FAMILY COUNCIL Editors note: The Fainllr Conn ell coniliU of a Judge, a psyrhlt. trlil, three clergymen, three editors and a women'! editor. Each article is a luminary of a family disagree ment presented to the Council. The Council deals with problems, ma)or . and minor, encountered by Kuld ance counselors and social workers. Edited by Mrs. Al.na Dennv. (Copy fight by General Features Corp.) Charlotte H. - For weeks he's been saying "Ella" in his sleep. Gordon H. - How can I be held responsible for what I jay while asleep? Charlotte H. - I'm 26, con sidered beautiful, and hold a responsible job in a textile firm. I've been married three years. My husband is a dress buyer. We're completely com patible and in love with each other at least I am. Lately I'm not so sure about him, be cause in the past few weeks he's been mentioning an "El la" in his sleep. He talks quite distinctly when he dreams, and since my name is Charlotte, I'm mystified. In the morning when I ask him "Who's Ella?" he says "I don't know what you're talk ing about." Either he's a good actor or he leads an exciting dream life I know nothing about. But he still ought to be able to give me a better explanation. '. Gordon H. - I didnt even know that I talk in my sleep, much less what I talk about. For all I know, Charlotte makes speeches out of dream land, too, but I'm a deep sleep er and I have no proof. May be we should wire our bed room for sound so I'll have a playback the next morning and be able to translate that Ella business for Charlotte. Maybe it's a name I read In a book, although I don't re call anything closer to it than Cinderella. We have no em ployees named Ella in the plant. None of our friends is Ella. And Charlotte knows I have no time for an Ella. I jneet her for lunch, which means we have our three meals together, plus our eve nings. So, her suspicions make no sense. The Council - Oh, come off it, Charlotte. You're sure scraping the barrel looking for trouble. You insist on mak ing Gordon a most unhappy fella over "Ella." A confident, light - hearted wife would think of a half a dozen pos sible interpretations of the sound, all innocent, and would turn over peacefully to fin ish her night's slumber. Ex ample: Maybe he's yelling "Ella-vator" during a night mare in which he keeps miss ing it on his business calls. Example: He's calling for van Ella ice cream? . . . If that's the only reason .for your distrust, you must look within yourself to learn why you feel so insecure and what you're afraid of. And, at the same time, Gordon, you would do well to pay a little snore flattering attention to Charlotte in the plentiful hours in which you are to gether. Evidently she's a girl for whom a flood of compli ments comprised her daily fare. With her beauty and brains, she must have moved among ego-bolstering excla mations during most of her pre-marital life. So, look up from your paper more often. Some domestic buttering-up is in order. When a marriage has been moving along normally, a wife can sense any serious rift in the lute. She doesn't need sleep talk as her clue. In fact, a wise wife discounts this unconscious babble. Ei ther Charlotte trusts Gordon, or she doesn't. If she doesn't . and she indicates no real reason not to all that's left for tracking down "Ella's"' identity is a lie detector ap plied to Gordon. But' there wouldn't be much left to their love and marriage after such an extreme tactic, either. So our advice is for Charlotte to think up a few more "light" explanations, similar to those we invented above, for the nocturnal presence of Ella. (Might be a nice name for their first daughter.) Bachelors, however, might take a tip from a prominent physician who boasts: "My wife's name in Jane, my nurse's name is Jane, my sec retary's name is Jane. So, if J talk in my sleep, I'm safe." Thompson Appointed Ambassador at Large Newport, R. I. - (ITU - Presi dent Kennedy announced Sat urday he will nominate Llewelyn Thompson, former U. S. Ambassador to the Soviet Union, as ambassador at large with special duties as an adviser on Russia. Thompson, who was suc ceeded in Moscow recently by Ambassador Foy Kohler. will be ranking adviser to Secre tary of State Dean Rusk in his new assignment, the White House said.
