Education Board
Planning To Ask
Pay Boos! Funds
Monmouth - IUPD - The State
Board of Higher Education
Monday tentatively resolved
to ask the 1961 legislature to
provide about $6 million to
increase salary scales in state
institltions.
The board decided to seek
. more than $2 million to pro
vide a seven per cent increase
for the 1961-62 school year
. to bring faculty pay up in
addition to a 3.B per cent nor
mal increase for faculty mem
bers who have not reached
the top scale.
Scale Ranki 13th
The board also decided to
request funds to provide an
other seven per cent pay boost
for the 1962-63 school year.
In a salary analyzation
which prompted the request,
the board said it found that
an Oregon State college and
University of Oregon uniform
pay scale ranked 13th in a
list of 20 comparable schools
In the nation.
The total increase for the
next two-year period would
' be $6,245,000 and for t h e
first year would be $2,251,
000. The current amount re
ceived by the academic staff
' this year is $20,848,000. -'
The board also learned
The Family Council
Editor's Note: The Family Council consists or a Judge, a psychia
trist, three clercymen, three editors and a women's editor. Each arUrie
is a summary of an actual case history. The Council reports on
problems that have been dealt with by responsible agencies and
counselors.
Barbara M. : - My parents
never ask about school.
Mrs. F. M.-School is up to
Barbara and her teacher.
. -
Barbara M.-I have all kinds
of problems in school. Last
week my official teacher
sent me to the guidance teach
er because I'm failing in So
cial Studies and Gym of all
things. I never have a clean
uniform. -
I hate my Social Studies
teacher. We're studying Japan.
When I brought an obi to
class-the sash for a Kimono
which my uncle brought when
he got out of the service-Miss
D. got sarcastic; She said,
"Don't think this is going to
raise your mark. You better
start doing some homework."
I do homework, but she gives
about 50 pages a day.
My girl friend's mother al-
Monday that enrollment at
state-supported colleges reach
ed 25,181 as of last Friday.
This was 2.4 per cent higher
than estimated.
A spokesman said the in
crease in the proportion of
high school graduates who go
to college probably would in
crease the number of fresh
men at state schools next year
by as much as 7.8 per cent.
WHAT WILL YOUR RETIREMENT
YEARS BE LIKE?
Consider these facts about stocks
and bonds as you plan for your future
Sound investments can provide you with an income
, that will continue after your retirement.
Knowing this, many people start to buy stocks or
bonds early in their lives. They are planning their
futures, building up their holdings. In many cases they
re-invest their dividends and interest while they still
' have income from their jobs.
Ad Ircome frotn Couiiimmi Stocfc
Unlike many other types of investment, good common
stock can provide a growing income as the years roll
on. Many of America's 12 million sbareowners have
discovered that both their dividends and the value of
' their holdings have grown with the expanding economy
of the nation. And as the country continues to grow,
to will many busmeases.
Bask Roles
Wot all investments are good ones, however, and as ,
you plan for your own future, it's a good idea to recog
nize that there are risks. Some companies will not
grow; some will be unable to pay dividends or interest.
. It's wise, therefore, to follow these bask rules:
L Invest onry money not needed for regular living ex
penses and emergencies. ,
2. Get information about a eocnpany before you invest
m it. Don't rery on tips.
S. Go to a Member Firm of the New York Stock St
ehange for in vesting advice.
At any of the Exchange's more than 2,900 Member
Firm offices, you can get friendly, wett-qoalifted help.
Anyone is welcome to it, free. The only charge is a
small commission when you buy or seQ securities.
Another Service .
' Among the many services at a Member Firm office k
the Monthly Investment Plan. This plan enables you
to acquire stock in almost all companies listed on the
New York Stock Exchange for as little as $40 every
three months.

ways asks her what's new
in school, what's on her mind,
what book she's reading. My
father and mother aren't the
least bit interested in how I
feel, what's going on in school,
whether I'm happy or un
happy. ...
Mn. F. M.-Barbara is 12
years old. When I was 12 I
had six younger brothers and
sisters to help with. Barbara
has only herself to look after,
and you'd think she could at
least wash and iron a simple
gym suit!
My husband and I go to
business. We have plenty of
headaches, believe me. And
we have no one to go crying
to. If Barbara has trouble in
school, she has all those teach
ers there to help her. That's
what she's entitled to. That's
what we pay taxes for.
Of course we love Barbara
and want her to be happy. But
she's a big girl. We try not
to bother her with our trou
ble, but she ought to be able
to handle her own ups and
downs-between her and her
teachers.
She has a nice home, pretty
clothes and a generous allow
ance. What more does she
want? If she's not satisfied
with her parents, she's plain
ungrateful.
The Council: The age of 12
is indeed a tender one for
facing alone the pressures that
come with early adolescence.
Mrs. M. and her husband are
abdicating far too soon.
It s surprising that Mrs: M
whose own adolescence was
heavily burdened with
adult - level responsibilities,
should have so little sensi
tivity for the anguish her
daughter is going through.
Perhaps the mother's finer
feelings are dulled and she
is content merely with pro
viding Barbara with more of
the externals" than she her
self had, with no concern
about the inner turmoil that
besets a young girl on the
threshold of her teens.
All sorts of self-doubt may
assail a child at this time and
she needs endless bolstering
of confidence. She wonders:
Are my body changes normal?
Will I be attractive? Do my
friends really like me? She is
bursting for talk, craving
sympathetic ear, especially
from her mother. Yet,1 emo
tionally, she is orphaned. And
she has sunk into a what's-
the-use apathy.
A teacher can take up
where a mother leaves off,
But she cannot take over a
mother's whole jobi Nor a
father s. And Mrs. M. is ex
pecting too much of both
the school and Barbara. The
division of labor is not so
clear-cut as she's like to think.
Barbara's wholesome devel
opment is still very much in
her mother s hands.
It has been shown in studies
of the mentally ill that the
one factor which often pushes
one persons over the brink
while another, of similar back
ground, can stand pat is the
amount of good mothering
available. Nothing gives a
child as much strength to face
life's stresses as the solicitude
of a warm and intelligent
mother.
A. turnabout is in order for
Mrs. M. Barbara's problems
are 100 per cent her nrob
lems, too. Actually, they are
family problems and take
their place alongside the ones
she and her husband have.
Together, splitting the "head
aches" three ways, this family
can reduce the present ten
sions among them. Ending her
departmentalized concept of
duty, Mrs. M. must become
a full-time mother, - rather
than a subcontractor.

Dr. Alvarei
Varicose Veins
Dr. F. W. Cooper Jr., of the
Department of Surgery in Em
ory university, Atlanta, re
cently wrote
that many
persons who
have had their
varicose veins
operated o n
are not entire
ly s a t i sfied.
Some women,
per haps, ex
p e c t ed too
much, espe
cially in the way of getting
rid of the little "spider veins"
which form within the skin
of the thighs. Dr. Cooper says
that treatment of such spiders
is not satisfactory. If one tries
to plug them up by injecting
some substance, the inflam
matory reaction is likely to
produce a darkening of the
skin in the area involved. The
woman may lose the spider,
but she may dislike the
brownish discoloration which
remains. Also, after a year or
so, little veins can recur.
Dr. Cooper says that in over
80 per cent of the patients
with large worm-like veins
under the skin, there is a fam
ily history of a similar dis
ease.- rne paucm a
may have had such veins.
They usually begin to enlarge
after the age ol 30. uuen mey

nancy, or during a period of
rapid gain in weight, or when
the person has to stand all
day I behind a counter.
Dr. Cooper says that in most
cases the veins do not pro-
Books of Dayton
Founder Discovered
Dayton. Ore. -HOT- A large
cache of old books which once
were the property of General
Joel Palmer, founder of Day
ton, has been discovered on
the upper floor of an old
house here.
The books were found by
State Sen. Carl Francis, a
member of the board of direc
tors of .the General Joel
Palmer Foundation.
The house, still owned by
the descendants of Palmer, is
unoccupied.
Francis said he found many
of the books contained Palm
er's handwriting on the fly
leafs. Included were proceed
ings of the Indiana state con
vention of 1851.
Palmer was superintendent
of Indian Affairs in Oregon
Territory from 1853 to 1859.
He came to Oregon by wagon
train in 1846.
duce any very disturbing
symptoms. They may seem to
produce some feelings of heav
iness and fullness, but com
monly the woman wants them
removed because they look
ugly. The large veins do not
often cause much swelling of
the lower let; or the ankle
Marked swelling of the ankles
is usually due to another dis
ease, called lymphedema, in
which the veins are not en
larged, and in which it is use
less to remove them.
Skin Becomes Brown
In a few cases in which
large varicose veins cause an
impairment in the circulation
of the leg, the skin on the
inner side just above the an
kle, becomes browner and
browner, until eventually it
may ulcerate. If it ulcerates,
the veins may have to be
treated, and then the ulcer
may have to be skin-grafted.
As I have said here before,
the best operation today for
large varicose veins is what
is called stripping.' In this op
eration, a number of , small
incisions are made in the skin
of the leg over the big vein,
and then it is pulled out
through the little holes.
State Library
Branches To Be
Sought in Law ,
Salem - IUPD - State Librar
ian Eloise Ebcrt said Monday
she will ask for enabling leg
islation in the 1961 legisla
ture to permit the state li
brary to establish branches in
the state.
The state library, located in
the Capitol Mall, now has no
such authority.
She said she is seeking
other legislation to liberalize
Oregon's library law. The
law as it stands is hampering
Oregon's participation in the
federal-stale library develop
ment program for rural areas,
she said.
New Projects Difficult
A recent attorney general's
opinion said that the slate li
brary has no power to con
tract or lease property and
Miss Ebert said il has "been
difficult if not impossible to
develop new projects in 1960
61."
The state library has pro
posed a "demonstration cen
ter" as an experiment in
Eastern Oregon. The proposed
center would be located in La
Grande and would serve Un
ion, Wallowa and Baker coun
ties. - - - .
Miss Ebert said the propo
sal will be put to the commun
ities involved about Nov. 1.
