anything could be. I'm not an anarch-

like this over. The Hoosier Motor

HALF NEWLYWEDS
To ASK DIVORCES
IN 1924 LOSCHE
County Clerk Paints a Cynical
Picture From Figures
of 1928,

Half the persons in Marion County
who get married in 1924 win ask for
divorces; and half of these viii kiss
and make up before it's too late. So
says County Clerk Albert H. LOsche
In review Of his marriage and di-
vorce statistics for 1928.
In 1928 there We're 4,705 marriage
licenses granted, 4 per cent more than
in 1922 There were 2,291 divorce
suits filed and 1924 granted, both an
increase of Il per cent over 1922 ng-
ures.
Payment of alimony after divorce
holds no lesson for many, says Losche.
Every day sees someone getting a di-
vorce in the morning and marrying
again in the afternoon. Alimony of
$147.957 was paid in 1928, a % per
cent increase over 1922.
BootIeggers aided in increasing fines
and forfeitures from Criminal Court
319 per cent. In Probate Court 1,215
estates We're opened, an increase of
90 per cent. The largest estate closed
was that of James Z. Roberts.

is collected by indirect taxes in the
shape OF fees to various boards. These
con1scatory taxes must be reduced.
