Before you publish this Robinson
article we demand that you send an
accredited representative to Reno and
learn the facts. and we also demand
that in your next issue you retract
your statement that Reno is "a city
whose main reaso for existence and
whose chief source of income are its
easy divorce laws
we believe that Reno and the state
of Nevada will have your hearty co
operation in this matter.
Most respectfully.
Reno Chamber OF Commerce.
The following reply was received
from the editor of the magazine:
Mr.. c. S. Knight, Chamber of Com
merce, Reno. Nevada.
Dear Sir:--has published
many articles by Helen Ring Robin
son and has never yet had anything
written by her disputed. AS an ex-
senator of Colorado legislature. and
an experienced suffrage worker, club
woman and publicist we have always
found Mrs. Robinson a sincere think
er and a constructive investigator. 1t
is too late now to take any action on
her article before publication as
for October is already printed
and will be on sale September Is.
Please accept my assurance that
there is no intention on our part to
publish anything that may do the
slightest injustice to your progress
sive city, and | feel sure that when
you read Mrs. Robinson's article you
will not find any departure from the
facts"
The telegram was signed by the
editor of the magazine. Couched in
graceful language it nevertheless is
a fat refusal TO hold up the story and
the next move is up to the chamber
of commerce.
President Knight has stated that
other efforts will be made to prevent
publication of all articles misrepre-
senting the conditions in Reno, es-
pecially with regard to the divorce
question.
1T doesn't seem fair that Nevada
should be stamped as disreputable be-
cause of statutes that have been in
existence here for fifty and more
years" he said. "The divorce ques-
ton is always greatly exaggerated
when discussed in other parts of the
world and it is time Reno should set
forth the true condition of affairs.
ITO state, as the advertisement
does, that divorces are Reno's princi-
pal source of revenue, is a base false
hood and should be confuted," he
added.

RENO OBJECTS TO
STORY ON THE CURE

Helen Ring Robinson, magazine
writer, spent two whole days in Rene
a few weeks ago. During her visii
there she Investigated the divorce
question and her exhaustive re-
search was the basis for an article &c
be published in an Eastern magazine
next month. says the Gazette.
The magazine advertises the article
as follows:
Taking the Cure in Reno.
Imagine a city whose main rea-
son for existence and whose chief
source of income are its easy di-
vorce laws. That's what keeps
Reno in the limelight today. The
fact that different states all have
different divorce laws, all varying
in severity. has driven those weary
of married life to Reno. And Reno
gives them what they want in the
quickest possible time. Read
Helen Ring Robinson's graphic
pen portrait of what Reno is and
what Reno does, in this magazine
for October"
The advertisement reached the
Reno Chamber of Commerce a few
days g and aroused a storm of
wrath. Talk of legal proceedings to
stop the publication of the article
started and it was declared the adj
vertisement at least was a libel on
that city and if the article followed
the trend outlined, it should be sup
pressed by court action if necessary.
Following discussion of the propo-
sition by directors of the chamber
President Knight sen the following
telegram to the editor of the maya
zine:

Club join with the chamber of COM
merce in a protest against the publ
cation in the October number. of a
proposed article on Reno as a di-
vorce center by Helen Ring Robinson.
We resent the aspersions on our CITY
in the announcement in your current
issue of this forthcoming article.
Reno is the commercial metropolis
of Nevada. 1t has nearly 5000 homes,
not owned by Divorces; ii has a
school system and school ediices that
are models in the entire West; ii has
81 1000, 900 in public school buildings.
nearly 1000 children enrolled. less
than one-half of one per cent of
whom are children of Divorces; il
has the state university, whose educa-
tional facilities attract students from
Stanford and Berkeley, and many
states; it has five banks with deposits
of $4,000. 900.
Based on the number of divorces
granted by the courts the percentage
of Divorce population in Reno is 3.5
per cent. Half of this divorce popu-
lation is dependent upon the employ
ment offered in Reno's thirty-fiye
manufacturing industries.
"The six months residence for
citizenship in the state of Nevada is a
constitutional provision drafted when
Nevada assumed the burden of state
hood to help Abraham Lincoln and
was designed for the purpose of en-
couraging citizenship. Other states
have the same period of residence for
citizenship for the same reason.
"Nevada's divorce statute is similar
to that of thirty other states and very
close to the proposed uniform federal
statute. We are not responsible for
the antiquated divorce laws of New
