The committee studied the prob lem for about two years, and recommendations were made lo Got. Mark O. Hat field and the White House conference.) By ANN SULLIVAN A child guidance clince at t Eastern Oregon State hospital i and a stepped up program of ; school social workers are def inite needs in this state s con cern for the mental health of its children, according to the 1960 report of the Gov ernor's Committee on Chil dren and Youth. Noting with pride that there have been many im provements in the last decade in this state in the attitudes toward the problems of men tal health, the committee had much praise for the efforts of communities who seem al ready to be 'moving success fully toward recognition of their own responsibilities to their children in this field. The report on mental health is part of the overall health report. The committee praised the fact that since 1953, eight local health departments have developed mental health pro grams for children in con junction with their total health programs. In an ear lier article on the health sec tion the committee people had urged expansion of public health departments to all counties, at present handicap ped with lack .of legislative provision for funds. Recommends Facility Specifically, the report rec ommends an out-patient child guidance facility for diagnos tic and treatment service to be set up at the Eastern Ore gon State hospital. It also recommends a step ped up program of school so cial workers, professionally trained persons who help classroom teachers identify children who have difficul ties which affect learning and behavior and sort out those who need specialized help. The school social worker works with both parent and child to achieve this. A definite shift from the concept that only psychiatric- : ally trained persons can as- sist individuals, parents and children in improving their mental health was noted in the report. "Many professional workers with children and youth," the s 4 1 x. ::. x i$ w - j i AVAILABLE NOW IN YOUR GROCER'S REFRIGERATED CASE Now you can have all the thrilling "extras" of a meal at oxoonsivo restaurants . . . right at homel rfs all because Reser's have taken a famous chefs own rocoipo for a glamorous baked potato and hot vegetable topping.

Fire Recommendations Five specific recommenda tions of the mental health re port are amplified with some discussion: : 1. Since it has been increas ingly recognized that already trained personnel in Oregon can meet the needs of only a small number, of the emo tionally disturbed children, continuing . emphasis should be given to the training of persons who are now working with children and youth and who are not qualified as psy chologists, psychiatric social workers, or psychiatrists to improve their skills in coun seling. 2. School social work of the sort operating so success fully in many sections of the United States should be avail able to school districts throughout Oregon. To facil itate this, it is recommended that certification of school so cial workers be included un der the Handicapped Chil dren's law for those persons who hold a master's degree in social work from a school of social work accredited by the National Council on So cial Work Education. Moreover it is recommend ed that adequate consultation and funds be provided through the state department of education to implement school social work programs throughout the state. Starch Used to Strengthen Paper Washington - (Science Serv ice) -. Paper with increased wet strength has resulted from a new method of treating paper pulp with dialdehyde starch, made from corn, wheat or grain sorghum. Scientists of the U.S. De partment of Agriculture have found that dialdehyde starch at levels of 0.5 to 2.5 per cent in pulp produced papers with excellent wet strength and with better dry strength than that of untreated paper. Uses for wet strength pa per include paper toweling, toilet and facial tissues, out door posters, shipping sacks, grocery bags, frozen food wrappers, and photographic and filter papers. 5 X lit ' 3. It is recommended that the state system of higher education move with deliber ate speed to establish an ac credited graduate school of social work in Oregon. 4. Out-patient facilities for diagnosis and treatment of emotionally disturbed and mentally retarded children should be developed at the Eastern Oregon State hospi tal. Qualified personnel and adequate facilities are essen tial for the diagnostic serv ices, and for the care and treatment of emotionally dis turbed and mentally retarded children. 5. An immediate and thor ough study should be made in the area of mental health, particularly to define and de termine the problems of emo tional disturbance. The study should result in placing re sponsibility and in recom mending comprehensive solu tions rather than a piecemeal approach. Scientists Find Loops in Molecules Cambridge, Mass. - (Science Service) - Two scientists have identified hereditary muta tions as tiny loops in mole cules of DNA. The loop in the molecules could be the result of a mu tation or "error in copying" in the chemical process that i passes hereditary signals from cell to cell, Dr. Jacques R. Fresco, chemist at Harvard university, and his assistant, Bruce M. Alberts, explained in the Proceedings of the Na tional Academy of Sciences. A change as permanent in heredity as a mutation would probably show up as a tiny loop in the molecule of DNA, deoxyribonucleic acid. With the aid of plastic models, the Harvard scientists observed the possible changes in chemi cal architecture that accom pany certain types of heredi tary change. They found that changes occurring in mutation can produce loops. SSr v.-MEAD It's a TWIN LOAF!

MSGR. JOSEPH J. HOLLER AN Director of the Family Life Program, Catholic Archdiocese of Milwaukee Written for UPI Human nature has not changed essentially through the centuries. When Christ walked among men, He found the same drives and motives as we see today. There were the time servers, the oppor tunists, with a genius for turn ing people and circumstances to their own advantage. There were the followers who did no thinking for themselves, but "ran with the hare and howl ed with the hound." There were also men of integrity- who knew that, unless they could live with their own conscience, they could not live happily at all. To them, moral issues did not change to suit expediency and com fort. They would rather walk alone than stultify their intel- Men as Today ligence and compromise their conscience by taking the easy, the wrong and the popular way. Answer To Dreams To this latter type, Christ was the answer to all their dreams of the perfect man. They watched Him in His pub lic life, all the way to Cal vary, and they found no flaw. No debunker found material for a bitter attack. And He, in turn, needed no alibi, for He had nothing to hide. His supreme vindication was His public challenge to His ene mies: "Which of you can con vict Me of sin?" He was the same whether surrounded by an admiring crowd or hang ing, almost alone, on the cross. He did not need the trapping of greatness to enhance Him; He was regal in His own right. Today, when the prophets of weakness are undermining the moral fabric of society by telling people what they want to hear, rather than what is true, we need t return to the strong Christ who said, "I aTA the way. the truth and the life." Today, when there is a tendency among gien lo adapt their religfon to their life rather, than their life to their religion, we need the lesson of the law and the will of God expressed by Christ, "My meat is to do the will of Him who sent Me." Me Sasy Vay fronted We face the first Lent ef a new decade-196 May iftore men think in thair hearts what it means to follow Christ. With all His love and respect for people, Christ never promised an easy way to His followers. The way of integrity is not something that can be diluted to meet selfish specifications. Whether in per sonal life, family life or pub lic life, our lives mtst be built on principals that do not change. Only by living thus can we measure up fi integ rity to the perfect Christ; it is only by living thus that wj can merit the title of nobility conferred on the Sincere and the true; to "the satteof the earth." t
