This was the first time that repre-

the police, the sheriff and the district
attorney-had met in a joint confer

Peavey has given several state

PROBE Of DIVORCES
WILL Be ENLARGED
Witnesses to Be Summoned
Who May Throw Light
on Alleged Evil.
REPORT. IS SUBMITTED
Preliminary Findings Show s12
Final DEGREES Granted in Alex.
andria Since May /, 1920.
FIom q Stan Correspondent

from STAFF Correspondent
ALEXANDRIA,, Va, February IL
Determined to secure all information
possible relative to the divorce evil
which is alleged to exist in Virginia.
especially in Alexandra, the COM
mittee of the local bar associat tion
which is making a special investiga-
ton OF the divorce conditions will
enlarge the scope of its inquiry. In
stead OF the first proposed mild form
OF probe. such as gathering statistics
showing the number of divorces
granted during a certain period, the
committee will summon witnesses
who may be able to throw some ad-
ditional light on the divorce situa-
tton to testify before it.
A more sweeping inquiry into the
divorce conditions was decided on by
the committee at a meeting this aft
ernoon in the corporation court. The
hearing at which the testimony of the
witnesses will be heard was set for
February % at 10 am The witness
es to be summoned to testify include
Newspaper men, attorneys and pro-
prietors Of rooming houses in Alex
andria.
Witnesses To BE Summoned.
Among those who will be requested
to give the committee any informa-
tion which they may have pertaining
to the divorce situation are Attorney
Frank Stewart, Harvey l. Cobb,
newspaper man, and Mrs. Mary Bag
gett, Robert Luckett and Stella Ben
sci, proprietors of rooming houses
here, who have testified that many
persons who have been granted
divorces in Alexandria were occu-
pants of their respective homes for
a year, the legal residence required
divorce can be granted.
Members Of the subcommittee of the
special investigating committee which
has been tabulating the divorces grant,
ed mere since May 1, 1920, when the
alleged divorce evil is supposed to have
had it's inception. submitted a prelim-
mary report showing that since that
time s12 final DEGREES Of divorce have
been granted, and there are about 800
suits now pending. These figures, 1t
was pointed out. may vary in the final
report Of the subcommittee, which will
be made at the next meeting Of the
committee, Saturday afternoon at $3.50
o'clock
Reports Made Individually.
The three members of the subcommit-
tee which has been tabulating the di-
vorces granted from the beginning OF
the alleged evil to the present time. sub
mitted their reports individually. The
final report will be consolidated and will
be in a form which will allow an an
alysis. In the present state the reports
are Of little value to the investigating
committee because Of their incomplete
ness. Members of the subcommittee

TO RUSH
BONUS TO SENATE
House Members Hold. No
Fear Of Temporary
Deadlock,

The soldiers bonus legislation is GO
Ing to be passed up to the Senate by
the House, possibly this week or sure
ly next week, according to present
sentiment in the House. Just now
there appears to be a deadlock be-
tween the conferees representing the
republican members of the House
ways and means committee and the
republican members of the Senate
finance committee. Senator Smoot is
understood to be blocking an agree
ment, leading fight against the pro-
posed tax on undistributed profits of
corporations.
Friends Of the soldiers bonus leg
islation in the House. with strong
support from the ways and means
committee, are not in mood to be
baked. They are now endeavoring to
have a party caucus called. During
this week it is very likely that the
democratic members of the ways and
means committee will be called in, and
there has been some talk Of a demo-
cratic caucus on the bonus bill also.
Bill Up to Congress.
Some members of Congress, who
claim, to know the mind of President
Harding, on the bonus question, say
that his present attitude is to leave
responsibility to Congress The mefn-
bership of the House seems quite
willing to assume its full share of
responsibility for putting through
this legislation.
The present plan of the House
leaders IS, If the Senate conferees
contiaue to balk, to rush the measure
.tsfrough the House. probably by in
voking a special rule, and put it up
to the Senate to bring its own mem
bers to terms on the various items
in the tax program to pay the ad-
.justed compensation.
It is generally predicted that the
bonus bill when brought up in the
House will go through with a rush.
There is also disposition to put it
through without wasting much time
on speeches.
Unable to reach an agreement on
the tax program framed by the House
ways and means subcommittee, men,
bers of that body and Of the Senate
finance committee. referred the matter
yesterday to a subcommittee of four.

A theory evolved years ago. and
still talked by those who remember
the legends Of the disappearing
waters Of Sun river. II that the
crystal pool that bubbles to the
earth's surface on the banks Of the
Missouri and called Giant Springs
has its source many miles north and
west Of Great Falls, in the waters
that have seeped from Sun river. It
has long been believed that there 10

flows to the earth's surface and form
Giant Springs. Others find It diff

Some have hazarded opinions that
the water may have some relation to
! q big spring at Lewistown; others
| have said that 1t is an artesan flow
and at times during the many discus
sions of the source of the spring the
water has been traced by opinion
from every direction and every angle
of q direction from where 1t meets

Last year the Montana Power COM
pauy, in cooperation with the Great

to strike the underground current
leading to the springs by drilling
seven wells above the springs but
efforts to locate It failed.

Assuming that the office of the

istration of motor vehicles is made.
is correct in it's estimate that there
are 10000 motor vehicles in the state
subject to the state license, appr0xl.
mately 5000 motor vehicles escaped

Assessment returns of the asses

total of 49,346 cars assessed In 81
counties of the state, with the assess
ment reports silent as to the number
of cars assessed in Lincoln, Teton
and Daniels counties. Those coun-
ties in 1921 reported total of 1,7O7
automobiles. Presenting that the
same number was taxed in those
counties in 1922 would give a grand
total Of 51,053 cars taxed this year.

Licenses have been obtained from
the secretary of state, as state regis
trar Of motor vehicles, for over 66.-
900 automobiles, some of which, OF
course, were purchased after March
/, the date upon which property in
the state becomes liable for 1922
taxation.
Although this total Of automobiles
assessed in the various counties -
nearly 10000 greater than in 1919,
the value placed upon them for tai
purposes has decreased.
In 1919 cars were assessed In the
aggregate number of 1853, and the
total assessment was $15,854,69l.
while the total in 1922, with the
three counties estimated on the 1921
reports, was 51.053, with total val
