Paulin F. My husband
won't take responsibility.
Peter F. There's nothing I
can do to please her.
Pauline F. What can I do
with a husband who refuses to
take responsibility?
I am 27, two years older than
Pete, so perhaps he looks on me
as the stronger, more mature
one. Still, I don't think that's any
excuse for his refusal to do such
things as deal with the landlord,
make decisions on what to buy,
dicker with workingmen and
hundreds of things that call for
a little spunk. In the four years
of our marriage, I have never
known him to take on himself a
responsibility that really affect3
our lives.
We have a two-year-old baby
and we hope to raise a large fam
ily, so I am going to have enough
to do taking care of them and the
home. Im tired of having the
full burden for
my shoulders.
everything on
Peter F. Pauline is constant
ly harping on what a real man
would do in my place, but I
sometimes think what a real man
would do is shut her up some
how. Don't get me wrong. I love
my wife, but she sure is hard to
take at times.
Whatever I do, Pauline seems
to think she has to do over. If
I talk quietly to the landlord,
she thinks he's taking advantage
of me. So the next day, she'll
talk to him in her own way
loud. Then she'll complain she
has to do the dirty work.
The worst of it is there is
nothing I can do to please Paul
ine. If I "take responsibility," I
do the wrong thing. If I don't,
I'm no man. What does my wife
want?
The Council A gentleman
named Shakespeare may have
given the answer to Peter's ques
tion "What does my wife want?"
in a play called "The Taming of
the Shrew."
The hero, Petruchio, having
made up his mind to marry Kate,
decided he was the man to tame
her, "And bring you from a wild
Kate, to a Kate comfortable as
other household Kates."
He did it simply by insisting
on being boss. If the sun was
out and Petruchio said it was
raining, Kate had to agree. If
Petruchio decided that an old
man was a beautiful young girl,
Kate complimented the whis
kered one on his delicate, girlish
skin.
In the end, Kate wound up
lecturing other women on their
duty toward their husbands and
expressing amazement that wom
en should "seek for rule, suprem
acy and sway, when they are
bound to serve, love and obey."
Japanese Strike
To Retain Yankees
Tokyo m More than 3,000
Japanese, waving red flags,
picketed the huge U. S. Air
Force Base at Tachikawa Thurs
day in what amounted to
"don't go home, Yankee" dem
onstration.
The pickets, members of the
Zenchuro National Garrison
Workers union, staged the dem
onstration in protest against the
feared unemployment which
would follow the evacuation of
U. S. troops from Japan.
The demonstration at Tachi-
ikawa was sparked by the issu
ance of dismissal orders to 575
Japanese employees.
The strike is schedule to end
today.
We'll guess that Pauline
doesn't want her husband merely
to take more responsibility, but
to prove that he is bigger,
stronger and better than she is.
Peter couldn't prove this simply
by dealing with the landlord and
making decisions. He would
Vlaira ff incict tVlnt nrVlsfairai. Vl a
j: j , . .
Well, it is doubtful whether
Petruchio's method would work
in our world today. Petruchio
had all of society behind him
when he insisted on being boss.
Peter couldn't even convince
himself that he was right in us
ing such methods.
We suggest, therefore, that
Pauline try to tame herself. She
should recognize that she is over
domineering, yet has a complete
ly unreasonable desire to be
dominated. If she wants her hus
band to take on more "manly"
responsibility, she must let him
do it in his own way. If she in-
! sists on being boss, she should at
least let her husband enjoy the
peace of living under a kindly
ruler.

VA Reminds Vets to
Use X' Number
Veterans writing to the Vet
erans administration about bene
fit claims or GI insurance poli
cies should be sure to give bene
fit claim "C" numbers, S. T.
Brannock, head of the Medford
VA office, has announced.
Many names in the VA files
are duplicated. About 30 mil
lion names are carried in the
central file. Often the "C" num
ber or insurance policy number
is the main distinguishing factor
between claims.
"Mystery mail" with no num
ber listed comprises 10 per cent
of letters received at the agency,
Brannock said. These require ad
ditional correspondence or con
siderable checking to find the
correct claims or policies. This
is costly to the administration
and prevents the veteran from
receiving a prompt reply, Bran
nock stated.

total of $349,528,540 for private

Georgia-Pacific
Schedules Layoffs
Bellingham (IP) About 270
men and women employed by
the Georgia-Pacific Plywood
Company plant here will be laid
off around Sept. 20 "until fur
ther notice."
Plant manager Arthur Olson
says the curtailment stems from
plywood market conditions. He
added that curtailment of the
Bellingham plant operation will
enable Georgia-Pacific to keep
its Oregon mills on an operating
basis.
Most of the firm's timber is
situated in western Oregon. It
has been the practice to tow
peeler logs from various Oregon
points to the Bellingham plant
for milling.
Olson says negotiations are
still underway to sell the Bel
lingham plant to an employee's
cooperative headed by Ray Rob
bins of Robbins Plywood Co.,
Seattle.
