Fighting Mans Friend:
Girl Permitted
To Send Photos
To Australia

! d. d. F.: Q-My boy friend d
in Australia. If I were to send him
pictures Of myself, would the cen
sors allow them to go through
with his mail?
Ayes.
A. B.: OF a man and woman
who have been living common law
were to marry now would that
change the husbands classification
from ga, where he is now? Would
that change his status In the
draft Should he notify the draft
board?
Ali the common-law wife II
not listed as q dependent this
would not necessarily change
his classification or his draft
status. He should by all means
notify his draft board of this
relationship.
SAGINAW: Q-My husband
and I are separated and have been
for 81 years, but we are not
divorced. III he goes TO the army
will I be entitled to support from
the government?
IT'S DOUBTFUL
Ali ne has not been sup
1 porting you there 10 no reason
TO believe the government will
make such provisions.
MRS. II. f. B.: Q-My husband
Is in Class ga and I have tuber-
lculosis and am under a DOCTOR 3
care. Does that mean am q
dependent and that he won't be
called until the very last II
needed? He is in defense work
where he is needed very badly.
A-Unquestionably, since your
husband is In Class 3-A, you are
listed ~ . dependent. Probably
his local board will take into
consideration your Illness when
determining whether he should
be inducted. How soon he would
be called, II at all, only his local
board can determine.
LACK HIS SUPPORT
MRS. F. N. W.: Q-I am mar

and 2 years old. With the aid of
friends I support myself and the
children. My husband hasn't given
me any support for over two years.
He is "a. of draft age, and doesn't
support his family. Is it possible
THE government would need him
since we are supposed to be his
dependents? Would they take
him il he has failed to support us ?
A-If his draft board knows
Of these facts then Of course he
will be inducted, as you cannot
be considered his dependents 90
long ~ he hasn't contributed "a
your support. You should call
these facts to the attention Of
his local board.
A MOTHER: A-This n q
matter you must discuss with
your sons wife. The govern
ment win simply follow your

-Four District Bills
Go 10 White House;
One Amends Rent Act
Would EnubIe Homes
To Let Rooms Without
Being q Boarding House

Only the Presidents signature
was needed today to complete ac-
ton on four local bills passed by
the Senate yesterday, including a
change in the Rent Act to epcour-
age private families to take in war
workers.
The rent amendment would en-
able private household to take
in four roomers without being class
ified as a boarding house. The fam
lily could terminate the tenancy
without going to court to prove the
tenant was legal nuisance. The
bill was drafted on the theory that
many private homes would help to
house emergency workers If they
could later regain possession of the
rooms without legal difficulty.
Fee for Practitioners.
The three other bills which went
to the White House for signature
after the Senate acted are:
To require all practitioners of the
healing arts to register annually and
pay 81 fee.
To increase the penalty for in
decent exposure by authorizing a
Jail sentence as we'll as fine.
To make a minor amendment in
the law for the retirement of Police
Court judges.
Would Amend Asylum Charter.
The Senate also passed two other
local bills that still require House
action, namely:
To amend the charter of st. AIMS
Infant Asylum to increase the
amount of property it would be au-
thorized to own.
To provide for the better regis
tration of births, and to make the
record of illegitimate births private
Meanwhile, the Senate District
Committee postponed action until
Thursday morning on the new bill
to define the religious, charitable
and educational property entitled to
tax exemption. Chairman McCar-
ran had hoped to obtain action yes

tee members could not be present.

by tHe ASSoCtAbeo ffoAe.
To mobilize, the civilian population
more effectively behind the war
effort, 1t. Col. Frank Murphy rec
ommends elimination Of slumps In
production, profit in war and the
spoils system in governmental af-
fairs.
Ready to prepare for his duties as
Supreme Court justice when the
tribunal reconvenes October 5, and
tanned and fit from his three
months of Army training, Col.
Murphy said yesterday in an inter-
view:
THE country is not modified yet.
Common sense should bring it about.
Common sense should wake up the
people to the fact that we are be-
tween two powerful enemy nations
and every effort Is required
But something more horrible may
be necessary before many civilians
wake up-perhaps long line OF
caskets.'
Col Murphy expressed the belief
the Nation is training "the mightiest
army of them all' which would
deliver the goods when the hour
comes"
He declared the President and
his military experts must decide
where the second front should be.
And then" he added, the coun-
try must back the President. There
can be but one policy. We must
back those in authority"
Col. Murphy asserted that the
mechanized Army he had seen at
Fort Benning, Ga; Fort Knox, KY,
and in North Carolina and Cali
| fornia maneuvers, had "a great
! spirit" He observed that persons
saying the Army is not fully trained
simply do not know the facts"
After a conference with Gen
George c. Marshall. Army Chief OF
Staff, to give up his Army commits
sion, Col. Murphy said he would
go to Harbor Beach. Mich, for in
tensive work on his Supreme Court
duties.
Asked whether he would remain
on the bench for the entire eight
month term or re-enter the Army
he replied that, with world condi-
tions as they were, no one coulo
predict the future with any degree
of accuracy.
In New York last night, Col
Murphy said he was en- route tc
Detroit to review the factories
and war production effort" there
but he refused to say whether his
mission was an Official one.
He said he did not believe stories
of disorder in Detroit" and that
while there might be some dis.
ruption, Detroit can do heroic
things"
