The discussion OF possible remedies
for the divorce evil by speakers before
the National Congress OF Mothers in
Chicago calls public attention to the
increase in number of divorces granted
In many States during the last two
| or three decades. The statistics tell Il
story Of martial disruption that seems
almost Incredible. AS an instance of
the growth of divorces one of the
speakers cited the example of Ohio,
where one divorce in every twenty-five
marriages was the ratio In 1870 ana
one divorce In eight marriages the
ratio in 1902. Other States might have
been cited. however. as illustrative OF
the tendency to seek relief from mar
ltal responsibilities and Incompatible
| ties in the courts In 1867 Indiana had
1896 divorces, the largest number for
that year in any State. In 1900 the
number had increased to AGO, or one
to every 81 marriages of the year.
Michigan divorces increased from 40
in 1867 to 1880 In 1886 and 2,4lS In
1900. The ratio In that State Is now
one divorce to eleven marriages. iii.
