UNITED CHARITIES BUTTS IN
JUDGE SoUELcHEs 1T

JULIE SSROELS1E0 ~
Judge Joseph D.. Uhlir of the Court
of Domestic Relations yesterday de-
Ivered bitter denunciation of Cos
sipers, and also refused to be govern
ed by the demands of the United
Charities who wanted to railroad
Joseph Kenny to the Brfdewel.
Joseph and his wife, Laura, are
only q. They are father and mother
of two children, the oldest three
years, and Joseph was first brought
into court five days ago for not con-
tributing to the support of these chill
dren.
Joseph felt that he was quite justi-
fed in his action because he had been
told by some woman that Laura was
'fooling around with some moving
picture man." and he wouldn't take.
care of her while she did that.
Judge Uhlir listened and watched
the two, still little more than chill
dren themselves, while the woman
who had told Joseph the story re-
peated it in court.
Laura Indignantly denied it and the
Judge decided he would have the mat
ter investigated by one of the social
service women, and he continued the
case for five days.
Yesterday the actors in the little
near-tragedy were in court. The So
cial service representative said she.
had investigated and found nothing
wrong with the wife.
Judge ,Uhlir looked at the boy
husband. "You see, you have been
believing in gossip and it isn't true,
There should be some way to punish
gossipers. Now want you to go

Joseph turned, but here the United

tive, Miss Brent Of the North division,
stepped into the case.

their testimony that there was no
