When His Wife Brought Non
Support Action.

William A. Crossan and his wife, Mary,
farmers, who recently aired their marital
troubles in Superior Court Court, today
shifted the scene to the City Court. The
upper court refused the husband s petition
for a divorce. Crossan alleged that his
wife had deserted him without cause,
but the court took the opposite view and
dismissed the petition.
Then the wife had her spouse arrested
for non-support. Today for the first time
the husband brought the war with Ger
many into the case. He testified with
dramatic effect TO the German parentage Of
his wife when asked why his wife had
left him. Judge Daniel O. Hastings was
interrogating the defendant after the
lawyers has finished with him.
The wife objected to Sam Crossan, a

After briefly referring to peace con-
ference his majesty said he intended soon
to ratify peace with Bulgaria and Austria.
The negotiations for peace with Turkey,
he added, were being pressed forward
with all possible speed. Referring TO
the recent conferences IN Paris and
London he said:
Il earnestly trust that as the result
of these meetings a settlement of the
long-continued Adriatic dispute VIII short
" be reached. In order, however, to
assure the full blessings Of peace and
prosperity to Europe II is essential that
not only peace but normal conditions Of
hfe should be restored in eastern Europe
and in Russia. So long as these vast
regions withhold their full contribution
TO the stock of commodities for general
consumption the cost Of living can hardly
be reduced or general propserity be re-
stored TO the world.
The condition of Ireland causes me
grave concern, but q bill viii be immedi-
ately laid before YOU TO give effect to
proposals for a better government of that
country, which was outlined at the end
Of the last session of Parliament; a bill
TO make further provision for education
IN ireland viii also be submitted.
Despite increased agricultural pro-
duction during the war, the populations
of these islands are still dangerously de-
pendent upon supplies of food from over
seas. and the financial burden of pur-
chasing such supplies in foreign markets
against the adverse rate of exchange is
very great.
@Uneasiness is also being caused by
the unprecedented sale of landed prop
erty since the war A measure viii,
accordingly be proposed to mitigate any
hardship which this operation may cause
those who occupy the soil, and to stimu-
late and develop production of essential
foodstuffs within the United Kingdom.
