DIVORCE LAWS FOR ALL NATION
 URGED BY JONES
Twentieth Amendment tc Constitution Proposed for
 Regulating Marriages
By HARRY HUNT

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-National uniform marriage and divorce laws embodied in goth constitutional amendment-will be sought through the new congress.
 Ministerial and reform organiza- tions are behind the movement to dig out of the Senate judiciary commit tee resolution buried there 19 months. It was introduced by Sena- tor Wesley L. Jones, of Washington.
 Some reasons advanced are:
 The United States grants more di- corces than all other nations com bined
 Divorces in America increased 160 per cent in 20 years, while population increased 40 per cent.
 Forty-seven states have 47 differ ent divorce cords and congress enacts another for the District of Columbia and territories.
 South Carolina alone does not allow divorce for aDy cause.
 New York and the District of Co lumbia grant divorce for one cause infidelity-while reasons for divorce elsewhere run as high as 14 in New HampshiZ.
 Different codes make some people bigamists and their children illegiti- mate in one state and legally married and with legitimate offsprings in an other
 This conflict" says Dr. Renwick H. Martin, of Pittsburg, leader of the National Reform bureau, tends to break down respect for those laws themselves and to their loose inter- pretation. This tends to lessen re- spect for marriage"
 Figures to be presented to con- gress show divorces today are in excess of one to every nine marriages. The rate is growing. Los Angeles is at top speed; six years ago the divorce rate there was one to every five marriages, now five to II.
 Statistics covering 30 years show total marriages in America decreased during two years (1s94 and 19O4) and divorces increased each. year Latest figures show in one year 1,040,77S marriages as against 112,036 divorces. Women obtain seven of every 10 di- vorces.
 Ten years previously the divorce total of the country was 72,062 and 20 years previously 42,937. The in crease in 10 years was 55 per cent and in 20 years 160 per cent.
 Seek National Standard
 The movement for a 20th amend ment aims toward a national stan- dard below which no state may go although any state may enforce more rigid standards.
 It has been suggested New York's law-permitting divorce for infidelity only-be made the national standard
 Supporting this plan are statistics showing there was 20 per cent de- crease in divorce last year in New York City over the previous year, as against a five per cent decrease in marriages.
 Figures also show the number of divorces per 100000 is only half as much in New York as in the United States as whole.

HAIR DRESSING

Tn France women are dressing the hair to make the head look as small as possible. The locks are pulled straight back and coiled at the neck with the greatest simplicity There is a tendency over there to keep the outline of the head small. but the hair is arranged softly about the face. This is much more flattering to the average woman.

GAY CH|LDERS
 DIED TO HELP
 ER|N'S CAUSE
Widow Says He Was Slain for Devotion to Liberty as
 Americans See Freedom

LONDON, Dec. 9-Erskine Childers British-born fighter for Irish ipde- pendence, went to his death at the hands of Irish Free State executioners breathing defiance and declaring that the Irish people some day would re pudiate the Anglo-Irish treaty and form an independent state of the type for which he died.
 This is brought out by last state ment from Childers issued in prison and printed today exclusively in the Review through NEA Service.
 Childers' last words were:
 "I am proud to die for a principle greater than any government or any country. It is true I am English in the strict sense of the word, but l deny that accident of birth can limit the human mind and I have been ready to fight for the liberty of man. kind against tyranny wherever found
  who were ready to condemn tyranny when exercised by the English in Ireland, but who take another view when it is a question of maintaining their own positions, positions won by betraying the cause for which so many of their countrymen died.
 "One day the people of Ireland will awake to the fact that they have been betrayed and that it was left to this damned Englishman,' as I have been called. to remain true to the principles for which the best and bravest sons of Erin have given their lives gladly.
 Friends of nterty the whole world over will realize that have not sacri- feed my life in vain.
 "I face my fate proudly conscious of the great privilege that is mine of dying for the cause of liberty, a cause more often betrayed than served these days
 Erskine Childers' American wife. an invalid, who directed from her sickbed a fruitless fight to save his life, has issued through the Review and NEA Service the following state ment:
 He has died as could have wished and I am prouder of him now in death than ever in life. ''If there is a God in Heaven he will take note of what has been done and in His own time will punish the guilty.
 "I have but one thought now and that is that the cause for which he died should be the gainer by his death. To my countrymen and women in America I would say: My husband has been slain for his devotion to liberty as we Ameri I cans understand it. Republicanism as l it is known in American states has been our ideal and we have drawn inspiration from the lives of the great 1 men who built up the glorious re- public of the west.
 "Those who cherish the memory and teachings of those great ones | will not deem my, husband unworthy | to rank with them as one of those who have sealed with their lives their devotion to the great cause"

late to-day. The President had left
his office but the wounded men. talked
with Secretary Christian Bender lost
an eye at Be]leau Wood and Rother-
mel leg at Chateau Thicrry.
Their visit capped the climax of a
sudden storm OF protest which broke
about the White House from all parts
of the country to-day following a re-
port that the public health surgeons
were to be ordered to rclinquish their
army rank.
Wounded men in hospitals through
out the country protested strongly
and the reaction was speedily felt here
by Senators and Representatives The
President himself knew nothing of any
such proposal and to-day began an in

report originated. In Administration
circles it was felt that the drive
against ordering the public health
physicians into civilian ranks was not
wholly disinterestcd and not propelled
entirely by eXservice men. the drive
is regarded in many quarters as a
piece of propaganda on the part of
those fighting against reorganization
of government departments and the
reallocation of government personnel.
In any event, the President has no
intention whatever of issuing any such
order, and Secretary Christian assured
Bender and Rothermel that they might
SO report to their comrades. The
Presidents secretary promised to pre-
sent to the Executive the petition from
the wounded men at Polytechnic urging
that no such action be taken.
Wounded men stationed here for
treatment gave little crcdcncc to the
report when the Presidents name was
coupled with it. "We've seen him at
Walter Reed" said one wounded man
stationed there, "and we know how he
feels toward us. Pm sure the Prcsi-
dent would not do the slightest thing
to hurt or offend us in any way"
