WIFE MUST
 SUPPORT HUSBAND
By Associated Pres.

London, March PA Russian wife is re- auired to support her husband if she be able to do it and he is unable to work and in need of her support, under cae marriage laws of soviet Russia. A copy of this code, translated into English, has just reached London from the Russian peoples commissariat of justice
 It provides that married persons shall be expected to support each other. Should one refuse and the other be what is classed as a "needful," unfit to work, the latter has the right to apply to the de- partment of social security to compel the husband or wife, as the case may be- to pay support.
 Mutual consent of husband and wife, or merely the desire of one of them to be freed from the other, may be consid- cred as grounds for divorce. Local judges are authorized to hear divorce cases, but their decisions are subject to appeal.
 The matrimonial age is fixed at IS for men and 16 for girls. Both must be of sound mind and mutually desirous Of marriage. Differences of religion or VOWS of celiback are no impedient Married persons may choose to bear the surname of the bride or of the bridegroom or their joint names. Marriages contracted in accordance with religious forms are not binding unless the union is regis tered under the prescribed form of civil or sovietist marriages. Old forms of max riage law or, as 1t is termed, ''the legal ized forging together of men and wom- en-" are abolished.
 Under the laws of succession in the soviet code, none but the "needful'' and the state may inherit property. The es- tates of emigrants and of rebels are sub ject to confiscation by the state.

The movement came in for considerable
attention by reason Of the fact that it
occurred simultaneously with the

a perfunCtory performance. With the
stock 80 points above the allotment
price par CSl00. the melon utting
naturally was made to appear more en-
ticing.

that more than 81 per cent Of the share
holders had already expressed willing
ness to take up the allotment subscrip-

without any definite explanation. The

Chicago, July 0.-Changes in corn

houses had selling orders and the under
tone was weaker.
Immediately after the opening, buy

was bcarish. After moving irregularly
later, the market exhibited better
tone. There were reports Of an advance
of four to five cents in the cash article
in the Southwest and this. together
with a paucity of offerings, led to new

Selling, however, increased ON all
