DIVORCE IN IOWA.

Upon the motion of Judge Horace
h. Deemer, speaking for the law re-
form committee, the Iowa State Bar
association at its meeting in Des
MONIES, unanimously adopted a reso-
luton suggesting that the legislature
should pass an act which shall pro-
Flde Tor the appearance of an attor-
ney on the part of the state in every
divorce case where a decree is to or
may be taken by default This attor-
ney is to cross examine the witness
and to introduce testimony, in order
that the court may pass upon the de-
PENDANTS side of the case as we'll as
that of the party seeking the decree.
1t was further suggested that, as a
bar to perjury, the testimony i'm every
divorce case be taken by the stenog-
rapher and preserved as record.
In discussing the matter the Du-
buque Times-Journal makes the point
that the adoption Of Judge Deemer's
suggestion would do no harm, nor
would it be of great advantage in re-
ducing the number of divorces. The
II argues that when no contest is
made by the defendant an attorney
appointed to appear on the part of
the state will not interest himself
deeply unless clear that no divorce
should be granted. Summing up the
whole matter, the Dubuque paper con-
cludes: 1--WE have many divorces in
Iowa because the statute admits many
causes and because the courts have
so construed it as virtually to make
incompatibility a cause In doing so
they have merely followed public SEN
timent. When a woman wishes to
divorce her husband and he is willing
to let her have the decree by default
no good will be accomplished by cross
examination and the preservation of
the testimony" This view of the mat
ter seems to be wholly tenable
