Manners and Morals
The letters published below, written by Butler university students, are the ones which Jane Jordan did not have time to answer, in person Tuesday afternoon when speaking before Theta Sigma Phi. national woman's journalistic sorority. Dear Jane Jordan —What are the chances for a successful marriage if the girl doesn’t know whether she is in love or not, but the man is very much in love with her? She respects and admires him, and he is very kind and considerate. She realizes his faults and tries to correct them, the major one being that he doesn’t mix enough with people. This point isn’t serious in marriage. The girl is just 21, but there are so few kind, decent men left that she hates to pass this one up. Women are pretty,fickle, so maybe she would care for this one as much as the next, as he is above the average intellectually and morally. DOROTHY L. Answer —The chances of ’ success of any marriage are slim where one partner does all the taking and the other does all the giving. The one
is cheated of the right to love and the other of the right to be loved. To respect and admire a man is not enough for a girl of 21. She has a hankering for romance which must be satisfied before she can be content. With an older woman, respect and admiration might grow into love, but the younger woman "has a thirst for
M
Jane Jordan
thrills. The inability to mix with people even is more trying after marriage than beforehand, for no two people are wholly sufficient to each other. The friends you share are one of the things that keep marriage alive. Women in love are not fickle but faithful. Your letter shows that you doubt the young woman’s capacity to fall in love, because she had not found her first love affair to be very exciting. Your remark about the scarcity of kind and decent men suggest that your father either has failed in kindness himself or has set such a high standard that you believe none other can attain it. Dear Jane Jordan —1. Threefourths of the people in college think they are in love. Do you think they really are. and if they marry the people they think they love now, what are their chances of being happy? 2. Do college students neck as much as their parents think they do? 3. Can you be true to one man and neck with another? 4. Do you think the institution of marriage is breaking down? 5. Would sex education in high school reduce the number of gir’ who ”go wrong" as our grandmothers would say? 6. Will there be education for couples who plan to marry in less than another century? (I mean education in less than a century).

7. Do you think you are really helpful to the people who write to you? If you aren’t, is it possible for such a column to really be helpful? Mightn’t it do harm as well? A BUDDING JOURNALIST. Answer—l. The majority of students probably are not in love with each other but with the idea of being in love. The large number of failures among young marriages suggest that the chances of happiness with an early love choice is not great. 2. I have no accurate statistics on necking. 3. Necking one man while remaining true to another is possible but riot probable. 4. So far as I can tell, marriage seems to be as popular as ever. 5. Sex education at any time would lessen the number of mistakes made by the young. 6. I hope for education for couples, who plan to marry, but I am no prophet. 7. Advice is pernicious when the advisor is “playing God.” No person should advise another what to do in any major problem of life. All he can do is throw more light on the subject so that the individual can make up his own mind. Dear Jane Jordan—ls a boy is in loye with you, and you criticise him constantly, will be gradually not care for you any more? STUDENT. Answer—He will stop loving you unless he is a hound for punishment. We tend to love the person who inflates our ego, and to despise the one who deflates it. Dear Jane Jordan —Two years ago I was engaged to a boy whom I loved very much. When I went on my vacation he asked me to write to him, but my mother, who is very old-fashioned, thought that was a terrible thing to do. When I came back I noticed that he wasn’t as he used to be, but I didn’t think anything was wrong. In September he stopped coming over every night and by October he was only coming Friday, Saturday and Sunday. One Friday he broke a date with me and I cried myself to sleep. I told him I wouldn’t have dates with him for three weeks as I was dated up. Os epurse he knew I was lying, but he said that when I wanted him to come back I should tell him. After the three weeks, during which time I could scarcely live, I asked him back but he said he was busy. Then a mutual friend told me my fiance had been going with another girl. I was absolutely crushed and gave back his ring, but he didn’t seem to care much. Now two years later I find I still care for him. I have had only three dates since I’ve been here at Butler. I compare all boys him and find them short. Last summer I called him up and he asked me for a date, but I never have heard from him. , Should I try to see him or should I forget him? AM I TERRIBLY SILLY. Answer—You must face the fact that the boy no longer is in love with you and that anything you do toward winning him back only will drive him that much farther away. This does not mean that you are not attractive to other boys at all. I You will have more success with ! your other dates when you stop brooding over what is past. Nobody i wants a gloom bird. Too intense j concentration .on the love problem i makes it just that much harder to j solve. Interest yourself in other things while you are waiting for anI other suitor.

, THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Pay All to Meet Price of Equality Economic Level Is Held Sole Objective of Communists. BY GRETTA PALMER Time Special Writer NEW YORK, Jan. 11.— “ Ever y! woman,” said the woman Communist. “ought to belong to the Communist party out of gratitude for what they have done for her sex in Russia.” Ought she, indeed? The Communist attitude toward equality of the sexes is one of the most splendid achievements of the century. To have replaced the halfhearted, hypocritical mouthings about woman’s right to be a human being by an actual application of the doctrine is something for which j the comrades should pat one another on the back. But there is a little more that their party asks us to accept than that. Communism as it exists in America at least, is a religion. And ft very fanatical and austere religion, too. It reminds one of the old charge against the Puritans—that they opposed bear baiting less from sympathy with the bear than from their dislike of the fact that the spectators were having a good time.
What’s Not Offered The present Communist ’ program ddes not offer the pleasing hope of granting every one the amenities of life which only the fortunate can now enjoy. If it did, and offered a reasonable plan for achieving this end, we should probably be chanting the Internationale from the skyscrapers. But Communism does not promise that the working man shall have tail coats and vintage wines and Morocco - bound limited editions, that he shall dine off plover served to him on finely chased old Sheffield. Far from offering these delights to every one, it simply denies them to us all. Your true Communist scoffs at the softer things of life. He jeers at loyalties and sympathies for anything except the abstraction of social justice. You do not see happy faces among the men and women in Union Square; you see ferocious, threatening ones. And happiness, as Oscar Wilde once said, is nature’s stamp of approval. They are not happy because they are wedded to a religion of hatred and negation. Their very signs, which they carry in their innumerable parades, are phrased in quarrelsome terms. Have you ever seen a Communist sign which said, “Up with the Workers or the Underdog,” or “up” with anything at all? They prefer the more antagonistic “Down with the Bosses” —and that, we believe, is a rather significant symptom. Outlaws Manners It was once our doubtful privilege to referee a debate on whether women could prevent wars between a violently left-wing Communist and a representative of a peace society. The word “referee” is used advisedly. In our blissful, bourgeois ignorance we lja d thought things were going quite nicely until a very young male Comrade marched up to the lady from the peace society and announced, “We are going to fight you with our fists!” Perhaps the industrial program of the Communists is a sound one. We wouldn’t know. But it appears to be a party which outlaws every dictate of good manners and civilized living, with the sole excuse of economic righteousness. And we’re not taking any of that, thank you very much.

Contract Bridge
Today’s Contract Problem South has the contract at three no trump. West opens the king of diamonds. How should South play the hand to make four no trump?

E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League NATURALLY, most of the interesting hands at contract bridge present only a problem in bidding. The following hand was indeed an interesting problem, due to the fact that East, in the course of the bidding, had put in a psychic. Remembering that we do not advocate the supporting of partner’s bid with less than four trump—even with three to the ace—if there is a better bid in your hand, until partner, by a re-bid, shows his suit to be at least five cards in length. East’s bid of three clubs over the two diamonds, of course, is purely a psychic, with a good out in spades. South properly doubles the threeclub bid, North letting it remain. If. East had passed, East and West

would not take a trick. East takes himself out with three spades. ts ft tt NOW South’s bid of four clubs is proper to show that his second suit really is clubs. North’s bid of four spades shows no losing tricks in spades. South bids five hearts to show that he would prefer to play the hand in hearts. North can take the contract to seven hearts. East makes U, fine sacrifice bid of seven spades. South now is confronted with quite a problem. His partner has made a cue bid in spades, showing no losing spades. Due to the fact that South holds a singleton spade, it looks very much as though North holds the ace of spades rather than a void, and, if this is the case, undoubtedly a grand slam in no trump can be made. However, South should not guess —his proper declaration is to pass. This is a forcing pass, requiring partner either to bid seven no trump or to double. Naturally, without the ace of spades, North is forced to double. If North’s cue bid had been based on the ace of spades, the grand slam in no trump could be made. This is a fine example of the forcing pass, and is a bid for which our readers should watch carefully. (Copyright, 1934. by NEA Service. Inc.)
41,000 INDIANA HOME OWNERS
BID FORJ.OANS 1,860 Requests Granted by Corporation, M’Kinney Tells Builders. Forty-one thousand applications for loans have been made by distressed property owners in Indiana, j E. Kirk McKinney, state manager ! of the Home Owners’ Loan Corporation, said last night in an address before the Indianapolis Home j Builders’ Association at the Wash- ; ington. Since the organization of the corporation last August, about 1,860 j loans totaling about $4,500,000, have ; been granted. Mr. McKinney said, j In Indianapolis and Marion county, 336 loans approximating $850,000 j have been granted so far. The record of the Indiana corpor- i ation is looked upon as one of the ! most outstanding in the United I States, Mr. McKinney said. By Feb. | 1, it will be lending about $1,000,000 1 a week, he believes. Home loan bonds can be used by i building and loan associations and ! banks in all parts of the state to aid in stimulating the home construction industry, it was pointed out. Institutions holding these bonds may obtain loans from the Reconstruction finance corporation and thus place money in the hands of home builders. Jack Strickland, Indianapolis, office manager of the corporation, and A1 Lynch, secretary to Mr. McKinney, were guests of the association. The Indianapolis Home Complete Exposition will be held from April 6 to 14 at the fairground, J. Frank Cantwell, director, reported. A resolution commending Mr. McKinney and other officials of the Home Owners Loan Corporation for their work in the four months the corporation has been set up, was adopted, following Mi’. McKinney’s address.

Wooed by boxer Max Baer, but reported to be the fiancee of millionaire Phil Plant, Edna Dunham (above) now has revealed that she is the divorced wife of Ernest F. Dunham, well known Wall street figure, who left the country after he had been adjudicated a bankrupt. The information came to light in a New York court when she appeared to fight a $7,775 judgment against her for furniture installed in her Park avenue apartment. Nicaraguans are going back to their oxcarts and discarding the traffic regulations introduced by the American marines, since the depression has driven the automobile off Managua streets.

Accidental discharge of an automatic pistol carried by a 15-year-old boy, resulted in Emmett Thompson. 17. of 1319 North Pennsylvania street, apartment 2. being shot in the mouth last night, the bullet lodging in the back of his neck. The injured youth was taken to Methodist hospital, where it was reported his condition is serious. The 15-year-old youth told police he had borrowed the pistol from another youth for “protection,” carrying it in a shoulder holster. He said he and Emmett had been to a grocery and returned to a house where he had been staying, near Methodist hospital. As he removed the weapon from the holster, it fell to the floor and was discharged. the bullet striking young Thompson, he said. Police believe the shooting was accidental. The younger boy was not held by police. His father is dead and mother is in the Marion county tuberculosis sanitarium, and officers were to place him in the home of a couple who have promised to care for him.
