10 Jane JOrQan, VINO Will nelp you
find a solution.
Dear Jane Jordan-I am the wife of
very fine husband. We have been mar
ried quite while. and have three girls
and one. boy. My husbands sister is the
cause of all our troubles. She Is bust
mes woman and unmarried My husband
has no work and hasn't had for a long
time. She pays all our bills and thinks
she can do as she pleases.
She is about to drive me crazy by
spelling my boy. When. she is here, she
does everything he asks her to do, and
II is hard for me TO keep, still and smile.
He mas strong VIII and thinks he can
know my husband wouldn't put up
with his sister If he. was working. She
knows she ~, has us al eating out Of her
nice little home and nice children. but
Tn SO worried feel like disposing of
myself; just like an old chair,
My boy doesn't care for his sisters,
daddy or mother when she is around.
Shall 1 go home TO mother or divorce
my my husband tRaIMs hate to DO anything like
AN UNHAPPY HOME.
Dear Unhappy Home-There are
situations in life where one can
do nothing but mark time until
something changes. This is the
most difficult thing in the world to
do. 1t has been said that the test
of the morale of an army is it's
ability to stand still and mark time
without knowing exactly what is
going to happen next.
I certainly would not break up a
happy home because of a temporary
trouble. Your husband will not be
out of work forever, and when your
family once more financially is
equal to its own expenses, your
troubles will lift.
In the meantime, I suggest some
diplomatic heart to heart talks with
your husbands sister. Let her know
how grateful you are to her for pay
ing your bills and feeding your chill
dren during these hard times. Your
gratitude will put her in receptive
frame of mind.
Then appeal to her love for the
boy and ask her to help you bring
him up properly. Get some books
on child training at the library and
seek her cooperation in dealing
with the child.
If through kindness and patience
instead of anger and resentment.
you can get her to see that it is not
good for him to be spoiled, she will
change her attitude. She is in the
wrong, of course, and the child is
the victim of her mistaken kindness.
To deal with her intelligently, you
must understand her. A little SYM
pathy on your part would do a lot
toward pouring oil on the troubled
waters. She is maiden lady and
all her pent-up emotions find their
outlet in loving this child of yours.
Handle her carefully and you will
win. Your problem is so compli-
Gated that it is difficult to give a
complete answer in so small a space.
Dear Jane Jordan-Just two years ago
started going out on dates. what /
considered a good time, the rest of the
crowd laughed at. So I started drink

mind a little bit too foggy with LIQUOR

met and fallen in love with a young
man Of q He asked me to marry him
and said yes. We were engaged about

question about my past and told the
truth. He broke the engagement.
Now I've learned that he led plenty

BY ELMER c. wALZER Limited Press Financial Editor

New York, Feb 9.-UP)-Acute weakness and heavy turnover in automobile shares featured the afternoon trading on the stock ex- change to-day. The general list moved downward with these issues but losses were held to small amounts up to the end of the fourth hour.
 A break in Auburn from 108 3-4 to a new low for the year at 97 1-2 off 1-2 from the previous close was the signal for unloading in motor shares generally. Two blocks of 10000 shares each Of General Motors were thrown overheard at 20 and later the stock dipped to 19 7-S off 3-8 with 3-8 of it's rec ord low for the present shares. Packard dipped to 3 1-2 off IA and a new low on a block of 10000 shares followed by another of G. 400 shares. Chrysler made a new low at 10 3-4 off 3-4.
 The drive on motor shares was based on revisions of production estimates for 1892 following publi- cation of the January sales figures of General Motors Corporation which showed drop of per cent from the December total.
 In the case of Auburn various ru- mors were circulated The principal reason for the selling in that issue, however, was the unofficial reports of sharp reduction in production and sales of cars so far this year. Last year the company had a rec ord year for sales and earnings. Traders asserted it's market was now near the saturation point tenn porarily and hence business was slowing down.

appearing for the plaintiff, sought to have an amendment made to the complaint but this was also denied by Judge Peasley. Judge Peasley again denied a motion to continue the case so that an amen- ment to the complaint might be made later. All the time this was happening, the jury was being ex- cused from the court room. They left. and returned from the jury box at least half a dozen times be- fore testimony was started.
 During the course of her testi- mony, the plaintiff broke down on the stand and held a handkerchief to her eyes. She said she was married to Walter C. Clayton, son of the defendants on oct 23, 1915.
 She was very happy with her husband who was devoted to her and wrote faithfully and regularly when he was on the road. Gn his letters to her, read into the records, he spoke of sales commissions he earned while trave1ing in all parts of the east and middle wesD.
 She spoke of her husband be- coming i'll and of his father com ing to New York to see him. She said he wanted his son to come to Waterbury to live where he would get better attention during his illntSs.
 She told of Walters coming to Waterbury and remaining for awhile. When he returned to New York she said he told her they would not live together anymore. She started to cry and dry her eyes with her handkerchief at this point.
 Letters her husband wrote to her from 1916 on, were introduced by her counsel and read before the jury. The letters written in af- fectionate tone were introduced by plaintiffs counsel to show the happy state existing between them. All of the letters were signed, Love and kisses, Walter," with the exception of one, which recalled their eighth anniversary. In this one. written from Rich mond, Va, in 1923, he said the eighth anniversary seemed like eight months since tn cir wedding and that she was still his sweet heart. He added that he hoped they would live many anniversaries and signed with "A million hugs and kisses"

He sistance to any activity of serious public service to which the club turned many 8 time in the years of his membership. In the year of his presidency of this club he presided at the head table with an altertness that kept the club in effective motion at the same time he kept it laughing.

RED CROSS NOW GIVING HELP TO
 UNEMPLOYED

Washington, Feb 9-CUP)-The Red Cross became a factor to-day in the congressional dispute over relief for the destitute. It was re- vealed that local chapters, with occasional aid from the national organizations treasury, are aiding the unemployed in 2,000 counties.
 More than a year ago the Red Cross announced policy of refus- ing to participate in unemployment relief on the ground that it was not disaster arising from causes within the scope of Red Cross op- erations. Some months after Red Cross chapters were informed they could assist the unemployed. Sen- ate supporters of the $375,000,0 Costigan-LaFollett relief bill said to-day that President Hoover has obtained assistance of the United States Chamber of Commerce in his effort to defeat the legislation.

After several unsuccessful starts the s1OO,OOO alienation of affection suit brought against John K. and Annie of Waterbury finally got underway before Judge Frederick M. Peasley and a jury in the su- perior court this morning. The ac- ton is brought by Mary Elizabeth Clayton, of New York city, against MT and Mrs Clayton. MT Clayton is the former well-known jeweler.
 The plaintiff is seeking to re- cover on the grounds that the de- fendants alienated the love and affection of her husband, Walter c. Clayton, son of the defendants, to such a degree that he abandon ed her in 1930.
 The plaintiff took the stand this morning and started to relate cer- tain conversations that were held in 1916 between her and the de- fendants. On motion of Attorney Clayton l.. Klein, counsel for the defendants, the testimony was stricken from the records on the grounds that it was not set up Tn the complaint.
