Helen R. - If she knows where I am, she follows and makes scenes. Mrs. 0. R.-Isn't it the most natural question in the world . for a parent to ask a teen-age daughter where she's going on a Saturday night? Y o wouldn't think so the way our young lady resents our asking, and hems and haws, until we wind up having a scene at the door. " I know I never go any where without making sure someone knows where I am . Helen should offer the infor mation herself, without wait- ing for me to ask. Suppose something happens and I must reach her. I think It s a tent. ble thing for a mother to have " to say, "I don't know" if some- "one asks where her child is. I 'insist, and I always will, on a - direct answer from Helen. ' Helen R. - My mother goes -too far. She acts as though l in . 6, not 16. She not only wants .to know where I'm going, but ' exactly when 111 be back what I'm doing, who else will be there, and a regular third' .degree examination before 1 can get past the door. She knows I'm with my two girl friends and we re going to a birthday party three blocks away. But she 11 embarrass me in front of the others with all her questions. Even worse, she's apt to turn up at the place around 11:30 and tell me it's time to start for home. I swear I'll give her tlie wrong address or just not tell her anything if she ever tries that again. The Council: These ladies, mother and daughter, are in a "bind." Each wants to do the right thing, but goes about it the wrong way. "Where are your wandering daughters tonight?" has been the wake-up title of a movie, a play, and magazine articles on juvenile delinquency. Mrs. R. doesn't want to be caught without the right answer. So she bullies Helen with more than the Where. She wants precise data on Arrival and Departure Time, plus minute- b y-m i n u t e countdowns on what's planned. These are areas which Helen can't fill in ahead of time, and which, in the interests of a good time. it's more fun to work out as the evening progresses. Helen, on the other hand, glad to have conscientious parents who care about what happens to her, despite her groans and complaints about the question period. But she craves evidence of trust in her good sense, and Tespect for her feelings in front of her contemporaries. How then, can each meet me aemanas tor respect as well as peace of mind? Mrs R. must find a middle ground between supervising Helen and giving her some freedom to use her judgment. It's good mat tnis mother keeps a close watch on her daughter, but it needn't be an imprisoning one. As long as Helen has her permission to attend a social gathering and a reasonable curfew is agreed upon. Drob- ing should be kept to a mini mum. The goal must clearly be Helen's safety. The "inquisi tion must never look like mere show of power on Mrs. R.'s part, and a confound-the enemy tactic on Helen's. In fact, with each demonstration that the young girl behaves maturely, her mother must re member to address her on more adult terms. It would ease tensions in this home for Helen to realize that her mother's worried. nagging remarks must be translated. All they mean is, we love you. We can't help thinking of the dangers out side. We try to reduce them for you." Hi- VI) ,1 . v IV . J APPOINTEES TESTIFY - Two Administration appointees are shown as they appeared before the Senate Foreign Rela tions Committee. Christian A.

Evans said that U.S. lum- 'bcr producers are gradually losing their markets to Cana dian firms, because a load of lumber that costs a U.S. firm $71 to produce and deliver to the cast can be purchased from a Canadian firm for -between $62 and $65. The speaker urge repeal of the Jones act, which he said requires U.S. lumber firms to use American ships for sending their product by sea. By using less expensive foreign vessels' services, ' American lumber firms could compete with Canadian firms more effectively, he felt. Would Hurt Industry Evans admitted that repeal of the Jones act would prob- ably hurt the American' mari .time Industry. But he stated .that the lumber industry af fects mote employee . than does the maritime industry. "The lumber Industry Is im portant to Oregon," Evans added, "as every fifth tree in the United btalcs grows ' here. ' Evans also urged that the -reciprocal trade agreement be tween the United States and Canada be made more recipro cal by boosting U.S. tariffs on imports from Canada. Asked if such a move would nut jeopardize other Indus tries that export large num bers of goods to Canada, Evans said he realized ' was looking at the situation strict ly from the lumber i.idiiFtry's point of view, but added, "Something has to be done." "We don't want federal sub sidies," lie said, "we just want . a fair and even chance to , compete with our friends to the north." rami? LAST TWO DAY FRIDAY- and S to SME! ATURDAY 14 N.
