CABLE MONOPOLY
 PREVENTION UP
U. s. Representatives to Com munications Conference Be-
 gin Study of Question
By Associated Press

Washington, September 15.-Am eri- can commissioners to the international communications conference to be held in Washington next month held their first meeting today at the state de- partment. They began a study of the entire cable situation with view to preventing threatened monopoly of cables by other nations
 Under Secretary of State Davis pre- sided. Because of the commercial and diplomatic significance of the confer ence the ehairmanship of the commis- sion was recently transferred from Postmaster General Burleson to MT. Davis, but the Postmaster General viii remain as honorary chairman.
 Officials said today the cable mo- nopoly exereised by the British on the east coast of South America made it imperative that the American repre seftatives to the communications con- ference devise measures not only 70 reach an equitab ble solution of thai question, but also of similar adverse conditions confronting the United States elsewhere.
 It was to await the outcome of the communications conference that the state department recently held up ac- ton which would grant the Western Union Company permission to land a cable at Miami, Fla, connecting with the British cable from south America at the Barbados. State department of flcials desired to determine whether the proposed line would strengthen the British monopoly on the west coast of South America.
 In the preliminary study of the cable situation made by the United States 1t is estima ted that Great Britain exer- cises control over more than l50,OO0 mics of cables in the world, or moIe than the combined total of all other nations The United States has control over only slightly more than 5000 miles. Of greater significance, however, according to officials, than the cable milage pos sessed by other nations is that the United States obtains direct information free from censorship or the control exer- cised by other nations over cables pass ing through foreign territory, only from the east coast ot South America and to limited extent from the Far East.
 The greater proportion of cable dis patches reaching the United States. 1t IS estimated in the government survey, must pass through the control of Brit ish French or Japanese cable lines. Practically all cablegrams from Europe pass through Paris or London. To London flow the channels of information from north Europe into Paris lines from Germany. Poland the Baltic states and Africa. Much of the traffic from Paris also goes through London.
 It is to remedy this situation and to arrive, If possible, at arrangements whereby cable messages in times of peace may be as free from control and censorship as mail matter under the con ventions of international post union, uf- fiicals said today, that American repre-. sentatives to the conference are direct ing their efforts

suits will be- minimized as soon as
 these nasty and careless marriage con.
 tracts are eliminated.
 Abandonment, adultery and violence
 are the three reasons usually given for 1 diYorces, according to the grand jury
 It was found by the grand jury that i lawyers handle such cases and often ! get around the main purport of the | law. Usually testimony is prepared by l the attorneys and signed by some wit
 nesses which will show that the ad- verse party to the marriage contract is 1 a nonresident. Often the witnesses are not sworn as to the truthfulness of the matter contained in the state ments.
 Stenographers or other persons in the employ of an attorney or the person seeking q divorce should not be appointed as commissioners to take testimony in a divorce case, inAthe opin- ion of the grand jury. Too much free dom is allowed the means which at torneys use in behalf of their clients seeking divorce
 Operation of punching boards and other gaming devices were condemned by the inqusitorial body in a special report made yesterday afternoon to Judge Horace c. Wilkinson of the cir cult court
 It was recommended that punishment be awarded in cases coming into courts The large number of divorce. cases, in the opinion of the grand jury, was due to the many nasty marriages taking place before the war
 While no true bills were returned l following the investigation of viola 1 tions of the Sunday closing law, pend ing the action of the city commission | of Birming gham, the grand jury went | on record as favoring the strict en- l forcement of the Sunday closing law | They recommended that those in au thority see that the law is enforced.
 Solicitor Joseph R. Tate was com mended for his arrangement and selec- tion from the witnesses who appear in the Jefferson county court of mis demeanors where cases are tried only those who will be of value before the grand jury, thereby saving the county many thousands of dollars.
 Following the filing of it's report the grand jury adjourned until September 20 when it will reconvene and com. olete its work.
