tivo Blacks, a man and a wo

Deai Mrs. Riggs nee:

you talk in tlre paper about such
intimate Hi trigs like sex and
birth control and so on. Don’t
you know young girls, teen

Dear Indignant Reader-
As a matter of fact, I hope
teen-age girls, and boys, too, do
read my column and "get
ideas.” I assure you that the
ideas the;, get will not harm
them, but ill in man\ cases
correct wrong information they
have picked up from friends,
co.:.ie books, off-color jokes
and other doubtful sources.
If a youngster is old enough
to show interest in this column,
she 'or he) is old enough to be
told the true facts of life, in
cluding the importance of fami

Dear Mis. Riggsbee:
If you can have a baby and
you don’t want to, are you nor-
mal? G. I.
I Dear G. L.:
, There is nothing abnormala
bout not wanting to have chil
dren, There are many reasons •
why a woman, or a couple, may
not wish to raise a family. Af
ter coming to this decision, it
is wise for the couple concern
ed to use a reliable method
of birth control so that an un
wanted child is not brought in
to the world.
It is true that often a Wo
man will not want to become
pregnant but if she does - “by
accident or perhaps just to
please her husband-she usual
ly lives the resulting- baby just
as much as any woman who
longed for a child with all her
heart.
1 Also it is a woman’s pre
rogative to change her mind
in this as In anything else.
You may not want a baby now,
or next year or the year af
ter that, but some day in the
future, you may to your sur
prise, find yourself yearning for
a balay of your own.
But if you never do, don’t
worry about it. Many couples

Dear Mrs. Riggsbee:
My husband and I are still
in our teens. We have been
married only a few months, but
I am beginning to feel it was a
mistake. We Doth come from
unhappy homes and got married
just to get away from home,
as much as for reasons of
love, etc. Lately, it seems we
are quarreling all the time a
bout one thing or another, or
we go for days without speak
ing. I have been on the verge of
leaving many times, but where
would 1 go o
Now my husband has the idea
that if we have a child it will
keep our marriage from falling
apart. I don’t believe this and
Resiles, I think I am too young
to begin have children, as I am
onl\ 17. I take birth control pills
and he wants rue to stop. What
do >ou think? B. B.
Dear B. B.:
Many couples a lot older than
you two have tried to “save"
a marriage by having a child,
only to find their problems rnul
• tiplied. This is no remedy for
the basic incompatibility be
tween you and your husband. I
suspect most of your troubles
can be helped only by your
growing more mature. But don’t
go or, q u . ; rreling and being un
happy without seeking help.
Perhaps you can talk to your
clergyman, or see a marriage
counselor. But please* don’t'
a flow yourself to become pregn
ant until you are sure you can
bring a child into a secure,
loving home.

that Mr. Raymond L. Spangler,

press has a responsibility to see
that the people know what is
going on in their government.”
The constitutional protection
01 a tree press is not a right
of the press per se, but of
the people, and is "a guarantee
of a fundamental grant tothc-m

neither their government nor
their press could prevent them
