Modern Morrioue

turned out to be a drunkard so
was extremely happy to marry
this man who doesn't drink and
who seemed to share all my in
terests; he is also very good to
my little boy. But that's pretty
nearly the end of the story. He
doesn't pay any attention to me;
hasn't once told me that he loves
me. since we were married.
1--WE live on a farm but he works
in the city. AS soon as he comes
home in the evening he goes out
to take care of our live stock. At
supper he hardly speaks. He
spends the evening reading or
watching TV until he drops off
to sleep.
What I'm afraid of is that he
is still in love with his former
wife. How can I make him show
a little interest in me? I keep
neat and attractive and try hard
to appear happy. He seems con-
tent, as long as he is left alone.
That doesn't seem to me like much
Of a marriage. I hope you can
suggest something I can dots
no use to suggest anything he can
do. because he would refuse to do
anything"
There are many men who find
it hard, almost impossible, to put
their feelings into words, Mrs. T,
Evidently you are married to one
of those men. and you're not 60
ing to be able to change him
though you could make both him
and yourself miserable in the at
tempt. He's born that way.
One of the first things for any
man or woman to do in marriage
is to ask, What do I have to work
with? What is this marriage Co.
ing to be like?" You can be GER
tain that it will be unlike any
other marriage in the history Of
the world. You have certain ma.
terial to work with, in yourself
and your partner. Your job is tc
make the most of that material
which Is quite unlike what some.
one else may be working with.
1t seems to me you and the little
boy could easily join your husband
In his work around the farm, anc
thus have more companionship
Almost any one enjoys havins
other people take an interest ir
what he is doing.
Ask your public library for my
latest book, Marriage Is What
You Make It." You'll find in II
very detailed and specific sugges-
tionS on how to deal with all sorts
Of common problems that arise In
any marriage.

Virtually everyone enters mar

find this image comes to life.

Plans
Program in
America
By Frances Lide

A helping hand in the develop
ment of university women's as
sociations in Latin America is to
be extended by the International
Federation of University Women
during the next few years.
That was one of the decisions
reached at the 32d council meet
ing of the IFUW recently held in
Menaggio. Italy. according to DR..
Anne Gary Pannell. president of
Sweet Briar College.
A major purpose of the Latin
American program will be to pro-
vide a "buttress of liberal, demo-
cratic ideas and processes, DR..
Pannell explained.
The Sweet Briar president, who
arrived in New York on Tuesday.
held a press conference here yes
terday at headquarters of the
American Association of Univer-
sity Women. She Is international
relations chairman of the Ameri-
can Association and attended the
conference as an official delegate.
National associations of uni
versity women are chartered in
several of the Latin American
countries" she said. But they
are mostly on paper. And there
was not a single representative
of a Latin American country at
the council meeting"
DR.. Pannell pointed out that
the liberal movement has not
been very strong in Latin Ameri-
can countries in recent years, due
to internal conditions.
The IFUW feels that strength
ening the university women's pro-
gram there would help to pro-
mote democratic traditions. she
declared.
A staff member will be added
to the IFUW headquarters in
London to carry out the Latin
American program. 1.-THE first
requirement will be that she have
linguistic ability at a high level
in Spanish. Portuguese and
French" DR.. Pannell pointed out.
"The job also calls for a woman
who has contacts in Latin Amer
lea. through residence, frequent
visits or some other means" she
said.
The first two years probably
will be devoted mainly to cor
respondence. For one thing, the
IFUW hopes to build up a mas
ter file of Latin American women
who have attended colleges in
Europe or the United States. Such
women might form the nucleus
for new organizations.
The appropriation of funds for
the new Latin American program
was typical of the note of opti-
mism and realism which char
acterized the council meeting, DIR.
Pannell said.
Another forward step was q de-
ciSion to provide funds for the
work Of the Committees on Relief.
Cultural Relations and Economic
and Legal Status of Women. Such
funds will be made possible by a
recent raise in federation dues.
The main purposes of the IFUW
are the encouragement of basic
education and the building up of
international understanding, DR..
Pannell explained.
Members Of the council came
from regions as diverse as India.
Australia. the Philippines, Europe
and North America, she pointed
out. "But they found a pathway
to unity in their common wish to
build up ties of friendship and
understanding, and to aid the in
crease of worldwide respect for
the rights of individuals" she said.

committee to know that I have
designated Inspector Clarence

rays preliminary statement be-
fore the Senate District Crime
Investigating Committee today
follotDs::
Mr.. Chairman, and members Of
the committee. when I was ap-
pointed superintendent of the
Metropolitan Police Department
] was directed by the Board, OF
Commissioners for the District oi
Columbia to cooperate with this
committee and to assist its staff
in their efforts. I personally have
been happy to do this. and I have
directed the members of our de-
partment to do likewise.
I have stated publicly on sew
eral occasions recently that the
many and varied investigations of
the department over the past few
years have harmfully affected the
morale of the department and
have rendered the recruitment ot
new police officers very difficult
This is shown by the fact that
there are. at present, I'll vacan-
cieS.
Naturally, I had hoped that this
investigation would be completed
as expeditiously as possible. How
ever, it is also very important
that our department should have
the full confidence and respect OF
the citizens of the District OF
Columbia. AS the capital of the
Nation, Washington is entitled to
"a model police force.
For these reasons, and in view
of some of the testimony that has
been taken here. I sincerely hope
that this committee will make a
thorough and decisive investiga-
ton and will not leave the entire
department under a cloud.
Praises Policemen.
Most of the members of the de-
partment with whom I have
worked over the years are fine men
men who should be a credit to
any position they might hold.
They have made a record in most
phases of law enforcement which
in my opinion, is unmatched by
the police department of any other
major city. It has been an honor
and privilege to know and work
with them.
I would like to make clear to
this committee that in my many
contacts with Mr.. Arnold Bauman
committee counsel. I have found
him to be a very capable investi-
gator and always fair in his deal
ngS with me. I am sure that this
committee and Mr.. Bauman will
want to give those police officers
whose names have been mentioned
In these hearings an opportunity
to appear here and testify under
oath. should they desire to do so.
II there is any evidence of dis
honesty or impropriety of action
on the part of any member of the
force. appropriate disciplinary ac-
ton will be speedily taken. I want
to pledge to this committee and
10 the citizens of the District of
Columbia that I will in no way
shirk my dutieA and responsible
tiles. I never have in the past.

all laws without fear or favor,

By GENERAL, LUCIUS CLAY Ex-U. s. Military Governor in
 Germany

In the middle of the war against Hitler, if somebody had told me that | would one day be standing in the heart of Berlin before several hundred thousand of it's citizens demonstrating their desire to be free, l would have said the person was crazy. Yet that very thing happened to ms recently when 1 returned to the former German capital with the Freedom Bell, the symbol of the American campaign to pierce the Iron Curtain with the propaganda of truth. In open and dangerous defiance of the Russians and their East Ger man puppets, thousands of West and East BerlinerS gathered m the middle of the city in a nov ing demonstration against tyr amy. If they had believed Tn tyranny few years before, they believed in it no longer. They had seen what democracy could mean and they wanted 1t.
 I cite this incident to support my conviction that given the proper circumstances, and some hope, man as an individual, wherever he may live, will dem onstrate that he is inherently honest and decent. He wants lit tie more than to live in friend ship with his neighbor, in req sonable security, and to raise hlS children so they may find oppor- tunity before them.
