bombing range in Mor
row county available as a site
for a "Space Age Industrial
Park" were proceeding with
the Navy and the executive
branch of the government.
Hatfield, in a release dis
tributed by the State Depart
ment of Planning and Devel
opment here, said Oregon was
negotiating to acquire the
96,000 -acre bombing range
through an exchange of state
lands. He said the exchange
being worked out through ad
ministrative procedures would
enable the Navy to meet its
operational needs elsewhere
while making the Boardman
site available for industrial
development.
The governor said a press
release by Sen. Richard Neu
berger (D-Ore.) "mistakenly
implies that the Navy is op
posing transfer of the bomb
ing range."
He said hearings before a
sub-committee of the House
Armed Services Committee,
referred to by Neuberger,
relate to transfer of the Board
man range from the Air Force
to the Navy and are not di
rectly involved in state acqui
sition of the land.
Hatfield said Rep. Walter
Norblad (R-Ore.), a senior
member of the House commit
tee, was making sure Oregon's
interests in the matter are
protected fully.
Hatfield recalled that ear
lier this year he wrote all
members of Oregon's Con
gressional delegation asking
their cooperation in returning
the Boardman range to pro
ductive use. He added that
members of the Department
of Planning and Development
conferred with all members
of the delegation to develop
the most workable and expe
ditious method of obtaining
release of the range.
The land exchange method
was decided upon as the best
procedure as a result of these
meetings, the governor said.
Hatfield added that "ill-advised
moves at this stage
could jeopardize the success
ful outcome of negotiations
and cost the state an oppor
tunity to move into the mis
sile age.',' ,
