Mother should leave him. Mm. R. T. He's not a bad sort at heart. Jan M I am 20 and a junior at college. My problem 1'iv.lves my mother, who iiarrled for the second time two years ago after having been a widow for five years. My stepfather is an un couth man with a vile temper I coudn't live under his roof for a day and was glad to be able to go off to college when my mother married him. Now I can hardly bear to come home on visits because I can't stand the way he talks to my mother. I have begged Mother to leave him, but I can't con vlnce her this would be the best thing. My older brother can help contribute to Mom s support and I'll be working soon, too, ao she doesn't real ly have to worry about money. Mrs. R. T. The main thing that bothers me is that I don't want to be a burden on my children. My son has a young family and plenty of responsi bilities ahead of him. Jane will, I hope, marry in a year or two and I don't want, her husband to feel he has to un dertake the support of a moth' er. I know some women of my age go to work, but I haven't had a Job in nearly 30 yars and I don't feel that I could go back to an office. It seems that I must put up and shut up. My husband is not a bad sort at heart. It's just that he has a bad temper, When he is in a good humor he can be very nice and charming. He is also generous with me and Jane In spite o: her coldness toward him. Seventh Fleet Takes No Chance During Ike's Visit to Formosa By ALBERT E. KAFF Taipei, Formosa -WPH-Presi-dent Eisenhower is expected to get the warmest welcome of his Asia trip on Formosa Band Booster to Make Up Deficit Ashland-The Ashland Band Boosters have announced plans for a fund-raising proj ect at the area Oregon Food stores Saturday, June 18, to offset the deficits in the amount of the pledges submit ted to send the Ashland High school band to the Portland Rose parade last week. A total of about $100 was needed to balance the budget, the Boosters added. Between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. Saturday, Ashland band mem bers and the Boosters will sell "jet-pups," coffee, pepsi-cola, cotton candy, and other snacks. All of the food has been do nated by the distributors and manufacturers of the prod ucts. . Also reported by the Ash land group was the winning of "honorable mention" by the band in the schools, com munity clubs and fraternal organlaztlons division. Sever al different groups competed for prizes in the division. First and second awards in the category were taken by the Carver Economic and Sci- e n c e association and the American Chinese associa tion, respectively. but many here believe Com munist China may try to spoil the party. Eisenhower arrives June 18 for a 24-hour visit with Presi dent Chiang Kai-shek and all should be goodwill since there are no serious differences be tween the two governments. But Communist China is Just 110 miles away. The Pel ping government already has been kicking up the placid waters of the Formosa Straits with new artillery bombard ments of Quemoy and Matsu, the Nationalist-held islands just off the coast of the main land. When then Secretary of State John Foster Dulles vis ited Formosa two years ago the Reds cut loose with an 11,-000-round barrage to show their displeasure. ' The Communists hate Ei senhower even more than Dulles. Peiplng Radio has been blasting both him and the U.S. - Japanese defense treaty. Some of the language has been rough: One broad cast called Eisenhower a mur derous butcher. Tak No Chances The U.S. 7th fleet is taking no chances. It has put on a special alert for the Eisen hower visit and so have the American and Chinese air forces on Formosa. Air and sea patrols were ordered in creased during the visit of Eisenhower who arrives on board the cruiser U.S.S. St. Paul from Manila. Most military observers doubted the Red Chinese actu ally would attack the offshore islands but now they are pre pared for anything. The United States is bound by treaty to defend Formosa and the Pescadores from Com munist attack but has never made a formal commitment to defend Quemoy and Matsu. Little Strategic Value American strategists say the islands have little strate gic military value. But to give them up would be a terrible blow to the morale of free China and to America's allies in the Far East. Chiang might seek a stronger defense com mitment on these from Elsenhower. Eisenhower will fly ashore by helicopter from the St. Paul, flagship of the U.S. 7th fleet, lunch in private, meet with Chiang and then address a mass rally in downtown Tai pei. In the evening he will at tend a state dinner given by Chiang. The next day is Sunday and Eisenhower is expected to at tend church with the general issimo and his wife, both protestants, and then fly to Okinawa. Last Met in 1946 The meeting between Eisen hower and Chiang is the first since 1946 when Eisenhower stopped off in Nanking on mainland China while Gen. George C. Marshall was try ing t6 end the Chinese civil war. The talks will be brief because of the lack of out standing issues. Taipei is the capital of For mosa but Nanking still re mains the legal capital of the Nationalist government and Taipei is only the provisional capital. Another Epic Marked Naming Taipei the provis ional capital of Nationalist China marked another epic in a history which began in 2205 B.C. when the first Chinese monarchy was established. China became a republic in 1912 when Sun Yat-sen over threw the Manchu dynasty. Chiang Kai-shek united the country in 1927 Lj jeieating the various warlords. He ran China until the Communists overran the mainland. Chiang arrived on Formosa on Dec. 8, 1949. The armed forces of the Nationalists are estimated at 500,000 men, many of them, aging soldiers. The National ists have a modern but small navy and an air force which has defeated the Reds in air battles over the straits. There also are American missile! bases on Formosa and air craft. :v-X c .x.v . .. .1 'S CQoRE AMERICANS APE INJURED EACH YEAR IN AUTO ACCIDENTS THAN IN BOTH WORLD WARS AND KOREA COMBINED It's a fact: 774,230 American servicemen Injured In the last two wars.

Send now! Only 25c The Council: Jnne is talk ing out of turn in advising her mother to break up her marriage. She seems to be offering her brother and herself substitutes for a husband. Bu they would be poor substi tutes indeed! Jane sees herself as a hero ine, protesting and supporting her mother. But her noble sentiments have yet to be put to the test. She might find them wearing thin when mon ey is scarce and her responsi bilities are heavy. Money, however, may be the smallest part of the prob lem. Mrs. R.T.'s husband of fers her loyalty, tenderness and the companionship of a person of her age. These are no trifling benefits and they cannot be fully supplied by children with the best inten tions. We doubt very much that Mrs. R. T. is as unhappy with the bargain she has made as her daughter seems to think. For Jane, her stepfather is an outsider who has walked into her home and started abusing her mother. But he's not an outsider to her mother. Mrs. R. T. is deeply Involved in an emo tional relationship with her husband. Like all relation ships It has good and bad elements and Jane should rec ognize that the good doesn't always reveal Itself as readily as me bad. The fact that Jane feels free to speak up so strongly on this subject suggests to us that Mrs. R. T. may have complained to her or turned to her for comfort in moments of stress. This was a mistake. Mrs. R. T. should be aware that her unhapplncss Is ex tremely painful to her daugh ter, yet she can do nothing to help her. Mrs. R. T. appears to be a passive sort of person who seeks protection from others. She might do herself a lot of good by going out and getting that Job and proving to her self that she can function well and Independently. But there Is no reason for her to break up her marriage as long as she finds her husband basical ly kind and congenial. (Copyright 1960, General Feetur Corp.)
