Two Problems to Be Faced.

In forty years divorces in the United
States have, increased 24O per cent.
Granting, for the sake of argument.
all the reasonable pleas offered for
breaking the ties of unhappy mar
riages, the fact remains that easy d.
vorce means loose morals and more di-
vorces. In many a case, if the laws
had been harder, the parties would
have readjusted their views and work
ed out successful married life The
disaster is that thousands of young
people are rushing into matrimony
with the shallow idea that if it does
not suit they can apply to the courts
and that there will be no dishonor 1t
is the old story of an evil becoming so
common that it loses it's degradation.
Here surely is a call to the conscience
of the nation. A uniform law is the
ideal, but that seemingly being impos-
sible in our present stage of civiliza-
ton the citizens of the states should
be moving upon their legislatures and
their courts to save the United States
from the ignominy which it now holds
of being the second country of the
world in divorce statistics, Japan be-
! ing first.
Official figures for the past year
| show a very large increase in the con-
sumption Of alcohol. In spite Of laws
and movements there is more drinking.
and the results are found in the in
creases in the jails, asylums and hos
pitfalls. Here is another problem for
the home. 1t must be faced and
fought. and. while a part of the rene
dy is in the law, the larger part is in
the training of the new generation.

Minister of Finance to-day presented .
letter to the ix-power group Of bank
ers deploring circumstances which pre-

The minister points out that the gov
eminent is urgently in need Of funds.
and that failure to obtain them VIII
place the country in a dangerous po-
sition, and adds:
According to the proposed agree-
ment, the six-power loan was secured
by the salt revenue. Should any por-
ton OF this hereafter be hypothecated
as security and a loan contracted with
another party IL would be necessary
proportionately to reduce the $780,

agreement. in the event OF future
agreement with this group.
1T was not my original intention TO
make such o condition. but there has
been so much delay on your part ana
so many side issues have been pushed
forward, that I am constrained to do
so, however reluctant I feel to take
such a course"
