Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have moth.
Ing. to ask only to tell what think OF
the girl who signed Daughter and
WIFE," do not want her cease loving
her mother for I think every child born
into the world should love its mother
but her mother can cause her q great
deal Of pain, more than she will ever
realize. l am married and have 2 dear
little Girls 6 years and the other Is
months old. When We were first mar
Red my husbands mother wanted US
to live with them until spring and she
almost turned us against each other
We quarreled always and she told him
what to say at first. I cried then and
I didn't care for family peace. I do
not love my husband, but for the chill
dren's sake live with him for think
they need fathers love and care as
much as that of mother. What I
would like for this young wife to see
is that she will be spared many hours
Of tears and worry. try to treat my
mother-in-law nicely and say the right
at the right time but it won't come out
right. My married life, is a failure and
I am not happy but it is duty before
love. E. b. r.
Again we hear the old story zone
roof not large enough for two families
and indeed it seems that this is all too
true. It is always better to live alone,
than with others parents. I hope that
your life will soon change and you
will again be happy. If you keep on
trying and do the right thing, feel
sure that things will take a turn for
the better before long.

Senator Beueridge Gets
Ovation at Plymouth

PLYMOUTH, Mass. Dec. 23-Albert
J. Beveridee. former senator from 1ndi-
ana. received an ovation here last
night when he spoke at the celebra-
ton of the two hundred and ninety.
ninth anniversary of the landing Of
the Pilgrims.
In a mastery discussion of the prob
lens confronting America today, Mr..
Beveridge showed that the country has
been drifting away from the basic prin.
ciples that have enabled 1t to endure,
and declared that he time has come
for Arm stand against the ''isms"
and innovations that selfish classes are
trying to introduce.
The time has come, he declared, to
put a stop to the coercion of the gov
eminent by groups Of men. whether
capitalists or workers, II America is
to continue as government by all
the people.
He condemned the Adamson law and
the settlement Of the recent coal
strike as a surrender by the admin
stration of the rights of the people to
a particular group.

PEASANTS SHUT OFF
Vienna FOOD SUPPLY

VIENNA, Dec. 23.-The Austrian re-
public is passing through states
rights" crisis very similar to that
which marked Al earlier stage of the
American republic. Provinces are de-
handing high degree of independ-
ence from the central government. and
in some of them, such as the Tyrol
and Upper Austria and Syria. it
amounts to almost complete auton-
omy. II their demands are event
ually granted about the only thing
that would be left to the Central gov.
ernment would be the foreign rela-
tons and regulations Of foreign i'm
port and export traffic and limited
taxation.
The states insist upon their rights
to levy export duties on goods des-
tined for other states. Students Of
the situation say that this is merely
a phase Of the transition stage through
which the new republic is passing and
gradually will cure itself.
The conservative provincial popu-
lation, the peasantry and bourgeoise
look upon Vienna as the scat and
source of communism or the REDS"
Feeling is intense against this city,
which at present is virtually non-pro-
ductive and has 100000 people de-
handing food, and the provinces re-
fuse to fulfill the contracts made last
spring for food supplies.

Question of Credit
May be Discussed at
January Conference

VALPARAISO, Dec. 23.-Chile ex.
poets that tho extension of credits to
south American countries by the
bankers and business men of the Unit
ed States will be brought up before
the Second Financial Pan-American
conference at Washington in January.
The first conference held in 1915, de-
clared that solution of this question Of
credit was essential.
National credits also will be con-
s1dered by the conference. In spite
OF the enormous gold reserves accu-
mulated in tho banks of the United
States during the war, it seems evil
dent to Chileans that these banks are
not yet in a position to make invest
ments in South America. Evidence of
this is seen in the difficulties encount-
cred in negotiating tho $4,000, 900
loan of the Chilean government to
obtain funds to buy railroad material.
1t is felt here that, in the matter of
public credits, North American bank
ers chould learn from North Ameri-
can merchants
Chilean business men believe that
North American merchants are be-
ginning to understand better the mu-
tual convenience to be derived from
the extension of 60 to 80 days credit
on bills against the South American
houses. This has been the practice
Of European merchants dealing with
those of South America.
Other matters to come before the
Financial Pan-American conference,
as outlined here, are uniform legisla-
ton on letters of exchange, checks,
and cargo manifests; steps to faccili-
tate exchange Of products between
American nations and adequate trans
portation facilities between the Unic.
ed States and South America.
