MARRIAGES THAT ARE NOT Judge Sabbath, of Chicago, has been asked to annul a marriage on the sole plea that the ceremony was performed by a ship captain. Attorney Beal, admiralty counsel for the United States Shipping Board asserts that ho state ever designated a ship master as one who could perform a marriage ceremony, and cited one case where such a marriage had been annuled. Judge Sabbath refused the petition for divorce because it would set a precedent that would apply to thousands of marriages performed on the high seas in good faith. While not dismissing the case Judge Sabbath asks for more law and more time for considering he points, one of which is that if the marriage was not a marriage can the court annul something that did not exist. It seems to be a question that might better be let alpfie. SPEED AND MORE SPEED A private* corporation proposes to construct six transatlantic liners capable of crossing the ocean every'four days. The corporation has 50 millions of available capital, and asks the shipping board to provide a federal loan of 94 millions. At the same time representa fives of a Berlin airplane works are negotiating with a group of American business men for the financing of a recently perfected flying boat that will carry IGS passengers and 13,000 pounds oi freight across the Atlantic in 24 hours. This new airboat carries 10 motors, four designated to lift the machine and stabilize it, while the other four motors drive it. In all probability the government will hesitate to loan funds for any transpbrtation plan that promises to become “slow freight” within a few years.

GAME WARDEN’S SALARY' Some persons still hold the opinion game wardens are paid by fees and that a warden’s salary depends solely upon the number of arrests he makes, despite this law has been off the statute books for years. - Strange to say, some are unaware that the fish and game division receives no legislative appropriation, still holding to the opinion it is operated like many other state offices, when in fact its existence depends upon its earning capacity through sale of fishing and hunting licenses. Recently a correspondent sent in this enlightened statement: “I didn’t believe in officers of the law having to depend upon violations of the law for their mode of income. This leads officers to have a desire that crime be committed because of the rake-off they get. While every one ought to co-operate with a game warden and consider him their friend,much prejudice exists against them for this reason. I would like to see the game wardens placed upon a good living salary, then step out boldly and prevent violations of the law, ancl not tg sneak around waiting for the tew to be violated so they may live." Persons familiar with operation of the fish and game division know this correspondent is wholly wrong in his contentions. Game wardens are not allowed to collect constable fees pr handle any money othpr than a lawful witness fep if a case is tried in court and the defendent is fined, Ninety per cent of all persons arrested by warded plead guilty and the case contested, so there are but few witness fees ever collected by a warden. Money paid in/ fines

goes to the public school fund. Regular game wardens of this department, according to George N. Mannfeld, superintendent, are paid from SIOO to $l4O a month, according to length of service. Their expenses are paid when away from home on duty. • o Before a license is granted in Germany the applicant must show that he or she not only can drive a car, but also is reasonably familiar with its mechanism and can make certain repairs as well as know in the technical term for every part of his car. A rule of that kind in the United States would reduce the number of drivers by about nine-tenths. It would no doubt reduce the number of deaths and injuries in greater proportion.

THE CHINESE ELM As a shade, windbreak, and avenue tree the Chinese elm has proved to be the most successful introduction of this kind yet made by the United States Department of Agriculture. This tree is resistant to drought, alkali, and variable temperatures, • making it especially valuable to the Great Plain region where desirable shade trees are few. It has proved winter hardy in most trials in the Dakotas, Minnesota, New York, Montana, and other Northern States? Some of the earlier plantings in this country are now producing seeds, so that a domestic supply should soon be available and make importation from China unnecessary.
