"Regardless of what the pro- blem is" he said, the best course of action' for parents is in prevention. He added that emotional im- maturity and personality de- fects supply the fertile ground in which will flourish alcolism, and other psycho-social disor- ders, frequently with physical complications. "All these problems come back to the sacred responsibili- ty parents take upon them- selves when they undertake to raise. children. Responsibility for them dees not end with providing food and shelter. edu- cation, social status, or finan- cial security. Much deeper than these should be the effort of both parents to create the kind of home, and affection in which strong balanced individuals grow to mature adults. "A home where the expres- | sion of love is shown easily every day in a multitude of ways, and where respect and consideration for each other is the way of life. "with love parents must also have faith, and both dedication and intelligence to properly fill their role in.the lives of theil children," he concluded. Following Mr. Kulmatycki's address, there was a lively question and answer time when many problems concerning teenagers were discussed. Corp. Kulmatycki had brought several pamphlets which were distributed among the audience, who gave resounding applause in appreciation of the speech.

The Minister indicated today while there was wide- spread acceptance of the white paper proposals, ad- ministrative difficulties precluded immediate in-* troduction of fuller legislation at this time which would be of assistance in meeting unemployment pro= blems this winter.
