Returned Voluntarily Mrs. Plumlee sobbed as she left the small women's sec tion of the prison Monday. "This has been my home," she e?:d. "In a way I would like to (lie here." She had one chance at free dom In 1951, but after' the years in prison, complications of living outside the walls confused her and she return ed voluntarily in 1953. Since then, she has refused parole consideration a number of times. " Because of her age and leeble condition requiring in stitutional care, the State Board of Prison Terms and Paroles placed her in a Se attle nursing home. She has no relatives. Prison officials said her few visitors had been from church groups.

Each article 1. a summary of an actual caie history Tha Council reporta on problem, thas have been dealt with by reipon.lbla agencies and counselor.. Gertrude Y.-Her Job with Craig Is over. It's my turn now. Mrs. C. Y.-She doesn't see that there's room for both ol us. e Gertrude Y.-My mother-in- law is a widow. Craig is her only child. She seems to have no idea of retiring gracefully from our lives. And since she hasn't taken my hints, I'm telling her the facts of life In plain English until she catches on. Craig's health is now in my hands. She doesn't have to tell me not to fry his chops, but to broil them. And Craig Jr. is my little boy, and I don't want him taught baby talk. She thinks it's cute. I think It's ridiculous. She had her chance at being a wife and mother. Now It s mine. Why does she keep horning In? I know my Insistence on be ing left alone has poor Craig on the spot. But Mother Y. could smooth things out easily by moving away or finding a few other people's lives to butt Into. Mrs. C. Y.-I have always been so aware of the pitfalls of being a mother-in-law to an nnlv snn'jt wlfn Ihnt T trtnri extra hard to please Gertrude. All I want Is her goodwill and friendship. But she seems to be anti parent. I think that to her I'm not Just Craig's mother, T'm a svmbol of all mothers. She hated her own mother, I ve learned, and sne nas a -chip on her shoulder against mothers In general. So it's hard to come close to her. At the same time, my son is still my son and his child Is my only grandchild. What does Gcriruae expect me 10 do-go to Borneo and never come back? I don't feel possessive about Craig, Just interested and ma ternal. This running battle up sets him, I know, especially since It's all one-sided. He tells me not to feel hurt, and that Gertrude will appreciate me when she becomes a mother-in-law! That's too long to wait, Someone ought to be able to convince her that mothers have a real place In the life of their married children, and that they are usually a com fort and a blessing, not a menace. i The Council! We might ask, "Where's Craig in all this?" If the answer weren't so clear. At- his wit's end, of course, wondering what he can do to reassure the two women he loves. rm tnrlc ha mlaht hammer home to Gertrude Is that his love for his mother In no way threatens his love for her. It's a completely different species. And there's enough love to go , nrnnnrl Oprtnlrip lS 1 fearful. Insecure girl who has no real understanding of the nature ot love and its many aspbets. Evidently Gertrude has had so little experience with par ental love that It frightens her. At the same time she is learn ing how to be a mother she must learn now to nave a mother. It's too bad she must practice on her mother-in-law who, up to now, ns uccn serving both as piano and piano teacher, so to speak. A loving wife or mother, as King Solomon proved, will not subject the lovea one iu p! ultimatums. She will ad- Just her demands to make Ufa easier for the man in me mm p'a "solution" IS unnatural and unfeeling. It in- dicates her need for enngni. enment by a family counselor. T.sarnlnff how to accept Craig's mother will help her more than banishing tne oia er woman! Mpnnwhlln. the older Mrs. Y. must also be the "bigger" Mrs. Y. Gertrude Is scared nnt mlvpH lln and until she straightens herself out in the roles of woman, wile ana mnther she won't be able to do justice to that of daughter- in-law. So Mrs. x, can expect; to be slapped down now and then, during the learning pe riod ahead. Rut Gertrude will learn. An added prod will be the grow ing awareness of her young son who Is "drinking In" this example of how a man s wne treats his mother and vice versa. Above all, she win learn that true love Is like nasturtiums-pick one and two grow. (Copyright I960, , General Features Corp.)
