LOVDOr". IVfc. IF The decree of a MlMan, Italy court Tin ulllnsr a marriage on the ground th.it it waj childless has iiioiwl a choru of (Mnr'ii jion here, nril in illpjptroval. "It is a Rro-ws Imperti-MK'e in Italy whr vornn not represented In the legislature." drclared Flor-

cp Underwood, .secretary of the

Woman'H I'YeeJojn I-arne. "Tiio advocates of compulsory annulment for this meon -will Ural n ad-

htre.nt ftmons th" Brltl'i women.

"I ronsiler," naM Mr Hudson J73ll. of the J,ondon County Council nd the Marria-To LK?fense Council "that tho proposal to niakc chlldJ"Enc53 a compulsory or voluntary boüis for annuliC-nt of inarrUe is not only thoroughly lira hri-dian, hut a degradation of v;oin.inhood. To regard marriage as only a nuMri-. of raiding children is a low ring of tho rbol idal of th.' jrreatest Mid bi st of human parnership." Clmreh Will Not Ti.Ioi-mU' Ii. 'The. Itoman Catholic church will nover tolerate Mich a decree." t-aid Vorco I'gerton (Mis. r;oldim: Bright) tho writer. "Maniac,5' must ro regarded as a sicn n: nt or a mere civil contract. Th" Catholic church regards ita.J a furramcnt and r.ever wilt annul it on the ground t-f barrenness." "I say emphatically that ehildlrssis not a jrittable j 1 a to put In re foreground of an application for divorce." fays Havelock Fllis. tho rnlnent psycholosist and eueenist. "Many of tho happiest riarrtas are childless. Fur from encouiKing" th birth of more, children, I think tho birthrate f far too hitrh In Huropo. If it had "been lower in Germany we probably should not have had the reit war; and, arain, there would

t b t-o many people starving.

"It i3 Importable to make a genera, rule an to the limitation of families. Th iaxgrer tho number of children hftalthy parcntj have, tho better the welfare of tho community. The problem la how to discourage tho untiound from bringing children into th world. If H wcro generally recognized that It is a disgraceful thing for people who are not fit In health to havo children, it would act as a great social force." Takes Different View. Mrs. M- I. Featon-Tledman. secretary of tho Divorco I jaw Reform union, takes a, different view, saying: "Them are thousands of people who would welcome a law making childle.-enem a basis for divorce. Where chtldleno? lead1 to excessive. lmhapplnr.Htt nid separation, and which Is continued, say. for three years, nn opportunity might well be given tho parties to seek divorce. Wo havo letters showing there are

ny childless homes where chil-

.ren are desired.

' The high cost of living appears to le increasing" tho proportion of child'ess mirriae. In several cases that have been 'brought to our attention thero t a. difference of opinion between ,'ho husband and wife on the question of whether children can be afforded. For these tho law should rivo pome avenue of escape."

'"t'HE First New Model Cadillac in two and a half j'ears has made its appearance in South Bend, and is now on display in the Steinhart show rooms,

213-217 S. Lafayette Blvd. THIS New Car Type "59" is a direct descendant of the veteran war car and sole heir to the wealth of tradition and character accumulated by its long line of eminent ancestors. GOOD breeding precludes boastful claims. Changes in the Type "59" Cadillac over the previous model are noticeable but not radical. Improvements and refinements are what one familiar with the Cadillac would expect designed to preserve the value of cars that have gone before, as well as to serve ultra-well those who are to become Cadillac owners for the first time. THE only disappointment that can possibly come to any purchaser of a Type "59" Cadillac will be through neglect to place an order as far as possible in advance of the date delivery is desired. EARLY inspection and selection of body style is earnestly suggested.
