Divorce Is Weapon Man ( ses Against Woma'n, Says Noted Brazilian Authoress Hlo de Janeiro.—(United Preus.)— forrelo Dll Mauha. a Rto De Janerto morning newspaper, has set out to discover the Braalllan attitude toward divorce question, and is publish mg a series of interviews obtained from pe°P le 111 all walka of llf "’ Beek ' 10 g the opinions of the most repreicntatlve figures in Brazilian science, #rt letters, industry, commerce, finance, government, religion and the, working classes. According to Sc nor Graca Aranha. futurist, diplomat, minister plenipotenciary and romanticist, the question u s divorce does not exst for the true modern spirit. "The marriage conract, like all oilier associations. Is based on the dee|re of <he associated parties,” the futurist declared.” Marriage i H in accord with two wills.

"Laws are not necessary to fortify the attraction of sex, for it will exist by its owm nature. However, love should bring a sentiment incomparably more efficient and more true ihan friendship; if a marriage of love transforms itself into a union of friends and is cemented by the formation of a family, its Indissolvibility is assured; but if this transformation does not occur, all the laws in the
