BETTE DAVIS Story (continued from page 1) life of the Hollywood Canteen Foundation, the other seven being people high in the Film Industry) other members of Musician Local 767 (colored) as well as colored matrons, young hostesses and en tertainers to help in the Canteen. The colored volunteers were on hand during all the years the Can teen existed, and all were pleased with the democratic attitude they found there. On one occasion right at the start i a discussion arose because colored servicemen and women were NOT segregated. The colored volunteers took no part in the argument, they Sin.ply sat by and listened. In hor. rified tones, one white woman re ported to Miss Davis that there was no segregation or discrimination, the colored soldiers and the v.-hi'.e soldiers were doing the same thing,, were friendly with everyone and that something ought to be done a bout it. Instantly Miss Davis replied, "That's fine_encourage it. We have a Democratic American insti tution ar.d we want to keep it that way.” John Garfield chinned in with the remark that colored col diers were making the same sacri fices as white soldiers and should have the same privileges. Then Film Director, Mervyn Leroy said in no uncertain term* that be d re sign f anyone were to start any unAmerican discrimination in the Hollywood Canteen. Mr Garfield and Miss Davis thought that was a good idea, so they said they’d re. sign too. The fight lasted only a short while during this one even ing. When ended, the victory be longed to Davis, Garfield, Leroy and American Democracy, for nev er after that was segregation even suggested for the Hollywood Can teen. Now- in allowing her name to be identified with the Urban League Bette Davis has again shown that she is a responsible citizen and a truly broad person. Her action should encourage other people to study and take seriously the events and problems of the day. and to work on them with the best inter ests of the community at heart. with good success, as it is all for one and one for all.

Box 11, Atlanta 1, Georgia i. —juayoe you can give me some helpful advice. I am IS years of age and am in love with a young man 3 years my senior. I know he loves me and we want to get married. This man has been married once. Do you think there will be anything wrong if I marri. e<j him? People joke me about him but they they knew how awfully sweet he is to me, they would prob ably understand. We have brought this proposal before my people. At first they left it to us, and then they heard such rumors, as people often do hear. an<j they suddenly changed their minds. Do you think it would be too wrong if we were secretly married over their protest? You see. we love each other desper ately. j Ans: Secret marriages are wrong I Marriage makes it right for two people to live together openly and Should never be shroude<j into se crecy. When you marry( do so op enly and in the eyes of all who know you. There must be some specific reason for your parents to change their mind about this young man as they hawe done. Postpone any thoughts of marriage until you have had ample time to get to the bottom of these . rumors and thrash the matter out. The fac that he '.as been married once before is e. nough to make your parents a lit tle dubious of him, but if he can convince them beyond a doubt that he is sincere, they will see your side of the issue in time. L. C. T_I have been married two years and my husband is over seas. He was the first and only boy I went with and the only one I ever loved. Since he has been gone I have fallen in love with a man 17 years older than I and has a wife and children. He’s a gambler with a bad reputation. At first he was very sweet and came to see me 3 times a week but now I only see him once a week. I have tried to quit him, but when he eomeg a round, I can’t resist him. 1 can't go out with him because of his wife and she is really jealous of he and I. Should I stop going with this man, and if so how can I? Ans: Of course you must stop going with this man, as you well know if you are to find any happi ness at all and keep your self-res pect. Take stock of yourself and be fair enough to admit that you are getting nothing from this sord id affair and you will be more than glad to cast him aside.

Send 2Z->; for same and be sure to include your full name correct birthdate and address. You may also present three problems. 3:- r * M. E. P_I am bringing you my problem. I am married to a sold ier. He is 38 years old and I am 22. This is my worry; I am young and like to go out sometimes but my husband doesn’t want me to go any pluc§. Tie treats me real nice. 1 have no cofnplaint there. But the camp has dances out where he is stationed quite often but he won’t let me go. He said it isn’t nice for a married woman to go to places like tbat. Now I have put up with this for u year and nine months and I am tired of it. I want a little pleasure. I don’t have any child ren or anything to hold me down and I want your help. Ans: Pleasing your husband is by far more important to you than go ing out dancing. If you were to go against his wishes he would be come thoroughly disgusted and you might lose him. At the pres ent he’s in service and can’t live with you or carry you out evenings but this is only a temporary ar rangement. He will be getting his discharge shortly and at that time you two can work out a satisfact ory solution to your problems. He will feel differently about your go ing out ditcing when he is in a po sition to take you out himself. In’ the meantime, continue on as you are and do nothing thstt tyifi. may have reasons to regret later'oh. WATKINS Territory Available. Earnings, $30 to $35 a Week. See Lee H.
