a SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1962 POUGHKEEPSIE JOURNAL PAGE THREE Dis Letter Box in the Kansas City, airport for a plane to Salt Lake City, 1 overheard two, women discussing neighbor whose son had been arrested along with other teenagers for vandalism. They held against the mother that she workit ed. was all attention. The lead letter for my Saturday column was from a little girl in defense of her mother working. Hastily snatching -a notebook and from my purse, I settied -down to the role of eavesdropper.

"If Merta had been home where she belongs instead of in the office, this never would have happened." said the first woman. "Being a mother is a' full time The second agreed. "Suppose she didn't have the money to keep going after Ned died, her folks should have helped. After all, the welfare of your child comes first." The two were still holding kangaroo anounced. court when my fight was Once the plane reached altitude, I unfastened my seat belt and reached into my bag for the letter from the little girl whose mother worked.

Mary Wilkinson was her name and she lives in Orem, Utah. She wrote with conviction and fluency unusual kid in a teenager. "Every time a blame gets trouble, people home she declared. "And if the mother is working, they rant and rave about how there would be no delinquency if mothers stayed home and looked after their children. "The kids around here got 1 into trouble all had at home, but being home didn't make those women good mothers.

They never cared what happened their children. They would half done, dinner still to take off for a movie, housework ed, and night after night they would be out dancing while their kids were home alone. "My mother has worked ever since I was seven and my sister nine, but she stays home at night with us and in the day we are left with a dependable relative. Our mother is always thinking of us, never herself. Because she works, we have good clothes (the latest style), an allowance (which we save for essential things), and a home that is a real home.

If my sister and I amount to anything, it is because of a working mother and she is no different from others who work. To blame them for juvenile delinquency is very unfair and I will dispute anyone who says One shouldn't generalize but I am inclined to agree with Mary. The two women who blame the working mother of the wild boy, were speaking from hearsay. They couldn't know all the facts. Youngsters just don't go suddenly dilinquent.

Latent within them, almost from birth, is the will to do right or the will to do wrong. Children born with every advantage i in the world sometimes develop into scoundrels while others who practically grew up on dungheaps great human beings. A parent by setting an example can encourage a child to be its best self, as in the case of Mary's mother. On the whole, I believe that a mother who works is better qualified to be a mother and homemaker than one who doesn't. Because of her very contact with life, she will be more understanding.

My own mother had the job of editing the J. G. Mitchell Wholesale Trade when was a small child. This took her to downtown New York every day. Since her hours were comparatively short she could drop me at school on her way to the office and pick me up as she came home.

The summer routine was different. We boarded in the country and Mother commuted. This put me on my own. For the first time, though never really alone because there were always other people around, I felt responsible for me. Good or bad, my deeds would be on my head.

This responsibility developed a self-reliance which I might not otherwise have, acquired certainly not an early age if my Mother hadn't worked.
