SUBJECT FOR DISCUSSION.
Cen Husband Beat His Wife 10 De
/ Discussed.

Richmond, Jan. John Garland
Pollard, recently elected first mayor
of Ginter Park, by an assembly, III
which women were allowed rights
equal with men, made the principal
address Thursday night before the
Equal Suffrage League at its head
quarters, 500 East Broad street.
His subject was care the Laws u
Virginia Just To Women lmmedi-
ataly after the close of the talk, Mr..
Pollard answered a number of ques-
tons relating 20 the topic, among
which was one regarding the right OF
a husband to beat his wife.
The speaker pointed out a number
Of instance. in which the State laws
are unjust to women. He said that
the husband should not receive all of
the real estate and personal property
of his wife after her death, while in
case of his death she is entitled only
to one third of each.
He pointed out the further MUS
tice Of such discrimination in the fact
that the wife often assists materially
in the acquisition Of her husbands es-
hate, while he rarely helps in hers
since it usually comes to her by inner
itance.
He also enumerated among the in
justices of the laws, that which pro-
viGes for the disposal of the property
of son or daughter who may die
without issue. In such an event, the
entire estate reverts to the father.
if he is living, and must be divided
between the mother and brothers and
sisters if he is dead.
That mother should be deprived
of the custody Of her children in case
she should remarry after her hus-
bands death, as is now possible,
should the husband so order in his
will. constitutes a second discrimna-
ton against mothers to be found in
Virginia laws.
