WIFE'S HOSTILITY
HOLDS MAN BACK
A man may progress in the
business world on his own mer
its, but the backing of his wife
helps.
Q "I was interested in your
"letter from a working wife
who complained that her hus
band objected to her staying
late at the office and would
never go with her to any of
the office parties. Well, I have
the same problem in my home
and I know how embarrassing
it is. When we have parties
at Christmas, or to celebrate
the boss's birthday, or on any
occasion, such as marriage
of one of the members of the
staff, most of the wives ap
pear, but not mine.
"She was brought up very
strictly and disapproves of
drinking. I only drink when I
am with friends or at parties
but my wife treats me as if I
were a drunkard if I to much
Runaway Scrap
Market Harries
Steel Industry
New York (U.R) Iron Age
said today the already-harried
steel industry is faced with an
other knotty problem "a run
away scrap market."
Scrap prices have rocketed to
near-record levels, the metal
working weekly said, giving the
Industry and Washington "a bad
case of jitters."
On top of this the industry is
Juggling two other hot potatoes:
disgruntled customers and the
necessity to take facilities out of
production for much-needed re
pairs. "A crisis in scrap" as the
trade journal described it had
top buyers and sellers of scrap
O and administration officials
huddling in Washington this
week to wrestle with the prob
lem. "It will be a tough nut to
crack" the magazine predicted.
Iron Age said discussions will
center around controls of some
kind to further restrict scrap ex
ports a move designed to ease
the domestic supply problem.
"And it will cause a big rhu
barb between - buyers and sell
ers," the magazine said. "It will
also involves pur allies and their
need for scrap.
Why Not Other Controls
"Everybody involved will have
to tread softly. Because if scrap
is controlled, why not control
other metallics, including fin
ished steel.
Meanwhile, Iron Age said,
there are more dissatisfied steel
consumers now than there were
during the tight market of 1953.
"Everyone has the feeling he's
being shortchanged. Some cus
tomers are facing the prospect
of slowing their production lines
if they don't get relief in a
hurry.

as take a sip. She won't go to
any of the office parties be
cause of the drinking. It is
embarrassing xo me, especially
when my boss asks where the
missus is. I have used up
every excuse I could think
of, such as her not feeling well,
she couldn't get anyone to stay
with the kids, etc., but I am
sure he'sees through them.
"Last month one of the men
who had a job like mine was
promoted to a much better
position and I know he is no
better than I am. But his wife
turns up at all the parties, is
pleasant and agreeable to ev
eryone, end makes, a point
of being nice to the boss. I
told my wife about this and
she said if a man couldn't get
ahead on his own merits, he
wasn't good enough to have a
better job. Is she right?"
A Your wife is partly right,
but mostly wrong. It is true that
a man would not be promoted
unless he had
Tg4.f ! tne ability, but
it is also true
that among
two or three
men whose ab
ilities were
nearly equal,
the one who
had the closest
personal con
tact with the
boss would
likely get the

Job. And one way to have a close
personal contact with the boss
is to have a family friendship.
You are right in feeling that
your wife is being unfair to you
by staying away from the office
parties. And she is very narrow-
minded m her attitude toward
the slight amount of drinking
done at most office parties. She
would not have to drink if she
went to the parties, but she
should give others the right to
decide what they want to do.

thing that happened in
vious session.
It seems, according to Yates,
that a congressman from Indiana
butted in while one of his Ohio
colleagues was waxing loud
about something or other on
the floor of the House.
The honorable Hoosler wound
up his tirade by calling the hon
orable Ohioan a "jackass." The
Ohioan played hurt and the
speaker told the Hoosier to guard
his tongue. The gentleman from
Indiana said he was sorry.
"I withdraw the word I used,
Mr. Speaker," he said. "Never
theless, it is clear that the gentle
man from Ohio is out of order."
"Out of order in what way
am I put of order?" was the
angry retort from the Buckeye
congressman.
"Why don't you ask a veterin
arian?" snapped the man from
Indiana.
Yates says that he knows of no
such bitter exchange on the floor
this session. The only similar
incident was a tiff between Rep.
Cleveland M. Bailey, the Demo
crat of West Virginia, and Rep.
Adam Clyton Powell Jr., Dem
ocrat of New York. This occur
red a few weeks ago during a
session in the Education and La
bor committee.
"Bailey," Yates recalled, "is
aged 69. He struck Powell, aged
46, when the latter accused him
of telling an untruth."
Yates, by the way, would like
to be sure that everyone knows
he is not the Yates in the Dixon
Yates power controversy.
Yates says that he has his
troubles, and suspects that his
colleague, Rep. Henry Aldous
Dixon, the Utah Republican, oft
en is mistaken for the other Dix
on. Anyhow, Sidney Yates of Illi
nois says that his secretary pick
ed up the phone and said quite
properly: i
"This is Congressman Yates'
