LETTERS TO EDITOR He Criticises the Wives Editor ‘The Star: In The Star I read an editorial “If Net, Why Not, Seattle Hus band?” which was interesting in deed. Since you are asking ques tions, kindly permit me to indulge In @ little friendly criticism of said editorial If we want to eradicate an evil Which Is eating deep into the life of our people we must be very, very frank and truthful and cut oul We sugar-coated pilia, Marriage will always be successful when the husband provides for his family and tends strictly to his busi fess outside the home, while the wife takes proper care of the home, which includes washing dishea. A husband shoul) be regarded as a human being, not @ truck horse, by his wife. The home to him should be a place of rest, not a work shop. The woman who is afraid of wash- ing dishes has no business to marry. May I, Mr. Féitor, ask~you in all sincerity, Do you regard woman as a higher being?

Inside Limits, Retorts Gardner Editor The Star: I noticed in Friday's tesue of The Star a letter from a Mr. Robinson, in which he rebukes me for even expecting “police protection,” unless we live in the downtown district. ¢ He states that said “offenses,” (not crimes) agaist women took place eutaide the jurisdiction of Se attle police forces. By. just. what process of regson ing (1) he arrived at this conclu sion I do not I called up two.gttorneys and one councilman and they say that Seat Ue police protection is suppesed to lextend to the city limits, Now as we are three-fourths of « mite inside said limits, “How does he get that way?” I wonder if he ts a “cop” or a | political friend of Searing? Yours truly, kK D. GARDNER, 6142 40th ave, N. EL Totem Pole Needs Washing Editor The Star: Hundreds of tourists visit the L. C. Smith building tower every day and they are shown the city by Dan Preston. I suppose no man is doing more than he to “sell Seat tle.” He is @ regular booster, too. and has never been heard to knock anything or anybody. When he makes a suggestion it should be given instant considerauon. | Totem pole hasn't been painted this | several years.

Yours truly, JOHN GILCHRIST, Livingstone, Mont Would Exploit City’s Attractions Editor The Star: Having been a resident of Seattle since 1915, and having this city at heart, perhaps more than the usual run of new residents, I have given considerable thought to advertising Seattle constantly.
