DEAR JANE JORDAN: Just what 18% leant by “woman’s place is in’ the home, and how much influence should she have? I married a man who had a ‘house furnished, and I feel just like a house= keeper ‘and sometimes not even that welcome. He doesn’t like a
bedspread, he doesn’t: like: chairsets on arms and backs of re
even one I owned before I knew him.
He tells ‘me how to raise:the canary, a gift from my mother. He gays he must dictate to me and run his home or he can’t run his job. He feels TI should build fires, get in ceal and carry out ashes." I say since he never dries a dish or washes a window or helps me in any way, he can at least keep coal in and empty ashes.
I've never let my. dishes go, gone back to bed and read novels, smoked or ‘let the” house .go until recently, but-can I be blamed “if I lose interest? - I did bake and plan and hope I could have something to say about the house; but he seems to think he must run everybody. and everything. I feel like a nursemaid to an ill-bred, selfish, bossy 2-year-old child who is nearing 40. What kind of man would you say I've picked? ‘If I'd known what I do now I'd sure have stayed SINGLE. »
Answer—It takes only a slight exaggeration of perfectly normal traits to make a person conspicuous. This is the case with your husband. The majority of wives who read your letter will recognize some characteristics of the men they married in your complaint. It isn’t that your husband is so different from every other man. It is just that he is too insistent on the subject of his masculine superiority. = Every man worth his salt wants to play the leading role in marriage. He wants to be recognized as the head of the house, “to wear the pants” of the family. When his wife opposes him, he is apt to push too hard on his masculinity and assert himself in various irritating ways. Breathes there a man who likes to dry dishes and wash windows? Here and there you find one who will do so because his wife has made him feel her feminine fraility to such an extent that he wants to help her in her department of home. Such men are few and far between and they do not help with the housework because they lille it, but because some dependent and beloved woman charmed them into it. : On the other hand, the fire with its coal and ashes belong to your husband’s department, and it should not be insulting to his strength to do this heavy work. He carries his emancipation from ‘household duties-too far, and is entirely too bossy about your antimacassars and canaries. After all home is a woman's sphere, and - happy is the wife whose husband lets her run it. You want to know what kind of man you have picked. You have Dickey a man uncertain of ‘his own masculine strength or he wouldn't need to stress it so much. He may be in revolt against his mother who tried to turn him into a girl at home, or he may be copying a domineering father who identified his wife with a doormat. You'll have to re-educate him. This you can do by deferring to his superior status on all occasions, and by playing up your femininity as hard as he plays up his masculinity. When you struggle with him -for--control, it is. as if you were trying to “wear the pants.” Use your wits as: a charming woman instead of fighting for your Tights, « JANE JORDAN,

IF A SMALL CHILD gets tantrums, should we: A. Shake him? B. Throw water on him and call the doctor? C. . Quietly let him alone to wark it off? D. Give him what he wants, in order to have peace? ; Number three, or “C”, is right, as far as it goes, because the child has not only worked himself up to a point where he won't listen, but any encouragement only asks for a repetition of the performance. Tiny children, as we know, put on acts of various kinds in order to get their way. Occasionally jealousy is the cause. Yet there are other things. A child who has become over-tired on a shopping trip may take a tantrum in public because his. nerves have reached their limit of endurance. Excitement of any kind may result in a tantrum if the child is the nervous type. : But the mother intent on her shopping insists that he be a good
boy. him; but small children can’t’ understand movies and get 'bored and nervous by long sitting. Then comes the scolding, and the result is likely to be a tantrum. ” » 2 2 » t J
WHILE IT IS TRUE that tantrums are frequently due to bad temper, it ‘happens also that many such spells are justified on the grounds of decent resentment. The child is merely doing in his way what we would do in our way if we were constantly pestered and exasperated. Instead of throwing » book or cussing or banging " @ door, he lies down and screams. If you have a tantrum child in the family, first try to find out if he feels that he is too much hindered. But remember that the spoiled child may feel this way, too. If there is no real reason that you can see for the tantrum, then better pretend he is not having it. But if this has no effect after several recurrences, then there is likely to be something in his daily life that needs adjusting. The afternoon nap, if missed, may be the cause of the 5 o'clock spell. Indigestion makes older people nervous—why not children?
Maybe she takes him to the movies later, thinking it will rest

Boards. The contract had been tentatively
awarded Indian Refining, on ‘the basis of its low bid of 11.55 cents a
.| gallon. by a joint purchasing com-
mittee of City officials. Losche Gets Ruling Company officials said they con: sidered the award invalid because their bid had been made in error. They asked that the contract be awarded to the next lowest bidder and offered to pay - the difference between their price and the price
asked by the next bidder.
City Purchasing Agent Albert H.
City Attorney Michael B. Reddington that the City could not hold|. Indian Refining to the - contract, since the award, recommended by the joint committee, has not yet been ratified formally by each of the four City boards. Mr. Reddington advised that the City should collect the amount of money it will lose by the Indian concern’s withdrawal. The next low= est bidder is the Associated Service Co., Indiarapolis, at 11.64 cents a gallon, according to Mr. Losche.
Up to Four Boards
Mr. Losche estimated the difference between Indiana's and Associated’s prices at $144 for the four months: gasoline supply. . By paying this amount, Indian may avoid forfeiting a $500 check submitted with its bid to guarantee fulfillment of the contract. The Purchasing agent - said he would present the matter to each of the four boards, with the recommendation that Associated be awarded the contract provided Indian makes good the City’s loss. A contract for 10,850 gallons of premium gasoline was, tentatively awarded the Perine Oil Reflning Co., Indiana, last week when the award for regular was made to the Indian concern. The premium award also is subject to the apbroval of the city boards.

mer, the constable at one of Indiana’s crossroads solves the muftder of a prominent man with sciene tific deduction. He'll know what he’s doing, for the chances are he will have been trained by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which about Jan. 15 will ‘begin a series of schools in Hoosier cities designed to bring science to the help of every peace officer in the state. The course will run from 10 days to two weeks with instructors from the national Police Academy at Washington. Courses will be planned to meet the individual needs of each police department after consultations between the chiefs and B. Edwin Sackett, FBI agent-in-charge here. Primarily the officers will be trained to use s:ience’s weapons- in the crime war. “Officers will be taught how the FBI technical laboratory in Washington, although hundreds of miles away, can aid them,” Mr. Sackett said. . “They will be taught how to detect and protect valuable clues not apparént to the naked eye but which can tell a complete story to a scientist using a microscope. Foreign particles of dust or dirt pre|served .by an officer may lead to identifying a criminal.” Officers will be told how scientists examine evidence through the use of secret ‘photographic and microscopic processes. They will be shown how to protect such evidence at the scene of the crime. “This is as important to the patrolman as to the detective,” Mr. Sackett pointed out, “because : the former usually is first at the crime scene. Clues must not be destroyed.” Police will be taught the me= chanics of arrest. Mr. Sackett said that many officers are killed because of carelessness or lack of knowledge in this respect. The officers will be shown how to arrest two or more individuals, all heavily armed, without injury to themselves.
One of the ways this is done, he Spieined. is by the “wall {frisk. 2

An FBI. agent piri several persons known to be dangerous and
heavily armed orders them to lean]. against a wall, facing it, hands and| feet outstretched. This throws the :
suspects off balance. The agent, gun in hand, searches one while watching all. The, agent hooks one of his feet across the ankle of the suspect he is searching. The suspects. cannot possibly move without him seeing it, since both their hands and. feet are “spreadeagled.” If the man being searched should attempt to reach for a gun, the agent can throw him to the floor by using his foot as a lever. Officers will be shown how two of them in a car can overtake and arrest another car containing four or ‘more dangerous men all armed. Methods of arrest and search alse will be demonstrated in an hour-and-one-half-long sound motion picture made by the FBI. Each of-
ficer then will be given enough ac-|
tual practice to . make him. proficient. Instruction also will be given . in public relations. The FBI believes,
Mr. Sackett said, that the public will|
co-operate with police officers only
when officers have learned the right|
and wrong attitudes toward honest, law-abiding citizens, There is no place, he said, for discourteous and unreasonable peace officers. Hoosier police will be shown the proper methods of report writing
since FBI experience has shown that |" an officer who trys to keep facts in|
his head rather than on paper has a very poor recording system. Part of the course will be the study of local, State and Federal laws. Local and State law instruction will be given by the local prosecutors or judges and the Federal laws by Mr. Sackett. Instruction in: the appropriate methods of interviewing criminals as well as citizens and the psychological gspects of interviewing will be an important part of each course.
“The FBI neither practices nor|
condones third degree methods,” Mr. Sackett said.
More than a dozen Indiana cities have _anplied for the course.
