|—A water famine and fears of an epidemic spread today through the Imperial Valley, where an earthquake cracked the “life line” Alamo Canal during the week-end. The earth tremors began Saturday night and lasted until early yesterday. At least eight persons were killed. Property damage was estimated at millions of dollars. The desert was overrun by contaminate {ed water spilled from broken mains

| Offers 'Foolproof' Relief System
WASHINGTON, May 20 (U.P). ~Charles H. Moss, 30, Memphis, Tenn, offered a “foolproof” reliet scheme.
Under his plan, a 1 per cent sales tax would be levied exclusively for Federal charity pur=poses. A citizen requesting aid would address a penny postcard appeal to the Treasury Department's charity bureau asking for "'proportionate charity” based on his own estimate of his needs. The Bureau then would give the applicant a proportion of what he asked on the basis of sales tax revenues. The Treasurer, utilizing the same postcard applying for aid, would send the applicant a cer=tified check—by perforating the post card. Mr. Moss’ scheme faced one major obstacle—his state's Con-
and irrigation ditches. Officials estimated that there was| only enough drinking water to last | - 10 days. In Brawley, which almost | was destroyed, the City Council or- | |dered that only water necessary to ‘sustain life would be turned on for | two hours a day.

| CHICAGO, May 20 (U. P).— Milk was spilled over highways and | two men were reported shot today in violence that accompanied the | second shutdown of milk deliveries in three weeks because of a wage |dispute between the Associated | Milk Dealers and union wagon { drivers. Deliveries were halted yesterday when the 4000 members of the A, F. of L. Milk Wagon Drivers’ Union charged the dealers had imposed a “lockout” by posting a wage scale that cut drivers’ pay from $48 and commissions per week to $30 and commissions a week. State Police reported that Walter Dobroth, 42, Chicago, had been shot in: the left arm during a free-for-all fight near Volo, Ill. Capt. Philip | Renkosika said he was informed that another man had been | wounded.

Answer—It would be helpful to know just why your husband irritates you. Could it be that you condemn in him those faults which you have partially or completely overcome in yourself but which still require loud condemnation to keep them from cropping up? I mention this because it is & very human failing to berate in others those things which we fear in ourselves. When we love we identify ourselves with another so that the loved one serves 8s an alter ego, or other self. When our own faults crop out in the other it is particularly irritating to be obliged to cope with them all over again. We aren't so forgiving with others as we are with ourselves. It may be that it is yourself you are nagging in the guise of your husband. In this case vou would be a better wife if you would put the blame where it belongs. This is only a guess, of course. Another view of the same situation is that you may be an active, aggressive character whereas your husband is on the passive side. That is, you are something of & driver whereas he is & come-easy, go-easy type. Perhaps you push him bevond his psychological means, hoping that he will attain the things for vou which vou haven't been able to get for yourself. When vou explode over little things it may be because you have Kept silent about the major issue, namely, the fact that he hasn't much of & job. f only he would succeed in & big way you could overlaok minor issues such as his carelessness about clothing. Satisfied wives do not pick on their husbands for little things but learn to laugh them off. After all who cares about the eccentricities of a strong man? I wonder if it wouldn't do you good to get a job? It would give you an outlet for your managerial tendencies which you now direct toward your husband. If you had something to take your mind off your discontents you might not nag at your husband so much. You know that your husband has many virtues which you consider wonderful. Not every wife can say as much. “Do try to occupy yourself with something else so that you won't be constantly en-

Boy Thwarts | Store Holdup
Eleven-year-old Donald Wheeler was a hero in the eves of his 6B mates at School 27 today because he thwarted a holdup in the grocery of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Wheeler, 1665 Bellefontaine St. When one of the bandits pointed a gun at his mother in the store Saturday night and the other seized her arm and pushed her toward the cash register, Donald grabbed the gunman's arm and pulled the gun away from its menacing position. The cash register locked as one of the men tried to open it. | About that time Mr. Wheeler | entered from a rear room and the bandits ran, Attempting to halt their flight, Donald tripped one of them, but the bandit regained his feet and escaped with his companion.

Decidedly young, and just as fresh-looking as a spray of apple blossoms, this frock (8680) will be lovely in silk print or flat crepe, with &iry white frills.

The full skirt, little | pairs of buttons down the front and sash bow add to the youthful charm of this frock. With your big hat and patent shoes, it will make you look as if you had stepped from the pages of the latest fashion book—and it proves once more that to get real individuality as well as newness, you'll be wise to make your own.| A step-by-step sew chart makes the easy pattern even easier.
