War Wives Resent
CompIacency Of
Fortunate Ones
By RUTH MILLETT

War wives don't ask or expect
to be handled with kid gloves-but
they do wish the women who are
fortunate enough to still have their
husbands around the house, instead
of overseas, would not be tactless
enough to make any of the follow
ing remarks:
Il know exactly how you feel
to wife worrying about her huS-
band at the front. Only another
war wife or mother CT son at the
front knows exactly how she feels,
and it is presumptuous for anyone
else to make the statement.
'Oh, he's probably all right" said
airily to the wife who is worrying
because it has been weeks since
she has heard from her husband.
We'll, we can't expect to win a
war without losing a let of men,"
Nobody with loved one on fight
ing front appreciates that kind of
matter of -factneSs from women
whose men are still at home.
ADJUSTMENT Is HARD
Lucy isn't making a very good
adjustment" said one war wife
about another, a woman who hasn't
had to learn the hard way that
there is no real Adjustment for the
wife whose husbnd is in constant
danger-that the best a woman can
do is fake a cheerfulness and un-
troubled exterior.
Sometimes l think the men left
at home are the ones who are
really having it tough. Joe is work.
ing so terribly hard these days
1t takes perfect self-control for the
wife of man living in fox hole
to let that kind of remark pass un-
challenged.
Comments like those make wal
wives feel that they aren't under
stood or appreciated. Because nc
one who even family understands
the problems and worries of wal
wife would make any of those
cracks. And yet many women un-
touched by the war-except for do
ing without nylon stockings, etc
do make such remarks every day.

NEW YORK, March II R =
Strength of rails and a revival of
the oils helped offset profit TAX
ing in other department of today's
stock market.
While volume tapered with the
appearance of irregularity, deal
ings exceeded the million-share
for the eleventh session this year.
Carriers, buoyed by the transporta-
ton outlook despite rising wages
and taxes, touched their best av-
erage level since 1887. Helping the
transportation division also were
reports that the land grant law
might be repealed, thus eliminat-
ing freight rate cuts on govern
ment shipments and adding some
500, 900, 600 annually to the roads
revenues.
The petroleum group registered
a peak for the year or longer.
Price boosts in some districts
for crude and talk of subsidies for
low-output producers aided the
long-dormant oils. Steels, on the
other hand, slipped as Army man
power demand threatened a labor
shortage in this industry.
Trends turned spotty after a
fairly steady opening. Activity
dwindled but picked up in the
final hour. Closing prices general
ly were spotty. Some customers
trimmed accounts for weekend in
surance.
The Associated Press 6O-stock
composite was unchanged at 53.2.
Transfers totalled 1885 shares
compared with 1888, 665 Thurs
