most io men are lo blame for h.Uev Hudkins (his KLAL name), an attorney and economist in 11 Manpower Administration, says he has documented evidence that female domination causes schizophrenia, diabetes, paranoia, colds, headaches, suicide, alcoholism, homosexuality, cancer, arthritis, and sterility. Mr. Hudkins has sup- Porting material from psychiatrists, sociologists, lawyers and anthropologists. My husband read me the report right out of a newspaper and I was horrified to think that a government employe in good standing would put out such rubbish. Do you know anything about this man? What do you think of his statements? Stunned in Stamford Dear Stunned: The man is 36, unmarried and he earns $17,000 a year.

While some of his allegations contain a shred of validity, he goes off the deep end and drowns in uncharted waters. Homosexuality and alcoholism among males might well be caused by a domineering mother but when Mr. Hudkins starts blaming women for cancer, arthritis and diabetes, he's going too far. Moreover, for every woman who gives a man a'Tieadache, a cold, or worse, there's a man who.has done the same to some woman. I do not believe that one sex suffers more at the hands of the other.

Dear Ann Landers: Our only child is a bright; beautiful little girl, two years of age. Joyce'has wonderful manners. My husband and I treat her like an adult which is why she is so precocious. When we entertain guests we always seat her at the table. She stays up until she asks to go to bed.

When we go visiting we take Joyce with us. She is toilet (rained and eats everything. 1 Nobody has ever objected--in fact, people seem to enjoy having her around. Yesterday a friend said something that upset me terribly. She invited us to dinner next'week and added, "Please don't bring Joyce." I was dumbfounded when she blurted out, "I've heard a lot of criticism because you drag that child everywhere." I am hurt and don't know what to think of her remark.

Why would a woman be so Calif. Dear Monterey: I don't believe the woman was spiteful. I think she was telling you something you needed to hear. Parents do their young children no favor when they take them everywhere. A two-year-old does not belong everywhere.

If you wish to seat Joyce at your dinner table when guests are present, fine--but you should not impose her on others. Consider the woman's comment an 1 act of friendship and learn from it. Dear Ann Landers: Please give me an opportunity to reply to the 16-year-old girl who signed herself "Slave Labor." She didn't see why she should be asked to get off the phone and set the table while her mother sat around reading or sewing. I am 17. This is my last year of high school.

Seven years ago my mother died and left seven children--the youngest 15 months old. I've been cooking, scrubbing floors, making beds, washing and ironing and yes, setting the (able since I was ten. I'm not complaining. In fact I am better off than most girls my age. They don't know what life is all about.

I do. I'd like losay to all teen-age girls who read your column: Help your mother while you have the chance. Help her because you love her, not because you have to. You don't know how hard her jot) is until you do And Lost Dear Friend: If you had your mother until you were ten, your basic behavioral pattern was set before she died. She did her work well--and how fortunate for you that she did.

When the challenge came you were equipped (o meet i Thanks for a fine letter. Dear Ann Landers: If a girl punches a guy in the mouth for no reason, is it O.K. to punch her back? The kid who got punched is one of the grooviest guys ever. We hope you'll say yes because he let her have it right in the kisser and we think he did the right thing. What do you say? --Palestine, Texas Dear Pal: When a guy (no matter how groovy) gets punched in the mouth there's usually, a reason.

Let's assume, however, that he was completely innocent. It was still wrong to punch her back. Gentlemen are not supposed to hit ladies. Better he should have taken the chick home and fed her telephone number to the nearest goat.
