I thought the money was "ours." Lorraine G. I was married three years "ago and was very much in love with my husband until recently. Then I started to suspect what my friends and family had told me before our marriage that Harold wanted to marry me for my money. Actually. I didn't have a great deal of money, but my parents were great savers and managed to save enough to give me a sub stantial dowry. I had thought this would be for our home and children, but Harold wanted to go into business and had nothing of his own. We invested the whole thing in his business. Now he wants to expand his activities and wants me to ask my parents for more money. I wouldn't dream of doing this because my parents need the money for their old age. But Harold has been harping on the subject day and night. He has treated me very coldly since I refused to do as he asks, so how can I believe any longer that he loves me for myself? Harold G. I fell in love with Lorraine and asked her to marry me before I had any knowledge of her dowry. I know that neith er her friends nor her family liked me from the start, but I never suspected the real reason until Lorraine told me.. I felt sick that they should think such a thing about me but even worse when Lorraine threw the whole thing up to me. The fact is that once we were married 'I thought the money was "ours." After all, I am not running away with Lorraine's money. It is for us and our chil dren. It is the future of our fam ily I am thinking about when I ask Larraine to get a little more from her parents. I feel they can well afford to help out their only daughter in this way. I am so disgusted with the whole thing that I feel like sell ing the business and giving Lar raine back "her" money to do with as she likes. Th Council: Lorraine was very wrong to tell Harold what her family and friends said about him. Evidently, she felt it was not true since she went ahead and married him. She probably does not feel it is true now, but is using it as a weapon against him to stop his nagging for more money. On the other hand, Harold was wrong to make an issue of the money when he saw that his wife did not wish to ask for it. Most married persons feel as Lorraine does, and do not like to come to their parents for money unless it is absolutely necessary. Harold is also wrong to set himself up as judge of what his in-laws can "well afford." It is unlikely that he has full knowl edge of their resources and their plans for the future. He is as suming a certain right over their income which his marriage to Klamath Welfare Charges Baseless Klamath Falls U.P.) A; spokesman for the State Public j Welfare Department said today ! that little evidence to substan-' tiate charges leveled against the 1 Klamath County Welfare Com-i mission had been brought to ! light thus far in an investiga tion. ' William R. Smythe, field di- j rector for the department, said some 60 Klamath county citi-1 zens have called at the office to make sworn statements re-1 garding the local situation. "Thus far," Smythe said, 1 "Very little evidence to support the charges contained in the pe tition has been brought to light in the interviews." The state representatives are conducting a probe after a peti tion signed by 76 persons was sent to the governor charging "shameful and unequal" treat ment of welfare recipients. The petition followed the shooting of Welfare Commission Chairman Fred Peterson and the serious wounding of two other officials by a disgruntled pen sioner at a welfare hearing. Friday February 8. 1957 MEDFORD (OREGOV) MAIL TRIBUNE FTVH Detroit Mystery Sniper Confesses Detroit U.R A young fac tory worker who terrorized four suburbs with wild rifle fire Thursday night told police to day he was Detroit's long sought mystery sniper. Gary A. Taylor, 21, wounded two young women with .22 cali ber fire and shot at seven other girls during a three-hour spree before police captured him in nearby Royal Oak. Taylor was unable to explain his actions. "I don't know what it was," Taylor said. "I just had an urge to shoot at women." Oakland County Assistant Prosecutor William Lang said Taylor told him he was the mys terious sniper police had been seeking since Dec. 22 when a young woman was shot in the back while walking home with a friend. She recovered. Since the Dec. 22 shooting, the sniper has fired at women stand ing at bus stops and at walking women. Until Thursday night, however, he had struck nobody again. their daughter does not grant him. Lorraine should try to put the poisonous suspicions about her husband out of her mind and recognize the significant facts that Harold points out that he asked her to marry him before he knew about the dowry and that he has not absconded with her money but invested it in a business which will probably benefit their children. It was natural for him to react by treat ing her "coldly" when she showed him the suspicions on her mind. Harold and Lorraine owe each other apologies and forgive ness.
