EuGENIc MARRIAGE LAW VOID.
Contention of Leading Wisconsin Lawyer
on New State Act.

Milwaukee, Wis, Dec. 23-The Wis
consin eugenic marriage law which will
go into effect on Jan. !, and which has
created statewide discussion for sew
eral weeks, was pronounced useless by
Horace B. Walmsley, leading member
of the bar, in a statement made public
Sunday. Cali that is required in this
state is that two persons, who are not
married at the time, agree to accept
each other as mates" Mr.. Walmsley
said. mo service is necessary and the
physical examination required by the
late law cannot be enforced" The con-
tention of Mr.. Walmsley Is based on
decision of the state supreme court,
which says that any man or woman
not married at the time, may make
a legal and valid contract of marriage
without any license, medical examina-
ton, priest, clergyman or magistrate.
All that is required is that two persons
agree to take each other as man and
wife and begin to live together in that
relation"
