MILLER
WRITES

(For the Literary Service Bureau)
Make Miller: | am married and
%. My husband does not make en-
ough to take care of me like he
should and like he wants to do.
Now 1 have offered to me a job in
an office, and my husband objects.
The man is a settled man and while
the girls who worked for him say
he gets fresh with them, | think I
can take the job | am thinking of
to take the job. I am thinking of
taking it anyhow, but my husband
says it will mean a smash-up. What
do you think I ought to do? Should
| let the smash come and go on and
make my own living? Tell me-
Sylvia.
Sylvia: To do what you think of
doing would be very foolish and
l am sure you would regret it.
perhaps when it would be too late
to undo what had been done. You
owe it to your husband to make
out with the best he can do until
circumstances improve If this man
is the kind you intimate, and if
you should give up your husband
to work for him, perhaps he would
use you, tire of you, and drop you
with no means of support No Syl-
via, better hold to what you have.

What Russia Discovered
Abo tions in America cause
about eight thousand deaths and
thousands of cases of invalidism
yearly. This has been thought due
to the unsanitary conditions under
which unlawful abortions are per-
formed here. In Soviet Russia, I'M

the most favorable conditions, in
hospitals established solely for this
Women were given two weeks vaca-
ton fjom work and in no case over
two months and a half was admit
ted. What were the results?
Abortions, they found, were de-
finitely bad for women. Unless
ideal circumstances prevail and a
long rest of weeks assured, the
woman invariably suffers disturb
ances and even stirlity. Abortions
are no longer legal in Russia, al
though birth control information
is, as it should be here.
Fertility
Childlessness used to be blamed

SERNONEwE
By Arthur b Rhinow
lFor the Literary Service Bureau.

Three men were recently taken
to the hospital after a furious
fight all tn ee were bleeding, AMI
one was carried into the ambul-
ance with a knife in his hand. They
were given expert attention, and
probably none of them Will die.
But what was the fight about ?
Some questions of religious fan
atheism, such as has agitated hui
manity for eenuries, or a family
fued existing through generations,
or a deeply Injured personal pride?
No, kind reader. We are reliably
informed that the battle was caus-
ed by a dispute over which one G.
the three was to pay for a five
cent bottle of soda water. We have
a suspicion that something strong
er than soda water entered into
the argument, but whether that
was so O. not, we know the bone of
contention was "a financial obliga-
ton amounting to a nickel.
Men like that live a small life.
They have little sense of relative
values. Justice and injustice may
be involved in the payment of five
cents, but they that have learned
to appreciate the higher values of
life are not easily disturbed by lit
tie losses. They know they may
be rich though circumstances or
the dishonest dealing of others
them poor in purse. They
have wealth that cannot be taken
from them. Their life is the more
life, They do not merely
see the green sprouts of spring;
they see the mi 'acle-

A WORD FROM A READER

Mr.. C. C. Galloway
Omaha, Nebraska
My dear Sir and Friend:

can be read with interest, and l
am very sure if readers follow

ed on present issues, as we'll as
historical facts.
| am assured that your very val
liable publication is filling a great
place in the program Of that COM

I bespeak for you, and company
the best possible success.
Will you please tender our best

LYNCH PROPAGANDA

The Nationa Association for the Advancement of Colored
People flies a flag over Fifth Avenue, New York 1t is inscribed
pa Man Was Lynched Yesterday y It will be flown after every
gnching no matter where it occurs.
This kind of thing may be resented on some grounds, but
it is not to be ignored. It may needlessly arouse sectional pre-
iudices. Some Northern communities don't need telling that
Iynchlaw is deplorable. They have long been convinced on that
point, and are rather vain about it. Some of the others are no
better in this respect than the South.
Campaigning against ~lynching in other parts of the coun-
try strengthens the advocates of Federal lynchlegslation. A
good case against such legsltion can't be made unless it can
be shown that individual states are able and determined to stop
Iynching without federal authority to do so.

Can Such Things Be?

You think, doubtless, that the
government would not let big drug
men steal your money and ruin
you, health this way. But that is
because you are naive and don't
know that the United States has
no adequate food and drug laws.
All laws pertaining to these items
were wrlten for the benefit of the
manufacturers and not to protect
consumers The more you investi-

sUpREMECOURT NOT AN ISSUE

The Supreme Court hasn't been an issue in the campaign
those who thought the President would speak in favor of meas
ures limiting the tribunals powers were mistaken. Likewise, the
Court has been on a vacation and out of the headlines. But
when it convenes again it will pass on a number of vital meas
ures. On the docket is the new Frazier-Lemke Farm Mortgage
Moratorium law. The first law was declared unconstitutional
the new law was designed to overcome the legal objections.
Opinion is that it too will be thrown out.

Number Gambling

Recently the New York police has been
very active in its effort to suppress number
gambling. With all the raids and the indict
ments the people of New York continue to
play the numbers. It has become part Of
the life of the people. They dream about
the policy game and numbers; they
seek the Interpretation of their dreams in
dream books issued by the POLICY Kings"
Residents of Harlem coming to st. Croix
continue to have dreams about numbers,
they write to their friends In Harlem to
purchase the numbers advised In their =
dreams. People kwho have never lived in
New York also send up little money to
try thair luck"
To eradicate thing that has taken such
grip upon the people is a difficult task. 1t
is like the attempt to enforce prohibition
upon liquor-loving public
Presumably because of the impossibility
of compelling even the semblance of res
pect for the law Attorney Wilson is sug-
costing to legalize number gambling. But
here is what one newspaper, The New
York News says about Mr.. Wilson's sug>
gestion:
Assistant United States District Attor-
ney James j Wilson did himself nor the
mon people any credit in his speech asking
the government to place number gambling
on the same basis with stock brokerage. He
declared that the policy gambler is no moro
q criminal than the stock broker gambler.
There he is right. It is loose and danger
Gus thinking for any leader, however, and
especially for any official of the law to con.
done gambling of any kind. The govern
ment Furnishes the bucket shop promoter
because he is gambler. The sale, however,
of stocks and bonds in the industries and
the commodities of the nation is not only
legitimate but vital to the business and
industry of the entire nation. Without the
sale. the great businesses of the country,

This will give the homesteader better

 Greens execution came in the face of agitation in Utah for the ab- olition of the firing squad. Even in Utah, only state using the method, 1t is an optional way to die accord- ed to prisoners who do not wish to die by hanging. The sentence was given Green by Judge Eugene F. Pratt of Pennington when the slayer refused to talk in court. His only explanation for the staying was "they bothered me-" The victims were his uncle, James Green, his young wife and his mother-in-law.
 Green was the 2lst prisoner killed by the state of Utah since 1t came into the union in 1006. Twenty have died by the firing squad of i've men. One chose to hang because it was more expensive" All last night two guards stood death watch outside Greens cell. Earlier Greens two sis- ters. his brother and others visited him.

 LOSES HIS CASE

Miami Fla, July 10. (UP)-Lewis Mallory III 22-year-old Bradford. Pa, heir, today planned an appeal from jury award of $35,00O to James Edgar, Detroit manufactur- CT, whose wife's affections Mallory was found to have alienated.
 A jury of six married men re- ported its verdict in circuit court late last night after debating for six hours Edgar's suit for $300,OOO on the claim that Mallory stole the love of his film actress wife, Kath- ryn Crawford.
 The verdict found only that Mall lory had alienated Miss Crawford's affections, and did not rule on the question of whether he seduced her in @ Miami hotel before she di- vorced Edgar last June.
