NOT HOME Atlanta Wife Has Rough Hubby Jailed For Mistreating Her. IENTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE ATLANTA, Ga,. Sept. -- When F nk Johnson "crowned" his wife with black jack in a restaurant Mrs. Ethel Johnson decided that cave man love goes better in novels than in real life. Now she is advocating that all married women stick together for their marriage rights, particularly abolition of the rough style "affection." Although a prison cell has brought apparent repentance to the recalcitrant husband and he promise to do better if site will withdraw the charges against him, Mrs, Johnson turns a deaf ear to his appeals.

Otherwise 'tis a jailhouse and a dark prison cell for friend husband. That's what I say, anyhow."

In a letter to her from Jail Johnson wrote: "Sweetheart, if you have a heart, please come to see me, for I love you. I will never give you one minute's trouble if you will come down here. Please don't make me stay here any longer. . . . Darling, please bring me something to eat. We have corn bread and syrup for tweak--fast in a tin can; corn bread and rice for dinner, and no supper. . . I am in one lonely dark cell and I never get to see anybody but a negro cook. . . . Sweetheart, if I do get out I will never bother you again. I will get a Job and go to work" "Can you beat it?" was her comment. "I have no dependence in him. We have "been married only a short time, but during that interval he has terribly mistreated me and I have been putting up with it. hoping that perhaps some day he woud get over his cave man tac-
