Husbands Is
Real Crime
BY MARTHA LEE

The husband whose wife deviseS
a way Of making lazy husbands in
dustrious and ambitious can retire
for life and live on his wife's in
come.
Because there are any number Of
husbands who, contrary to the popu-
lar beli-f thai marriage always
straightens a man out" simply
stretch out after the tedious walk
TO the altar, and never do get rested
up again.
Wives with such husbands haven't
much choice in the matter. So far
no invention to stir lazy husbands
blood into action has been perfect
ed. The wife can plague him, nag
him, be sweet and kind and gentle
offer him encouragement and good
food and praise his ego to the skies
and If he is lazy he will stay lazy
Which means she must leave him
to toast his toes in the sun by him

take up the task of supporting her

become accustomed.
or there is something else she
can do. She can accept the help 81
both their families, which will be
bad for both of them.
Ambition Synonymous
One of the traits most closely
allied with manhood is ambition
It has been bracketed with that
word for so long they almost are
synonymous. Being ambitious does
not necessarily mean setting out TO
build new worlds COR new records,
1t simply means having the strength
of character to shoulder an obliga-
ton and march on with it. It
means simply doing the most one
is capable of each day. Which
after all, is not such an exorbitant
amount to ask.
Dear Miss Lee-Could you advise wife
srhat to do to make her husband go TO
work and stick with it? We have baby
nearly nine months old and my people
have supported us ever since the day we
were married.
Nv husband has had several Jobs. He
works Just long enough to make US think
he is really willing to work and then
quits.
NY mother and father are getting old
NV father has been such a hard working
man all his life. I really ashamed to
have him support US. What can 1 do?
Even after all they have done for US.
my husband does not like them. They
are willing to take the baby and me and
give us a home. Should I go back to
them? F. S.
Earn the Money
There is no recipe that I know
of to get your husband to stick to
a job. unless it is to starve him if
he doesn't. It's up to you to do
what you think best. OF course it
is impossible for you to expect your
parents to support you any longer
One of the reasons your husband
does not like your mother and father
probably is because he was able to
work them so easily.
If you would be unhappy without
your husband, do. not leave him
Find work, and earn the money you
need to support your child and run
your home. If you would not be un-
happy without him, take your chic
to your parents and find work fol-
the support of yourself and the
child. Incidentally your leaving
might have a rejuvenating affect
upon your husbands waning
strength. If he cares anything about
you and your baby and he sees you
mean business about him getting a
Job and keeping it. he might make a
sincere effort to please you.
And if he doesn't care about the

the gauntlet of Senate confirmation.
When he was appointed by former
President Coolidge as one of the Gov
eminent counsel in the Teapot Dome
and other oil land leasing suits, his ap-
pointment was confirmed by the Senate
voted against him. Mr.. Roberts record
in these cases as Government prose-
cutor, however, has been such that 1t Is
doubtful any members of the Senate
would voice their opposition to him for
such post now.
The fight made in the Senate against
Chief Justice Hughes when his nominal
ton was before that body and later
the fight against Judge Parker were
based largely on the ground that they
were too conservative and not respon-
into conflict with property rights

they were admittedly well pleased when
they were informed of his selection for

vindication of their successful fight

agreed to suspend Judgment in the
Roberts case at this time. Another

is refraining from commenting upon
the nomination. Senator Sheppard is 3
member of the judiciary committee and

1t is not unprecedented to have ap-
pointees to the Supreme Court appear
before the Senate judiciary committee
to answer questions. Justice Stone, for
example, was heard by the COMMITTEES
after his appointment and before he
was confirmed. The committee, how
ever, did not call Chief Justice Hughes,
and it declined to adopt a motion OF
Senator Overman to invite Judge
Parker to appear before it to answer
attacks which had been made on him.
The understanding is that Mr.. Rob-
erts will not make a public statement
at this time of his views on prohibition
unless he is called before the judiciary
committee and quizzed about that issue.
So far there has been no indication he
will be requested to come before the

HOOVER CATCHES
TROUT LIMIT OF 70
Richey Is Next in Presidential
Party, Hooking II, in :
Days Fishing.
BY the Associated Press.

ORANGE, Va, May 10.-President
Hoover spent today casting for trout IN
the waters about his Rapidan River
fishing camp and emerged with the
maximum number allowed under the
Virginia law.
The Chief Executive led his party In
the days fishing, with Larry Richey,
one of his secretaries, next, with II
trout, 8 under the total caught by
his chief
Others who enjoyed the days sport,
which began almost Immediately after
the party arrived at the mountain
camp early today, were Associate
Justice Stone, Secretary Wilbur, Walter
Hope, Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury; joel T. Boone, White House
physician; Mark Sullivan, a newspaper
man, and Dr. Hubert Work, former
chairman of the Republican national
committee.
The Chief Executive had chosen one
of the most beautiful times of the year
to visit: his camp. Rhododendronf was
just breaking into bloom as he passed
over the winding mountain trail. The
rock garden built at the instance and
under the supervision of Mrs. Hoover
also was fragrant with new Spring
flowers.
Leaving the White Holise after an
early breakfast, the President and his
party made swift run to the camp.
They had hardly arrived before Mr..
Hoover had donned his fishing garb,
high topped rubber boots, and soon was
in the stream casting his favorite bats.
Lolling about the camp later, he found
surcease from the heat of the Capital
and relief from political struggles. Mr..
Hoover expected to return to his ONCE
Monday morning.
One member of the party, who was
unable to take full part in the days
sport was Secretary Hurley. who has
been resting at the camp for several
days. Mr.. Hurley has suffered for sew
eral weeks from stomach ailment and
this week, after attending the Tuesday
cabinet meeting, he accepted the invi-
tation of the President to ,convalesce
at the Rapidan camp.
Mrs. Hoover was unable to accompany
her husband as a wrenched back which
she suffered last month has kept her
confined to the White House.

Resenting, the imputation that the
Protestant ministers of Washington
have done anything to indicate they
favor either repeal of the eighteenth
amendment to the Constitution or are
in favor of modifying present prohibit
ton enforcement acts, a poll has been
taken by them through the Federation
of Churches, that their true attitude
may be revealed to the public. The
results show but clergymen are
for modification, none for repeal, while
IS are for enforcement.
A statement just issued by the Wash
ing Protestant clergy, through DR.. II. Il.
Woolever, last night says:
Growing out Of the publicity in the
daily press regarding what was pur-
ported to be q poll of the clergy OF the
District of Columbia taken by the Lit
erary Digest, the Protestant ministers

PEAL ministers representing practically

bition. Each UNCONVENTIONAL group APP

ninety-eight ministers, representing ~
Protestant denominations, were can
Vassed, with the result that not one
Protestant pastor was found among all

THE false impression which the Lit

when the figures for the clergy of the
District of Columbia as published in
the Literary Digest Of May 3 and used
widely by the daily press are compared
with a personal canvass of the Protes-

SENATOR'S OFFICE
SEARCH UNSOLVED
Capitol Officials Plan More
Police-Johnson Grapples
Mystery of Visit.

While investigators sought to unravel
the mystery Of the ransacking of the
Office of Senator Hiram Johnson, Re-
publican, of California, early yesterday,
Capitol officials were considering plans
for added precautions against providers
in and around the Capitol.
Senator Hale, Republican, of Maine,
acting chairman of the rules committee,
took UP with the sergeant-at-arms the
question of employing additional guards.
1t was pointed out by Deputy Sergeant
at-arms McGrain that legislative action
would be necessary to take on more
men.
Although apparently nothing was
taken from Senator JohnSon's office.
his file cabinets and desks were opened
and disarranged, particularly the file
case containing personal correspondence.
The only definite information developed
during the day was that the time Of
the ransacking was between 1890 am.
and 4:3O am. yesterday morning.
Senator johnson said night janitor re-
ported that everything in the. room was
in order at 1890. An ice man who
reached the room about 1870 told the
authorities he noticed that the files
were open at that time.
Maj. Pratt Notified.
When Senator johnson arrived at his
Office, which is on one of the lower
floors in the central portion of the
Capitol Building, he got In touch with
Maj. Pratt. superintendent of District
police. Detective Sergt. Fred Sandberg,
ilngerprint expert, and another detec-
tive were sent to investigate. They
agreed with the Senator that the ir-
truder or intruders evidently were con-
cerned only in roofing through the cor
rospondence. Although some marks
were observed, the detectives said they
indicated the visitor wore gloves.
Senator johnson said the evidence is
conclusive that my private and personal
correspondence was sought and read"
He added, however, that he had no sus-
picions and no charges to make.
Cigar Ashes Lacking.
The genial California Senator smiled
when associates reminded him Of his
fondness for reading detective stories,
and suggested that he now had myS-
terry Of his own to help solve. The Sena-
tor jokingly remarked that no cigar
ashes had been dropped on the carpet
to serve as a clue. and added:

Court Doesn't Make Laws.
Finally, at this interview. We dis
cussed the La Toilette plan, then under
consideration, to give Congress veto
power over Supreme Court decisions
and President Hardings statement that
New York's repeal of the prohibition en-
forcement law would be notification
of the Constitution.
"The Supreme Court" said the Chief
Justice, doesn't make laws, despite
Battle Bobs' curious theories. 1t merely
interprets the Constitution and passes
upon enacted laws when questions OF
doubt arise. There are two alternatives
after the court has declared law I'M
constitutional: We can change the law
to obviate its constitutional defects or
change the Constitution.
= 1.-The President was INDUCING in loose
talk when he said the repeal Of the
New York law would be notification
of the Constitution. The Constitution,
including the eighteenth amendment,
will continue in force whether this par
ticular law is repealed or not. But 1t
is one thing for the amendment to be
In force and quite another to dignity
1t by enforcement"

Taft wrote to Prof Irving Fisher Of

These latter admit that such swings
about the country are trying; that Taft
and Wilson showed the affects of the

so accustomed to travelling that he will
not be affected in the slightest. 1t
was pointed out that Mr.. Hoover has
