SAYS DIVORCE LAWS ARE LAX.
Chicago Judge Also Takes Lawyers 10
Task for shlrp Practices.

CHICAGO. Jure 2.-Declaring that the
divorce laws of Illinois are second only
TO those of South Dakota in their laxity
and that every opportunity is given to
la wyers to make Use of fraud and sharp
practice in laying their divorce cases be-
fore the courts, Judge McEwen to-day
suspended Attorney James H. Burr from
practice in his court for sixty days.
The proceedings grew out OF a suit by
which Arthur L. Robertson obtained a
divorce from Luella Robertson, in Judge
Gary's court. several days after Judge
McEwen had declined to enter a decree
without further testimony. In his decision
Judge McEwen also scored h he termed
as sharp practice" by many lawyers
practising in Chicago. He declared there
GEMS to be more regard for results than
ethics among some lawyers.
In the matter of divorces Illinois is sec
ond only to South Dakota asserted the
Judge. THE system is lax, making II
easy for a person to obtain a divorce. and

a Judge TO detect frauds.
The courts as a result are continually
imposed Upon, as the impression seems to
prevail that anything regarding a divorce
is right and legal in this State, and more
especially in Chicago.
THE dignity Of the court must be upheld,
Notwithstanding the fact that there are
many lawyers who engage in sharp prac-
tice. 1t would seem that among some
lawyers results are regarded more highly
that ethics
