In the Lowlands. Adolf Hitler's blitzkrieg In Scandinavia brought Justified fear to Dutch and Belgian hearts. It was learned authoritatively authorita-tively that the Nazis delivered a virtual ultimatum to both countries, informing them that any attempt to place themselves under British-French British-French protection would serve as the signal for an Immediate lightning light-ning attack. Strict censorship was clamped down In both countries, while Britain's War Czar Winston Churchill hinted In a speech to the house of commons that the allies expected this to be the next site of Nazi aggression. In the Balkans. Significantly silent was Germany's axis partner. Italy, but a fast developing crisis In the nearby Balkans held great potential danger. Same day as German troops reached Oslo. Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels charged the British with sabotaging Germany's Germa-ny's Danube river outlet to southeastern south-eastern Europe. Precipitously, the next 24 hours found Russian troops massing on Rumania's Bessarablan frontier, while Hungary. Jugoslavia and Bul-garii Bul-garii received simultaneous ultimata from Germany: Give us control of all Danublan shipping. Danger here was that the allies might consider this unneutral bringing war into the Balkans. A few hours later it was learned without confirmation that the allies had placed mines In every British-French-owned oil well in Rumania, Ru-mania, threatening to blow them up if the Germans or Russians invaded. in-vaded.

By KATHLEEN NORMS WHEN the mother of a 10 or 18-year old girl advises her against doing something, or warns her about It she la usually actuated by pure affection and loyalty loy-alty to her daughter. She knows that the years between 18 and 25 are the years when a woman who Is Indiscreet, reckless, Inexperienced, can throw away all the happiness of her later years. Thousands of girls do, and live to regret it for the rest of their lives. But somehow they never will believe be-lieve that their mothers are right mother Old-Faahloned.' "My mother hasn't the least Idea of how things are today." they write me. "Mama is so old-fashioned that It's perfectly maddening. Mama thinks the most innocent things are dangerous. Mother doesn't want me to have any fun. My mother is always afraid of what the neighbors will think." Any explanation of her anxieties will do, except that she is your mother, and loves you. and wants you to grow safely to honorable and happy womanhood, and not make mistakes. "My mother talked to me the night before I was married," writes a Pennsylvania woman, "and if I'd taken her advice seriously I might have spared myself the misery I'm in today. But I always thought of Mother as stralghtlaced and fussy, and I didn't pay much attention. She told me always to put Len first in everything, and like all brides, I did make a great fuss over him at first We had a dear little boy and were very happy for the first few years. Knew Billy as GirL "Then a man I will call Billy turned up. I had known him as a girL and we had had a pretty exciting ex-citing love affair, of which I bad told Len. Nothing wrong, but we had been engaged, and I thought Len ought to know. "Mother had never liked Billy, partly because ha is divorced, partly part-ly because he is quite a sport But he is very attractive to women, and when he shewed that he still admired ad-mired me I didn't mind making Van a little jMious. This worried Mother Moth-er terribly, for she adores Van. "Whan Billy went away after a short visit be asked me to correspond corre-spond with him. He sent me books and articles, once a beautiful handkerchief, hand-kerchief, and once perfume. His letters were amusing and admiring and I answered them, saying a good deal more than I really felt This was about a year ago. We wrote each other about every 10 days, so I suppose he has at least 30 of my letters. Bill's Lawyer Appears. "Yesterday a lawyer from Bill's town called on me with a great deal of discretion and secrecy that drove me nearly mad. He says that Bill's wife has gotten possession of these letters. Never having dreamed that he was married at all, I was shocked beyond words. I said that I had not known that Mr. D. was married, whereupon this horrible man said, 'But you knew you were, didn't you?' She wants $1,500 for the letters or she will sue for divorce, di-vorce, naming me. Some of these letters I signed 'Your-little-wife-that-should-have-been,' and others the pet names he had given me in his letters. Our actual relationship was always strictly within- the bonds of. morality, of course, . .,, . , "I did not close my eyes last night and I am half frantic today. At first this lawyer said he would be here until I decided what to do, but he telephoned this morning to say he is going back to Trenton, and will wait to hear irorn me. Wha t maddens me was that 1 have never been in love with Bill, but only enjoyed this correspondence as a sort of romance. My husband and child are my very lifeblood, and any thought of trouble at home breaks my heart. I do not even know that Bill is married; it may be that he needs money and trusts he will get it this way. For the sake of a home, a good husband and an innocent inno-cent baby do, do help me find some way out!" Thrills at an End. Poor Joan, she has had whole rear of flattery and excitement and WNU Service.) Warning to Wives Here is a warning to young wives of 1940, who think they eon eat their cake and have to to. Many young wive, according to Kathleen Kath-leen N orris, seem to feel that once the security of a home and husband is their"i they can put that security on the shell and start looking around (or new playthings. But that style of living doesn't always work out. Sometimes the little lady gets burned. Mothers still insist that their young daughters daugh-ters who are married should put friend husband first in their hearts. But the daughters often think that Mother is old-fashioned and doesn't know about "modern" men. Usually though, they learn that Mother is right. Naturally it's all right to know men other than your husband but "affairs" no matter how innocent are out. And if the mistake is ever made if Mrs. Young Wife does engage in an "affair" she had better tell Hubby and start all over again. Unless she does tell him she isn't playing fair and when she eventually eventual-ly gets caught it may be too late. the thrill of a secret love affair, she has made nothing of Len's rights and Len's dignity, and now she expects ex-pects to be extricated from it in a few minutes I The mischief has been far too long in building for that Her only way out Is one of humiliation hu-miliation and courage and risk. Joan has been stuffing greedily on poisonous sweets for 12 whole months. Now for emetics and castor cas-tor oil and general wretchedness. For she will have to tell the whole story to her husband at once, and have him get in touch with some friend in Trenton, or some city authority, who can find out exactly what the engaging Billy's marital status is. If he really is married, then Van. Joan's husband, might write him, remind him that he has some letters from Joan, and ask their return. This may work, inasmuch in-asmuch as Billy may not want trouble with his wife over them, should Joan turn the tables and inform in-form her of anything that has been going on. If Billy isn't married, the matter Is comparatively simple. Joan's husband may ask for the letters, thus showing Billy that he knows of their existence, and so spiking Billy's guns on blackmail. Then forget the whole thing. Joan Mast Confess. Whatever the outcome, Joan's complete confession to her husband must be the next step. "And Is it a crime to write to a man when you're married to another?" an-other?" many a young wife who is playing with the same sort of fire may indignantly demand. No, but the advice of Joan's mother was good advice. Put your husband first Don't do anything that you wouldn't like him to do. Keep your men friends, of course. But keep them as a wife, not a flirt Act like a woman embarked upon a serious business, not a free lance still in the market for affairs. There's no law against writing letters, affectionate, affec-tionate, romantic, emotional, to a married man. There's no law against making a complete fool of yourself. There's no law against living on chocolate cake and sleeping sleep-ing in a bathtub. Terrible Alternative. For a long time after this scalding scald-ing experience Joan will be a very meek and .devoted, little. wfe, Sh?:il. have to be. The alternative, di-yprce, di-yprce, anjd. the, surrender .of., hex child, as being an unfit mother, is too "expensive." A few of those "little-wife-that-should-haye-bcen'' letters would convince any court of domestic relations that Joan was a pretty flighty parent She's now put a strong weapon lntOvVan's hands. For months, perhaps for years;" he won't believe anything she says. If she demonstrates affection fot him, if she cuddles the small boy, praises her home, expresses herself as hap-py, hap-py, Vanmay look on with a cold and unconvinced eye. . So don't despise mother's suggestions, sugges-tions, you younger girls. They have been won from that same hard school of experience that you have to face. They form that most valuable valu-able possession that a wife or any other woman can have. The impalpable, im-palpable, undeflnable, indispensable thing called CODE. SALESMEN rr atOT!
