two fathers and two mothers and
l can't live with either one. Par
ents are divorced and both are
married again. l can't live with
my mother because I'm good

Mamie Jones: Certainly you are
entitled to sympathy and you do
need advice. My advice is that
you try to finish your education.
Talk the matter over with your
parents and see if they won't help
you. At school you will be away
from your home problems. Then
you'd have a chance to get a good
husband of the best type. If this
cannot be done, have a heart-to-
heart talk with your father and
see il he will not help make pro-
vision for you to live elsewhere,
and help you to ecu employ

M. ID. S.-Would it be wise for
me to leave my husband who won't
support me?
Ans; 1t would not only be I'M
wise but a very foolish move on
your part. This admirer of yours
doesn't really mean it when he
says he will give you things your
HUSBAND CAN'T. You can bet
your boots that you will have to

you advise some way out of it?
Ans: Shedding tears won't

must learn to work together. You

foolishly. The year of 1886 will
be very good to you providing you

John Brophy, of Washington, D. C., director of the committee for industrial organization, will speak at a mass meeting in Waterbury, Sunday, October 4, at the Work mans Circle hall. The meeting is sponsored by the City Brass Work ers' Union No. 25l and its parent body, the International Union of Mine, Mil and Shelter Workers and will begin at 2:30 p. m.
 The C. I. O: of which the Mine, NH and Shelter Workers Union is a member, is headed by dynamic John L. Lewis and has for its pur- pose the organizing of all workers engaged in the mass production in- duStries of America under a vertical plan of organization. The present plan of the American Federation of Labor of organizing by crafts has in the past failed to do this. Latest reports show that the committee for industrial organization is mak- ing much progress all over the United States as well as in Canada. This is especially true of the cam. paign to organize the steel workers which created such furor at its inception.
 Brass workers, as well as those interested in the present industrial labor movement are invited to ate tend the meeting. There will be other speakers on the same pro- gram. John Brophy will come to Waterbury from New Haven where he is scheduled to speak before Foundation Day program of the National Religion and Labor Foun- dation which has for its executive secretary.

Pointing to the wreckage that faced President Roosevelt when he took office in March, 1883, and to the present day picture of happier domestic life and more employment, Congressman J. Joseph Smith of this city last night over Station WATR propounded the issues of the pres ent campaign and urged support of the democratic administration in Novemberis polling. Tonight at 6:l5 o'clock Congressman Smith will again talk over WATR, the second of . series of five evening ad- dresses on the broadcast system of ''the voice of Waterbury"
 Congressman Smith last night de- clared that while President Roose- welt was swept into office three and one-half years ago the record of his administration was over- whelmingly endorsed in the 1884 election when he was given added power in the house and in the sen. ate.
 Lost Hope
 T need not remind you of the wreckage that faced President Roosevelt in March, 1933," declared Congressman Smith, Paralysis had spread over our entire economic 1 system. Willions of workers and farmers had lost hope of earning living. Drastic measures were necessary. The biennial census of manufacturers shows that in Con- necticut alone wage-earners em- ployed increased from 183,O00 in 1893 to an average of 226,000 in 1895 and wages in Connecticut plants increased from 157 million dollars to 22S million dollars in the same period, an increase of 45 per cent. In Waterbury alone, 4,00O more workers aree mployed today than at this time last year, 10000 more than in 1933."
 Congressman Smith called atten- tion to the Wagner Labor Relations act, the -Healey act, the NRA and the 40-hour week bill for postal employees, explaining that all of the measures were designed and enacted at then instance of Presi- dent Roosevelt to aid the working man.
 Humane Record
 Contrast the humane record of our great president with that of his opponent" stated Congressman Smith. Governor Landon is op- posed by the labor organization of Kansas for his failure, in spite of their pleading. to sponsor a mini mum wage law for women and chil- dren in Kansas, or t ospcnsor any
