an acute attack of feeling sorry for
herself, and decides that Jerry is
dog.
In the meantime, Jerry either re-
solves that he'll never have anything
more to do with women as long as he
draws breath, or else he promptly
goes out and gets a date with the
neighborhood's most noted necker.
Which makes things just that much
worse.
While this may seem pretty silly
when viewed from distance, it is
very serious to Jennifer and Jerry
at the moment. Usually they make
up after a while, but in the mean
time they are i'll at ease, embar-
rassed, and unhappy. And they
wonder how they should act toward
the other party in the quarrel, and
what they should do toward patch
ing it up, If anything.
The answer to the first question
is Peace, calm, poise!" Give your
boiling anger time to slow down to
a mere simmer, and root out that
insidious self-pity. Think back over
the quarrel, and try to decide
honestly, now-who was chiefly at
fault.
Were You Partly
to Blame?
Granted that Jerry's remarks were
rude, cruel and unjustihed, how
about the things you said to him?
Wouldn't they have made you wild,
too? Or granted that Jennifer is
a silly, illogical female, and that
there's no use trying to argue with
a girl, didn't you lay it on pretty
heavily?
Once you've reached that view
point, It's easier to take the first
steps toward patching things up.
Forget that "I'll be darned if I'll
apoligize!" attitude That's child
ish. If you were in the wrong, even
slightly, you'll be a bigger, more
worthwhile person If you'll admit
it. And you undoubtedly were at
least partially In the wrong. Quar-
rels that are all one-sided are pretty
rare.
The minute you overcome your
reluctance to say that difficult I'm
sorry" you've put the other person
on the defensive. He then has an
almost overpowering impulse to
admit his share of the blame, too
All of his Cor herr kinder, more
generous feelings are aroused. And
before you know it, the quarrel is
over, and you're in the delightful
throes of making up"
Sulking Is Sixth
Grade Stuff.
But until that time comes, re-
member our peace, calm, poise"
suggestion. No silly vows that you
won't speak to him. It may be
easier for you to avoid the other
person as much as possible, but if
you meet him or her, be politely
friendly. Sulking is sixth grade
stuff.
Once the misunderstanding is
cleared up. try to prevent more Of
the same. Watch for those moments
when you and Jerry or Jennifer
are getting bored and "touchy."
Evening star., 1940-04-02

Start a new game, get a hot band
on the radio, go for a walk, or stir
up spirited discussion about some
thing that is interesting but i'm
personal. If you can get Jerry to
rail against some handy dictator or
algebra teacher, he's less likely to
rail against you.
OF course, If you really enjoy this
SUPERINTENDENT business,
there's not much we can do about it.
You'll just have to 60 right on hit

BY WILLIAM B. ARDERY

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 12.-R-
Although acknowledging he had

today that congressional republi-
cans would cooperate with Willkie
after he becomes president"
With Senator Charles L. McNary,
Wilkes running mate, and Gov.
Harold E. Stassen of Minnesota,
Willkie and Martin discussed cam
paign plans in a luncheon confer
ence here. Much of the session,
Martin said, was devoted to details
of Wilkes western speaking tour,
on which the nominee leaves to-
night from Rushville, Ind.
Martin, talking with reporters
after the conference, said that
while some republican congress
men may differ with Mr.. Willkie"
on postponing CONSUMPTION, 1.-The
country wants congress to do some
thinking of it's own"
Willkie recently expressed hope
that a house-approved amendment
postponing CONSUMPTION would be
eliminated by a joint senate-house
conference committee. The COM
mittee took that action yesterday.

meant that he had differed with

.sYour club is to be commended
upon it's efforts to have the WPA
safe driving school re-establlshed

Dress to you my best wishes for
the successful elimination OF this
project.
"Of the three major elements In
volved in motor vehicle traffic
the highway, the machine, and the
driver; the latter by ia: is the most
important. There is crying need
in North Carolina for more proper
Nv trained drivers and it is my
opinion that the WPA safe driving
schools are one of the finest move
ments ever inaugurated in tn IS
state.
II sincerely hope that the Will

in having the driving school re-
established there and l want you
to call on the highway safety di-
vision, without hesitation, if we can
be of any assistance whatsoever

Reynaud Rules Out
Any 'Phoney' Peace
With Germany.
Weapon Forged Against
Reich Now to Be Used,
He Tells Americans
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PARIS, April 4.-Premier Rey-
maud, fresh from a session with his
inner war cabinet and military
leaders, told America last night that
Trance and England are strong and
strong enough to win" the war and
will conclude no "phoney" peace
with Adolf Hitler.
France has forged the weapon"
against totalitarian Germany and
now we are going to use It," he
said.
Using American slang in radio
broadcast to the United States, M.
Reynaud defined "phoney" as
counterfeit" and outlined Frances
purpose as follows:
From the outset we must finish
it. has been the formula which
summed up all our thoughts. And
that means no 'phoney' peace after
a war which is not 'phoney' in any
respect.
Reich Totally Insincere.
"Hitler's Germany will not sue
ceed in selling us that counterfeit" 4"
he continued. "Totalitarian Ger
many has been totally insincere. It
would be madness to believe that
by signing some kind of a COM
promise with her we should bessign-
ing anything other than our death
warrant for the following day."
In his high, clear voice, M. Rey-
maud paid his respects to Soviet
Russia as ''betrayer" of democracy
and an "accomplice" of Nazi Ger
many in aggression.
Every Frenchman knows that his
civilization is threatened by Nazi-
ism and its Soviet accomplices, he
said
Referring to Sumner Welles' visit
to Europe. the Premier said that
after the war I'VE must return to
a sane conception of free trade)
exchange. should like to exchange
goods with the planet Mars if
could. For every country the vital
space is the whole world"
Disarmament First After War.
M. Reynaud recalled that a men,
orandum from President Roosevelt,
which Mr.. Welles handed the
French government, stressing the
necessity of a liberal trade policy
in international relations after the
war, has received the approval Of
the French government" He said
the allies, united Into one single
force for war as we'll as for peace"
would start first on disarmament
after the war is concluded and then
pass to economic questions.
