LAW IS ASKED
ITALY PERMIT
ROME, Sept. 28 (by Associated
Press).—A law to permit divorce in
Italy proposed by the Socialist deputy,
Marangoni, has roused both protest
and approval in the clerical and Social
ist camps. The bill has now been ex
amined by a parliamentary commis
sion which has amended it.
Under the proposed law divorce
would be permitted in consequence of
separation for three years in the case
of those who have children, two years
in the case of those who have none.
Dissolution of marriage could be
asked by a husband who, having been
absent on military service, or for the
execution of civil or philanthropic dut
ies on the occassion of some national
calamity, could prove that during his
absence his wife committed adultery.
Reasons for separation of married per
sons legalized by the proposed law in
clude: Mental infirmity, declared to be
incurable rendering married life dan
gerous or intolerable; desertion on the
part of the husband or wife; inflic
tion of a penal sentence carrying the
interdiction of civil rights; and habi
tual crime or immorality injurious to
the honor of the family.
The proposed law also regulates the
legitimation of children born out of
matrimony; settles the question of ali
mony, the restitution of the dot and
the arrangements regarding property
held in common by man and wife; pro
vides for the education and maintain
ance of children and for the institution
called a “family council” to which
Italians now often have recourse in
matrimonial troubles.
However, the idea of the institution
of divorce is so strange to many Ital
ians, and is so strongly opposed by the
Roman Catholic church, that many
are of the opinion that it has but a
slight chance of becoming a law, al
though it is supported with some fer
vor by the Socialists.
MEXICANS MAY
BUY GUNBOATS
FROM THE U. S.
MEXICO CITY, Sept. 28 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Purchase of two gun
boats and six destroyers is being con
sidered by the Mexican government,
according to General Piutarco Elias
Calles, secretary of war and marines.
“I understand that destroyers can
be bought from the United States gov
ernment for $20,000 each,” General
Calles told a group of newspapermen
recently. “In view of the success
which these small craft have during
the war, I believe that it would be ad
visable for the Mexican government
to buy three for the Atlantic service
and three for the Pacific.”
General Calles and his staff are at
work on a plan for universal military
service, with which it is expected that
the determined figure of 50,000 sol
diers can be raised.
*’I believe that the best military age
is from 21 to 22 years,” .the war minis
ter said. “At this age men are least
selfish' and best able to get along with
each other regardless of the walks of
life from which they come.
8
“In the meanwhile, General Calles
added, the mustering out of troops is
progressing briskly and thousands of
soldiers are being returned to civil
life, where the government believes
that they can best serve their country
by tilling the farm and manning the
factories. The privates and the high
er officers are co-operating in the big
movement, it is said, the only opposi
tion coming from a few petty chiefs.

FAMOUS MAN
DIES PAU! R
IN ENGLAND
DRIFFEL, Eng., ept. 28 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Sir Luke White, who
was a member of Parliament for 18
years, has just died in the almshouse
infirmary here. Born in 1845 at Deigh
ton, near Yark, he started in life as
a messenger boy, became an attorney’s
managing clerk, a solicitor, a county
councillor, a coroner for the East Rid
ing and in 1900 Liberal member of
Parliamen for Buckrose. He was
knighted in 1908.
The war affected Sir Luke’s invest
ments and in October of last year he
filed a petition in bankruptcy, the
statement of claims showing a deficit
of more than $100,000. Later a Drif
field socicitor who had been Sir
Luke’s managing clerk, pas prosecut
ed on a charge of alleged fraudulent
conversion of $1,000 and it was alleged
that money had been converted to Sir
Luke’s use. A warrant was issued
against White but was suspended on
account of his illness and his advanced
years. The case against his former
managing clerk eventually was dis
missed.
About three years ago there were
rumors of impending trouble and bank
rupt proceedings were instituted by
clients who had entrusted funds to
Sir Luke. He was without means.
His health, bodily and mentally gave
way. There remained only the alms
house but friends paid the cost of his
maintenance there.

TOKIO, Sept. 28 (by Associated

the increase in Japan, the latest re
turns indicating the total number at
over 1,000,000.
tatistics formerly showed the mor
tality at the rate of one in every four
patients. The latest tendency, how
ever, is toward a gradual decrease in
the death rate. The spread of the
disease is attributed to the inadequacy
of preventive measures. The author
