KIN 1t has been quite some time
since 1 have confided in you but the
time is here again when / really
need your help. Last fall I made
the mistake of leaving home with
a man who promised to marry me
as soon as we reached Buffalo. We
haven't gotten along at all. He
doesn't behave himself. When I say
anything to him, he tells me that
he changes women as often as he
changes his socks and if l don't like
it know what I can do.
Ans: Pack your clothes and be off
the honeymoon is over. You would
never be happy living under such
conditions, furthermore, you and
this man are not at all compatible.
Go to New York and stay with your
sister until you can make other ar
.Tangements. Be thankful you found

IKE WILLIAMS TO DEFEND
TITLE APRIL 26

Lightweight champion Ike Will
liams will defend his title April 26
in Los Angeles against Enrique Bo-
lanes for the benefit of the Lou Cos
tello Foundation. Ike will receive
only seven and one-half percent of
the gate while Bolanos will get 171a
percent.
Williams has decided to give up
fighting in the welterweight division
after losing two decisions to Kid
Gavilan, leading welterweight chal-
lenger. He will probably have all
h, can do to hold on to his title
against Bolanos and the No. / chal.
lenger, Freddie Dawson.
In a previous fight with Bolanos
Ike barely eked out split decision.
He has never fought Dawson.
SUGAR RAY MAY GET FIRST
SHOT AT MIDDLEWEIGHT
CROWN YET
BY signing up with the Tourna-
ment of Champions. Sugar Ray
Robinson, welterweight champion,
may have pulled an ace in the hole
in the form of his long coveted
chance to fight for the middle
weight championship.
With the great furor and opposi-
tion to Tony Zale's returning to the
ring to seek Marcel Cerdan's crown,
the Gary battler may not fight. 1t
is rumOred that he has been offered
10 percent of the gate if he stays
on the sidelines and let's Robinson
and Cerdan battle it out for the
championship.
Many fans believe that Zale, who
has taken rugged beatings from
Rocky GraZiano and Cerdan, should
retire before his health is injured
in the ring. Despite what the people
are saying, Zale still believes he
can come back once more.
Anyway, if Zale does fight Ger
dan. Robinson will meet the winner
of that, bout for the 100 pound title
in 10 days.

TCM - My daughter and her hus-
band separated and l have the four
kids. 1t has been a burden on me
this last year She left town because
she was afraid of him. Now he has
married again and left. My daughter
wants to come so that she can help
with the children. Is this wise
idea?
Ans: 1t is the proper thing for her
to do. Her husband was awfully an
tagonistic when she first left him
but he has reconciled himself to it
now and has made a new life with
someone else. Encourage her to
come back and go to work there so
that she assume the responsibility
of these youngsters.

Straddle Represented as Reason
Why Republicans Fail to Win

To the Editor Of The Star
The New Deal now Fair Deal. Democrats
frankly state that they are for the welfare
state (socialisml with controlled or govern
ment-owne enterprise and individual de-
tendency.
The conservative Republicans as frankly
state that they are for Americanism. indi-
vidual independence. and free enterprise.
and absolutely opposed to the welfare state.
The liberal" progressive now COM
promising moderate Republicans are for and
against both. /. e.. straddle.
The last four presidential campaigns pre-
sented the electorate only choice between
socialism and straddle. The last campaign
did not even present straddle but an echo
of the Fair Deal and demonstrated the
fatality by handing the election to candi-
date whom the majority Of people did not
give even a Chinaman's chance.
In sharp contrast to this straddling. the
Congressional election in sl946. where the
issue was a clear-cut question. Have you
had enough?" the results were more graft
flying than the most optimistic Republican
expected-a majority in both Senate and
House.
Surely, in view of these demonstrations
the Republicans are not again going TO re-
strict the choice of the electorate to socialism
and straddle. ALICE F. HETTMULLER.

A Foirer Deal for the Fair

In voting for an unconditional appFo-
priation of two million dollars for the
District Sesquicentennial. the Senate has
adopted a reasonable compromise on the
disputed fund. While the sum approved in
the deficiency bill amendment is million
dollars short of that urged by President
Truman and the District Sesquicentennial
Commission, officials in charge OF the
Freedom Fair" say that an adequate
though considerably modihed-program
would be feasible.
The Senate is to be commended for
eliminating the provision for sum to be
raised by private subscription. The Senate
Appropriations Committee unwisely had
recommended that Congress appropriate
only 81, SOC, 900 for the ceremonies and that
a similar amount be contributed by the
citizens of Washington. This condition
would have wrecked plans for the fair,
because it would be impossible to raise SO
large a private fund, even If there were
time for a well-organized campaign Be-
sides, the celebration of the 150th ami
versary of the Nations Capital is national
event, to which the Federal Government
should contribute not only money but
active support in many other ways.
The bill now goes to conference. where
it is to be hoped, the. House will accept
the compromise without quibble. The
House, apparently through a misunder
standing as to the nature and Importance
of the observance, had failed to approve
any money whatever for financing it. The
subsequent statements by the President
and members of the commission should
have dispelled any doubts as to the neces-

Only One Way to Settle 1t

In one OF series OF Star INTERVENE "iVLA
members of the House District Commlttee
on home rule, Representative Harris OF
Arkansas had this to say: i don't kno"
how Congress can delegate any OF It's
exclusive legislative powers over the Dis
trict as provided in the Constitution, to
any other agency"
Mr. Harris has put his finger on a tough
spot in any home rule measure. 1t Is
tough for this reason: II Congress Is to
be relieved of legislative functions for the
District, they must be delegated-in this
case to an elected city council. The ques-
ton is whether general legislative powers
those usually exercised by State Legis-
lature, for example-can be delegated, and
If so, how.
The question cannot be resolved finally
until the courts chew over 1t. And the
courts cannot begin this process until
some test of home rule legislation Is in
stituted which raises the issue in precise
form. This, of course, cannot take place
until home rule legislation is enacted. So,
while the issue raised by Mr.. Harris is
important it is not an issue which should
delay home rule enactment and 1t will
remain inconclusive until such enactment.
The question has not been passed lightly
by in writing the home rule legislation.
The House bill last year tried several
approaches, on advice of distinguished
legal counsel In one form the bill would
have delegated to the council the power
of initiating legislation. But such legisla-
ton could be killed by either House. This
was subsequently changed, SO that the
council-initiated measure could be killed
by joint resolution, concurrent resolution,
or simple resolution, with the added provi-
sion for disapproval also by the President.
In the absence Of such disapproval, the
bills would become law. But because OF
doubt as to validity Of such legislation by
the negative action of failing to disapprove,
the bill in final form removed all such
doubt by requiring congressional approval
and signature by the President for all
council initiated legislation. This had the
effect of continuing to cucumber Congress
with local legislation. f*5 #t ."t
The bill Just approved by the Senate is
not so cautious. 1t also relies on distin-
guished legal counsel. 1t permits the local
council to initiate general legislation and
such legislation becomes law unless Con-
gress, within a specified time, disapproves
It, The President, however, would sign or
veto legislation sent to him by this process.
There is some precedent to support this
theory of legislating in Congress by failing
to disapprove. HOY sound such precedentS
may be, of course, would depend on the
courts.
Mr.. Harris point is, therefore, important
But the point will never be settled by
debate, by holding up home rule on ac-
count of it, or anywhere outside the courts
of law

Britain and Cyrenuicu

Britain's unilateral action in recognizing
q status of self-government for Cyrenaica
Is at least step in the direction of estab-
fishing political stability in an area Of
demonstrated strategic significance. BY
the British pronouncement, recognition as
head of the new government is granted to
Emir Sayed Idriss Ell Senussi, spiritual and
temporal leader of the $50 900 Arab popula-
ton in the Libyan area adjacent to the
Egyptian frontier and embracing such i'm
portant ports as Bengazi and Tobruk.
The British action, following the recent
unsuccessful attempt in the United Nations
to solve the overall problem of the entire
prewar Italian colony of Libya, honors a
wartime pledge of Foreign Minister Eden
that the Senussis would not again be ex-
posed to italian domination. This pledge
was an obvious factor in the decision and
action of the Emir and his followers in
assisting the British during the several
military campaigns that ebbed and flowed
over this coastline and desert area in the
middle years of the Second World War.
That the British have chosen this present
course should not only cement their good
relationship with the Cyrenaica Arabs; If
not applied as permanent partitioning
scheme for Libya, 1t should also assist in
the further improvement of their relation
ship with Egypt and other Arab countries
though first reactions to it in Cairo have
been bitter. While the official British
statement does not touch upon the subject,
1t may be assumed that Britain will now
retain its rights to use of airfleld and
port facilities in the self-governed area.
The specification that the self-government
will be confined to internal administration
leaves it clear that London will continue
to exercise responsibilities for the defense
and foreign relations of the territory.
Retention of the British rights and respon-
sibilities, coupled with the solid relationship
already existing between Britain and Jor-
dan, maintains the commemorative tradi-
tional strategic interests both east and
west of the Suez crossroads.
Eventually. OF course, a solution must be
extended to Tripolitania and Fezzan. the
remaining geographic divisions of Libya.
In conformity with the Italian peace treaty
this solution must be reached through the
machinery of the United Nations, which
already. has rejected the proposal for an
italian trusteeship over Tripolitania and

Still q Bod Measure

Although the veterans pension bill
which swept through the House with
little opposition Wednesday is less obiec-
tionable than its rejected predecessor, it
is still bad legislation. 1t is bad because it
would saddle the Treasury with an over
all pension burden averaging more than
a billion year during the next half CEN
tury and because it establishes costly
new pension policy for veterans of both
World Wars-a policy not conditioned on
actual disability or degree of employ
ability.
The original Rankin bill would have
cost the Nation some s125, ,000, ,000,000 The
new proposal for $72-a-month pensions at
sixty-five for World War veterans will cost
only half as much. But even $65, 900 000, 600
is a sizable expenditure to approve at a
time when Federal deficits are mounting
with no relief in sight
It would be easier to justify the liberal
pension program If 1t could be shown that
the Governments past attitude toward
veterans had been miserly one. But the
facts are to the contrary. Last year alone
the Federal Government spent ss,ss6, ,oO0,-
600 on the Veterans Administration and
its varied programs for disqualification
rehabilitation, education and other relief
for former servicemen. Nearly fifty BILL
lions, all told, have been spent for aid to
veterans by the Veterans Administration
and the old Pension Bureau. No other
country has been so generous to its war
veterans.
1t is right that the Government should
be considerate of the welfare Of the men,
bers of the armed services present and
past 1t is right that men disabled In
combat should be given the best medical
care and assisted In overcoming their
handicaps. that those whose education was
interrupted by war should be helped
