REDUCTION IN
MARRIAGE LICENSE
FEES is URGED

London. Sept. 1.-THE archbishop of
Canterbury has sent letter to all the
bishops urging them to reduce the mar
riage license fees that soldiers and
sailors summoned to active service may
marry before leaving home. The mar
rage fees aggregate so, which includes
$3.50 in stamped duty to the government.
The archbishop has requested the gov
eminent to waive the payment of this
duty in the case of recruits and expects
that his request will be granted,
Many dioceses already have lowered the
license fee to $3.50 and the clergymen
are waving their right to personal fees
The wholesale encouragement of mar
rages on the part Of the soldiers and
sailors of Germany, Austria and France
has attracted much attention in England
and probably inspired the archbishop
action.
