It is undeniable that married people quarrel because they enjoy it. For there is not one family row in a million that either one of tho belligerents could not have prevented by tlie use of tltt- sliyrhtcst lat-t. and self-control if he or she has so desired. They could huvc avoided the topics that they knew they differed upon. They could have side- stepped each others little prejudices. They could have given the soft answer that turns away wrath. but instead of doing so they deliber- ately dragged out on the carpet the subjects on which they knew beforehand that they would go to the mat. Thcy taunted each other Viiiﬁh their peculiarities and they hurled the fighting word at each o er.

Now if husbands and wives get more fun out of scratching out each other's eyes and biting and clawing than they do out of billing and cooing. they have a right to take their pleasure as they find it so long as there are no children. But when there are children whose lives are wrecked by their quarreling and \Vll0 have lo Spcnfl the balance of their lives paying for their father's and mother's dcvil dance. it is a different matter. Then the parents‘ quarreling becomes a crime.

DOES PERMANENT HARM

For it wrecks the children, mind and body. It kills all the care- free joy of childhood and makes ‘them brooding and pessimistic and cynical. It forces them to grow up in an atmosphere of liatc that is more deadly and poisonous than any mlasma. It makes iil( m neurotic and warps their characters. It slays their respect for their parents and causes them to leave home at the earliest possible moment. And in thousands upon thousands of cases it keeps them from marrying because their remembrance of their parents’ squabbles makes them believe that marriage turns husbands and wives into enemies who are not even ladies and gentlemen in their dealings with each other,

Of what; children suffer through the quarreling of their parents I can myself speak, for I get hundreds_of pathetic letters from girls and boys asking what they can do to make their parents quit fight- ing with each othcr. These children tell how wretched they are and how unhappy their homes are and that they have got so nervous that they can't study. "They say such terrible things to each other and they accuse each other of such awful things and there is nothing ever pleasant in our house. We have a nice home and a car and everything to make us happy if only our father and mother didn't quarrel all the time about nothing and ruin it all." wall these young- sters.

Surely if men and women would consider the effect of wrangling on their children they would, in pity, stop it.

Anonymous Letter Causes Political Controversy In ll. K.

By Alan Harvey

LONDON, Dec. 22 —(OP) _An anonymous letter on Junior Carl- ton Club stationery has created bad feeling between Socialists and Conservatives.

The letter. addressed ‘to Sir Sta-fwd Crisps as Chancellor oi the Exchequer. was mad at a political meeting 11y Hamid wit. son. president or the Board of Trade. It said:

“I refuse good business every day—s0od United States

business-because it is not worth the trouble and. expense and risk. So until you learn that All Work and no play makes Jack a du-ll boy. I will ; continue to refuse business." l

The Carlton Club. an excluslvei organization with 2.000 mom-bersl is associated with the Conservat-' lve Party. The club's chairman, Sir Ernest Cooper, issued a state- ment dissociating memibers 1mm the view expressed in the unsign. ed letter.

But socialists insisted that many British business men are refusing North American orders strictly out of spite against the Labor Government. Conservatives on the other hand were incensed that a Government Minister would draw public attention, for political pur- poses. to an anonymous letter.

The controversy also led to fresh charges by representatives: of British business that the Gov- ernment ploces too many obSiﬂcles in the path of companies export- ing to dollar countries.
