FRENCH SENATOR
WOULD CUT OBEY
FROM MARRIAGES
WOULD MAKE HUSBAND CONSTR
TUTIONAL RATHER THAN AN
ABSOLUTE MONARCH

Paris, July 21.-A project presented
to the French Senate by Louis Martin,
senator from the Var, provides for rad
ical changes in the marriage laws OF
France and especially for the elimina-
ton of the pledge of obedience by a
does not, however, intend to eliminate
wife to her husband eSnator Martin
the provision tina ia husband must
support his wife. His theory is that
a revision of the laws governing mar
riage would be at least moral salts
faction, as these laws would still con-
tain a provision for mutual fidelity
and assistance.
''The only difference would be that
husband would become a constitu-
tional, rather than an absolute, mon
The clerical element in the senate
opposes the project. The spokesman
of this elemtn, Canon Colon, from
Metz, suggested that il would have
no bearing on feminist problems, as,
if the laws were revised as proposed
they would not gain anything which
they do not now have. He declared
that woman's influence over her hus-
band was paramount, despite senate
made laws.
On the other hand, protagoniss of
the measure cover the whole gamut
martial philosophy from purely reli-
gious origin, wherein sacred texts call
for obedience by the wife, to that of
the Socialists, like Paul Boncour, de-
putty from the Seine, who is in favor
of arranging ali marriage laws to
meet varying economic conditions,
leaving the courts to decide in indivi-
dual cases whether matrimonial bonds
are abrogated by a wifes' disobedi-
ence.
In any event, the senate does not
know which way to turn, and ultra
feminists will have to wait until next
October before. French politicians will
tackle the perplexing problem.

OVER YOUR
BINDER RIGHT NOW
r. Nj. MILLIKEN GIVES GOOD ADJ
VICE TO PLANTERS-uRGEs
CARE BE TAKEN OF BINDERS

Mr.. Rice Farmer:
Have you looked over that binder
you left in that back field last fall
when you finished cutting rice?
If not you had better haul it up
to the barn, get it under the shade
of tree and see just what repairs
lit will need. Now you know it will
need new canvases all around but
there are some pieces broken last
fall that you tied up with wire till
you finished that crop, and now is a
good time to jack it up and clean
out al the oil holes so the parts will
be fabricated for don't you remem-
Der how hard it was pulling the last
two weeks, just because you were
too busy to clean out the oil cups so
as to the oil hit all parts.
Now seriously get at that binder
and go over it carefully and get
the repairs and have it in running
order before you are ready to go
into the field. You intend to get
a new machine this year and not
fool with the old one? Are you?
have my doubts for two reasons:
the banks advancing you are going
to ask you If you really need new
one and they are going to insist you
fix up the old one if it is fixable
and we may not be able to get all
the new binders we need or think
we need.
If we will just take care of the
binders from the time they are new
we can easily prolong the life of
them three years, and lots of bind
ers are condemned to the scrap pile
when they have at least one or two
years more work in them with just
some repairs. Some one will have
to use some old machines and it may
be you so get it ready now. If the
repairs cost $4,000 and you can get
it to do the work you will be saving
$225O0 and will also save the bank
er from having the pleasure of turn
ing you down.
There is a lot more / could tell
you about this binder business, but
at least hope have set you think

Washington, July 17.-The defeat

The overthrow of Grenna in North
Dakota is like that of Representative

seem ominous for the Republican par

Idaho the league will draw support
from radical elements that have affil-
lated with the Republican organiza-
lions in the past.

can be made up, would deprive the
Senate Republicans of their majority

loss of their majorities in congress

The Republicans also express strong

1t was stated that the committee
knew there has been criticism by some
members for the introduction into dis
cussons of what they termed "contro-
versial matters likely to excite differ
eDces Of opinion. The report makes 1t
clear that the members OF the commit
tee believe that the sentiment of the
majority Of the members should de-
termne whether the political or the So
cial side of the historic organization
should survive
Every member of the club has received
a copy of the report and it is understood
that the matter will be taken up for
discussion at the Janary meeting. The
committee let 1t be known that ii ia
vored the retention of the old character
of the club, founded in February. 1868.
The principles upon which the club was
founded included absolute loyalty to
the Government of the United States,
TO the Government and resistance to the
uttermost of every attempt against the
territorial integrity of the nation"

course of the clubs discussions before
