Q&pahtosi
DO YOU WANT YOUR WIFE
TO WORK AFTER THE WAR?
"Hoi I believe a
man's place
is in the
home and
since I wi-
ll be able
to provide
for both of
us,(I hope)
there will
not be any necessity
for her going to work,"
replied Pvt. John Will-
son, of Los Angeles,
Calif.
Pfc. Cleo H. Greene
of Harlan,
Ky., said,
"I have a
two-year-o-
ld daughter
and I beli-
eve my wife
has a full
time job
taking care of her and
our home. I want her
to continue doing just
that, after the war."
"Of course not," ans-
wered LAG
Norman King
of Syden-
ham, Eng-
land. "I
married my
wife to lo-
ok after me
and I am
glad to say she is of
the same opinion. The-
re are enough men to do
the work!!
"Well, my wife had to
work after
I came in-
/ \ to the Ar-
fem), but
certainly
do not want
her to con-
Skflfigl tinue to,
MHPHIMB after the
war. 1 think most wo-
men are happier making
a home than out working
at least, I hope wp wi-
fe will be," Sgt. Ber-
nard Balbourgh, of Det-
roit, Mich., musingly
replied.

TheAmerican Scene
OMAHA, NEB. - Promising the "biggest and best"
Dog Catcher's Ball, poundmaster Chris Christen-
sen is all set for his fifth annual event on
behalf of neglected dogs. The ball will pay for
licenses for pets of persons unable to buy
them. The new uniform - gift of an admirer-
which Chris will wear at the ball is olive
green with three "general's" stars. On the left
sleeve are gold "hash marks" indicating the
number of political campaigns he has weathered,
while on the left shoulder is a gold brocade
dog in a round patch.
CHEYENNE, VTYO. - U.S. Marshal A.a. Sanders
recently received the following reply from
Mrs. John Dockter of Wheatland, Wyo., whose
husband had been summoned for special jury
duty: "Dear Sir - My husband is somewhere in
the South Pacific with the U.S. Navy. I know
he would be delighted to come home and be a
juror. We can dream, can't we?"
TACOMA, WASH. - Someone with a destructive
sense of humor kidnapped a bulldozer in Tac-
oma's Lakewood ice arena area early one morning
and tore up a lot of good road as well as a
large portion of the countryside. Police, sent
after the "kidnapper" in a squad car, found the
road so badly torn up they had to proceed on
foot. They found acres of ground ravaged and
trees uprooted. Through the dark and fog they
could hear the bulldozer continuing merrily ac-
ross country, but couldn't get to it. the mach-
ine was found abandoned the next day.
WASHINGTON, D.C. - The Treasury Dept, has re-
vealed the story of David Fixman, alias Dave
Strauss, wh# sold $843,000 worth of nylon stoc-
kings that didn't exist to certain midwestern
stores. Fixman went around telling store mana-
gers that the stockings were going to be made
from 10,000 pounds of yarn that the Army had
rejected. Although there was no such yarn, many
gullible citizens swallowed Fixman'a sales talk
and paid off in real cash. When Fixman finally
failed to make good on a $9 order to a woman
hotel employee she turned him in and explained
to police that 3he had known him as a former
railroad worker and had "no use for railroad
men" because her former husband had been one.
Fixman is currently spending his time in jail.
TUCKAHOE, N.Y. - While assembling the in-
gredients for a cake which she contributes
to a local church's annual cnarity bazaar,
lir3. Paul Compton discovered that the recipe
called for half a pound of butter. It seemed
"sinful" to Ur. Compton to put that much
butter into a cake these days, so she wrapped
up the butter and sent it to the bazaar in-
stead. At auction, it brought $12.95 - about
$10 more than is usually paid for a cake.
PORTLAND, ORE. - Unable to get any cigarett-
es, four women war workers here are puffing
away on pipes - and urging other women to
follow suit. They were asked if pipe smoking
made them sick. "Well," coughed Mrs. Alma Hunt
as the girls began their fourth day of it,
"Not much."
