Should a Wife Forgive Her Unfaithful Husband?

Two Hundred Dollars in Cash Is Offered for Best Letters. “I have been faithful lo thee, Cynara, in my fashion.” Ernest Dowson. One of the age-old questions that has been discussed among married folk for centuries suddenly has become a live "issue'’ again and is being debated over bridge tables and in locker rooms everywhere. The national release of the moving picture, "Cynara’’ in which Ronald Colman is starred opposite Kay Francis, has given impetus to the question: "Should a wife ever forgive an unfaithful husband?” “Cynara” is a picture that plunges deep into the great problems of married life, and every man and woman who sees it will ponder these questions (a) What would I do if I caught my wife for husband) cheating? (b) Should the wife in ‘Cynara’ forgive the husband? Loew's theaters throughout the country are interested in how you will answer these questions. So interested. in fact, that S2OO in cold cash will be given to the two best answers. The prizes will be divided, SIOO for the best letter from a husband, and SIOO for the best letter from a wife. Write a letter of not more than 100 words to the CYNARA EDITOR, care of The Indianapolis Times, and in it answer this question, “Should the wife in ‘Cynara’ have forgiven her husband?" Perhaps you think she should have forgiven him; perhaps not. On one hand, circumstances may justify infidelity; on the other hand, probably not. Be that as it may, every man and every woman who is married, or who is planning to be, has at one time or another asked this question, "Would I leave my wife, or husband, if I caught her, or him, cheating?” As the husband in “Cynara,” Ronald Colman was unfaithful. Put yourself in Francis’ place and then tell us whether you would do as she does in the picture. Your letter may be worth SIOO in cash. In addition to the national prizes of S2OO, there will be 25 pairs of guest tickets awarded to the 25 best local letters written. These winners will be considered in picking the national winners, and the guest tickets will entitle winners tc see the attraction following “Cynara” at Loew's Palace.

$250,000 Saved Coolidge’s Estate Chiefly From Salary of 30 Years in Office.

By United Press Mass., Jan. 9.—-Friends of Calvin Coolidge estimated today that he left an estate valued at approximately $250,000. There was no official confirmation. Those close to the former President based their estimate on what he might be expected to have amassed from his • salary during thirty years of public life, including six years in the White House, and from his earnings as a writer and from shrewd investments. His estate, The Beeches, is valued at $40,000. This is the sixteenroom mansion to which Mr. Coolidge moved from a $32-a-month duplex apartment after leaving the White House, and where he died suddenly of a heart attack Thursday. Mrs. Coolidge, brave and calm, attended services as usual Sunday at Edwards Congregational church where, only a few hours previously, she had sat at her husband's funeral. With her were her son, John, his wife, the former Florence Trumbull; and Miss Laura Skinner of New York, a friend of the former first lady.

VETERANS 1 AID ROW BREWS IN ECONOMY WAR Terriffic Battle Is Likely to Break Early in New Administration. BY RAYMOND CLAPPER United Press Staff Correspondent (Copyright, 1933. by United Press) WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—With President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt opposed to the sales tax, and congress in revolt against raising ! income taxes, pressure is growing for sharp economies in the veterans bureau. This bureau spends $1,000,000,000 a year, which is one-fourth of the | total cost of the government. Congress has been reluctant to | touch this expenditure. But condi- | tions are shaping to the point where | the demand for large economies is i forcing consideration of the possi- ■ bilities. A terrific battle is gathering, and j it is due to break early in the new ! administration. Cite Civil War Pensions Those leading the agitation for I reducing this expense assert that $400,000,000 a year could be saved without taking a single penny from any one who was injured in the war. But the issue,’ as many service men see it, is stated in slightly different terms. The question is, some of them say, j i whether the country wishes to place | the man who served his country in | war, but escaped uninjured, on the ; same basis as the man who did not serve. If so, they add, then to be logical veteran economies also should strike off all Civil war pensioners. This policy question, some of the veteran j groups say, must be decided first. Benefits Are Increasing Before stating the arguments adj vanced by the opposing forces in J this battle, the official picture of | the situation as it exists should be summarized. Key figures are: World war killed or died of disease, 126,000; wounded, i 234,000; prisoners and missing, 4,500; total casualties, 364,500; Total mobilized forces, 4,355,000; total World war veterans or dependents receiving benefits from veterans’ bureau, 1,145,116. Due both to the depression and increased benefits allowed by congress, the number receiving direct money benefits has increased 519,000, or 50 per cent in two years. The hospital lead of the veterans bureau has ugcreased 24 per cent, and the number living in veteran bureau homes has increased 44 per cent. Hines Voices Concern This rapid expansion has caused concern. In his last annual report, | General Frank T. Hines, director of the veterans’ bureau, said: “Confronted with the impressive total of past and present expenditures, and anticipating an increase in certain items of present expenditures as a result of the increase of applications because of disabilities incident to progressing age, and recognizing that at each succeeding session of congress, new benefits are proposed, which would further augment annual expenditures for veterans’ relief, we must regard with concern the possible future cost of veterans' relief.” Urges Speed in License Buying “Shop early and avoid the rush” is the advice issued to 1933 license tags purchasers by Todd C. Stoops, secretary-manager of the Hoosier Motor Club, who points out that inconvenience and annoyance results from waiting for the last-minute rush.

KILLER OF TWO SLAIN BYPOSSE Lack of Motives Puzzle Police in Porbe of Illinois Murders. By United Press ROCKFORD, 111., Jan. 9.—Authorities were confronted by a lack of motives .oday in their investigation of the slaying of Dan W. Fisher, 51, former carnival man, and Bessie Mead, 35, his housekeeper, by John Bellarques, 27, a farm hand, who was himself slain by a posse. Bellarques was a farm hand on Fisher's farm. While Pete Kuturic, another farm hand, was absent from the house yesterday, Bellarques beat the pair to death with an iron bar. Kuturic returned and discovered the tragedy. While he was summoning aid, Bellarques concealed the bodies under some burlap sacks, and fled. A posse lead by Sheriff Frank Murray took up Bellarques’ trail and quickly surrounded him a short distance from the farm. “I give up, I killed them,” the farm hand shouted. “They were’nt any good.” Then as the possemen approached him, he suddenly grasped a crowbar from a toolhouse where he had sought concealment, and lunged at Harold Swanson, a neighbor of Fisher's. Swanson fired on him with a 12-gauge shotgun, inflicting wounds from which the slayer died en route to a hospital.

FORESEE QUICK PASSAGE FOR WAGNER BILL Cut R. F. C. Red Tape and Liberalizes Needy Relief Measure. BY LEO R. SACK Times Staff Writer WASHINGTON. Jan. 9. —The Wagner bill, cutting Reconstruction Finance Corporation “red tape" and liberalizing the relief law. will be speeded through congress, senators predicted today. The measure, to be introduced today. has widespread support from Democrats and Republicans alike and, it is understood, from Presi-dent-Elect Franklin D. Roosevelt, as well as R. F. C. officials. The banking and currency committee will waste little time in reporting the bill to the senate. Indicative of the senate trend is j the fact that the conservative Re- I publican. Senator Reed Smoot i (Utah) has introduced a proposed j amendment, liberalizing the law os; that it may apply to irrigation projects. Senator Robert F. Wagner has no objection to the Smoot proposal, his idea being that all constructive , projects giving employment to peo- ! pie and serving a public good are beneficial and necessary. Seven Changes Provided Senator Wagner will confer Tuesday with Francis T. P. Plimpton, counsel for the R F. C.. in what j may be a final effort to perfect the | bill. The measure provides seven sig-1 nificant changes in the relief law. 1. It removes all limitations on j the amount which may be loaned to states for relief purposes. This sum originally was fixed at $300,000,000 i for a two-year period. 2. Instead cl requiring a state to ! exhaust its own! resources, the new bill makes fedevU funds available when a Governor certifies that a loan is necessary to “supplement the relief icsources of the state.” 3. Instead of continuing the existing month-to-month loan system, it contemplates six-month loans. 4. Future loans wlil be authorized by a special committee, appointed by the President, on the basis of their knowledge of social problems instead of the present R. F. C. personnel. Funds for ‘Transient Boy’ 5. A $10,000,000 fund is established to make outright grants to ; states to enable them lo handle the problem of the “transient” boy which social workers and many sen- • ators regard as one of the most i significant developments of the depression. 6. The self-liquidating loan project section is liberalized to l'emove the “pay-as-you-go” earning re-
