UPH0LDS WIVES Who
REFUSED TO MOVE
Too Late To Ask Court To Rule
That MatrimOny Is Form
OF Bondage.

Judge Albert A. Doub in ruling in
two divorce cases at Cumberland Sat
urday upheld the wives in refusing
to leave comfortable homes to accom-
pany their husbands to Detroit and
Cumberland, respectively. In the
case of Mrs. Ruth Albright Shertzer
against Patrick Shartzer, of Frost
burg, in which application had been
made to rescind and vacate the divor-
ce decree given the wife, Judge Doub
said:
at is too late a day to ask the
Court to rule that matrimony is a
form of bondage wherein the husband
is master and the wife his slave"
The Court overruled the motion to
strike out the decree 1t was also de-
MED that a decree was Improperly
passed.
In his opinion Judge Doub made a
modern construction of the material
relations as concerns the duty of the
husband properly to domicile the wife.
1t was argued on behalf of the defen-
dant husband that Immediately after
the marriage he urged his wife to go
to housekeeping, that she refused, and
when he wrote from Detroit and sent
her money for her car fare, she still
remained at her parents home. Shar.
tiers attorney contended and insisted
that it was for the husband to deter
mine the domicile of the parties, and
that it was the duty of the wife to go
and reside at any place he might Sc
lect.
Judge Doub said: As a general
principle the Court understands this
to be the law, but only within certain
limits and subjects to the qualifca-
tons and place of abode selected. one
selected with some reason and some
discretion, and consideration must be
had to the health and safety of the
wife and her comfort.
Whatever may have been the COM
mon law, in this enlightened modern
age, when all forms of slavery are
supposed to have been abolished and
woman has been almost completely en-
franchised, it is too late to ask the
Court to rule that matrimony is a
form of bondage wherein the husband
is master and his wife his slave. It
is true as the defendant argues, that
in matrimony a new social unit is

sponsible for and intrusted with
carrying out the policies of the ad-
ministration,-which policies the ad-
ministration is charged by the peo-
pie with carrying out.
The first concern of any man or
group of men who are placed in
charge of a corporation or a business
and entrusted with putting into eff
feet and carrying to successful con-
clusion a certain policy is to surround
himself or themselves with body of
loyal and efficient subordinates,-
subordinates who not only go thru
the motions of work but who so firmly
believe in the policyOf their superiors
that they put all their ability and all
their sympathy into the work This
loyalty, this esprit de corps, is the
very essence of the merit system.
Without it there could be no merit
system; the term becomes a mock
cry. The head of a railroad, or indus
trial plant, or business corporation,
or banking house who would tolerate
people upon his payroll who were
faithless to the institution in that
they did not believe in its policies and
were eternally breaking down the mo-
rale of its employees and publicly crit
icising its management would be
foredoomed to failure.
1t is exactly the same with the adj
ministration of the government. Civil
service and the merit system must
mean something far more than the
ability of individuals to take COM
petitive examination on cut and dried
lines and obtain a certain percentage.
The merit system in public admins
trative Offices means loyalty to the
policies Of the administration, willing
ness to put ones shoulder to the
wheel and ones heart into the work
to make these policies 100 per cent
successful.
Where an employe is not doing this
in public affairs he or she should be
dismissed the same as they would be
in like circumstances in a private cor
poration.
There must be no outside organiza-
tiOns whose standard of work, whose
DEGREES in regard to hours of labor
and quantity of output take prece-
dent in the mind of the federal en-
ploye over the orders and the wishes
of the heads of the government.
The civil service system must re-
fuse to permit itself to be used by
such outside organizations for the
purpose of protecting faithless en-
ployes. The president and his admin
istration in their determination to
clean out inefficient and disloyal help
in all departments of the government
have the heartiest support of all well
thinking people, especially of tax
payers who foot the bills incurred by
the incompetency, Indifference lazi-
ness and extravaganza of such help
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1922-04-20
THE COUNTRY is STANDING
WITH THE PRESIDENT

The country is standing with the
President in his determination to put
more business in government by get
ting rid of inefficient and disloyal en-
ployes.
The protests of Democratic leaders
against the administration placing
loyal employees on guard in the res
ponsible executive Offices are having
little or no effect upon public opinion.
The arguments advanced by over en-
thusiastic supporters of the civil SER
vice system to the effect that the ad-
mlnlstration is breaking down the
civil service and yielding to the clamor
of spolsmen is an argument that will
not stand up under honest analysis.
The only excuse which the civil ser
vice system has for existence is based
upon the supposition that it means
merit and efficiency in public admin.
istration. If it does not produce
these two qualities there is no Justice
for the civil service system in public
affairs.
There is no one familiar with con-
dltions in the federal department at
Washington but knows that during
the past eight years the civil service
system has been used to break down
efficiency rather than promote it. 1t
has operated to protect slackers, agi-
tators and incompetents in public SER
vice rather than to Dust them and
make for merit in public work. It
has joined hands with organizations
outside the jurisdiction of govern
ment officials and with the cooperation
Of these organizations it has installed
IN the departments at Washington a
bureaucracy which places a premium
upon the slowest, most incompetent,
most wasteful, most Indifferent and
most rebellious employees. 1t has
with the cooperation of these exter-
nal organizations bred a spirit of
open INSTRUMENTATION and gross ex.
travagance in nearly every federal
department.
AS result of this condition thou
sands of federal employees look to or
CARNATIONS outside the government

acter of their work rather than to

MHY MEN 40 MRONG

A great deal of time is being spent
by such eminent bodies as the Law
Enforcement Committee of the Amer
lean Bar Association, by newspapers
and by special workers in an effort to
find out why men go wrong and be-
come habitual criminals.
Six prisoners in the Joliet peniten
tiary have been asked what led them
astray. One of them said expense of
entertaining "flappers."
Another put the blame on failure
TO keep first offenders away from
hardened criminals in county jails.
Prohibition enforcement officers who
do not make it impossible for him to
get whiskey were blamed by one man.
A college graduate, who after the
war had "a queer kink" in his mind,
thought he could beat the game"
This convict volunteered the observa-
ton they teach you things in war
they won't let you practice later"
These excuses are familiar. The
flapper Of today is Mother Eve of
Father Adams day. Selection of a
place in which to incarcerate a first
offender presents a difficult problem.
Putting him among the virtuous may
corrupt them; to determine just how
hardened his associates may be with
out harm being done to anybody
would stump Solomon. A man who
blames lax enforcement of prohibition
laws for his plight wouldn't fare well
under a system that allowed drink.
Neither a college graduate nor a nom
college graduate can beat the game"
An honest soldier learns nothing in
the army that handicaps him in civil
life.
The fact is these convicts, like most
other persons, avoid the central fac
tors in the production of professional
criminals. Those factors are greed
and laziness. Men turn criminals be-
cause they want to live as they mis-
takenly fancy millionaires live with
out doing hard work millionaires do
to gather and keep their fortunes.
They are greedy for what they CON
ceive to be the good things of life,
but they are too lazy to work hard
enough to earn them.-New York
Herald.
