Cleely Hamilton writes in tha Daily News-Senor Blasco Ibañez, the Spanish novelist, informed the Philadelphia University Club that American women were disgusted with the "bowing and scraping .. the exaggerated respect” of man; and that they had told him they would like to be "dominated" for a change. He advised then to treat them a little roughly once in a while!"

THE MAN WHO SLAPS HIS WIFE
Senor batez is a Spaniard -e) neutral in the war; but his sup- gested remed bears out theory that he is one on whom the war has left its mark. "Treat them a little roughly" is his advice to the American man; I have my doubts as to whether hel would offer that advice in thei fire: months of 1914.
