Harold D. Smith, Federal budget
director, appealed today to the State
and local governments of America
to cut down spending in order to
conserve money, labor and ma
terials for the national defense pro-
gram
During this period of the defense
program" Mr.. Smith said, every
effort should be made to balance
State and local budgets and to cut
down activities, particularly public
works projects, which conflict with
the defense program"
The Federal budget head ex-
planned that at the present time it
is impossible for the National Gov
ernment to balance its budget, but
he declared that it was a good time
for State and local governments to

Mr.. Smith recommended that
State or local governments with sur

securities in order to facilitate
financing of the defense program.
In some cases, he said, such i'll
veStments would be advisable in
preference to retiring local in
debtedneSS.
Paying off debts, he explained,
would put more money in circula-
ton and contribute, possibly, to
inf1ationary tendencies which would
hinder the defense program.
State and local governments, he
added, also could plan ahead for
public works and other spending
to prevent an economic lapse after

/ hardened old bachelors, who are
marriage proof.
So my advice to you is to waste
no more time in wishful thinking
about matrimony, but to make your
self an interesting and happy life,
with or without a man in 1t, as
chance may decree.
You can do it if you will, because
the world is so full of a number
of things besides husbands that
women should be as happy as queens
if they would only content them
selves with single blessedness, which,
believe me, is not to be despised.
For marriage carries no guarantee
of happiness with it, nor is every
husband a prize package. Accord
ing to statistics, one marriage out
of every six is such a purgatory
that the wife breaks out of it at
any cost.
And there are millions of other
women who have husbands who ara
drunkards and philanderers and
ne'er-do-wells whom they have to
support. who never mention their
husbands when they thank God
for their blessings.
So why not give up the husband
chase and devote your energies to
the pursuit of happiness instead
of a man? First of all, buy some
new clothes. Nothing cheers a
women up and puts pep in her and
gives her fresh outlook on life as
much as a smart outfit. Then
change your mode of life. Get out
of your rut and 60 somewhere
where it will be different, where
you will meet new people and do
new things.
Above all. get busy, so you will
have something to think about be-
sides yourself. Get a job If you
can. If you have had no experience
in any kind of work outside of the
home, go to some vocational school,
get yourself tested out for your
aptitude, then study it. Make
yourself so proficient in it that
you can command a good salary.
You will find doing all of that
plenty exciting.
And If you are rich and do not
need to work, join some of the phi
lanthropies and work with them
helping others. You will never
dare to pity yourself again when
you see the real troubles that so
many unfortunates are up against.
There is no need for any woman
to complain that she Is lonesome
and that she doesn't know how to
make a full life for herself in these
days. DOROTHY DIX.

Dorothy Dix Says >>>
Second Marriage Does Not Garry
Happiness Guarantee With 1t

Dear Miss Dix: Will you please
tell me how I can get something out
of life again? 7 am a widow 80
years old, good looking, quiet and
refined. Have never smoked nor
drank. Go to church and Sunday
school. My husband has been dead
four years and I am very lonesome
and miss having home and hus-
band to look after and cook for.
I would like to marry again. but
do not seem to attract men. 1t
seems that the best part of my
life has gone, but I would like to
make something out of the remain
der of it. How can I?
BROKENHEARTED.
Answer-The best part of every
woman's life is gone when she is
80, and this is especially the case
when she has had good husband
and lost him. Nothing can bring
back her girlhood and the gay heart
of youth. Never again can she know
the thrill of first love, nor the joy
and excitement she experienced in
setting up her first home. Life
doesn't repeat itself. 1t goes on,
but it is never the same and it is
folly to expect it. At 38 you must
face the fact that your chances of
marrying are far less than they
were at 18, so you can't count on
getting a husband. The marrying
men are the young men. There
are plenty of them, but by the time
men get in your age class-which
would put them in the 40s or
50s-they have been pretty well
picked over and led to the altar, and
there are not many eligible ones
left. Mostly they are widowers who
are enjoying their liberty, and who
have no notion of slipping their
necks in the moose again, or case

ing vaguely across the HoOr, DISCUSS
ing the possibility of finding their
lost dates by hiring private detec-
tive, running a want ad in the COL
lege paper. or sending out a st.
Bernard with keg of brandy tied
to his neck.
Obviously, Eddie can't abandon
Toots in the middle Of the floor and
go seeking his lost love alone. So
the chances are that the two OF
them are still together when the
music starts again, and there's
nothing for them to do but resume
dancing. Probably this doesn't
please either of them too much, but
they know no other way Of solving
the problem.
OF course, this same thing has
happened to Elinor and the Phi
Delt transfer, and to scores Of other
couples. Some girls have been en-
barrassed. fearing that their part
ners of the moment would like to
leave them, but not knowing how to
let them get away gracefully. Other
girls have been stuck with dismal
dancers. or with fellows who are
tipsy. or with boys who are lll-at-
ease over their inability to get back
to their "steadies." Altogether, its
a grand mixup, and in some schools
nobody has been able to do much
about it.
Well, maybe we can't, either. But
at least we're going to try!
First of all, We suggest that when
you go to a big dance, you join up
with a few of your close friends and
stake out a claim to one corner OF
the sideline space. Have an under
standing-talked about or taclt-
that this spot is to be your base OF
operations for the evening.
Their when a dance ends, Elinor
merely SAYS to the Phi Delt transfer
my gang meets over by the orches-
ira platform. Shall we walk over
there?" The Phi Delt can then take
her hack to her girl friends-who
are being brought back by their
latest cutter er-inners-and leave In
search OF his own GATE.
OF course, it isn't quite so easy for
Eddie unless Toots is also using the
same system. But he can always say
to her, Where will your date expect
to find you?" and then take her to
what seems to her the most logical
spot If she hasn't any suggestion
at all, he can take her to his base
of operations, in the hope that her
date will find her there, or that some
other man will ask her to dance.
This system won't work perfectly
until it is generally adopted. But
any group of young people can start
it, and as others follow their lead
the chaotic situation will gradually
be corrected. Meanwhile. the more
aimlesS wanderers 1t gets off the
cente! of the floor and back to theil
bases. the better will be the chances
of remaining lost souls to connect ur
with their own guys or gals.
AS we see it, handling the problem
in this manner takes away none o.
the cherished fleXibility and inform
ality of the cut-in system, but doe;
deal with one of its greatest dis
advantages. It's simple, practical
Evening star., 1941-04-22

too baggy. Don't forget to ask for
a full-length mirror, a triple one
where you can see the back view.
That's where the draped droop
effect comes in-and it's awful!
2. Choose the fabric carefully. If
you want something very snappy,
there are covert or gabardine types:
if you need something practical,
choose washable sharkSkin or some
other hard wearing material.
3. Please don't dash around town
in slacks. We haven't the faintest
objection if you want to wear them
while driving the car, tending the
garden or lounging around the
house, but when you go downtown
shopping in them it's just too much.
After all, we are getting around to
accepting slacks, but We haven't
advanced sufficiently to approve
them on the city streets. Believe us,
it's not exactly an indication of
good taste.
T. Decide what you'll wear with
your SldChS. AL lOIllc YOU may
choose a crisp blouse; in the coun-
try a sport coat is very smart; for
resort wear you may like blazer
(they're coming back again or a
pullover sweater, with the proper
foundation beneath.
5. And before you do any of this
take a good, long, honest look at
your measurements. Maybe it would
be a better idea if you held off
buying slacks until you lost that 10
pounds, or maybe you're just touch
too short to achieve the proper
effect. You needn't have a perfect
figure, but it's a splendid idea to
have a passably good one if you
indulge in slacks. Lightweight
foundation garments worn beneath
help, too. And if you're lady
whose legs could be a little heavier,
slacks are the answer to the Beach
Shorts Blues.
Above all, do your best to look
trim and well-turned out in your
slacks, for that's the only way you
possibly can win over the disbeliev-
ers. II you know how comfortable
slacks are, you'll want to make them
an accepted trend, too.
