Only q Cruel Wife Will Alternate
Husband From His Mother

DEAR MISS DIX: My son
married, after a very short ac-
quaintance, a very estimable girl.
He and his wife are apparently
devoted to each other, for which
we are indeed very thankful. Be-
fore he was married he was a
very devoted son, but now after
two years of marriage his parents
seem to have no place In his ex-
istence. He rarely ever comes to
see us, although he has a car and
lives less than mile from us.
The reason for his treating us
so neglectfully is that his wife is
so jealous that she cannot bear to
have him have any relationship
with his own family. I try to
console myself by saying that If
my son is happy I am, but the
way he. treats me hurts.
A MOTHER.
Answer: No wonder, and the
wound must ache intolerably when
you think what a weakling your
son is that he lets a woman DOM
mate him so completely that he
dares not even visit the mother
who bore him.
Even more than the imbecile
wife who is jealous of her mother

in-law without reason, I blame
the cowardly man who lets her
dominate him and make him
neglect his mother, when with one
good fight he could assert his
right to at least enough inde-
pendence to do his duty to the
woman who brought him into the
world and who spent the next
20 years cherishing and serving
him.
No meaner woman exists than
the wife who tries to separate her
husband from his mother, nor is
there any blacker crime than for
a wife to ALLEVIATE her husband
from his mother. Every child
owes it's mother more love than
it can ever repay, and a wife
should help her husband pay his
debt instead of forcing him to
default on it.
I often wonder If these cruel
women. who have no pity or
sympathy for their husbands
mothers, ever think that the day
may come when some woman as
heartless as they are may keep
their sons away from them and
leave them lonely, waiting In vain
for the sound of the footsteps that
never cross their doors.

u. S. Reported Consulting
Allies on Chinese Move
BY the Associated Press


The United States was reported
today consulting with Britain anG
France on a Chinese government
move aimed at opening the way
to mediation by outside powers in
China's war.
Undersecretary Of State Lovett
told news conference yesterday
that a communication had been re-
ceived from Generalissimo Chang
Kaishek's government, but refused
to say what 1t was about.
However, press dispatches from
Marking have reported that China
was raising the question of possible
action by one or more of the
Big Four nations-Britain, France
America and RuSsia-to try to end
the long conflict between Chinese
government and Communist forces
These reports are in line with in
formation from diplomatic sources
here. The Chinese evidently have
not directly suggested mediation,
but have opened the way either to
suggest 1t or to have some nation or
group of nations volunteer good
Offices by inquiring as to the atti-
tude Of each of the Big Four on the
possibilities Of peaceful settlement
In China.
Some answer may be sent to Nam
king by the State Department in a
few days, but indications are that
no step will be taken by Washington
without careful checking with Lon
don and Paris.
