What is known as the Southwick
Marriage Bill" introduced on March
~ I'm the Minnesota legislature by
c. s. southwick OF Wells is attracting
the attention OF many people in this
state because OF the fact that Il con-
tains several radical changes in the
marriage law. The bin was referred
TO The committee on judiciary which
reported II bacl; on March rs and II
il presumed that il win come before
the house very soon.
The bill Is complete revision OF
the laws concerning marriage in this
state. One of it's provisions provid-
es that any couple desiring license
will have To wait FIVE days for the is
siiance during which time their
names viii be posted in the clerks

cases can a deviation be made TO this
rule. and then only after an order
has been issued by the judge of the

planned and written under oath.
Another ruling is that both mem.
bers of the couple will have to per
sonally appear before the clerk to get
a license and they must also be iden.
titled by proper witnesses. The bill
should require the publication In the
newspapers OF marriage licenses. The
law anent the issuance of licenses Is
merely formaliiy and does not pre-
tend to carry ont the purpose for
which Il was intended. There are
some excellent features contained in
the Southwick bill. One of these Is de-
signed to prevent hasty marriages or
eiopements.
