' Odd bits of Jetsam from the nact iwn floAtlne around on the surface of my cerebrum while important topical matters-like remembering to put air in the spare tire sin immeaiawiy the bottom and stay there until the next flat. Just now, for Instance, my brain waves washed up an ar ticle I read vears ado in the Reader's' Digest about the vicis situdes of a poor but dishonest widow who was left with a large family to feed. She put a coffee can on the kitchen shelf and told the kids It contained money for a rainy day. To the children, the can became a security symbol and they would go hungry rather than let their mother open It. It was not until they had grown Arch Theatre BLY . AKroe Hitchcock's "PSYCHO" Sunday Monday up that they learned the old lady was lying to them. There ac tually was nothing in the can but coflce, which must have been ra ther stale by that time. Never theless, it had served Its purpose. Release Causes Recall t don't know why this little tale stuck in my memory box because it was one of the most forgettable magazine pieces I ever read. But I was somehow reminded of it this week as I was looking over a press release Issued by Rep. Car roll D. Kearns R-Pa.. Kearns announced that he was about to Introduce a resolution calling for the appointment of a mneressional committee to count the gold in Fort Knox. The pur pose of this, he said, would be to determine the "actual amount of bullion on deposit there. He noted that no body of elect- t rnrescntat ves had "ever en tered the sanctum sanctorum 01 any of our mint Institutions" to check on "the validity of inven tories which have been taken by aoDointcd people. To the naked eye, Kearns' pro posal would seem to be rife with imnlications. the most obvious one being that some sort of skul duggcry had been taking place In the vaults. Would Reassure Public Kearns, however, stipulated that he was not acting out of "distrust of personnel" in charge of the gold, "but rather to reassure the public as to the safety of their securities." Be that as it may, I can't seem to get that magazine article out of my mind. I keep remembering how that poor widow told her children there was money in the coffee can, . . Suppose, I say to myself, the committee that Kearns wants to create found out there actually Isn't any gold at Fort Knox , . . that Uncle Sam has only been us ing it as a security symbol. If that were the case, we would be like the widow's children. We would be better off If we didn't know it There is a moral in the widow's story which can be applied to the entire monetary system. The moral Is: Stale coffee is as good as currency as long as you don't try to spend it, .NOTICE J. P.

He told Secretary of State Chris tian A.

The casket was one of two dis covered by contractor Ollie Pesch, who is working on the restoration of the old mission. The contractor, who made stud ies of the early California mis sions, said he believed one casket contained the remains of a priest and the other held the remains of Joe Joaquin de Arrilaga. Arrilaga was governor. of Alta California from 1792 to 1794 and again from 1802 until his death In 1814. Two hundred persons gathered at the mission, located 25 miles south of Salinas, to see the red wood wedge-shaped casket opened. Human bones and a bronze cm cifix were found inside. Restoration expert Harry Dow- nie, Carmel, said he was con. vinced the remains were those of Arrilaca. He said the age and con dition of the casket and the fact that Arrilaca had asked to be buried beneath the mission indi cated this was true. The casket was closed and re buried beneath the mission floor. The crucifix was removed and given to the Our Lady of Solitude Catholic Church in Soledad. t.

This is difficult role to play 24 hours 'Bubble Man' Finally Has Million Record Sell-Out Two Men Held Key To Settlement Just Before Civil War Outbreak Editor's Note The greatest tragedy of the Civil War, argue, historian Bruce Cation, is that it was not in fact necessary. In this last in a series of articles, he re ports a conversation which indi cates how easily men of reason and good will could have reached compromise. By BRUCE CATTON Written For The Associated Press One of the most tragic things about the coming of the Civil War is tlie fact that Just before the curtain went up two men possib ly without quite realizing it showed how the business might have been settled. Late in February, 1861, 10 days or' so before the Lincoln adminis tration took office, William H. Seward of New York, who was about- to become Lincoln's secre tary of state, met at a Washing ton dinner party with Justice John A. Campbell of the Supreme Court. Campbell was a good Alabam an, and when the split came he would go with his state. But this night he and Seward, in friend ship, discussed the great problem and agreed that the Union ought not to be allowed to break up over the slavery issue. In their talk they said the things ihaf someone ought to have been savins earlier, nut in nublir in day. You will find it easier tojihe national political conventions, communicate with your child if! in th ntwsirimitial camMlon. In limit of its development. Mean. -vhile, said Campbell, the mosi the slavery group could ask was he continued protection of Slav- ciy in the slates where it already existed. In the territories the bat tie was lost New Mexico, for in stance, had been open to slave immigration for a full decade and only 29 slaves had been taken there. Again Seward Interrupted: "On ly 24, sir." Twenty-four, In 10 years, under full protection of the laws. Was there any sense, asked Justice Campbell, in letting the Union be destroyed over the ques tion of slavery in the territories when slavery obviously was not going to establish itself in the ter ritories in any case? Seward agreed that there was not, Now this talk ended In nothing better than friendly agreement be tween the Northerner and the Southerner over an after-dinner brandy. But can anyone doubt that if talk of that kind had been carried on openly, In convention and on the political stump and in newspaper columns, over the years, the tragic break-up of the Union might have been averted? Two men, one from Alabama and one from New York, talking unemotionally In a drawing room could so easily agree that the is sue could and should be bandied; ' could agree that the very cause of the dispute was itself dyinl and would, if men approached it reasonably, presently reduce it self to manageable size. Was it not Incumbent, somewhere along the line, on responsible leaders, politicians, editors and plain cit izens to have said the same thing in public? That is what our democratie machinery is for. It gives us the chance to handle problems which, left to the emotions, become un manageable. The nation's endur ing tragedy is that in 1860 and 1861 that machinery was not used. We have only this haunting record of a conversation between Seward and Campbell to remind us of what might have been done. Make no mistake about that: The American Civil War was not the "irrepressible conflict." It need not have taken place. It set tled nothing that reasonable men of good will could not have set tled if they had been willing to make the effort. The record of the war has a variety of meanings. Its most tragic meaning of all is that 600.000 young men lost their lives because their elders had been unwilling to meet a divisive issue with reason and forbear- By VERNON KCOTT UPI Hollywood Correspondent HOLLYWOOD (UPD-Aftor bat lling his way through billions of bubbles and a thousand recording sessions good old Lawrence Welk has finally achieved the ultlmate- his first cold record. The master of uh-one, tin-two and uh-three music came through with his first smash hit. "Calcut ta." bv tumina to a rock 'n' roll beat. Lawrence looks like twins he's that much beside himself with glee. The coveted golden record1 has eluded him since 1938 when his champagne music began bub bling. . ' ' I fool wunnerful about this,' he said munching a noonday ham burger. "I've been trying hard for a long time to make a record that could sell a million, in recent years it became a goal I didn't expect to achieve. I thought mv music was on the wrong track. "Oh Happy Day" Wclk's previous best-seller was "Oh Happy Day" which sold only ! 250.000 copies. - It w as a source ot humiliation and frustration to Lawrence to watch such young pups as Fabian. Elvis Presley and Bobby Darin come along and sell a million rec ords without turning a hair or their sideburns. But here was Welk with a 40 piece band, 45 albums to his cre dit and no hits. He was the butt ot jokes, e a 1 1 e d the "King of Korn." Now Lawrence is swinging as "Calcutta" promises to reach the two million mark. ' Appeal to Youth - "I'm thinking younger now," he said, "Our band Is beginning to appeal to the youth of the coun try, but al the same time not los ing our following among the older folks." ' This sudden success will not cause-a revolution in Wclk's style. The bubble machine will be around for a long time.' "Quantity doesn't count as much as quality." the band leader said. It is our plan Id mix our music so the old and the young will en joy it. "We were concerned about the fact that the elders didn't enjoy the same music that youth does. Their tastes are different. 'We'll be doing more modified rock and roll-type things in the future, he said. you let him know that Mom and Dad can err too. 8. Don't make threats in anger or impossible promises when you are in a generous mood. Threat en or promise only that which you can live up to. To a child, a parent's word means every thing. The child who has lost faith in his parents has difficulty believing in anything. 9. Do not smother your child with superficial manifestations of love. The purest and healthiest love expresses itself in day-m-i day-out training which breeds self-confidence and independence. 10. Teach your child there is dignity in hard work, whether it is performed with calloused hands that shovel coal or skilled fingers that manipulate surgical instru ments. Let him know a useful life is a blessed one and a life of ease and pleasure-seeking - is empty and meaningless. 11. Do not try to protect your child against every small blow and ' disappointment. Adversity strengthens character and makes us compassionate. Trouble Is the great equalizer. Let him learn it 12. Teach your child to love God and to love his fellow man. Don't send your child to a place of worship take him there Children learn from example Telling him something is not teaching him. If you give your child a deep and abiding faith, Congress, or somewhere. Slavery, said Campbell, was a transitory institution; it would in evitably be greatly modified or abandoned altogether in the course of time. Modification in fact was already taking place; for years slavery had been receding in the Upper South, and it was really flourishing now only in the rich plantation area of the Deep South. There slavery was thriv ing, and' it perhaps would be 25 years before that area's expand ing needs for slave labor were fully met. Seward interrupted him here to remark: "Say 50 years." Very well: 50 years, in all, before the institution would have reached the in God It can be nis strengtn and his light when all else fails. I ANN LANDERS Are your parents too strict?
