BOYS
5 THAT HE RUN£ AROUND
SWnrH THAT HE DOESN'T
/v- i i u'r-' ry[f=
THE WEEK'S LETTER: M An-|
swer question for me, if you
I like a boy very much and
he says that he likes me. Yet, he
tells the boys that he runs around
with that he doesn’t like me.
When we are together, he is fine
when we are alone. Whenever
boys appear, he acts as if I am
not even around. I like him very
much, but do not think he is
treating me as he should. What
I do about it?”
OUR REPLY: You can give the
lad the same kind of treatment,
or you can wait until he “grows
up” a bit more. He will decide in
time that he isn’t fooling anyone
but himself when he says, “No, I
don’t like her.” One of these* days
he will say, “Sure, I like her.
What about it?”
Let’s face it Some boys are
“show-offs.” They can be the per
fect gentleman in the company of
a girL Let some buddies come
into view, however, and they
feel compelled to impress their
friends. They may try this by
either being indifferent or being
“cute.” Once the other boys de
part, such a lad will become a
gentleman again.
The girl who is with a boy
who suddenly acts as if she is
not around will be small if, sud
denly, she is not around. If this
happens a couple of times, the
boy will begin to realize that it’s
no fun at all to be left or to be
ignored.
In summary, no girl is smart
who will, for instance, go to the
Malt Shoppe with a boy, then sit
on the sidelines while he “for
gets” she is there and deserts
her for a bunch of boys. The fact
that he always comes back is not
important The thing is that he
is guilty of very poor manners—
and no gal should stand for it

THE
MANION
FORUM
Months of demonstration, re
crimination and violence have
thrown more heat than light on
the tortured subject of civil
rights. Technically, a civil right is
a privilege conferred by the civil
law. Once it is established, the
Constitution requires that the
privilege must be administered by
! responsible officials without dis
crimination on account of race,
color or creed.
In most instances, what demon
strators are contending for now
is not indiscriminate enforcement
of existing civil rights, but for
new civil rights to be created by
new laws which would make it il
legal for certain persons to dis
criminate against certain other
persons.
The pending so-calied Civil
Rights Bill is actually" about ten
per cent civil rights and ninety
per cent extension of Federal ex
ecutive power at the expense of
individuals, states and municipal
ities. If you are a home owner, it
will dictate to you how you can
use a room in your house for ren
tal purposes, and it will tell you
to whom you may sell the home if
you decide to do so.
If you own any kind of estab
lishment offering goods or ser
vices to others, this will be classi
fied as a “public accommodation”
and will be subject to federal con
trol.
If you have a child in school, you
are already subject to federal con
trol, and if you have anything at
all to do with federal financing,
you are subject to federal control.
This includes borrowing from a
bank that is insured by the FDIC,
and if you have a loan insured by
FHA or the Veterans Administra
tion, you are under federal control.
If you are a farmer and are in
volved in any way in Farm credit,
Soil Conservation, REA or any
of the dozen others catering to
farmers, you are under federal
control.
The difference between the pres
ent situation and the situation un
der the pending bill is that the
new bill would not wait for some
one to complain about you. A Fed
eral inspector would simply come
in and he could claim that there
is a racial imbalance, in your em
ployment or that you don’t have
a proper per centage of Catholics,
Jews or Protestants on your pay
roll.
The simple result might be that
if you don’t comply immediately
with his orders, all your federal
financing will be stopped and you
would not be eligible for any fur
ther financial help in case you
needed it.
Also, if you run a business or
if you personally pay a license fee
to a state or municipality for any
activity subject to federal control,
you must comply or lose your lic
ense. Every profession and busi
ness is included and there is no
end to the control.
Under this bill, the U. S. Com
missioner of Education can come
into a school and transfer your
child from that school to another
until there is racial or religious
balance as he interprets such bal
ance.
If we should have a politically
minded Attorney General at some
time in the future and he wanted
to go into an area where the vot
ing might be close, he could file
a suit, make allegations, , and
register tens of thousands of vot
ers who could then cast their votes

A growing family can
put an awful strain on
bathroom facilities.
Sometimes, a second
bathroom is financially
out of the question. But,
how about a shower?
This is a practical idea
and one not too expensive
if there is a ready-made
site for same.
Is there a powder room
in your home? Get the con
venience of an extra
“bath” by installing a pre
fabricated shower cabinet.
Modern prefab shower cabinets
are rugged constructed and smart
ly rtyled. Enameled steel side
panels are comer-sealed with
compression-tight joints to pre
vent rattle and clatter when show
er is in use.
Receptor floors are generally
treated in some manner to pre
vent slipping. Receptors are deep,
with high sides, to give protection
against leaking.
A glass door with non-rusting
binges adds a perfect finishing
touch.

in that election and they would be
counted even if thereafter they
are found to have been illegally
registered.
This bill would give control ov
er hiring, firing and demoting and
senorioty of employees in private
business. It will completely des
troy the rights of employees to
their seniority for the reason that
inspectors could find there was
racial imbalance and the employee
might then be demoted to allow
“racial balance” to be effective.
If chis bill passes as it is pres
ently written, every business man
may find a federal inspector look
ing down his throat and a federal
hand grasping him around the
neck.
The search for a wider and
more charitable conception of hu
man equality and fair treatment
is commendable and understand
able, but a good end can never
justify a bad means. Federal ab
solutism will not protect the civil
rights of anybody. On the con
trary it will end by destroying the
natural, God-given rights of every
body.
There is serious question about
the constitutionality of such legis
lation. Everyone who will be af
fected by this bill should get a
copy of it and study it carefully,
then decide whether it is the kind
of law the country needs, and then
advise your congressman and Sen
ators what you have decided about
it.
HOW RICH YOU’LL BE AT 65
—A WAY TO FIGURE IT OUT
Helen's Favorite:
Shrimp and Rice Casserole
(Serves 4)
1 tablespoon butter
2 cups rich milk
5 ounce can shrimp
2 cops cooked rice
% cup catsup
Va teaspoon tabasco sauce
1 teaspoon Worcestershire
sauce
Melt batter In saucepan; add
remaining ingredients. Bring to
a boil and simmer 5 minutes.
A MAN who has been making
around $150 a week is com
ing up for retirement January 1st,
and his wife has been driving
him crazy.
They will get a pension of only
$119 a month and combined So
cial Security of only $138 a
month, she has been telling him.
And on this pittance, which is
about a fourth of what they have
been getting, they will surely
starve.
The wife became so exercised
about the matter that she wrote
her husband’s company asking
how it dared to force a faithful
employee into retirement with
out enough money to live on.
Corporations are a little sen
sitive about this sort of thing.
So a VJP. in her husband’s com
pany told a bright boy in the
accounting department to look
into the case. And this is what
he found (which YOU may use
as a pattern before YOUR wife
writes the boss a nasty letter):
Mr. Hen-Pecked was going in
to retirement with his home free
of mortgage. The home was in
good shape, and it was agreed
that if he and his wif 3 rented
quarters as good they vjuld pay
$150 a month for them. So the
Bright Boy put down $50 a month
for upkeep, taxes, etc., and re
corded $100 a month on the credit
side of the couple’s ledger.
He then recorded $15 a month
for the health and hospital in
surance the company gave all
retiring employees (not as good
as some policies you can buy, but
good).
Next, with figures supplied by
the husband and wife, he figured
how much money it was costing
the husband to work. He came
up with $142.40 a month. This in
cluded $92 income tax, $20 for
transportation and lunches, $20
for clothes, and the remainder for
Social Security tax, razor blades,
haircuts, donations at the office,
etc.
On the credit side he now had
the couple up to an income—or
what was equivalent to an income
—of $257.40 a month.
He added the pension and So
cial Security for $257 more, or a
total now of $514.40 a month.
The man had some long-time
life insurance policies, now paid
up and with a cash value of
$7,000. It was suggested that the
wife would get $120 a month for
life in case her husband died—
from Social Security and a part
of the pension her husband had
set aside for her. She would not
have an acute need for the in
surance. So if the $7,000 cash
were taken and placed in an in
sured savings & loan or bank at
4 per cent interest it would pro
duce another $23 a month. (The
couple also could buy a monthly
annuity with it)
A final $20 a month could be
had if the couple took their sav
ings—$6,000 in U.S. Bonds—and
put them also in an insured ac
count at 4 per cent
The grand total was now
$557.40 per month. Or $6,688.80
a year. Or slightly better than
$128 a week.
