the companionship Of a wife, the joy
of children and the comforts Of
home to his other blessings. But
when q woman marries, no matter
how gifted she Is, nor how much time
and money she has spent preparing
herself for a career, she has to give
it up if she expects to be a successful
wife and mother. She has to put
aside her dreams and hopes and ex-
change the platform for the kitchen
and the plaudits Of the multitude for
the grumbling of husband who isn't
satisfied because she knows more
about law or medicine or acting or
singing than she does about cooking.
MOT many men have to sacrifice
their personal and financial in
dependence when they marry, but
most women do. Only . few hen
pecked men have to ask their wives
permission to buy a new suit. or join
a club, or take q trip, but the vast
ma ajority Of wives have to consult their
husbands before they can even 60 to
see their mothers.
With marriage q woman also gen.
orally renounces her financial free
dom. She swaps q job that has q
pay envelope for a harder one at
which she works just for her board
and clothes, and those such as her
boss sees fit to give her. There would
not be many weddings If q man knew
that his wife would take all the re-
suits of his labor, as he takes hers,
and only dole him out a quarter or SO
for carfare after she has made hin,
ask for 1t.
Marriage Is full of sacrifices for
both men and women and the worth
while of both sexes are willing to
make them. But it is not the men
who get the worst Of the matrimonial
bargain. The family goat is Just as
often named Nanny as Billy.

love their husbands even after they
have become unlovable, forgive the
unforgivable in them, and who consid-
er that when they have given all that
they are and have to marriage they
have put as much into the domestic
partnership as has the male member
of the firm.
Furthermore, it will pique their Gu

Wits that men bring to marriage, for
observation and experience has led
them to believe that most men con-

this attitude toward marriage among
men that any husband who goes do

Hamilton Sees Win
John D. M. Hamilton, the ener-

not so sweeping in his claims, al
though he yielded no whit to Far
ley in his confidence as to the
outcome. Hamilton said Governor
Landon would have minimum Of
800 electoral votes, which would
be 81 above the necessary 266.
He claimed every State east Of
the Mississippi and north Of the
Ohio, and enough West and Far
West States to furnish the re-
quired number.
AS for the principals themselves,

Mr.. Roosevelt likes to outguess

In this particular case, Mr..
Roosevelt told this friend he be-
lieved his reelection was assured.

day night was born of that con-
fidence. But at the same time
he is realistic about it, and Jim

not bind him to the realities.

WARN AGAINST FRAUDS
From their respective headquar-
tiers in Chicago and New York, the
rival generalissimos, Hamilton and
Farley, spent hours today on the
long distance telephone, getting
reports from every section and is
suing final instructions. Like their
principals, both urged local leaders
everywhere to exert maximum eff
forts to get the vote to the polls,
and to this they AIDED their own
warnings to guard against fraud
at various points.
Estimates of the vote varied all
the way from a maximum Of 49,
100000 to 100000 900. These were
based upon an approximate regis,
tration of 100000. But exper-
fence has shown that the actual
vote usually falls from 10 to IS
or 20 per cent below the regiStra-
tions. In any event, the vote will
be a record-breaker, well eclipsing
the 1882 vote of just under 100000
600.

The actual registration totals
81, S92, 800. From this Simon Mich
elet Of the National Get-Out-And-
Vote Club, estimates a turnout Of
46,041, 500 voters.
The previous all-time voting rec
ord was in 1882, when, in spite of
bad weather in many sections, the
total turnout was 39,806,783.
Leaders of both parties last
night agreed this new-vote total
is sufficient to swing the election
one way or the other. Reports to
both parties show a heavy array
of States in the Middle West and
East where the present election
situation is extremely close.
In any of these the increased
vote tomorrow is more than
enough to swing the victory.
AS an example, the total vote in
New York State in 1882 was ap-
proximately 100000, and Presi-
dent Roosevelt carried the State
by slightly less than 600, 900 votes.

MILAN, Italy, Nov. 2. GN4S0.
A new course towards armed
peace" as seen from Italy's gun
turrets, lay mapped out for Eur
ope today, traced by Premier
Mussolini's bayonet point.
In q speech sizzling with chal-
lengeS and bitter phrases, MuSSo-
lini brought Europe abruptly face
to face with reality" but offered
the Italian German treaty as the
basis for a new delineation Of
European forces.
Europe and America heard
1taly's foreign policy outlined on
the radio, and 100000 before
Milan Cathedral roared angrily at
references to England, noisily
called for the death of the League
of Nations, and pledged themselves
to fight for Italy's empire.
Premier MusSolini offered
friendly aid to Italy'S neighborS,
but warned Britain that Italy'S
rights in the Mediterranean must
be respected, said "the time has
come to end" Bolshevism, and pro-
nounced disarmament "impoS-
sible."
Possibility of War
Grimly referring to the posi-.
bility of war between Italy and
Britain, Mussolini implied such a
conflict would spread through
Europe, saying:
"A bilateral clash would be
unthinkable. A bilateral clash
would soon become q European
war;"
Etching Italy's new foreign
policy with the points of S,0O0,000
Fascist bayonets, II Duce evoked
roars Of approval from 100000
massed followers here when. in a
blast obviously aimed at Soviet
Russia, he branded BolsheviSm as

In a cold fury that fairly
choked his words, the Italian die
tator declared:

were born under this flag. We
fought under it.

and Communism is only q form

One by one, Mussolini arraigned
1taly'S potential enemies in the
European war he has declared to
be inevitable" but he bid the
Western powers to join his coun-
try and Nazi Germany in a COM
mon struggle against BolsheviSm.
II Duce did not reveal the steps
he believes necessary to lend"
communism, BUT his words were
interpreted as a warning that Italy
and Germany are now ready to re-
sist by force any attempt by Soviet
Russia to rush armed assistance
to SPANS Communist government
in the Spanish civil war.
Dream Of Missionaries
In the bitterest language he has
ever used in a public address,
MuSSolini guillotined the Leagues
program of collective security as
an "idealistic dream of impracti-
cal visionaries," and added:
"Civilized peoples seek their
own peace behind fortified from

Mother COnfeSSeS
Hoax in Story of
Miracle Baby

SLIDELL, La, Nov. 13 Q.N.SO.
The persistent questioning Of in
credulous city folk today had
b! vn UP the story Of the "miracu-
lous arrival of little Moses" told
by Mrs. Effie Crawford.
The two-day-old baby boy, the
woman had told her guileless
neighbors, was brought to her
cabin by a huge brindle bulldog
which then scampered off into the
woods.
Today the woman admitted the
baby was hers, born to her back
OF the woodshed in the rear Of
her tumble-down cabin, 10 miles
from here, at II o'clock Sunday
night while she was alone.
She accused another man of be-
ing the father and said she fabri-
Gated the miracle" story to dis
arm her husband, Louis Crawford,
WPA laborer.
Mrs. Crawford said her admiS-
sion of the hoax was prompted by
her desire to gain possession of the
baby boy, now in a New orleans
Hospital.
She cried:
"I'll submit to any test to
prove maternity"
Her earlier story was readily be-
lieved in this naturally supersti-
tious community and the Crawford
cabin was a mecca for the curious
who flocked to see the miracle
baby"
Louis Crawford said today he
would stand by his wife in her
fight for return of the child from
the New orleans charity hospital,
where it was taken by court order
after officials began investigation
of the strange story.
