Retarded Children
Are Sensitive, Too
NEW YORK (UPD-Retarded
children are more like other
children than unlike them. Like
normal children, retarded chil
dren are sensitive to the opinion
of others. And. there is much
the mentally retarded children
can learn, if parents and teach,
ers help him with what most
normal children absorb or figure
out by themselves.
These are among the several
points made in a publication
which arrives only a few days
after President Kennedy signed
legislation authorizing a $.'C9
million program to deal with
mental retardation through the
construction ofcommunity
health centers and through re
search and treatment.
The President's tisler, Rose
mary, oldest daughter' of iMr.
and Jlrs. Joseph P. Kennedy,
is in an institution for the men
tally retarded.
"People used to he ashamed
of a menially retarded child,"
the President's mother told one
reporter recently. "That's not
true today. People don't thkik
a child should be shunted eway,
and not mentioned."
Mrs. Kennedy told of the
family foundation that has given
more than $16.5 million since
1946 to hospitals, institutions,
day care centers and research
projects in the field of mental
health. ,
The author of the publication,
"The Retarded Child Gets Ready
for School," Is concerned par
ticularly with education because
She says it determines to
great extent how successful the
child will be in leading as nor
mal a life as possible.
The booklet is the work of
Airs. Margaret Hill, education
chairman of the Wyoming
branch of the National Associa
tion or Retarded Children and
writer on the subjects of men
tal health, child-rearing and
education. The publisher is the
Public Affairs Committee, a
non-profit education organiza
tion founded in 1935.
Mrs. Hill explains there arc
varying degrees of retardation
and that sometimes it is neces
sary to institutionalize a child
who is so severely retarded
that his physical care makes
the family tense, irritable and
overly-fatigued.
The author shows through the
contrasts in the story of twin
buys, one of whom is retarded,
one not, how a family can pre
pare a retarded youngster for
school.
She remimled that a handicap
ped child should not be iden
tified by his exceptionality as
"that deaf boy," "that retarded
child," "the girl with the limp."
"Retarded children are more
like other children than unlike
them," she said. "And general
goals for educating the retarded
should follow, in so far as prac
tical, the same goals for educa
tion of normal children... (m)
self-sufficiency, economic use
fulness, salisfying human rela
tionships, civic responsibility."
"Obviously." the added, "the
degree to which each of these
goals can be fulfilled varies ac
cording to the nature and sever
ity of the child's mental deficit."

Election Results Please Kennedy
WASHINGTON ( UPI 'Presi
dent Kennedy and other Demo
cratic leaders exulted today in
the party's performance in tak
ing the big prizes in Tuesday's
elections. Kennedy was p i c
lured as "very satisfied" with
the outcome of what National
Chairman John M. Bailey
called "clear tests of party
strength."
Republicans contended that
the GOP '.-.ctories in a number
of local contests showed solid
evidence of a grass roots re
surgence that could pave their
way to the White House next
year.
President Kennedy was espe
cially pleased with the Demo
cratic victories in mayoralty
races in Philadelphia, San
Francisco and Columbus, Ohio,
and the Kentucky gubernatorial
race, the White House said.
The President, who stayed up
lute listening to results, was
not quoted on the Democratic
win in the Mississippi gover
nor's race, however. Both can
didates there ran on an anti
Kennedy platform. Q
The White House took espe
cial note of the Democratic vic
lo'CI, however narrow, in Ken
tucky where Kennedy was out
polled by Richard Nixon in
19M).
Bailey said the victories in
Kentucky and Philadelphia
were "repudiation of Republi
can efforts to win votes by rac
ist appeals . . ."
Bailey said the Democrats
won the important races "while
there were the expected num
ber of off-year turnovers in lo
cal elections on local issues."
The Republican National
Committee said, however, that
"we made dramatic inroads in
areas known as Democratic
strongholds and in many other
contests a definite Republican
trend is apparent."

Rakow said.
"I the?i flew out to see how
thev were doing," he explained
today. "WhOi I saw the deer

I landed in a field and told
them where the critter was."
Itakow, who is in Seattle on

wrong. But like anybody else I
can make a mistake and pay
the same bill."
