Part of the Price of Motrin1ony
Is the Loss of Personal Liberty

Before you marry you should
count the cost of matrimony.
There is nothing for nothing in
this hard-boiled old world of ours.
Among the most expensive objects
in it is wedding ring and before
purchasing it one should decide
whether or not one is willing to
pay the price.
Part Of this price is personal
liberty. When a man marries he
is not free to come and go as he
pleaSes, as a bachelor is. Nor is
he free to philander, or even to
indulge his personal tastes and
habits. His money is no longer his
own to spend upon himself and
unless he happens to be rich he
cannot have the indulgences to
which he has been accustomed as
a single man.
When a woman marries she also
sells herself into bondage. She is
no longer free to do as she pleases.
She must do as her husband
pleaseS, if there is to be any peace
in the family.
II she has been a society girl.
she must become a grub instead
of a butterfly. If she has been a
business or professional woman, in
most cases she must give up her
work and swap a mahogany desk
for a gas range and toll harder
than she ever did before in her life
without any pay envelope at the
end Of the week. At night she
must walk the collie instead of
dancing and in place of the fat
terry OF many men she must listen
to the ult-f1nding of one.
Forget Cost After Morrioqe
So every man and woman who
are considering matrimony should
do a lot of figuring over the price
they will have to pay for it and
decide whether they think it is
worth 1t. But after they are mar
ried they should never count the
cost of it again.
Likewise. before marriage men
and women should wear magnify
ing glasses when they look at each
other, but after marriage they
should wear blinders.
Before marriage a man should
carefully scrutinize the character
and disposition of the young wo-
man with whom he is contemplate
ing spending the rest of his life,
He should test out her amiability.
He should investigate the amount
OF brains in her pretty little head.
He should find out if she has a
sense of humor. He should get a
line on her point of view. He
should ascertain whether she
knows how to cook, and whether
she SHES at the site of a kitchen
or adores pots and pans.
Same with a girl. Before she
gets married she should find out
what sort Of disposition the man
has with whom she is contemplate
ing tying up. and whether he will
be a little ray of sunshine in the
house or a wet blanket over it.
She should get his ideas about
whether he considers a wife as
a partner who goes fifty-fifty with
her husband, or as an unpaid
domestic servant. She should

know whether he proposes to be
a flreSide companion or run with
his old crowd. and whether he
thinks he can pick out winners
on the racetrack and support the
local tavern without getting the
worst of it.
Should Test for Love
Before marriage every man
should ask himself: will I still
love this woman when she is no
longer young and pretty? Will
her voice still have power to thrill
me when I hear it every morning
across the breakfast table, asking
me to leave money for the milk
man and not to forget the butch
er's bill?"
Every girl should ask herself
will I still love this man when
he is fat and bald-headed? Will
my heart still do f1ipf1ops when
I hear his footsteps coming home
at night ten years from now, and
will I still hang upon his words
when he wants to know why
never learn to make biscuits like
his mother used to make?"
But after marriage love should
be taken for granted, and it is as
fatal for a husband and wife to
begin to count their heart throbs
and analyZe their feelings toward
each other as it is for an indi-
vidual to begin to explore his
system for symptoms of disease.

FEC Expects Court
Victory on Columbia +,
Color N Method

The Federal Communication
Commission is confident it's choice
of the Columbia Broadcastine
Systems color television method
will be upheld in the courts.
In a statement following issu-
ance of a restraining order by the
Federal Court in Chicago, the
commission asserted:
The action of the court in nc
way impairs any Of the findings
or determinations made by the
commission. The only thing the
court has done is to postpone the
date when regular operation can
begin in accordance with the new
color standards"
The court order bars indefinitely
possibly for a month or more
until further legal decisions are
made-the start of commercial
color operations planned by CHS
for Monday.
Radio Corp. of America has
brought suit to set aside the FEC
selection of the CHS method and
the court acted in this connec-
ton.
Attorneys for both sides had
said they would appeal to the
Supreme Court in the event of
an adverse ruling.
In New York, meanwhile. CHS
President Frank Stanton said the
company would comply with the
court order, but would continue
color demonstrations in New York
and launch others in major cities
of the United States soon.

East, West Can Live
In Peace, JoIiot-Curie
Tells Red Congress
BY the Associated Press

WARSAW, Poland, Nov. IT.
Prof. Frederic Joliot- -Curie, French
atomic scientist, told the second
World Peace Congress today it is
possible for two ways of life
Eastern and Western-to exist
side by side in peace.
"Whosoever says it is impoSsi-
ble," he declared, ''is warmonger
and ought to be exposed and
condemned"
The congress, backed by Com
munists, moved here yesterday
from Sheffield, England, because
the British government barred
many foreign delegates. Joliot-
Curie, who was fired last April
as head of the French Atomic
Energy Commission, is president
of the Defenders of Peace, spon-
sors of the congress. He was one
of those barred from England.
Hopes Move Will Spread.
Joliot- t-Curie said he hoped this
peace movement would win the
support of other organizations in
terested in promoting peace. He
mentioned the Quakers. the Red
Cross, the Peace Council led by
LORD Boyd-Orr, British Nobel
Peace Prize winner, and the par
tisans for Peace.
Despite this hope, however. the
tenor of many congress speeches
today was that all the yearning
for peace is concentrated in the
East and that all the warmongers
live in the West.
The main concern of the con-
gress is the abolition of the atomic
bomb, but Joliot-C -Curie had little
to say about this, except:
THE release of atomic bombs in
the last war was tragic error"
Stalin's Name Cheered.
He told about 5000 delegates,
meeting in an improvised hall
soon to become a printing plant,
that proposals advanced by Rus
sian Prime Minister Stain to

and North Korean delegates were
elected to the presidium Of the
