Raymond Belmont Must
Pay Wife $lO0 AlimOny

NEW YORK, May 6.--In a decision
awarding a decree of separation and
800 a month alimony to Mrs. Ethel
Lorraine Belmont in her suit against
Raymond Belmont, son of the banker.
Justice Greenbaum. in the Supreme
Court yesterday, commented sharply
on young Belmont's way of life, and
said that he couldn't escape with a
small payment of alimony because of
his refusal to work when able to do
so.
Justice Greenbaum. who has had
the Belmont case under considera-
ton for several months, not only
criticised Belmont for the reckless
way in which he spent large part
of his inheritance. but upbraided Mrs.
Belmont for aiding her husband in
squandering his money. He gave her
to understand that the amount of
alimony she could recover was IN no
way affected by the wealth of August
Belmont or by his generosity toward
his son.
