Jealousy Double Curse When 1t
Appears After Second Marriage

hold the whole picture suffused with
green? If you could get rid OF that,
you would perceive that there Is no
harm In your wife holding an oc-
casional conversation with her for
mer husband, unless you believe
that she is a double-c -crosser and not
to be trusted. Which seems un-
likely, considering that they couldn't
get along together when they were
married and each claims to be
happier with the second choices
than they were with the first.
You have to realize that divorces
in which children are the pawns
bring about strange domestic COM
plications that cannot be avoided.
Because q divorced woman marries
again doesn't alter the fact that she
is the mother Of the children Of her
first husband, nor does 1t keep her
from loving them, nor being inter-
ested in their welfare. Hence it is
inevitable that she should want to
discuss problems concerning them
with their father, and that they
could only do this freely If there
were no third person listening in.
And the man who cannot trust his
wife to do this, surely has a very
poor opinion Of her.
AS for your thinking that your
wife's former husband is trying to
break up your home, that is another
halIucination induced by green eyes.
He has a wife he preferred to your
wife and anyway he couldn't marry
her, even If he would, and 1t is not
likely in these hard times that he
would care to set up two wives even
If the law permitted.
AL you need to solve your problem
is to be less tyrannical and arbitrary,
and to try to put yourself In your

Raleigh, April 24.-North Caro-

will contain maximum of 70 men,
bers who sat in the 1889 body; while

The high figure is absolute tops as
only 70 sitting members qualified for
the May primary and there are only
two counties which now nominate by
conventions and which have not yet
selected their party standard bear
ers in the legislative derby.
The bottom figure is much lower
than it actually will be; as by no
means every incumbent who has OPP
position is going to be defeated. There
are % Democratic members and a
nair of sitting Republicans who have
no intra-party opponents. Practical
w all of these are certain to survive

Statement

Washington. April 24.-(AP)--
Senator Clark, Democrat, Missouri,
asserted today that Rear Admiral
Joseph K. TauSSig's prediction OF

Clark, talking to reporters, added,
however. that he did not believe pre-
sent statutes made court martial
possible under the circumstances.
Il don't know of any statute he
has violated, but think it was very
unseemly and disgraceful procedure,
the senator said.
TauSsig'S statement, made in tes-
timOny before a Senate committee,
drew an immediate comment of Sec
rotary Hull that TausSigs views did
not represent those Of the State de-
partment.

thing" Clark declared. He noted thai
he had introduced bill which would

Total of Dead Expect.
ed to Reach ESQ From
Deaths in Hospitals;
F | a m e S S W e e p
Through Spanish Moss
Decorations.

NatchcZ, Miss, April 24-(AP)-
More than 200 Negro men and women
burned to death here late last night
when flames racing through dccora-
tons Of dry Spanish moss trapped
them in Onc-cXit dance hall.
Coroner II. L. Smith said he and
Sheriff Hyde r. Jenkins had counted
2l2 dead. He expressed the belief a
score or more others in hospitals
might die, bringing the total to al
most $50.
Hundreds OF dancers were in the
hall when the fire broke out and
flarcd suddenly. There were no
rear or side doors in the building
and windows had been boarded up.
The coroner said bodies were
piled up like cordWood."
THE skin was peeling from faces,
blood oozed from mouths and the
flesh was broken. From my exami-
nation it appeared that most of the
people died of suffocation. A ma
jority Of the victims were about Is
or l6 years old. There were about
as many men as women victims.
The bodies were piled up in fun
cral parlors and no identificatlons
had been made yet. The undertake
crs told me they would cmbalm the
bodies and then line them up and
let relatives file by to identify kins-
men,"
julius Hawkins, Negro employee
Of the NachcZ Democratic, who was
at the dance, said he managed to eS-
cape.
Il was standing near the door and
it Just spread over everything" he
said. Il turned and made run for
it and got out with only a scratched
arm.
Inside everyone was trying to get
out and crushed each other as the
fire was burning them. All were
crying and yelling and after while
