Douglas Woodhouse So
Considered BY Elder
Woodhouses' Counsel
SEEKING NEW TRIAL
OF ALIEN ALTON CASE
Verdict Of $465,OO0 "Shock
to the Judicial Sense of
Justice"

Burlington, Dec. 30 Attorneys for
the defense confined all their efforts
to arguing for new trial in the Wood
house million dollar alienation suit
before Judge s. r. Moulton in Chit
tenden county court when hearing
was given on the motion to set aside
the verdict Of $465,000 against Mr..
and Mrs. Il. E. Woodhouse as being
excessive and bias. No attempt WAS
made to seek to have the verdict cut
down.
Attorney w. X. Austin, for Dorrit
Wo0dhonse, stated to the court that
he wished to have it appear on the
records that he had been handed the
motion five minutes before the argu-
ments were begun.
Charles H. Darling, who read the
motion first argued that the amount
of compensatory damages was gross
ly excessive because the case didn't
show anything Of peculiar value in the
affections, consort or companionship Of
Douglas Woodhouse 1t was necessary
In fixing the damages to arrive at the
value of Douglas rs married man.
There was nothing to show that Doug
las had peculiar value but rather
the evidence showed that he was of
less value than the ordinary man in
this respect.
The actual damages were inconsid-
erable, according TO Mr.. Darling's ar
gument. The loss Of conjugaI society
was inconsequental. After Dorrit and
Douglas were married they were to
gether but a small part of the time
and the final separation came about
a year after the wedding. There was
nothing 10 show that any effort was
made by either Dorrit or Douglas 10
hold the other. There was feeling
OF indifference between them all
through their married life, If it wasn't
something less. There was no effort
at home ties. The attorney also ar
gued that there was nothing to show
that Douglas was susceptible to out
side influences and there was also no
evidence to show that there was any
coercion used by the parents.
Douglas was not worth any more
Nhah %UotUuu anu abf alu nv cOulu
render in financial way certainly
could not exceed that. Judge Darling
argued that to place the valuation Of
a man worth $4,000 at S465, 900 was
4 shock to the judicial sense of JUS
tice." He also argued that when it
came to the pain, humiliation and suf-
fering Of the wife in the case there
was nothing to show that it was any
greater in this case than in similar
Eases which had resulted in a verdict |
ss low as a dollar.
Dorrit Woodhouse was in the court |
room but neither Mr.. or Mrs. Wood |
mousse was present. There were few
,r than a half dozen persons in the
audience.

MORTGAGE ON
WEALTH OF GERMANS
TO TWENTY PER CENT
Is Said to Be Guiding Principle Of Rep
arations Proposals Which
Germany Will Make.

Paris, Dec 30.--A mortgage on the
wealth of the German people up to
20 per cent of its total value is the
guiding principle of the reparations
proposals which Germany will make to

TOR OF the Journal
The mortgage, the writer says,
would be established by means of in
come tax returns. Small business
world make direct payments on the
obligation, but in the case of large con-
Germs special shares of non-voting
stock having preference in the profits,
would be created All these shares
would be ccntered in bank in Hol-
land or Switzerland managed by a
mixed control board presided over by
q neutral.
Such mortgage, NJ. Chassaigne
says, is estimated by the Germans to
produce thirty billion gold marks. In
return, however, Chancellor Cuno, the
article declares, viii ask for abrogs-
tion of those clauses Of the Versailles
treaty which limit German commercial
activity
Although France accepts the prin-
ciple of mortgage ON German wealth,
the editor says that Herr Cuno's fig
ure is much too small inasmuch as the
French share in the total would drop
to sixteen billion gold marks, or about
half of the amount she has already
spent in reconstrueting the devastated
regions.

Maui Woman's Club

Much interested was manifested in
the talk given by H. M. Wells, Super
Vising Principal, at the meeting of
the Educational Department. of the
Maui Woman's Club on Monday after
noon. 1t is to be regretted that only
nine people were present to listen to
the address, as his remarks threw
much light on the work which will
be undertaken by our delegate to the
National Educational Convention.
Mr.. Wells explained the purpose of
various Acts and Bills either passed
or pending before Congress- providing
for funds for education along voca-
tional and agricultural lines in which
Hawaii, owing to the fact that she is
not yet a State, can have no share
altho the amount of taxes collected
from our Territory is more than is
obtained from half of the States. He
also mentioned the Towner-Sterling
Bill now before Congress, which CON
templates the establishment of an edu-
cational department in the u. s. gov
eminent and provides for a secretary
of education which it would seem
should be of at least as much import
ance as a secretary of war. In all Of
lHeSe uldtIeIS ouI ueleSdl expects 10
put in a word for Hawaii whenever
possible, and at least make an effort,
if nothing more is possible, to spread
information in regard to the educa-
tional possibilities and needs of our
territory.
Mr.. Wells stated that it is the in
tention to have Hawaiian-made things
IN exhibition during the week of the
convention. He called attention to
the entertainment which is to be
staged by the Maui Teachers Associ-
alton in the territorial building on the
evening of April %, and assured the
ladies that in buying a ticket they
would not be contributing to charity,
but would be insuring for themselves
