M. M: I have a couple in my
home. A man and his wife. I and
his wife can't agree. I told them
to move and they have failed to
do so. Please let me know how to
get them out?
Ans: Don't worry 4. they are
as anxious to move as you are to
get rid of them. AS soon as they
find suitable place, they will get
out. In the meantime, let them
know that you are anxious for them
to find another place.
A. B. c.: Please tell me what to
do. My wife did something that
most men would kill about. She
claimed I neglected her and sup
pose I did. We have three lovely
children and I have forgiven her.
Is this the thing to do? I am will
ing to do what's right.
Ans: And you have done the
right thing my good man. The Lord
will bless you for your understand
ing heart and your devotion to your
family. Your children mean more
to you than life itself and without
mother, life would be most un-
happy for them. In admitting her
guilt, your wife proved that she
was shielding nothing only beg
ging your forgiveness.
P. T.: am in a little business
of my own making bridal gowns,
trousseaus and costumes. This
work is exactly to my liking and
I am very talented along these
lines. Must I give up my business
to go to work in a defense plant t?
Ans: There are other ways you
can help win the war besides work
ing in defense plant. You can
take more active part in Civilian
Defense. You can buy war bonds
and do Red Cross work. In your
case, these civic deeds will take the
place of defense work.
Heartbroken: A year and a half
ago, started going with boy
that came to my home town to 90
to college. I am a sophomore in
the school. This boy has shown all
the signs of being in love with me
until week or so ago and we had
an argument. I'll admit it was my
fault we quarreled. I have tried to
forget this boy by going out with
others but each time I try to fail
to get the right result. Should
step on my pride and go back to

Gas Hoarders Endanger
Lives of Many Persons

No homemaker or her husband
would leave a key Of TINT in the
basement, but If gasoline rationing
has prompted gas boarding in the
house the home owners had better
move out into the garage, cautions
Miss Gladys Ward, home manage
ment specialist University Of Illinois
college Of agriculture. This also
holds for the can Of gasoline that Is
being stored in a dark closet.
Gasoline, because Of its high ex-
plosive character has come to be
termed liquid dynamite" and Is
considered even more treacherous
than dynamite or TINT. A regula-
ton of the state department Of pub
lie safety, Springfield, as a means
Of counteracting the careless stor-
age Of gasoline, states that 'for per-
sonal or private use the amount Of
gasoline, benzol, naphtha, benzine
and crude petroleum should not ex-
coed five gallons and must be stored
in an approved safety container, re-
mote from flame or open fire. Such
storage must not be in any cellar,
basement or pit and should be In a
room with direct ventilation to the
outside and preferably In an out
building or garage" An infraction
Of this public safety regulation car
ries a penalty Of from $40 to $50
fine.
Most people do not realize that
gasoline vapor is heavier than air
and that it can creep along the ground
like a phantom stream for a con-
siderable distance. Thus consider
able volatile gas can be present in
a room before a person can detect
it, and If any type Of spark or
flame is present, a terrific explo-
sion may take place.

CRYSTAL Fausett
Speaks to Many
During Visit

Crystal Bird Fausett, special as
sistant in the Office of Civilian De-
tense at Washington, D. c., spoke
to several thousand Minnesotans
during a three day engagement in
the Twin Cities last week.
Brought here by the Women's
Activities Division of the Mime
apolis Civilian Council of which
Mrs. F. Peavy Hefflefnger is chair
man, Mrs. Fausett charmed Negro
and white audiences by her force
full speeches delivered with smooth,
sweet integrity.
Mrs. Fausett told white listeners
there was an urgent need for more
opportunity for Negro and white
people to meet and develop normal
human relationships. She said
much of the prejudice against Ne
gro service men in England and
other foreign countries has been
instigated by Americans and that
Americans must make up their
minds about the kind of treatment
the Negro service men will receive
when they return. She sighted the
interesting fact that Africa, con-
tinent that has been exploited by
the great powers of the world, is
now serving as a spring board to
freedom.
Negroes were advised to take ad-
vantage of the opportunities now
open to them, and suggested that
they do a better than average job,
cultivate the friendship of friendly
white people and work hard and
prepare to hold on to some Of the
gains-made during this emergency
for post war security.
After her first address at the
Citizens Aid Building, sponsored
by the Women's Activities Division
last Friday, organizations and in
dividuals were clamoring for more
public and private appearances by
Mrs. Fausett. It appeared, she
could easily have spent several
weeks in the two cities making
speeches, had her schedule per-
mitted.
During the brief period spent
here she talked at the Hennepin
Methodist church, sponsored by
the University of Life, there; Min
neapolis Saturday Lunch club
meeting at Millers Cafe; Phyllis
Wheatley House, sponsored by the
Minneapolis Urban League aux
Hilary; Halle @. Brown House, I'M
der the auspices of the st. Paul
Women's Council.
On Saturday afternoon, March 6,
Mrs. Fausett addressed the Min
nesota State Legislature as the
guest of Roy Dunn, majority lead
er in the House. She was the guest
at teas given by the Board of Di-
rectors of both Twin City branches
of the Y. W. C. A. and spoke brief
ly at each.

Shortage

The wartime boom at Randolph
Field, Texas, West Point of the
Air, which has more than tripled
the fields population since peace
time, has meant a depression for
the post school attended by chill
dren of Randolph's residents. En-
rollment has shrunk from 1876 to 80.
Miss Mary Sue Burcham, school
principal, explains it like this:
''Most of the personnel here before
the war were older people, and
many had children.

Two MeXican-born brothers who
made millions as international
munitions brokers before the United
States entered the war were called
on by Congress yesterday to tell
| about the preWar business of
Brewster Aeronautical Corp.
The House Naval Affairs Commit
tee, lnquiring into BreWster's affairs,
subpoenaed Alfred J. and Ignacio

The brothers were associates in the

Simultaneously yesterday the JUS

grand jury soon will delve into the

Tom c. Clark, Assistant Attorney

Yegg Gang Cracks
Another Safe Here,
Escapes With S1,391

A gang of safe-crackers, which has
succeeded in eluding police for sew
eral weeks, pulled off one of its most
successful jobs early yesterday at
the Colonial Ice Cream Co., 416
Canal street Sc, escaping with
$1,191 in cash and a 50-karat topaz
stone valued at 5000
Ceylon T. Boswell, manager of
the establishment, told police the
yeggs gained entrance through a
basement boiler room.
Failure of the robbery squad to
solve any of the cases or check the
increase in cracking has result
ed in shift of the assignment from
the regular robbery squad, headed
by Detective 1t. Aubrey j. Tolson
to a general assignment of all police
it was disclosed last night.
Police are convinced the thieves
are old hands at the game because
of their technique. At the Colonial
Co. the dial of the safe was knocked
off and the lock drilled out to open
the strongbox. Police said they left
no clue.
Detectives are certain gang is
involved in the wave of robberies, be-
cause in some instances safes have
been moved from their positions in
Offices entered. Last week they car
ried off safe weighing between 300
and 400 pounds from an Upper Four
