Husband Refuses
Wife's Request

Dear Miss Fairfax:
When we were first married
I was so much in love that I
insisted on doing all the work
in our little five-room bungalow,
even the laundry. It didn't
seem so much for me to do,
but pretty soon children came
we have three now-two girls
and a boy. My husband makes
good wages, and we could afford
to get in help, but I still keep
on doing everything.
Before we were married, he
was all peaches and cream; now
his delight seems to be in pre-
venting me from having any
good times. I am expecting an
other baby soon, and feel If I
don't get a change before long
I may not come through the
ordeal.
My mother wants me to bring
the children and visit her for
two weeks, so that I can have a
rest. But my husband refuses
to give his consent. Then my
mother offered to come and do
nv work and take care Of the
children, but he doesn't think
that is necessary. What would
YOU advise that I do in my case?
TIRED MOTHER.

Suggest Help
In Home

In Home
Why don't you put up the
question Of getting in extra
help. If your husband objects
to your going away, or to having
her come to help you. he should
at least get someone in to help
you. I'd suggest you have the
doctor talk to him, as well.
When woman's health and life
hang in the balance it is no
time to obey a mans whim.
Some men act in this cruel
way without realizing how
utterly unreasonable they are.
Too much authority isn't good
for folks.

Advice to Lovelorn:
Problem of Marriage
Sought BY DamseI
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Copyright, 1898, by King Features Syndicate. Incl

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
~ The boy have going with for long time wants
me to marry him. secretly about the end Of the month and
then each one of us go back home live with parents
This woud nrobablv have be for almost four years.
The Washington times., 1938-09-22


When a girl and boy get mar
ried, they have every right in
the world to live together. Now
if we we're secretly married, we
would have to just be "going
around together" and nothing
more. We'd have disagreements
and this would lead to quarrels,
and it might even make a COM
plete break. I don't want this
to happen. Don't you agree with
me that it's q mistake to marry
and keep 1t secret?
BETTY.
Congratulations, my dear
Betty, on seeing so clearly the
difficulties of a secret marriage.
I've never known one of them
to turn out well, have you? To
keep q marriage secret, "for al
most four years." as you say,
would be most unthinkable.
You will have a much greater
chance of happiness, it seems to
me, if you both save and prepare
for the home you can enjoy
openly together.

Watershed MLenaced
by Flames on Two
Fronts as Fighters Are
Driven Back

Asheville, Nov. lap Roaring
forest fires, tree-top falls that crack
led with ear splitting din drove back
fire-fighterS on two quarter-mile
fronts near here today as fast-speed
ing flames burned through heavily
wooded sectors and threatened tour
ist homes.
After an all-night retreat before the
advancing inferno, on the wooded
slopes of Walkertown ridge, bordering
the city's North Fork watershed, men
battled today with augmented force.
The first front extended along the
Little Piney Branch above Montreal,
about Is miles from here, and was
burning south toward Black Noun
tain. This fiery front threatened the
summer homes of tourists on the
slopes above Montreal and enlisted
the aid of practically every available
man in the fight.
The second front extended along
the slopes of Brushy Knob. A force
of 40 of the city's employees fought
there to protect the Asheville water
shed.

On Republic

Cleveland, Ohio, Nov. 1.-(AP)--A
CIO official said some Republic Steel
Corporation employees elected from
a Republic plant As strikers who were
called back to work under terms of
a recent National Labor Relations
Board order.
B. j. Damich, field director of the
Steel Workers Organizing Commit
tee, asserted the men were driven
from a nut division plant before they
had an opportunity to change their
working clothes. Damich said the up
rising was among employees who did
not participate in the 1897 steel strike,
and declared it was inspired by "hired
gangsters". He said the 46 were re-
turning to work under NI1RB's Oc-
tober 10 ruling which ordered Re-
public to reinstate 5000 participants
in the strike against slittIe steel
The company previously said it was

Because of it's ATTITUDES the Argen

1t sounds attractive. The drawback
is that, of its 100000 inhabitants,
approximately 100000 are concen-

Daladier's
Cabinet Is
threatened
Ministers Split Three
Ways Over Method of
Averting Bankruptcy
of France

Paris, Nov. 1-(AP)-Premier Dala-
der summoned his cabinet again TO-
day to try to end a three-cornerea
dispute over strong measures which
Finance Minister Marchandeau was
said to believe necessary to save
France. from the danger of bank
ruptcy.
The premier asked TIE ministers
who met with him yesterday 70 as
semble, although it was All Saints
day, national holiday.
Political observers said the cabinet
split into three groups, one support
ing the entire Marehandeau program,
one holding it entirely unavoidable,
and the third, including Daladier, op-
posing some of it.
The cabinet kept silent but the
French press said the measures re-
pvolved about for ign exchange, ex-
ceptiona1 income taxes and an eight
percent levy on stock coupons. The
nation faces treasury deficit of co.
0CO,OO0,OOO francs (about $1,59S. 600,

trade balance of 1900, 100000 francs
($335,160,000) for the first nine months
of 1898.
Some political observers said sharp
words were spoken at yesterday s
cabinet session and indicated the
breach on basic financial philosophy
was deep enough to threaten a cab
met breakup.

to restore measure of harmony for
