It is time to give those who know what to do a chance to do It.” WANTS NURSE AND DOCTOR NEAR CITY HALL Marks Saw Difficulty in Emergency When No Medical Aid Was at Hand for Polk. Rorough President Mareus M. Marks of Manhattan, who has charge of the public buildings in the City Vall neighborhood, announced to-day that he is going to ask the Board of Eatimate and the Board of Aldermen to make provision for a physician and trained nuree, to he stationed in the Municipal Building. “L was in the office of President McAneny when Mr. Polk was shot,” aaid the Borough President. “On reaching the Plaza and learning that no physician had yet arrived to at- tend the wounded man 1 went through the crowd asking at the top of my Voice if there was a physician or @ surgeon nearby, I suppose there must have been 5,000 people around the City Hall, and not a doctor among, Mother-in-law ence .. teeeesees 18 oy Other men (accusations of husbands) ) 1a Cruel treatment. o After I read this table ( wondered how its conclusions tallied with the record of the Domestic Relations Court of Manhattan, ao I travelled to No. 161 East Fifty-seventh street for @ consultation with that experien student of married human nature, Chiet Clerk Henry P. Lewis. This ts the crux of Mr. Lewis's Judgment: Husbands and wives don’t get on together because they won't get on together. They ere un- willing to make allowances, te exercise common sense and cem- mon tolerance in their relations with each other, Many have never been trained in unselfish- nese and self-contrel. After mar- riage they quarrel as children quarrel, at with children, the blame must be divided fifty: fifty.” Mr, Lewis bad no exact statistics in marital unrest, for the very simple reason that he and his assistants handle approximately 10,000 cases per year and keep too busy fixing up do- mestic difloulties to figure them out in a eet table. But he thinks that the Brooklyn summary of immediate causes probably holds true ‘in Man- hattan. WHY DRINK APPEARS TO RANK IN THE CAUSES. “It seems to me that the state- ment that forty-five per cent, of the unhappy marriages are due to drink puts the case rather strongly,” be qualified, “Often drink is on¥y the surface cause of the disruption of the home. The husband goos to the saloona because ho isn't happy at home, and he jan't happy at home because hia wife hasn't lived up to her share of the bargain. “Not long ago a woman came 1 here to complain that her husband was drinking, losing one job after another and falling to support her had sufficient funde to do ite work the Children’s Court might be abolished.

She isn't necessarily moved by the weak senti- mentalism of which a! is #0 often accused. She simply doesn't want to put her children in an institution or see them atarve. WANTS THE CITY TO PAY WIVES OF PRISONERS. “While her husband is working on the Island, why should not the city pay this woman an adequate sum every week, so that she may keep her home and her children? Why can’t we have enough probation offi- cers to go into all the unhappy homes, show the husband and wife how to get along together and keep &@ careful eye on them until they work out a rational aoheme of life?” I agreed too completely with Mr. Lewia'a protest to try to answer it. Instead, I asked him another ques- tion which my table of statistics had suggested. “Is the mother-in-law almost a neg- Ngible factor in domestic difficulty?” “The mother-in-law te a good sort,” Mr, Lewis replied. “I have ueually found her ready te do everything she can ti toh up the domestic difficulties young per- eons in her family.

That day I eent Mahoney a money order in care of ‘Rose’ for the amount. “Two months later, when other let- ters from ‘Rosé’ came pouring into the rectory asking money on Mahoney's account, I became suspicious.
