Dorothy Dix Says
Husbands Aversion to Illness
Often Causes Him to Straw

Dear Miss Dix-Three years ago
I married man who seemed very
much in love with me. We both
continued to work and in addition
to my work outside of the home I
kept house and made him a pleasant
home. When he lost his job, 1 stood
by and supported the family and did
everything possible to buck him up.
Then came the baby. I almost died
and my health was so shattered that
for some time all I could do was
just to crawl around the house and
look after the baby as well as
could and as we couldn't afford a
maid some things had to go un-
done. During this time my hus-
band started treating me very coldly.
He was hours late in coming home
and had nothing to say to me when
he did come. I found out that he
was running around with a young
girl. Now I have recovered my
health and my husband appears to
have recovered his interest in me,
but his conduct killed something in
me. feel that he let me down when
1 needed him most. He didn't stand
by me as I had stood by him and
I feel that I can never love or trust
him again as I did. have lost all
confidence in him. Do you think I
should go on living with him with
this awful truth staring me in the
face? DESERTED,
Answer-1f all the wives whose
husbands have roamed away from
their sickbeds got divorces, there
would scarcely be an intact home
in the length and breadth of the
land. For men, taking them by and
large, have a great repugnance to
illness unless they have it them
selves. When at the altar they swear
to love and cherish in sickness and
in health the women they are taking
for wives, they do it with a mental
reservation that they will pass the

II am for John Garner"

creating federal court budget Of
ficer. At that time he boasted that
all detectives of the 1887 court re-
organization plan had been accom-
plished despite the plans defeat as
an entity. Next day he charged con-
gress' defeat of his neutrality and
lend-spend legislation was leading
business over a precipice. On the
third day he created sensation
by warning he would bolt the Demo-
cratic party in 1910 if the conven-
ton decided on conservative :.
or lip-service candidates" and a
"straddlebug platform"
This served to produce 1910 fore
casts from previously silent sources.
Nebraska's Sen. Edward r. Burke
predicted the President would or
ganize and lead new .'liberal' par
ty. He also thanked Mr.. Roosevelt
for bringing about such realign-
ment, terning the present labels
Democrat" and Republican" as
"an offense to the intelligence of the
electorate"
Most sensational development,
however, came from the Presidents
own house leader, Texas Rep. Sam
Rayburn. Probably smelling par
ty rift, he wired this reply to a
query by the Fort Worth Star-Tele-
gram: 'I am for that outstanding
Texan and liberal Democrat, John
N. Garner, for the presidential NOM
nation in 1910, believing that if
elected he will make a great
President"
Meanwhile, North Dakota's Re-
publican Sen. Gerald Nye saw that
a Roosevelt drift toward super-lib-
eralism meant that all parties must
follow suit in modified fashion. Said
he: "If the Republican party is 60
ing to get anywhere in 1910 it has
got to make up its mind that its
candidate and platform are going to
have to be forward-looking and pro-
gressive. Both will have to :.
maintain and improve some of the
advances established under
the New Deal" e'e
Another voice, that Of Minnesota's
Farmer-Laborite Sen. Ernest Lun-
deem: ''If the A. F. of L. and
C. I. o. would get together they
would hold the 1910 election in the
palm Of their hand. The farm vote
would swing in and they could
march right into the White House."

EUROPE:
Another Munich?

One fear long entertained but lit
tie discussed by France and Britain
is that Danzig might simply and
peacefully declare its union with
Germany. If Poland then went to
war, she would be labeled as an
aggressor. This crafty scheme has
been brewing in Adolf Hitler's mind
ever since it became apparent that
German force in Danzig would be
met by NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. force.
But originally it was Benito Mus
solini's idea, for a conflict over Dan
zig would enmesh Italy just as a
war over Sudetenland would have
brought similar consequences last
autumn. Already tired of aiding
Germany's ACKNOWLEDGMENT at the
risk of their own necks, rank-and-
file Italians were about ready to

Coming up soon is even bigger
script news. In Washington, Geor-
gia's Sen. Richard B. Russell Jr.
made known a certificate PLAN he
will introduce at the next session of
congress to solve the farm problem.
Its gist:
The secretary of agriculture would
give growers certificates covering
their allotted portion of a normal
domestic crop. For example, cot
ton grower who got 200 pounds from
each of his 10 acres over the pre-
vious five-year average, would get
certificates for that part of his 1000
pounds which is ordinarily sold do
mestically. To purchase this cotton,
domestic buyers must also buy the
certificates, paying for them the diff
ferential between the market price
and parity price. If the parity price
were Is cents and cotton sold at 10
cents, certificates would cost five
cents pound.
Biggest advantage Of the plan is
that it lifts the burden of parity
payments from government SnOuI-
ders. Disadvantages: Q) 1t is
merely a disguise for unpopular
processing taxes, and would ulti-
mately raise costs to consumers; (2)
it still leaves the export problem
unsolved.
Other farming news:
d Revised and extended to July 81,
1910, was the wheat export subsidy
program. Under the old plan, gov
ernment-purchased wheat was sold
to exporters. New plan: Export
ers will buy wheat direct from mills
and elevators, seek a foreign mar
ket and advise the agricultural de-
partment how much subsidy they
need to finance the export.
q Corn crop estimates were placed
at 2,450, 1888, 900 bushels, or Ill, 000,-
600 bushels under the previous
months estimate. Reason: Hot
and dry weather. Meanwhile win
ter wheat estimates rose from 547,-
$1,000 bushels to 50,710,000.

ECSTASY TO BE
SHOWN TONIGHT

The uncensored version of the
motion picture Ecstasy" will be
shown might at II o'clock at the
Monroe Theatre in the first of
two midnight performances.
Ecstasy is the film that was
originally banished by the U. S.
Government. It was produced in
Czechoslovakia and is in English
with beautiful music. The film
has had a hectic career through
out the entire world. 1t is frank
and to the point.
Hedy Lamar, the star of the
picture, has received praise from
Max Reinhardy, who labels her
as ''The Lovliest Girl in Europe.
Ecstasy" is her first motion pic
ture, and from present indica-
tons it will be her last, for her
husband, Fritz Mandel, president
of Austria's Nuremberg Ammuni-
ton Works, is determined that
she shall not appear in any other
motion picture, and is making
every endeavor throughout Eu-
rope as well as America to buy
up all copies of Ecstasy.
1t is said that Miss LAMAR gives
one of the most poetic express
sions that the camera has ever
recorded. Ecstasy" was consid-
cred the finest picture at the In
ternational Film Congress held at
Venice, Italy, competing with
American films, such as Little
Women, Death Takes A Holt
day., viva Villa, Wonder
Bar" and THE Invisible Man..
The intelligence with which the
theme is handled is what has
caused this film to be elevated
to the heights it has attained.
