cinnati, Ohio, who has been visiting
Rev. and Mrs. Clarence T. R. Mel
son, 631 st. Anthony Avenue, re-
turned home Thursday. Mr.. Jack

practice of kissing every boy she
goes with as this will hurt her
reputation.
THIN: l think that you give ex-
cellent and sound advice. l really
have a problem and wish that you
would help me. l have been mar
ried to this man for years. 1 am
81 and he is 35. He is a very jealous
man. He never wants me to go any
place. He enjoys sitting at home
watching me. If should go out for
few minutes it's big fuss and
sometimes a fight. am from a nice
family and cannot get used to this
man. He provides well. 1 plan to
take a trip to N. Y. and now he
tells me l cannot go. l plan to leave
him anyway and we have no kids
and cannot stand this life. / have
my ticket and he says l won't ride
it. l say 1 will. l think / will be
much happier alone. We have
nice apartment and hate to give
it up but l must get out of this
mess. Thanks in advance for any
suggestions.
Ans: If conditions there in the
home are unbearable, a vacation is
your only alternative. There is a
possibility that this vacation will
make you more appreciative of your
husband and home and likewise
make your husband realize that he
has been entirely too pOssessive.
II is best to get away for a few
weeks and strive to prevent a
permanent separation. =. were you
to remain there under the strain
that you are experiencing now,
divorce would surely result. Avoid
antagOnizing your husband. {.
leave on your trip in good spirits.
X. T. c.: fell in love with a man
and married him. He said he loved
me. Now he doesn't want me to go
any place. He wants me to stay at
home all of the time and let him
go. l can't even go and visit with
my mother, sister and brother. He
beats me nearly all of the time and
accuses me of things l do not do.
He takes all the money make and
throws it away. He doesn't give
me anything. If he does, he takes it
back. Does he love me and will he
quit his ways? Must l stay with
him?
Ans: Chastising of ones wife
went the way of the cave man.
Modern women do not have to toll
crate brutality. It's hard to believe
that a man who loves his wife
would stOOp to such an act. How
ever, if your husband is the DOM
ineering type who believes a wOm-
ans place is in the home and should
have no authority or privileges,
adapt yourself to his ways of think

Weekend Hostel
Trips Scheduled

Beginning on the weekend of
July 1890 a work holiday is sched-
uled at the Mound Youth Hostel
for every weekend for the re-
mainder of the summer. There will
be pleasure trips and groups will
be able to swim, canoe or just sit
around the fire after cooking their
dinner and talk or sing. The trip
will be either hiking taking the
bus to the La Fayette Club and
walking five miles to the hosteD or
hiking. This trip will involve the
building of the Everett Memorial
Fireplace.
Blankets and kitchen utensils are
provided. Reliable couples preside
as house-parents. Hostelers secure
their own supplies from a nearby
store or from a farm. Youth hostel
passes costing $3.50 for members
under q and $3.50 for those over
q may be obtained from the ma
tional headquarters at Mortified,
Mass, or from the Minneapolis Dis
trict office, 325 City Hall. An in
troductory pass may be secured
there also for 25 cents, good for
two overnights.
An American Youth Hostel hand
book giving locations of all hostels,
key maps of regions and details
about each hostel plus a sheet
sleeping sack are requirements.
These may be obtained at the local
office but it is recommended that
hostelers make their own sleeping
sack because of the wartime diff
culties.
Further information regarding
hosteling may be obtained by call
ing Main 1891.

ing If you love him enough to en-
dure such treatment. If you feel
that you won't always be able to
bow to his will and live the life of
a martyr, make your decision right
now before your spirit is broken
and you are too embittered to Gre
ate a new life for yourself.
A. L. ": You have helped others,
won't you help me? l am thinking
of joining the WAC's. What do
you think about it in my particular
case? l won't do anything until 1
hear from you.
Ans: There's no finer way to
show your patriotism than to enlist
in the service of your cOdntry. You
have no dependents which will make
it easier for you to give up civilian
life. The training you will receive
will be a wonderful addition to
your education. Inquire at the local
Recruiting Office for information.

THE Able WALLACE SERVICE

NJ. S.: am a worried mother of
two children. My husband and l
don't seem to get along very well
anymore. We snap at each other
and can't seem to hold converse
ton without it ending in a quarrel.
l love my husband but lately it
doesn't seem like he has any af-
lection for me or our two children.
What's wrong?
Ans: Bickering, fussing and
nagging wreck more homes than
the major Offenses committed dur
ing marriage. For it is the little
digs and petty quarrels that an
tagOnize and lead to broken mar
riages. Every disagreement a
couple becomes involved in has a
tendency to lower each in the others
eyes Every misunderstanding
widens the breach and paves the
way to more serious trouble. The
hard things said are never for
gotten. They are magnified and al
ways lurk in the minds of the other.
Better quit swapping at each other
and snap out of it before it is too
late. Give your children a har-
mOniOus home life and be big
enough to overlook your husbands
shortcomings.
H.L.F.: 1 have been sick since
New Years Day. have lost weight
and am nearly worried out of my
mind. Someone told me that my
husbands first wife's mother has
me fixed and is slowly killing me.
My husband was a good man but
lately he roars like a lion. Tell me
what to do please.
Ans: You have worried yourself
into a state of i'll health by believ-
ing this malicious rubbish. Once
and for all time, dismiss from your
mind any notion or idea that you
have been hurt or fixed. There is not
a grain of truth in this gossip. Since
you are losing weight it would be
wise to go to a reliable doctor for
an examination. Men become i'm
patient with a whining neurOtic
woman who thinks she is sick. Get
yourself together and you will see
a change in your husband.
M. c.: I'm in love with a boy
about my age. He says he loves me
but 1 don't hardly believe he does.
He asked me to kiss him one night
and l told him to wait. Should l
let him kiss me?
Ans: The kiss a boy remembers
longest is the one he didn't get.
While there is no drastic harm in
a good night kiss, boys are inclined
to take advantage Of the situation
and look upon the kiss as an invita-
ton to further liberties A girl has
to use a little discretion as to whom
she kisses. she can't make a

FEPC to Hear
st. Louis Race
Bias Cases

ST. LOUlS-Complaln charg-
ing eight St. Louis war industries
with alleged discrimination in hir-
ing and upgrading Negro workers
will be aired when the Presidents
Committee on Fair Employment
Practices holds public hearings on
August l and 2, Malcolm Ross, COM
mittee chairman, announced last
week.
Refusal to hire needed and avail
able Negro women war workers
and refusal to upgrade Negro work
ers in jobs utilizing their acquired
skills, will be the principal charges
against seven of the firms. Many of
the complaints have been on file
with FEPC for several months,
Ross announced. The seven COM
panies are Amertorp Corp, Buss-
man Manufacturing Co., Wagner
Electric Corp, Carter Carburetor
Corp, st. Louis Shipbuilding and
Steel Co., Mcdonnell Aircraft Corp,
and the McQuay-Norris Manufac-
turing Co.
Compliments against the eighth
company involved, U. S. Cartridge
Co., charge that they were dis
charged during a cutback in en-
ployment while at the same time
the company retained in its employ
white workers with less seniority.
They also allege that the company
denied reinstatement to Negro
workers solely because of their
race, while granting reinstatement
to white employees with less senior
ity.
The issues have been set down
for public hearings after attempts
to adjust the charges by informal
negotiation have failed, said Chair
man Ross. An opportunity will be
accorded all parties to present evil
dence on the basis of which the
committee can determine whether
or not Executive Order 9346 has
been violated.
The case against U. S. Cartridge
Company is considered by the COM
mittee to be of special Importance
because it presents the problem of
minority group workers during cut
backs and inevitably involving the
employment status of minority
groups during rehirings of large
groups of workers.
The hearings will be held in the
U. S. Court and Custom House be-
fore the full membership of FEPC.
Ernest G. Trimble and Frank D.
Reeves, FEPC staff members, will
serve as counsel for the committee.
Sitting with Malcolm Ross will be
Miss Sara Southall, supervisor of
Employment and Service of the In
ternational Harvester Co.; Milton
P. Webster, international vice
president of the Brotherhood of
Sleeping Car Porters; Boris Shish-
kin, economist of the A. F. of l.;
John Brophy, director of Industrial
Union Councils, CLIO; Charles l..
Horn, president of the Federal
Cartridge Co., and Charles H. Hous-
ton, Washington attorney.

Whereas, The greatest document

men are born free and equal; and
Whereas, The Amalgamated

the first International Unions affili-

and
Whereas, They are shOuldering
their share of the sacrifices in the
great gIObal war that at present is
being waged by nearly all the ma

Whereas, From a trade union
standpoint the Negroes have con-
tributed as much as any other race
of people toward the welfare of
the working class, as well as the
advancement of the cause of or
ganized labor; and
Whereas, In the present global
war we find the representatives of
many states within our own nation
giving lip service to the cause Of
liberty, justice, equality and de-
mocracy, while underlying these
hollow words extolling the brother
hood of man there is a sinister
movement of class and racial in
equality running rampant through
out the nation; and
Whereas. cOlOred citizens, while
they are sacrificing their lives on
all the battlefrOnts of the world, in
many cases are considered as serfs,
having denied to them even the ac-
cOmmOdatiOn of hotel reservations

and
Whereas, Our International

raised as a result of the inability
of outstanding cOlOred representa-
tives of our local unions to secure
reasonable hotel accommodations;
