Questions Flood Judge Bentley
On All Kinds of Home Problems

Judge Fay L. Bentley of Juvenile
Court has come to the conclusion
she should edit an Ask Bentley
question and answer column on
family affairs.
The judge is called on daily for
advice on problems ranging from
what to do with naughty children
to how a husband may regain his
wife's lovely persons who never
have been inside her court.
For instance, there was a letter
from a penitent veteran who ad-
mitted he had been pretty nasty
TO his wife, but wanted the judge to
help him win her back.
Placed Him 'on Probation
His problem had nothing to do
with the type Of cases we handle in
court she said. 1--WE deal with non
support matters, but he said he al
ways had supported his wife and
two sons.
He wanted me to bring the two
Of them in and put him on proba-
ton so he could earn his wife back.
He was asking to become a de-
fendant.'
A nice voice" on the telephone
recently wanted to talk with her
about my son-he's just getting
beyond control" This was followed
by the startling question. How
long, generally, do people stay in
reform school?"

CIUDAD TRUJILLO, Dominican
Republic, April 20.-Would you like
to walk into an automobile agency
and ride right out in a new car?
Well, here's some inside dope on
how you can do it. The Nash dealer
here in Ciudad Trujillo can fix you
up. at the moment.
1t might be a little expensive. But
then it will have a long wait while
your name climbs slowly to the top
OF the long list of would-be pur-
chaSerS your hometown dealer has.
Your reporter is still little groggy
from the shock of walking into an
auto agency and being treated like
a preWar customer. After only a
couple of casual questions about
prices and delivery dates. the Nash
man produced some blank forms
and indicated he would be more
than happy to oblige.
He showed the S4-horsepower T.

you take this gentleman out for 6

Even in Spanish it sounded good
OF course, if you want to get the
car back into the United States
there are a couple of extras. II
would cost about S125 to ship it by
boat to New York. Then, the Ameri-
can embassy advised. there would
be a duty of % per cent, or roughly
$1,000 for the Nash. So the pur-
chase price, duty. and shipping cost
would add up to some $1,000 OF
$4,000.

Food Restricted.
Each member of the family will
be restricted to food rations totaling
S35 monthly. DomeStics will not be
expensive, but more servants than
necessary will be frowned upon.
BY United States standards, S35
doesn't sound like much. but Army
prices are cheaper than those at
home and if one does not insist on
caviar and boned chicken, the price
limit is adequate.
Each family has been instructed
to bring a full years supply OF
clothing because the Army-pater-
nal as it isis still not prepared to
open full-size department stores
and civilian clothing stores are
practically nonexistent.
In some places there will be sur
mountable but annoying kitchen
situations. Gas may be available at
brief and given times daily, and ice
boxes will be makeshift.
The Army, however, undertakes tc
provide fuel for heat and to run
automobiles.
Uncle Sam is already operating
tailor shops, beauty parlors, laun-
dries, cleaning and pressing serv-
ices.
The post exchange will be the
nearest thing to a drugstore. The
Army does not believe in self-medi-
cation.
The Army has not decided just
how the children are going to be
educated, but it is sure that a school
system will be set up.
