Dear Ann Landers,
read that letter about the husband who was dressed up in his good suit and asked his wife to change the tire because she was in jeans. Your answer was terrible. If that had been my wife, I would have given her a swift kick in the Levis and left her with the car and the flat tire to figure things out for herself. It makes me mad the way women today want to drive buses, trucks, and taxis, fly air-planes, be lawyers and doctors, and run for public office, but they don't want to do any of the hard work connected with the job. I say nobody should get behind the wheel of a car if he isn't willing to change a tire. I work in a post office that has hired several women in the past few years. These women get the same pay as men, but they don't go near the eighty-pound sacks because a law says they don't have to pick up anything heavier than forty pounds. Is this fair?-Feduplentywithem

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, and I want a family. The problem is my husband. Before you jump to con-clusions, let me assure you he’s a perfect specimen of manhood. He feels it would be an injustice to bring children into this crazy world. He reads everything available on nuclear warfare. I’m practically an authority on radioactivity myself. Some of the articles make me won-der if I’ll get out of bed in the morning. I admit he has a point, but I hate to think of going through life with-out a family. Is it wrong to bring children into a world equipped with weapons of total destruction? What are your views? -Woman on the Beach
