THE DAILY NEWS, Huntingdon and Mount Union, July 26, 1974 PAGE 1 Ann Landers our Problems Dear Ann Landers: I am a successful businesman in my mid 40s, married to a woman I have not loved for a long time. Our children know it. I have offered a generous settlement, beyond what the law requires, but my wife will not let me go. The last time I packed and left she attempted suicide and was hospitalized. Her stubborn insistence that she keep me locked into this loveless marriage is ruining my health.

Hate can make a person ill and I really despise her for hanging on this way. I've sent my wife to a psychiatrist. He says he can't reach her. The children are married and live nearby. They have invited me to come live with them because they see what their mother is doing to me.

Whenever I tell her I'm leaving she says, "If you go, I'll kill my self." Do you see any way out of this? I don't want the guilt of this woman's suicide on my head, yet I am going to leave her one day, regardless. Advise me, Dear You say nothing about having seen a psychiatrist yourself. Has it occurred to you that perhaps you are in some way contributing to this woman's imbalance? What have you done to make her so punitive? And why do the children open their homes to you and not to her? Have you unwittingly turned them against their mother? By your own admission you are frustrated, angry and filled with hate. Please seek professional help and learn what goes on with YOU. Then perhaps you will find your wife more reasonable and easier to deal with.

Dear Ann Landers: I travel frequently by bus. Smoke makes me deathly ill. I've been caught so often between people who smoke in the rear that last week, I decided to play it safe and sit directly behind the driver when I boarded the bus at Hancock, Michigan Ignace. I observed several NO SMOKING signs and selected the seat directly behind the driver because I was sure no one would have the nerve to smoke near him. No sooner did we leave Hancock, when the driver lit a cigaret! I couldn't believe my eyes.

He coughed and hacked all the way to Marquette. At that stop, a fellow got on, sat himself next to me and started to smoke immediately. I knew I would lose my breakfast if I didn't get some clean air soon. I swallowed hard, tapped my seatmate on the shoulder and said, "Forgive me if I sud- AUTHORIZED OEAICR A CHRYSLER IMr MOTORS CORPORATION it costs us more to keep 'em than to sell'c Plymouth Satellite Sebring 2-Door Hardtop PAA Cmon in now Wefre niOVinf CHRYSLER 'em out? Plymouth Valiant, Duster, Scamp In Stock For Immediate PRICE MOTOR SALES denly puke all over you, because your cigaret smoke is making me sick." He gave me a peculiar look and leaped into the seat across the aisle. I pushed my nose against the window like a bloodhound, looking for a tiny patch of fresh air.

The passenger and driver both coughed and hacked all the way to Escanaba, where 1 got off and changed buses. But I will never forget that driver's name. It made a most appropriate monogram: B.S. Why don't the bus companies post signs that do some good? NO SMOKING means nothing. The signs should read: SMOKERS TO THE REAR OF THE BUS.

Nauseated in Michigan Dear 1 Hope every bus company executive who sees your letter will act on your suggestion at once. If, within two weeks after this appears in print, the signs are not up, I urge all readers who ride buses to write to the PRESIDENTS of the bus companies and raise Cain. Even if drinking is the "in" thing in your crowd, it needn't crowd you out. Learn the facts from Ann Landers' booklet, "Booze and You Teen-Agers Only." Send 35 cents in coin and a long, self-addressed, stamped envelope to Ann Landers, P.O. Box 3346, Chicago, 111.
