court docket shows that there are
eighteen divorce cases set for trial

set for trial. Il am powerless to
remedy the evil, however, under the
present divorce law of the state.
About half of these cases to be
heard should not be tried" continued
Judge Fox. Il have drawn up two
divorce law bills which would. in my
opinion, remedy the divorce evil to
great extent and these bills have been
presented to the legislature, but each
was killed.
