OPPOSITION
TO WAR MARRIAGES UNHEEDED
Pleas to
Wait Usually Ignored
CHICAGO—In
her syndicated editorial yesterday, Dorothy Dix responded to a letter writer
who pleaded for young men and women to wait until the war’s end to be wed. Miss
Dix opines these youth do not want to hear about the pitfalls—not the least of
which, husbands and wives may meet as strangers after the war—nor do they want
to wait for the alter. Miss Dix also states men do not want to face that a
woman who has been working “…for good wages may never be willing to go back to
a kitchen with no pay envelope on Saturday night.” She concludes that the
“…wedding bells ring merrily along and
the divorce court gets ready for a rush business when the war is over.”
