he could accompany him to the

crushing NO. Joe walked across

Fiorello told him to go and look

Lenin! Nothing!'"
RETALIATION: The supreme
self confidence of Fiorello H. La
Guardia often led him to make
outrageous shots in the dark
relates the author.
1T always irritated me to see
how lucky he usually was. Once
for example,. a large manufac.
turer bitterly criticized him
Fiorello had never heard of the
concern before. but he dictated
"a statement saying that he well
coined attack from an organiza-
ton which was notorious in the
bad treatment of it's employees
II was staggered by this and
asked him how he knew this firm
was hard on its employees. He
admitted he didn't know the first
thing about the firm, but he said
he knew because everybody was
bad to employees, except him, OF
course.

OF the firms employees COM

THE COUNCILS VIEWS
Steve accuses his wife of snob-
berry, but he may be guilty OF
an excessively tender and helish
pride. He is not being sensible
or practical when he argues that
his wife may leave her money
to the children upon her death,
but may not use it for their
benefit during her lifetime.
The thought of profiting from
his wife evidently tends to un-
dermine Steve's sense of self
respect. This should not be. II

good to have the benefit of a
good home in a good neighbor-
hood with top schools during
their formative years than to in

suburban children turn out bad

whereby Steve restores his wife's
inheritance to her through the
years. by putting aside a small
sum regularly until it is made

idea that he alone will support

Judges sometimes feel just as
frustrated as the guy who loses
his case in court. Under that
Idignified black robe there may
burn a king-size judicial ulcer
Or behind the oaken chamber
doors tempers may take off like
guided missiles in argument;
with brother jurists.
Let's take Walter B. Wana-
maker. for instance, whose cast
is reported in recent issue Of
the American Bar Association
Journal.
Judge Wanamaker is a COM
mon pleas judge in Akron, Ohio
Several months ago Judge
Wanamaker wrote an opinion fol
a case which was subsequently
reversed by the Ohio Supreme
Court.
Now, no judge likes to be
reversed. He may become usec
to it or philosophical about it
but he doesn't like it. He doesn't
like it any better than the poor
fellow who stands before the
bench and hears "thirty-dollars
Ior thirty-days." And he espe-
Icially doesn't like it if the court
on up the line casts some re-
Election on his judicial acumen
Just what the Ohio Supreme
Court had to say about Judge
Wanamaker'S decision is not re.
ported in the Journal account
but it was distasteful enough tc
sting the lower court judge into
most unusual action. He sued
The first thing Judge Wana-
maker did was file an applica-
ton to make the State Supreme
Court expunge certain language
from it's opinion of his opinion

am so awfully afraid. Afraid OF
the pain of childbirth, the sick
ness I have gone through the
whole nine months of each preg-
nancy, not being able to care fol-
my children during the nine
months and having to see the
disappointment on my husbands
face if it is another girl. He
has wanted a boy since we were
married eight years ago.
Doctor, is it normal for q
woman to be SO worried about
matters like this? 1 haven't even
seen my doctor to confirm this
because as long as it isn't definite
I still have faith.
All my neighbors and relatives
know my husband and ! are very
happy and why should have
such a guilty conscience about
being pregnant the fourth time
I'll never know. Please give me
your advice.
Do you get letters of this type?
If you do, please let me know
your answer. Do you think Lam

my feelings natural? Would you
say I'm in need of psychiatrist?
I'm so afraid and no one seems
able to help me.
Please do not print my name
as I haven't even told my hus-
band about my suspected preg-
nancy. Thanking you in ad-
vance I remain Mrs. D. D.
Answer: The first step to take
is to see your doctor. Indecision
itself is killing. You may learn
that your anxiety about having
another baby has been unneces-
sary. 1t is better to know right
away.
If you are not pregnant, !
suppose you think that will be
the complete answer to your
problems. However, having OBJ
served many cases similar to
yours, I doubt it. l believe that
you will continue to fuss and
worry. Not, mind you. because
you are a chronic fretter; but
because my guess is that all your
molehills have become noun
tainS. Chronic fatigue has got
you down. You get up worried
and drop into your bed at night
too confused to think.

That brings UP the presSures OF
economic stress. In depriving
yourself of many things, there
you have another unconscious
cause of unhappinesS.
Add all of these things up: the
fear of pregnancy land of hav-

work; no vacations or other
form of relaxation; unhappiness
in close quarters; and the per-

and there you have the cause of

be less disheartened by your
present apprehension. The most
important thing for you to do
is to preserve your health: even
at the risk of waiting an extra
year or two for your new home.
Therefore, I'd suggest that you
take a little money out of the
bank and spend it on a two or
three-day vacation away from
the children. Call on the in
