which Mr.. Brawner secured a large
interest in the business only a few
weeks before her husbands death
with the right to purchase his in

business is worth $1,000.00o.
The terms Of the compromise are
not made public. but it is understood

ing of the conference here between
the American and Mexican delegates
appointed to discuss the differences
between the two governments found
officials, public and press all optimis-
tic that recognition of the Obregon
administration by the Washington
government would follow.
1t has been unofficially learned that
the Mexican government is prepared
to promise support of the pending
petroleum legislation intended to
meet the requests of the United States
without infringing her national SOW
ereignty and dignity by signing any
treaty acceding to these requests as
preliminary requisite to recognition.
1t was reported on the eve of the
conference that a solution avoiding a
pre-recognition treaty, and at the
same time offering the effective
guarantees which the United States
is seeking. might be found by fol-
lowing the precedent established in
1886, when both governments agreed
upon a diplomatic modus operandi
for the settlement of otherwise baf-
fling difficulties.
President Obregon made public a

Grant One Divorce IN Chicago
+ For Euery Fiue Marriages

following number of divorce DEGREES
have been entered: 1906. III; 1914,
1O6; 1915, 130, and 1922, 191. In 1885
the ratio was one divorce to every
seventeen marriages.
Some Of the reasons for divorce ad-
vanced by the judges are: Entrance
Of women into the fields of commerce,
industry and business, too much
Jazz" too much cabareting and
liquor toting. tra-sophistication of
the rising generation, tendency of
young marriage couples to live with
their parents. thus becoming sus-
ceptible to their influence, failure of
extracting parties regard properly
the solemn bonds of matrimony, too
little religion in the home. poor cook
ing. resulting from woman's desire to
leave the home fires" for a business
career and makeshift delicatessen
dinners.
Economic marriages, where both
husband and wife work, the figures
indicate. are a success, as the prin-
cipals rarely seek dissolution of the
matrimonial bonds.

FRENCH SATISFIED.
British and italian Notes Better
Than Expected.
By the Assccic ted Press.

By the Associated Press.
PARIS, May 14-Premier Poincare
will acknowledge recent of the
Italian and British replies to the
German reparation proposals without
comment. it was said at the foreign
office today.
French official expressions thus far
heard indicate there is considerable
satisfaction that the notes from Lon
don and Rome did not vary so radi-
cally from the Franco-Belgian stand
point as was thought might be the
case.
Stress is laid on the fact that both
Lord Curzon and Premier Mussolini
claim credit for drawing the Germans
out. and this is taken as an indica-
tion that both think the proposals
made by Germany may prove to be
the starting point for new negoti-
ationS.
1t is also pointed out that the
writer's of both notes dwell upon the
lack Of guarantees in the German
offer.
