You Needn't Love Your Wife i'm France
No mention of love is made in the
existing marriage laws of France. The
laws hold only that married people
owe to each other fidelity, comfort and
aid. 1t is proposed that they shall be
by adding that husbands and
wives shall love each other. Should
the amended clause really become
law says a Parish dispatch. "a Wife
or husband may call in the gendarmes
at any tome to arrest the conjugal
partner whose affection is not up to
the legal limit"
