Job Holding by Wife May Harm Mate Depression Places Deep Mark on Some Idle Husbands. BY HELEN WELSHIMER SEA SfiTirt Staff Writer Dd cecile t la FOLLETTE. Os Columoia University, has recently completed a serious study of the domestic relations of 652 married women employed in 36 American cities. She has announced, as a result of her survey, that fulltime working wives are not g .*ing

a square deal fr< -n their husband. These women must be the bread-win-ners of necessity, since they are the employed members of thfir family, but Dr. La Follette says that their husbands too often expect working wives to cut the bread and butter it. too. There is much to be said in a plea

for the erring husbands. They are not lazy, for the most part. Defeated, yes. And disappointed. Their morale is lowered. The r eyes aren't so clear, their faces are thinner and their mouths have a grimmer line, if they are really fine men who want to support their families and have been deprived, through an economic catastrophe, of this responsibility. Naturally they are awkward and clumsy as they face unaccustomed tasks. Os course, they don’t see the work that is to be done any more than an untrained business woman, entering her husband s office, would understand the intricacy of its mechanism. Prejudice an Obstacle Then, too, there has been a prejudice against men who were interested in household tasks. The unemployed husbands have that barrier to hurdle, too. The very hope which keeps them waiting for a job to turn up, with true Micawbrian spirit, will prevent them from applying themselves whole-heartedly to bedmaking and dishwashing. No man wants to be supported by a woman. He wants the right to work, to pay his own way in cash, to contribute to society through an artive accomplishment. An unemployed husband suffers from lack of a channel in which to function as well as from acceptance of the enforced financial support given him. The last few years have been trying for unemployed husbands with employed wives. Women should exercise patience and Understanding and be peculiarly tolerant with the irrational tendencies, the nervous attitudes that have developed in many men. Graciousness Will Help Remember, men have a tradition behind them which is as firmly built as it ;s uniair. When sons and daughters in the same families are employed outside the home, though an equal :heck for board may be demanded from' each, it is always the daughter who is expected to don an apron and wipe the dinner dishes. The son is supposed to be tired after his day at the office. We recognize the unfairness of the situation, but we must realize that this situation of men withdrawing from household duties is nothing new. They have been trained to do so, unjust though it is. But the new order may result in a better partnership when the economic pendulum swings back to normality.

BEGIN HERE TODAY Treasure McGuire has got a lob as a hostess :n a cheap night dub Only 18 and ignorant of the world, this is the only work she can find to support her mother and her brothers and sisters, deserted bv a boorish father. At the night club Treasure wins the friendship of Oliver Keith pianist in the orchestra, and the enmity of Juanita Defoe, another hostess. Juanita hates Treasure for her youth her beauty, her Innocence —and more—because Rudolf Moiinarl. a handsome, rich young Italian has preferred Treasure to her. Rodoif has forced hi attention on Treasure. Learning that she enjoys dancing the tango, he has promisee to bring his younger brother to dance with 1 her. Treasure u amazed when he tips I her wi*h a $lO bill. •VOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER FOUR (Continued) WHEN the dance was finished he accompanied Juanita to her table where he ordered drinks for the three of them. Shortly after | this, although Treasure had scarcely uttered a word, he asked her to | dance. Warned by Juanita’s snapping eyes she refused, but Rudolf laughI ingly insisted. No sooner were they out of hearing than he murmured, I “What’s the matter with you? Why ; are you so scared?” “I’m not,” she denied. “You are,” he whispered in her ear. “Is it because of Juanita?” “I don’t want to make her angry,” Treasure admitted. He pressed her closer. “I’ll take care of that. Juanita’s mark is one which can easily be erased.” “Now what does he mean by that?” Treasure thought, flattered atr his interest, but certain it would not be worth rousing the other hostess’ jealousy. “We have a sort of unwritten law here,” she exclaimed. “I know all about that,” he retorted, “but if it’s you I’m interested in all the laws in the world can’t compel me to confine my attention to someone else.” He spoke as one accustomed to being obeyed and Treasure, accustomed to making herself agreeable, did not argue with him. “I happen to be fed up with women of Juanita’s type,” he continued lightly. “I’ve just returned from Spain, where the woods are full of them.” “You look Italian," Treasure ventured, hoping to change the subject. “So I am, but I have been traveling for almost a year.” “Oh!” she cried, interested now in spite of herself, “do you know how to dance the tango?” Rudolf laughed. “Not I! I hadn’t patience enough to learn, but you should see Tony dance it.” “Tony?” “My kid brother. He spent hours learning to do it properly.” “So did I,” she confided, “but I never meet any one who can do it with me.” The music had stopped now and Rudolf steered her to a table as far as possible from the one where Juanita was waiting. “Will you have a drink with me?” “I’d rather not if you don’t mind.” With smiling determination he pushed her into a seat. “I do mind, very much. Listen! If you’ll be very nice to me, I’ll bring my brother up here some night next week. Hafs wishing for a tango partner." “Oh, will you? I’d love that. It’s the most fascinating dance in the world,” the girl cried, forgetting for a moment the pair of black eyes staring from across the room. Later she regretted that promise and her own acceptance, for Rudolf would not permit her vo leave. When she attempted to excuse herself he called Mr. Fernando saying jokingly, “What am I going to do about this. Pete? The young lady doesn’t want to drink with me." Pete’s fat eyes glared from his fat little face. “So? What’s the idea?” “She seems to be under *he impression that I belong to someone else.” “Nonsense,” Pete said irritably, still glaring. “That’s what I told her,” Rudolf insisted. Treasure flushed, attempted to speak and faltered into silence. What was the use? Pete was already annoyed. And Pete, not Jua-

j nita. was her employer. Besides she i needed the money Rudolf was now tucking inside her clenched fist. It was a bill which meant food —the luxuries—perhaps her mother had been craving. Valiantly she smiled into the dark eyes across from her. “Thank you very much,” she said. “That’s very sweet of you.” She was amazed when she saw that he had given her a $lO bill. CHAPTER FIVE MEN weren’t giving away $lO bills :n San Francisco in 1933. As Dorothy assured her afterward it simply wasn’t being done. Five dollars was an exorbitant amount to bestow upon a dancing partner. Only once to Treasure’s knowledge had any of them received that much. Yet this strange Italian had given her twice that much for only one dance. “He’s probably made a mistake,” she decided. “Maybe he thought it was a dollar.” She suggested this reluctantly because already the things that bill could buy for her mother were heaped in piles before her eyes, but Rudolf Molinari laughed. “No mistake, sweetheart! I knew what I was giving you and I am not drunk.’ In that case there certainly Could be no objection to her keeping it but Treasure still felt guilty about it. She knew she hadn’t done anything to warrant a tip like that and she had an uncomfortable premonition that her acceptance of it might obligate her in the future. Rudolf’s velvety black eyes, his full lipped sensuous mouth, brightly red beneath a dark mustache, were all attributes of one who would not be denied. Although infinitely more experienced and better bred there was something in his manner which reminded her of Carlos but she was in more awe of him than of the South American. There was a ruthlessness about him which she suspected would make him cruel to any one who attempted to stand in his way. She also feared Juanita. At the moment however there seemed nothing to do about it except hope that his interest would prove temporary. If he had so much money he would have any number of other diversions beside a poor little night club hostess, reasoned Treasure. On their way home that night she confided the incident to Oliver. “Pete was telling us about it,” Oliver said. “It seems he used to have a crush on Juanita before he went away. You know who he is, don’t you?” “I never heard of him before.” “His father owned one of the largest factories in San Francisco. He’s dead now.” He gave me $10,” Treasure confessed, eager to have Oliver’s opinion. “Maybe I shouldn’t have taken it.” “Why not?” “Don’t you think he may expect a lot in return?” “Let him,” Oliver advised. “That’s just to be his hard luck if he does.” She had no more qualms then and immediately began to make plans to go to the grocery where Terry worked and lay in a supply of special luxuries for her mother. “She doesn’t eat enough to keep a bird alive,” Treasure thought running up the steps of her home eager to tell Ellen of her good fortune. n n a SHE opened the door to the sight of Mike McGuire seated the most comfortable chair before a blazing gas grate. His shoes were off; his stockinged feet propped upon another chair. The remains of a meal—bacon and eggs and fried potatoes—were on the table. He was smoking his pipe. Treasure surveyed him with silent scorn. She neither spoke nor moved until he shouted, "Shut the door! What’s the matter with you anyway? You look as if you were seeing a ghost.” Treasure obeyed and started for the bedroom. “Just a moment,” he bellowed. “What do you mean sneaking in after 1 o’clock?” The girl’s eyes blazed in her white, defiant face. “I wasn’t sneaking,” she said in her husky voice. “Don’t talk back to me or big as you are I’ll thrash you,” he threatened. . “Where is mother?” Treasure asked apprehensively. “Where you should be at this time of the night. In her bed. Now then answer me, what have you been doing?” Unconcealed contempt was In her reply. “I’ve been supporting the family.” Her father, who prided himself on his sense of humor, threw back his head and laughed. “Oh you have, have you? Doin’ what?” “Dancing,” the girl said briefly. “That’s a likely story.” “It’s true,” she flushed. “You can ask mother.” “Well that’s fine then,” Mike Mc- | Guire retorted. “I can use a little ! money right now. Give me your i pocketbook.” Instinctively her hands had gone behind her back. „ “Give it to me,” he repeated, lumbering toward her in his thick stockinged feet. She could have killed him as he

stood there, but there was no al- | ternative but to hold it out to him. “It’s for mother,” she pleaded, j “She's been so sick.” “You’re telling me,” he growled. | “Hey, what's this? Where did you get $10?” “I told you.” “Why you little liar,” he said pocketing the bill. "I've a good mind to throw you out.” That any man could live and be so cruel! That God could let him live, she thought, staring at him with unflinching eyes. But, appeased by the money, Mike returned to his chair. “It's lucky for you I happen to be in a good humor tonight,” he said mildly. “Get to bed now. What are you waiting for?” Only her eyes expressed the loathing which flooded her heart but in spite of his command she did not go to her room. Instead she walked into her mother’s, where Ellen lay looking like death. Afraid to speak lest she should burst into tears Treasure knelt beside the bed and kissed the poor, tortured face, but her mother lay as if turned to stone. Alarmed by her impassivity Treasure whispered her unfailing message, “Never mind, mama!” The blue lips moved but she could not hear what they saiA “What did you say. dear? Tell Treasure ” the girl begged *z if she were talking to a child. “Don’t leave me,” whimpered Ellen. Fiercely the girl’s arms tightened about her neck. “I won’t.” “He’ll be mad,” Ellen cried hysterically. “I’ll fix it, mama! Leave ’t to me,” Treasure, promised. Boldly she walked into the living room. “Mama’s not so well tonight,” she said colorlessly. “I think I'd better sleep with her. You can have my bed.” Mike grunted and a moment later the door was bolted behind her. Deliberately she had played upon her father's weakness. If there was anything he detested, it was, as he often said, “an ailing woman.” The fact that Eleen was undeniably in that condition and likely to remain so for some time made him not unwilling to exchange places with his daughter. After a month of roving he felt the need of undisturbed rest and he made no objection when the arrangement continued during the first week after his return. Treasure had boasted that he was one of the best mechanics in San Francisco. Proof of her statement lay in the fact that the very next day he was taken back to work at his old shop. He proved at the same time that he was not so set as he had pretended to be about Treasure’s occupation. u tt u SHE was permitted to go to the night club unmolested and after that first night he made no attempt to take what she earned. Although she, doubly cautious now, gave half of everything she made to Oliver, who returned it to her on Saturday when she spent it on her mother and anew dress for herself. The dress was “a honey,” Oliver said. It had much more style than any Treasure had worn before. She hadn’t been at the night club for a month without improving her clothes sense. The dress clung closely to her slender hips and subtly defined the long sweet line from waist to ankle. Above it her face was like a flower. The pale gold of a lily shimmered in her hair. She moved with dignity and grace j about the dingy night club and a I few wondered to see her there. A ! slim alien angel dancing with mortal men, most of whom were un- | aware of any difference between j her fragrant loveliness and that of I the other two girls. For men judge women by their environment and the fact that they were night club hostesses definitely placed all three in the same category so far as the average male was concerned. To these she was a delectable little dancing partner, a delicious morsel of flesh with whom for a consideration they were permitted to dance. Oliver Keith, of course, knew better. Had suspected it from the beginning. Pete Fernando, also knew, while the other two girls were only tcc* conscious of it. Dorothy looked upon her with an amusement bordering on awe but Juanita, who had disliked her from the first, was, now an active menace. Warned by Pete to “lay off” if she knew what was good for her, Juanita had made no move as yet but her expression when she looked upon the younger girl held the glittering fascination as a serpent preparing to strike. Rudolf Molinari had not kept-his promise to return to the night club that next week but Juanita suspected that sooner or later he would come and when he did one false move on Treasure's part and it would be “just too bad.” She told this tc Dorothy who, as Juanita had intended, relayed it to Treasure. “She's one gal who means what she says, too,” Dorothy added, j cheerfully. “But what can I about it?” Treasure demanded. They were sitting at their accustomed table on a Monday night when business was worse than usual. Even -the orchestra played as if it were on its last legs. Oliver had told Treasure t! ey were going to leave as soon as Pete paid what he owed them. Tonight he thumped the piano mechanically. Treasure gazing at him, wished she could ask his advice as to what reply to make to Juanita's veiled threat. “I don't want Rudolf Molinari.” she protested to Dorothy. "But if Pete insists on my being nice to him, what can I do?” "Discourage him.” “I did. Maybe that’s why he hasn’t come back,” Treasure said hopefully. She had no sooner spoken than she looked up to see him standing : Inside the door. (To Be Continued)
