Housewife's Revitalized After Stint As Employee
By ROBERTA ROESCH Sometimes, a minor change in your life gives you a major reason for living. “That is what I found, and that ia the personal experience I would like to pass on to two readers whose letters you published recently,” writes a reader from Pennsylvania. “One note was from a wife who carried a chip on her shoulder because of the lack of satisfaction she found in homemaking. The other was from a woman who was equally dissatisfied with a job. Mentally Stagnant “For years, I was like the first reader,” this woman said, “since I was the typical restless housewife we read about so much. So, while I kept physically busy doing housework, I allowed myself to become mentally stagnant because job opportunities were out of my reach. Eventually, I became so listless, I almost made myself sick. “In fact, I did become so sick about my status quo that I stopped taking advantage of the things that were available In favor of moaning and groaning about the opportunities that weren’t.” When the woman reached this level of existence, both her husband and her doctor decided a job was her only answer. Refresher Course “And when they started pushing me toward that.” she writes, “I enrolled in a refresher course to prepare myself for a good starting job.’* Because this ambitious housewife pursued the course diligently and practiced her skills every moment, she landed a good starting job. But soon, she realized she wasn’t doing what she wanted. “After all the preparations I had made for working,” she said, “I discovered by the end of the first week I liked homelife so much better that I wanted to switch back. “For a long time, I was reluctant to make even a minor change In the new life I had planned because I was afraid I would be called a quitter if I kept making adjustments till I
“Eventually, however, I took the attitude that it would be better if I gave up the job that wasn’t pleasing me, switched back to my full-time role as a housewife and looked for new opportunities there. Had To Try It

“I felt like a new woman when I took that kind of action,” she said. “But I never would have come around to this way of thinking, if I hadn’t tried to do what had I thought I wanted to do.
CAIRO, UAR UPI — An internal clash over the price Egypt is prepared to pay for a $70 million advance from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) appears to be the major reason behind President Gamal Abdel Nasser’s new sweeping cabinet reform, the second in a
“I am glad, though, that I became smart enough to change back after I found that I liked making a home a lot more satisfying than making a salary.”
year. The price which the President was unwilling to pay, basic economic reform at home now. including “hidden devaluation,” which IMF experts considered essential to start Egypt on the long road back to financial stability at home and good standing abroad.
Nasser’s rejection of the IMF terms, acceptable to some key
members of the old cabinet, appeared to put the United Arab Republic back where it started a year ago when the Zakaria Mohieddin administration took over with the job of putting the economic house in order.
The IMF proposed what one source called “a substantial stabilization program” to be sure of getting its money back from the UAR, caught in a vicious circle of mounting foreign debt and a universal freeze of new credit until its position improved.
It included a three-part austerity program of higher prices and taxes, subsidies for exports and ruthless cutback in imports and government
spending. It also meant an end to financing budget deficits - 15 per cent this year - by borrowing from local banks.
With negotiations entering a crucial stage, Nasser stepped in and scattered almost his entire lineup of economic policymakers. He acted after grumbling from the masses over earlier price and tax increases rose to a new pitch when the price of rice was suddenly doubled in August
The new cabinet consisting for the most part of "faceless’ technicians and experts, will make sura that Nasser keeps closer personal control over the economy than he did during the short-lived Mohieddin administration.
Now the big question pondered by Western diplomats was where Egypt will turn to for help In solving its debt problems, accentuated by the need to import more foreign population.
One Wife Saw No Satisfaction In Her Life As A Homemaker
found the arrangement I liked. “As a result, I stuck with something that I did not want for a little more than a year. Then one day, I woke up to the fact that it was ridiculous for me to put off making changes because I was afraid of what others might think.
Bible for Blind NEW YORK (UPI) —The American Bible Society, now observing its 150 anniversary-, reports that in 1965 it distributed Braille books, Talking Bible Records and tape recordings of the Bible to about 30 per cent of the 400,000 blind persons in the United States. A total of 122,475 such Scripture portions were distributed to the blind.
