Describes ordeal by loansharks

WASHINGTON (UPI) — Tony Franchina’s job in Chicago did not pay enough to cover the hospital bills when he got sick. So he looked for a juiceman — underworld parlance for someone who lends money at illegally high interest rates — and wound up borrowing $300. It meant 10 per cent interest a week on the unpaid balance, but Franchina thought he could manage it. It was the only way out. But he couldn’t manage it, his wife Dorothy told the Senate Small Business committee. And it turned out the only way out was something else. The first I knew about it was a telephone call,” she said, “they told me to give him a message: ‘Just tell him he’s behind.’ “Then he had to go into the hospital and he told me I would have to make the payments. I asked why and he told me I must or something might happen — it was very complicated, he said. So I took the money to the Vic Damone pizzeria.” It was not enough, she found out a short while later when she opened the door and found Tony on the steps. “His face was broken, he needed 12 stitches in his face. You couldn’t recognize his face. He had to go to the hospital again.” She made another trip to meet the loansharks at the same pizzeria with what money she could manage. “I got an offer to become a prostitute to earn enough money to make the payments. I told h&i as long as I had two hands I would nover do that for a living. ‘Then one day at work I got a call and they told me I would have to make a payment or I would never see my boy again. I got money from my boss and rushed to pay them. I asked them where’s my boy and they said he would be home when I got there.” Five-year.old Michael, she said, told her two men had stopped and talked to him.

When it was all over, her husband had paid more than $1000 for the $300 loan—and Tony had put a bullet in his chest. “My husband finally killed himself—the sickness, the money, it all led up to it. I’m not a very brave person. I’m not going to say I’m not scared and nervous—I am. But if a woman ever had any hate in her heart, I have. “These people are worse than animals. They kill and maim not to survive but for pleasure. They’re only brave and strong when they force themselves on people who can’t fight back. “I wish to God someone would do something.” * * * The youngest First Lady in U.S. history was Julia Gardiner, when she entered the White House as the second wife of President John Tyler.

DEAR HELOISE: Do wonders never cease ? Every spring my husband and I drain our fish pond, clean it out and scrape off the sides after the slime has been hosed off. My husband always teases me about reading your column and trying out your various suggestions, as all he hears is, "Heloise says to do so-and-so . . So this year while he was tiding to scrape off the film with a wire brush, I calmly walked in the house and got a ball of your nylon net and proceeded to wipe the film off in NOTHING FLAT! He asked what in the world I was using. So I just handed him another ball of net and we cleaned the fish pond in short order. He said maybe I had better buy some more net and keep it on hand for another job. I nearly fell over laughing and replied, "That’s exactly what Heloise recommends.” Mrs. J. P. H. * * * Got by with that one, didn't you We even love you more for writing to us about it and tipping us off. Bless you both. Heloise * * * DEAR HELOISE: When packing dishes and glasses for moving, I used to use newspaper which is often messy. But now I've found by using paper sacks, that accumulate so fast, I saved myself a lot of work. I slip each piece into the appropriate size bag and they stay clean and pack easily, and require NO dishwashing later. I also put one or two empty egg cartons (open and upside down) in the bottom of the box. This cushions and helps prevent breakage. Sally Seity * * * In memoriam in loving memory of Albert “Bert” Leslie, who passed away 11 years ago today, May 18, 1957. His smiling face and pleasant ways Are a pleasure to recall; He had a kindly word for each, And died beloved by all. He left us a beautiful memory But a sorrow too great to be told To us who loved you and lost you Your memory will never grow old. Sadly missed by devoted wife, children and grandchildren. In memoriam In loving memory of Andrew Alexander who passed away, May 18, 1967. His life is a beautiful memory His absence a silent grief He sleeps in God’s beautiful garden In the sunshine of perfect peace. Sadly missed by the children and family.

DEAR HELOISE: Have you ever noticed that when using a box of cake mix how difficult it is to get all the lumps out of it after you have added the liquid? Well, my daughter suggested that we try beating the dry mixture for a few seconds fort adding the liquid. After doing this we found that there were no lumps in the batter at all. It even seems as though the cake is lighter and fluffier. Mrs. Raymond Overton * * * It was. I tried it. Thank*. Heloise

LETTER OF LAUGHTER DEAR HELOISE: What does one do when they discover that a superduper hint given them by a friend—who thought it was a keen one to send Heloise had been given her by a friend who had been given it by a friend who had a friend who read it in Heloise's beloved column or book? Confused? Well. I’m six shades of red and still blushing! So sorry!

DEAR HELOISE: I’m a young bride whose husband was drafted into the service recently. Since there are many in our families he will want to correspond with, I cut file cards to credit card size and on each one I typed the name, address, birthday and anniversary dates of those he will be most likely to write. The reason I decided on the credit card size is so that he can keep them in his wallet rather than carrying an address book. . t ->vv Fai^hfiil Now isn’t he lucky to have u thoughtful wife like you?
