WOMAN VOTERS RAP
LAX MARRIAGE LAWS
49 Varieties in 48 States and D. c.,
Buffalo Convention Con-
ferences Told.

BY the Associated Press.
BUFFALO,, n, Y, April 24.-Uniform
marriage and divorce laws, political
cIean-ups by women, more efficient
school teachers, cooperative housing
and protection of young Americans
abroad, were urged by various speak
ers today at conferences connected
with the annual convention of the
Nationla League of Women Voters.
An amendment to the federal Consti-
tuition in order to codify marriage and
divorce laws was advocated by Miss
Marion Griffin of Memphis, Tenn, be-
fore the uniform laws committee. She
cited forty-nine varieties of marriage
and divorce laws in the forty eight
states and the District of Columbia
and said they were undermining the
American home and family and lead
ing toward final breaking-up of the
states. In 1910. she said. one marriage
in ten was broken by divorce; Il; 1929,
one in six. -
Marriage Law Laxities.
"The evil of so many marriage laws
is apparent from the great number of
states in which there is no minimum
age law" she said. I'm many states,
neither good health nor mental fit
ness, nor financial independence in
any degree is required
Miss Elizabeth ]. Hauser of Girard,
Ohio. told the education in govern
ment and politics conference, we
can scarcely fail, to note the ex-
traordinary need for house cleaning
this spring
1T will be a great day for this
country" she said, when the women
voters, conscious of their might, un-
dertake a political cleanup with the
same vigor that characterized their
house cleaning at home"
The education conference was told
by DR.. Fletcher Harper Swift of the
college of Education, University of
Minnesota, that more than five mil
lion children of school age in the
United States are not in school
Mrs. Agnes Warbasse of New York
discussed the cooperative movement
before the living costs conference.
She said that if one million homes
suddenly were provided in the United
states the people of the country still
would not be well off for shelter.
The tariff was discussed before the
same conference by Edward F. Cos
tigan, member of the United States
Tariff Commission.
Moral Issue Raised.
There had been raised in the
Tariff Commission distinctly moral
issue, of concern to all citizens. he
declared. He cited an amendment to
an appropriation bill adopted by Con-
gress. providing that any commits
sioner having a financial interest in
an investigation shall forfeit his
salary as definitely committing Con-
gress to the unassailable view that
Tariff Commission Investigations
shall be conducted strictly in the
public interest.

Held Important Posts.

Dr. Karl Theodor Helfferich held
many important government posts.
including at various times the posi-
tions of ambassador to Russia, secre-
tary of the interior, vice chancellor
and director of the Deutsche Bank.
In January, 1915, during the world
war, he became minister of the treas
ury and was in charge of the German
war loans, for the successful flotation
of which he was awarded the iron
cross.
After the war, as a member of the
Reichstag he consistently opposed
any government whose policy it was
to pay war reparations. He came out
in opposition to the report of the
reparations experts under Brig. Gen.
Dawes because the plan embodied in
the report, he claimed, was too bur-
densome for Germany to assume.
Bitter-Ender in War.
DR.. Helfferich was one of those who
favored the prosecution of the war to
the utmost. In 1916, while minister
of the interior and vice chancellor, he
made pronouncements in favor of de-
portations from the territory occu-
pied by the German forces, and also
supporting the ruthless submarine
campaign.
His attitude toward the ReichStag
brought him into conflict with that
body, which responded to his attacks
by holding up his salary as vice chan
cellor, and in 1917 he resigned that
position.
His hobby was the rentemark. which
represented Germany's first attempt
to stabilize her currency, and which
is still in use pending the creation of
the gold bank of issue provided in
the Dawes report. Dr. Helfferich was
born at Neustadt, in the Palatinate,
on July %, 1872.
