Hi George,
As you have found out returning spin is one of the most frustrating parts of Table Tennis.
The key mistake you are making is you are trying to spin the ball back. The idea is to use your bat like a rudder on a ship and steer the ball back. Just move the angle of the bat until the ball heads in the right direction. If you try to spin the ball back you are playing across the line of the ball and it gets very difficult. Try steering the ball back and see how that works for you.
