WISCONSIN LAW
RetardS Marriages, Preachers
Ask For Raise of Salary.

La Crosse. Wis, Oct. 1.-Strin-
gent laws passed at the last session
of the Legislature have reduced
marriages at La Crosse and other
Wisconsin border cities to a minimum
and ministers are seeking larger
salaries because of the serious cut in
their revenues.
The castor of one of the largest
Lutheran churches in town, who
ordinarily has many weddings, said
today that he had not performed a
marriage ceremony in three months,
and other ministers make the same
complaint.
Last m o n tn twenty-three La
Crosse couples crossed the river to
Winona to be married, and others
are going to other Minnesota points.
The new laws forbid all marriages
within five days of the taking out Of
the license except for two very
Sc ious causes, and after January
will also require that all men mar.
ried in Wisconsin submit to physi-
cal examination.
| This law has materially decreased
matrimonial progress all over the
State. especially in border town;
like La Crosse, where access to an.
Other State with less stringent laws
is 80 easy.
Kenosha ard Milwaukee are par.
ticular.y hard hit, being So near the
l1ois line.

a music trust" according to Edward
Lauterbach. attorney for Oscar Ham
merstein. Mr.. Lauterbach said his
client would fight to the last ditch"
for the right to produce opera in Eng

Surely there can be no doubt that
Otto H. Kahn's Metropolitan Opera
Company is a monopoly. Until Ham
merstein entered the Geld we had moth
ing but WORKOUT productions year
after year" the lawyer continued 1T
was cheaper TO run things that way.
Kahn and his associates, realizing
the grip Hammerstein was gaining on
the real music-loving population of the
city, got him to sign away his rights N
the four biggest cities in the country
BY the terms Of the contract, Hammer
stein can not produce opera in any
language in New York. Philadelphia,
Chicago or Boston.
I'VE intend to proceed against such
outrageous arrangement under the
