B THURSDAY. AUGUST 8. 1963 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON Third of Married Women Employed At Outside Jobs cenl to think of her earning CorvallU-One out of every tnree married women in Ore. gon it working at a full or part time Job and more are probably going to be spending a longer part of their lives at a Job in yean ahead. Mrs. Roberta Frasier, Ore gon State university family life specialist, reports some trends in number of women working and offers some con siderations to wage earners who must find help in caring for children About a fifth of the married women working are mothers who have children under years of age, says Mrs. Fra-zier. If Mom works, what's the effect on children in the fam ily? Generally, studies show that the attitude the mother has toward her children will show regardless of whether she's at home taking care of them or working at another job. If she's sincerely inter ested in the youngsters' devel opment, she'll try to provide the kind of care that will en courage their best growth and development, Some studies show that mothers who want to work but out of a feeling of duty to their children do not work, create problems for them selves. They may unconscious ly resent their children and have some problem in child rearing. Husband's Rol What should be the hus band's role if his wife works? How much should he be ex pected to help with house work? A study made at Florida State university shows that husbands of working wives tend to be more liberal in viewpoint in r e g a r d to all women who work than do husbands whose wives don't have jobs. Husbands of work ing wives also were more agreeable to helping with most household tasks, and were more likely to favor equal pay status for women on the job. Husbands whose wives worked were more likely to be proud of their wife's abil ities outside the home, more democratic in recognizing her independence, but a little retl- Doctor Rescues Man Injured by East German Mine Helmstedt, Germany - (UPD A middle-aged West German doctor crawled into a Com munist border "death rone" minefield and dragged back to safety a fleeing criminal shattered by a mine blast, po lice said today. West German police said Dr. Ernst Stoeter, 56, moved 90 yards through barbed wire and land mine strips Wednes day to reach the wounded fugitive from West German justice. The 25-year-old fugitive had fled on foot from West Ger many Into East Germany with his 21-year-old wife and 4-year-old daughter to escape a year's prison term on a morals charge. But 30 yards into Communist territory - on the edge of the East German border anti-refugee strip - he stepped on a mine. The blast shattered his right leg and splinters blood ied his wife. His wife drag ged him under a bush, tear ing the blast would bring East German guards, and dashed back to the West with her daughter for help. Summoned from a nearby home for aged persons, Dr, Stoeter stood at the border's edge while the weeping young wife pointed across the barb ed wire to the bush under which her husband lay. The doctor removed his coat and crawled out. "I could not let the man bleed to death out there. A human life was at stake. am a doctor," Stoeter told newsmen later. Nashville Power Outage Explained Nashville, Tenn. (UPD Two radio stations and a tel evision station went off the air. Mntnristn t I a - saffCed through Intersections with useless tramc iignis. Elevators hung up between floors in office buildings. Restaurants had no boil ing water during their peak coffee-break period. Lights went out. It was ail nvpr In 12 min utes, but John Tipton, assist ant general manager of Nash ville Electric Service, was a long time explaining why ' to alarmed callers Wednes day. It seems, he said, that a Pigeon landed on a high volt age wire . at a sub-station which feeds electricity ' to downtown Nashville, causing "a short circuit of some mag nitude." As for the culprit, he said, "There's probably nothing but a few feathers left." more or taking over the tradi tional dominant male roles in the home. Children whose mothers worked tend to do more housework and take more re sponsibility around the home. If mother's objectives for working were shared and agreed upon as important by the husband and teen-age chil dren, she was likely to get more support from the family in holding down a job. Mrs. Frazicr says that one of the most important tasks for families is to find adequate child care if the mother works. A baby needs his first one or two years of life with his mother or a mother substi tute who can give him lots of love and a feeling of security. The younger the child, the more important the kind of care he receives. The stimula tion a baby gets in the first year of his life lays down the basis for his whole personality structure, she emphasizes. Evaluate Care She suggests that mothers look for qualities in a care taker that children need-acceptance, warmth, a home that a child can feci free in, and can learn to trust. Rela tives, as caretakers, should be evaluated on the kind of care they can provide. Regularity in care is important. When a youngster is shifted from place to place, he may learn not to depend on others. If he isn't able to enter into deep relationships as a child, it may affect his relationships with others as an adult. Before aranging for a baby sitter or group care, make a personal leisurely visit to the home where the child will be cared for, advises the OSU ex tension specialist. Try to de tect the feeling tone of the adult. Look at the setting. Does it have the kind of equipment that encourages children to grow? There's a limit to the num ber of children one adult can caro for and give children at tention they need. The ex periences a child has in his pre-school years are impor tant. Special provision also needs to be made for supervi sion of school-age youngsters. A total of 216,367 women were in the 1 a bor force in Oregon in 1960. Of these, 132,494 were married and liv ing with their husbands and 24,946 of them had children under age 6. Salvation Army Doughnut Girl Dies Portland -IUPD- Funeral ar rangements were pending to day for Mrs. Margaret Shel don Stufflebcam, 79, Portland, known as the "original" Sal vation Army doughnut girl in France in World War I. She died last Friday in Elgin, 111., while en route to visit relatives in the east. Mrs. Stufflebeam first joined the Salvation Army when she was 10 years old. She was widowed in 1944. Ker late husband served in World War I and had been in charge of Salvation Army Headquarters in Roseburg. Space Program Draws Praise From Senators Washington tUPD Chair man Clinten P. Anderson of the Senate Space committee said today the civilian space agency has taken a long step towards making the United States "pre-eminent in space." The New Mexico Democrat made the statement in a speech prepared for delivery as the Senate scheduled de bate on a $5,511,520,400 au thorization for the National Aeronautics and Space Ad ministration. Anderson said the agency has compiled an "enviable record." Another Democratic mem ber of the space committee, Sen. Stuart Symington (Mo.), also had praise for the space program and the way NASA proposes to conduct it in the year ahead. Symington, in a prepared speech, called the NASA budget "reasonable, justified and worthy of con gressional support." Blunt Aniwer Symington offered a blunt answer to critics who contend that the United States is con centrating too heavily on "a wild race to the moon." with questionable chance of win ning or acquiring anything from the effort. "They are wrong," said Sy mington, adding that such critics "misunderstand or mis represent" the goals of the balanced space program. Both Anderson and Syming ton in their prepared speeches listed successful space flights in the Mercury series and praised other features of the scientific space program. An derson reported that "the United States is in space to stay." South America's popula tion averages about 14.7 per sons per square mile. Join the hundreds T3&Tr f? n .
