A Woman s Viewpoint
by MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

that father and mother are not
one upon every question. Cross
words, criticism, arguments should
be taboo in every home where the
interest of the child is paramount.
What an idea! That kind of
unnatural sentiment makes any
average individual want to go out
Immediately and pick good fight
with somebody. Yet it is the
sort of taffy we forever are spout
ing for the edification of the
youngsters, all of whom are too
smart to be fooled by it.
The endeavor to build homes
in which you are not at liberty to
express honest convictions for
fear you will incite your children
to riot or revolution is just an
other of the ridiculous cul-de-Sacs
we have been led into by modern
education. The only way out is
it jump over wall. So here
goes. I think a good family spat
is a fine way to cement family
respect and affection. Let the
chilrden hear mama call papa "a
grouchy old four-flusher." Let
papa cut loose and tell mama
she's an unreliable and catty per-
son with a martyr complex.
Chances are the chilrden have
been thinking the same thing
themselves. Posing before ones
young is the worst crime, and GER
tainly these copy-book maxims
are so much camouflage, as we
all know. Honesty is the best
policy at home, too.

sufficient reason to drive from
home any Self-reSpecting individ-
ual. A domestic atmosphere in
which each member of the family
fell morally obliged to agree with
all the others would be more
conducive to murder than moral
ity. And, I daresay, many of the
ruthless and rapacious rugged in
dividuals of former generation
came from homes over which papa
ruled as the Lords deputy and
mama and the children were mere
sounding boards echoing his opin-

Confusion naturally arises over
the meaning of the words quarrel
and disagreement. 1t is possible
for two persons to disagree with
out quarreling, since quarreling is
a matter of disposition and disa-

procedure.
A woman's page can be only &C.
casionally and accidentally helpful
to a man. Editors of such pages
are forced, eX-of1cio, to direct ad-
vice toward the problems that be-
set wives, not husbands. If a
crumb or two of our thought ap-
peals to man he is quite welcome
to it. But why should men have to
poach in order to get assistance
with their special difficulties?
1t is one of our flrmeSt convic-
tons that every newspaper should
possess mans page, in which the
men might find advice on the more
delicate matters of human con-
duct.
True, men have already a stran-
glehold on the sports and financial
sections, which are directed, very
largely, to them. True, much of
the news is edited toward their in
terests.
But what feature in a modern
newspaper tells the young man
about to propose, how to go about
it? Or whether he should see the
father first? Or whether, indeed,
he ought not to drop the whole
idea? Men, I regret to tell you,
none.
Male Style Problems
There are problems of fashion
which occur in a mans life as in
evitably as in a woman's. In the
last few years, for instance, we have
seen a striking case.
Formerly young New Workers
spent large part of their income
getting suits whose coat and trcu-
sers were made of the same cloth.
Then a few depression-Struck Eng
lishmen came over with brown
coats and gray trousers, because
they could not afford to wear any
thing except the 1eft-overs of their
wardrobe, regardless. What hap
pened?
Young New Workers now spend
enormous sums buying suits with
brown coats and gray trousers.
young man to know So it is i'm
portant to him to understand how

cocktail shaker There are more
men amateur cooks in New York
today who ought never to be let
near saucepan than it is comfort
able to think about. Where do they
turn for their information? Yes.
Mr.. Boyd, to the woman'S page.
Forced to Trespass
There is a curious convention
among newspaper owners that men
are never cooks or parents or con-
cerned over their dress. There is
an even stranger theory that they
are always poised and resourceful
in matters of the heart. 1t is only
the women, it seems, who need a
few tips in such matters as these.
Well, Ernest Boyd has let that cat
out of the bag. The men, having
no little reservation of their own,
are looking over our shoulders and
absorbing information meant en-
tirely for their wives.
AS a matter of self-protection-
as a gesture of feminine trades
unionisn-it is strongly urged that
the women of this country insist
that men have their own pages to
read.
They will not then learn so many
of our secrets. And maybe we
can pick up a few of theirs.

Bruno Richard Hauptmann has been

vealed late today, as the mysterious
stranger who was seen lurking on the
HopeWell estate of Col Charles A.
Lindbergh bare fortnight before the
famous flyers infant son was kid

On the heels of this unexpected
announcement came word that Col

State to testify in Pennington Mon

So far as is known, Willard White
head was the first witness New Jersey
has to place the former German ma

scene of the century's most sensa-

Whitehead had favorable conditions
under which to observe the prowler

vince the public that the Lindbergh
case had been solved, Foley said:
Il will not comment on the MUIR
der and kidnapping angle. That is a
matter entirely with the New Jersey
authorities.
Davis Report Denied.
A report that John w. Davis, prom
inent New York attorney, would rep
resent New Jersey in extradition pro-
ceedings was denied at Davis Office
and by Attorney General Wilentz.
James M. Fawcett, Hauptmann's
lawyer, announced he had retained
William A. Martin as a private detec-
tive to hunt down those persons re-
sponsible in the extortion and kidnap-
ing cases involving the child of Col.
Charles A. Lindbergh"
Martin, he said, had authority to
take on as many assistants as neces-
sary, and was to make reports to the
Department of Justice.
Fawcett conferred today with DR..
James A. Huddleson, defense alienist,
and obtained a copy of his report
He also conferred with Wilentz and
asked permission of the New Jersey
authorities for Aaron R. Lewis, hand
writing expert, to examine and photo

the case.
During the day Fawcett said he
