LEGAL TO BEAT YOUR WIFE?

Washington, Oct. 81. - Whether a
for injuries received in domestic en-
counters is to be determined by the
supreme court of the United States.
The question viii be decided in
suit growing out of the laws of the
District OF Columbia but the outcome
win be of interest in Illinois and other
states where similar laws are in force.
In the case argued before the SUI
prome tribunal today Jessie T.. Thomp-
son is suing Charles n. Thompson,
principal of the jefferson school, for
damages for seven beatings she al
legos she suffered at the hands Of her
husband in 1908. She wants conpen-
sation at the rate of $4,000 per beat.
ing.
The suit was brought under the Dis
trict of Columbia law, which provides
that a wife may bring suits in her own
right. The district supreme court de.
cidcd that Mrs. Thompson could not
sue her husband for personal injuries
or for any other reason, and that the
district law merely intended to give a
wife the right to sue persons other
than her husband,
The court held that the common law
by virtue of which husband and wife
are one" prevailed over the district
law, This decision was upheld by the
court Of appeals.
Mrs. Thompson appealed to the
highest tribunal to grant her damages.
