Spending by Rich Gives Poor Wages Economy Fast Forgotten by Critics of Certain Wealthy Heiresses. BY GRETTA PALMER, limr* Special Writer New YORK. Fob. 27.—A certain young heiress has been criticised frequently lately for a certain extravagance in the "way she lives. Some critics practically foamed at the mouth when it was recently reported that the young woman would receive only a ' simple tiara of dia-

rnonds for her birthday. Others made dark references to Marie Antoinette s unfortunate remark about bread and cake and seemed to feel that the young woman was egging on the tumbrils. Now, it is a matter of agreement among our economists today that the patriotic duty of every citizen is

the spending of wealth. Certainly some very harsh things have been said recently about the old-fash-ioned habit of holding on to your money formerly esteemed as “thrift,” now branded as “hoarding.” And it is evidently inconsistent to attack the splurging of a woman who is doing exactly what the economists and the government and President Roosevelt have urged her to do. Many Industries Depend on Luxury Our present economic system may not be the most kindly or wise one that you could think up. But that system is the or.e in which we live in 1934. And that system includes a great many industries which have no purpose beyond luxury. If the poor iittle rich girl, alarmed by her critics, cuts down on the scale of living what will happen? You know immediately that her jewelers and florists and dressmakers and upholsterers are going to suffer far more privation than the heiress herself. And they usually are not rich men. The philosophy of life which says that it is too ostentatious to travel in a private railroad car during hard times forgets the extra employment that is provided for workers who might otherwise land in the breadline. The critics who disapprove of an heiress’ owning four fur coats, when other women have none, forget that the making and designing of each of those four coats provided work for persons who sorely needed it. Rich Should Be Encouraged to Spend There is a pitiless irony in the fact that some persons have capon and caviar, while others, equally worthy and industrious, are near to starvation. It is a tragedy which has been repeated, day after day, in every civilization since the Stone Age, and it is a tragedy which we would do well to eliminate. But you can not eliminate it by asking the rich to pretend that they are poor—to go around in shabby clothes as a sign of mourning for other persons’ poverty. You can eliminate it partly by encouraging the rich to spend and spend and spentt. keeping grateful tradesmen an(¥ waiters and chauffeurs constantly employed. We sympathize with the poor little heiress against whom so many harsh things have been said. We think that she has had an outrageous amount of power put into her small hands and that the difficulty of administering it wisely is immense. But we do think it is her duty, as well as her right, to buy herself as many diamond tiaras as her jewel case will hold.

If you have any helpful suggestions to add to Jane Jordan’s advice, write your letter to the column todav. Comment is always welcome, favorable or unfavorable. Dear Jane Jordan —My problem is caused by religion. I have been married nineteen years and have a lovely family. My husband is a great deal older than I but we got along grand until about two years ago when he became very religious. We used to play cards in the evening with the children. Then he joined the church and came home and tore the cards up. He made a raid on the magazines, burning them up or throwing them out until I gave him to understand that he must let my books alone. At that time we had a radio but it made him so nervous he said if I didn't send it back he would throw it out and break it. He wouldn’t listen to it unless it had church music on it. I gave up and sent it back. He goes to church every night, and if his church is closed he goes somewhere else, but always to church. In the evening he comes home and says hello, then goes upstairs and reads and sings and prays until dinner is ready. After he eats, he reads and sings and prays until time to go to church. After he comes home he stays in the kitchen and reads and sings and prays until about midnight. This is every day,

and sometimes I nearly go crazy just hearing him sing. He won’t talk to me nor to any one else unless it is about religion. Yet he is a wonderful man and has a good job and is just as good to us otherwise as he can be. I tell him he is no companion to me, and that I am still young enough to enjoy myself, but he says all he wants to do is his duty by the Lord. There is no other man in my life, but you do get mighty lonely like this. The youngsters and I make the best of it. We go to shows, and I have a friend who has a radio. We go there a lot in the evenings. In summer we go to the park, but this isn’t the way to live, and I am not satisfied at all. But I hav§ the children and we need a home, so what? TIMES READER. Answer—l feet that your husband has carried his religion to pathological extremes. Religion of any value helps the individual to live in the world as it is without completely ignoring the rights of other people.

! he hardly knows what it is him- ! self. He who places religion in opposition to his conscious sin has i done an excellent thing. But he who converts his life force into a form of fanaticism which comforts no one but himself, has done an ethically worthless thing. Consult some liberal and understanding clergyman about your I problem. He, if anyone, could get j at the bottom of your husband’s | difficulty, and influence him to put I religion to work in the actual solu- | tion of every-day conflicts, instead ; of using it for a flight from difficulties with which he now’ refuses . to deal. a tt a Dear Jane Jordan —I am desperately in love with a girl w’hom I have known for about two years. I know she loves me. We have planned to be married this summer. Before I knew her she had gone with a young man for about four years. For reasons I can’t explain here I feel certain that they were intimate a part of that time. I have never approached her with the subject and never will. I am not the type of person who demands virginity in a woman, but the fact that I know of this affair and also know who the man is, is having a peculiar effect on my mind lately. Do you believe she will make me a good wife? Will she always be true to me? I believe she will, but sometimes I wonder. Why. I don’t know. WORRIED. Answer—Very likely you are making a mountain out of a mole hill.

Nursery Board to Meet Board of managers of the Indianapolis Day Nursery Association will hold its monthly meeting at 10:30 tomorrow morning at the nursery home, 542 Lockerbie street. Mrs. R. A. Dennis will preside. love affair is not sufficient in itself to make you doubt her constancy. Unless she has some defect of character that you have not mentioned, you have no reason to doubt her emotional stability. I do think that it is essential that you talk this matter out with her. It is not wise to enter into a marriage when one of the parters is brooding over a dark secret. It is folly to be so afraid of the problem that you can not talk about it. Once the trouble is brought right out in the open I predict that your fears will vanish, if they are really unjustified. tt tt tt Dear Jane Jordan—l am very much in love with a fellow and he says he loves me. He makes good money and works very hard. The only bad habit he has is that he drinks. I have tried to get him to quit, but it seems like when he gets around the fellows de drinks. I am 30 years old and he is the first man I have ever loved. He is good to me and takes me any place I care to go, but I am wondering whether I should give him up or stick to him. There is really some good in him if I could get him to stop drinking. I hope you can help me. M. B. Answer—You do not say whether the young man drinks to excess, or whether you object because you have a deep-seated prejudice against the use of alcohol, even in moderation. Many fine, dependable men drink at times without deleterious effect on their conduct. If the young man is as unpleasant and disgusting person in his cups, you have every right to be fearful ol your future happiness. In case the young man really is a patholoigcal drunk, there is nothing you can do about it unless he himself recognizes his condition as undesirable and wants to be cured. You will save yourself years of misery by refusing to marry a man who ruins your mutual serenity by habitual sprees. But if you have overestimated the danger because of a prejudice, that is something else again. Which is tt?

, As it is your husband is making a desperate effort to exclude reality completely. For some reason he does not feel able to cope with things as they are, so he seeks to escape into a world of his own without regard to the people whom he leaves in the lurch. Some ter- ’ rifle sense of guilt has driven him to this step- Perhaps
