U. (. ROMANCE ENDS
 ABRUPTLY IN COURT

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 22.-Gil- bert Loken, jr., thought it was fair CT to his young and pretty wife to tell her he loved somebody else than to have her find it out for herself, she asserted in a petition for divorce, disclosing the wreck of a romance begun several years ago at the University of California, which was filed in Los Angeles.
 Mrs. Loken, who was Miss Ruth Adelaide Phillips, daughter of MT. and Mrs. Erwin Phillips of Los Angeles, and Gilbert Loken, son of MT. and Mrs. Gilbert Loken of Oak land, elopcd and were married at Burlingame, September 10, 1923 They had met while attending the Uni versity of California, where both were prominent in student affairs. Mrs. Loken is a member of the Alpha Chi Omega sorority and Lo- ken belongs to the Beta Theta Pi fraternity.
 After the elopement Mrs. Lo- ken's petition sets forth, her hus- band found he loved another, be- came abusive to her and finally sert her d letter saying, T have been trying to make myself love yOu hut cannot and npvar will be able to.
 The letter also said Loken had tried to put his wife before some one else who means the world to

That Bonus Matter

TT MAY be true that kind words will never die
the old song runs but it is also true that they be-
come less empty by frequent repetition, and
anyway they butter few parsnips.
So much for President CoolidSes genial and sweet
compliments to the defenders OF this republic in his
message vetoing the bonus measure.
His objection resembled in measure, the abb OF the
famous but fictitious Mr.. Johnson who had mo money
but good excuse" Plainly Mr.. Coolidges veto rested
on the proposition that the country cannot afford the
price of the bonus owing to tax burdens and the neces-
sity Of cutting down expenses. 1t looks like good
excuse.
The presidents suggestion that have right.
even if we have the power to take money from and
the larger portion of ctzenry in order that we may
give it freely to another and smaller portion is quite
sound We have such right but have done it and
are doing it all of the time If do not do it by direct
provision we camoufage it and get with it times
without number. Few of those whom we have trusted
with our government have failed to enter with spirit into
this popular indoor sport Mr. Coolidge may be- and per-
haps u.s. sincerely different and distinctive
Against the presidents intimation that we cannot af
ford the price of the bonus, however the exsodiers
might with truth retort that neither could they afford
the price of war but they did it, just the When
called to fight they not asked if they could afford
to do it-not at ALL Their personal concerns, financial
and otherwise, of moment. They were told, in
more or less direct manner that they expected
to give everything including their lives If necessary,

not and they responded freely gladly enthusiastically

As to Child Labor

NOV that they face to face with the probability
~ of losing the protection of the supreme court the
employers and advocates of child labor put to it to
find arguments against promised restrictive legislation
that is undoubtedly in harmony with decent public
thought and demand They find no such arguments,
for there Only do they find 1t possible to
appeal that DID, and threadbare theory that legis
laton Of this character is infringement Of the rights
of the states. In other words, the states, and not the
nation should legislate the subject of child labor
because ii is of state alone That Of course,
would defeat the whole humane and righteous PROPOSE
ton, the very result these employers and advocates
desire.
ANY condition that makes for lliteracy. immortality,
ihealth and mental inadequacy is not Of mere state
concern-it is a to the nation. Any toll that
reaches into the and industry Of nation is of
national interest Child labor meets both these PROPOSE
tons fairly and squarey. and there can be no doubt
about it.
For every unjust unfair burden the nation allows to
be placed upon the weak shoulders OF the children of to-
day it will sorey pay in the days to Greed and
eishness should not be permitted to drive us to such
a calamity.
