woman but who gives all Of his time
and money and thoughts to every one
except his family? What's a wife to
do with a husband who brings her
home from their bridal tour and dumps
her down into an apartment or q vine
wreathed cottage. then goes OF ana
leaves her to spend the evenings read
ing an improving book, while he Is Of
playing pool or foregathering some
where with his old pals?

WHATS a wife to do with & hus-
band who is joiner, who be-
longs to so many clubs and Is chair
man Of so many committees and has
to go to so many public dinners that
he has no time at all to go anywhere
at all with her? And what's a woman
to do with husband who heads every
subscription list and can always be de-
pended upon for donation when they
are. raising funds for a present to the
boss or to send a floral offering to the
hhchicii o Udll WllCil biic ClluuItI1 ldCk
shoes and they are behind with the
rent money? A wife Just can't walk
out on husband because he is civic
minded and public-spirited. no matter
how much she is tempted to do so.
And another problem husband is the
tightwad whose wife has to Jimmy
every nickel out of him and who makes
her feel that she is a CRATER every
time she asks for market money. Still
another problem husband Is the crouch
who sends the temperature Of his home
down to zero when he puts his foot in
side the door. And still another is the
nagger who finds fault with every
thing his wife does.
What are wives to do with husbands
like these? Leave them? But that
isn't easy to do ,'hen there are chill
dren to be considered. and besides 30
marvellous is woman's ability to love
the unlovable that many wives hearts
cling to the husbands who make them
miserable. Oh, yes, there is a problem
husband all right, lots of them.

Eve was the original discoverer of the
critter, and every woman who has
married since the beginning Of time
has ascertained by experience that she
was united to the great insoluble
riddle that she could never guess. As
an old colored friend Of mine once said
to me when recounting her matri-
monial adventures, Husbands Is the
most undiscovered nation of people
there is
When we speak Of problem hus-
bands, however, the general assump-
ton Is that we refer to drunkards and
libertines, brutes and the shiftless and
lazy gentry who marry to get wives to
support them. Not at all. Husbands
like these offer no problem. The issue
Is clear-cut for their wives. They can
either take 'em or leave 'em, according
to their taste in sots and philanderers
and wife-beaters.
The real problem husband Is the
man who has 30 much that Is fine and
lovable in his nature that his wife
cannot give him up and yet possesses
such faults and weaknesses that he is
almost impossible to stand. He is like
. once-fine party dress that Is too
good to throw away and not good
enough to keep. She can't bear to
cast him out because he represents the
pink chif1ons Of her youth, yet she
finds 1t hard to endure the sackcloth
and ashes into which he has turned
her life. So the poor wife doesn't
know what to do She doesn't even
know what she wants to do.

CHIEF among the problem husbands
Is the man who just can't get
along in the world. He Is intelligent.
He isn't lazy. But he hasn't the gift
for money making. He can never keep
. job When he works it is to no pur-
pose. His Judgment is always faulty.
And he wouldn't see an opportunity If
1t not only knocked at his door but
also battered his house down. As a
husband he is good and kind and If he
had money he would be generous with
1t, but he Is always stony broke. The
children are undernourished and lack
the medical care they should have.
The wife is shabby and spends her
days standing OF bill collectors and
wheedling . little more credit from
the grocer.
Very often the man who has no
business ability is married to q woman n
who is . born go-getter. She could
pilot him from Poverty Flat to Easy
Street If he would only follow her sd-
vice and let her run things, but his
vanity will not let him do that. What
shall the wife do who has that sort
OF husband7 Shall she break his
heart and kill the last Of his pride by
pushing him to one side and herself
become the bread winner? Or shall
she starve along with him and take
handouts from her family and wear
their castoff clothes?
Another problem husband Is the man
who Is, a. the old French proverb
puts it, "the sorrow Of the home and
the JOY Of the street" A wife can
divorce . husband who Is q skirt
chaser. but what Is she to do about a
husband who never looks 1T another

A DULTS who insist on playfully
acting like children every once in
, while should mind their step in
front of their growing offspring. We
understand from girl in her teens
that there's nothing more painful to
her than watching her elders act up.
She just shrivels up inside and wishes
chat they were somebody elses elders.
When her father gets to twirling
around the living room rug with her
mothers hat on his head she could
Just die. And when her mother starts
showing off how we'll she has learned
10 do the shag the poor daughter has
to 60 into the garage and pound nails
Tor an hour before she can control
herself.
1t seems shame for mother and
father to have to curb their high
spirits that way. But 'tween-age chill
dren are funny. They seem to have
strange notion that every one who
Is parent should be dignified. So
probably the easiest way out is for
parents to try to uphold the honor
OF parenthood in front of their chill
dren. JEAN.

FOR ARREST

NEW YORK.-Col. Kenneth E.
Clayton-Kennedy, engineer and oil
promoter, has accepted $32, 500 in
settlement of a 100000 suit he
had brought in Supreme Court
against former business associates
charging them with falsely caus-
ing his arrest in Canada several
years ago. The compromise was
made as trial of his suit was about
to enter its sixth day.
At the time of his arrest Colonel
Kennedy was president of the
American Hydrocarbon Company
and an officer of its Canadian
subsidiary. Norman P. S. SchloSs,
his attorney, charged that the ar
rest was arranged to prevent
Colonel Kennedy from attending
a meeting of the subsidiary in
Canada.
Following his arrest for alleged
~ Incorporating funds Of the
company, Colonel Kennedy was
convicted, but the verdict was re-
versed on appeal by the Canadian
courts. Colonel Kennedy charged
that the money he was accused OF
taking was his salary.
There were 10 defendants in the
suit, but only three contributed
funds toward the settlement. All
were formerly associated with the
American or Canadian ventures Of
American Hydrocarbon Company.

FUNDS
TO ROOSEVELT
STRESSED


A declaration by Senator van
Nuys CD Of Indiana, that PreSi'
dent Roosevelt had been given Is
times as much money to spend at
his discretion as all other PreSi-
dents in American history, today
served to strengthen the Senate
battle to earmark funds in the ST.
500 ,OOO, 900 relief bill.
Van Mugs reported Mr.. Roose-
welt had been given SIS, 428, DOC, 900
in his first administration to spend
at his discretion. He compared
this with the 81 ,687 600, 900 in dis
cretionary funds turned over TO
all other Presidents, from Wash.
ington to Hoover, which included
four great war periods.
Battle Under Way
The battle to earmark funds In
the relief bill was started before
a Senate appropriations subcom'
mittee, where WPA Administrator
Harry l. Hopkins appeared for
the second day to explain the
proposed relief appropriations.
He was convinced the $500, 000,-
600 would be sufficient for the
coming fiscal year, which starts
July /, If business conditions con-
tinued to improve.
Administration leaders hope to
have the relief measure enacted
before either side attempts to
force Senate consideration Of the
Presidents Supreme Court bill.
Opponents of the court plan
threaten to call up the measure
within the next 10 days. They
warned debate would last two
months unless the measure was
withdrawn by the President.
Must Rush Relief Bill
This put the Administration on
notice that it must rush enact
.ment Of the relief bill. Any pro-
:longed delay would strip the Ad-
miniStration of relief funds and
bring to a halt all Federal aid
to the unemployed.
There was strong support in the
subcommittee for earmarking of
relief funds, particularly to con-
