Con" Chumos, the well known To-
peka candy king. today lost a phase
of his old divorce case when the SUI
preme court reversed the action Of the
Shawnee county district court in re-
fusing to revive a judgment awarding
divorce and alimony to his former
wife. The decision carries with it a
judgment against Chumos for $4,000
in favor Of his children.
When Mrs Chumos sought divorce
against her husband several years ago,
she was awarded custody Of one Of the
children and alimony in the amount
Of $4,000 to be paid to the wife and
children in monthly installments of
$75. Following the granting of the de-
cree, Mr.. Chumos took the child
and removed to Pennsylvania. While
in Pennsylvania, Mrs. Chumos died.
The courts Of that state appointed an
executor for the estate and a guardian
for the child. With consent of the
executor, the child was taken from the
country. An effort was made to re-
vive the old judgment in favor of the
child, but the application was denied
by the Shawnee county court. The
supreme court today said that upon
proper showing revivory should be
issued.
At the time the decree against Chu-
mos was granted, he was holding a
certificate from q bank in Greece for
Chumos. This certificate, however,
had been pledged to a local bank to
cover debts personally contracted by
