Judge Warns Alimony Seekers Not to Look
 Forward to Luxuries
By Associated Press

New York, January 24-Justice Guy, in the Manhattan supreme court. today told prospective alimony seek CTS that after separation or divorce they cannot expect to be supported in the luxurious style to which they had become accustomed during the marriage.
 Tt is not the policy of the law" Justice Guy declared, that a woman who is asking to end the marriage contract shall have all the luxury of marriage. It is t0e policy of the law that she should be entitled to such an allowance as would make 1t pos sible for her to live in the manner in which she had been accustomed. But that does not mean that she is entitled to one-third of the 4ncome he receives. She cannot expect all of the extras that loving husband would naturally bestow upon her if the two were living constantly to- gether.'
 This statement came in the suit Q z Mrs. Mary A. Schlemmer for aIimonv in her separation suit against her. husband, William F. Schlemmar, mill lionaire hardware dealer, who. Mrs. Schlemmer contends, promised her an annual income of $14.500. Counsel for Schlemmer deny this and claim that only $7.500 was offered
