IRISH DIVORCE BAN
| ASSA|[ED IN DAHL
Law Lowers Morality, Poet
Senator Charges-Tyranny,
Another Says.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
DUBLIN, June 1.-THE Free State
Senate yesterday discussed the ques-
ton of divorce. Senator William
Butler Yeats, the poet, in an i'm
passioned speech against the Free
State governments refusal to provide
means for dissolving the marriage tie,
said he objected to Ireland's taking
her marriage law from SPAIN
Separation without the possibility
of remarriage, Mr.. Yeats continued,
lowered morality. Dublin's chief
street contained three statues, of
O'Connell, Nelson and Parnen, the
Senator said, and he was proceeding
TO refer to the moral history of these
men when Lord Glenavy, who pre-
sided, asked him to leave the dead
alone.
Mr.. Yeats declared Professionalism
stood for personal liberty. In reply
Col. Maurice Moore said that the
Irish Protestants had decided to have
no divorces in Ireland. The only
question now, he added, was whether
the Dali Senate should consent to
pass special acts of Parliament in
individual cases.
Woman for Repeal.
John BaGwen, who is manager of
the Great Northern Railway, asserted
that facilities had existed for the
Irish people to obtain divorce from
the British Parliament and that the
refusal by the Dali Senate to pro-
vide similar facilities would be re-
garded as an act of tyranny.
Senator Thomas w. Bennett said
the State of South Carolina, a Prot
estant State, had no divorce laws, and
that it was most moral State. Sena-
tor the Dowager Countess of De Sart
protested against the idea that the in
diSSolubility of the marriage tie pro-
tected the sanctity of the home.
Senators John T. O'Farrell and
Thomas Foran, Laborites, opposed di-
vorce on social grounds. AS the ques-
ton was still left in an indefinite
stage. it was suggested by some of
the Senators that legislation to settle
D. one way or the other should be in
Aoduced.
In February last the lower House of
the Irish Free State Parliament adopt
ed a bill introduced by President Cos
grave, declaring the bond of marriage
an iHdiSsoluble tie. In March the res
olution of the Dali came before the
Senate and Lord Glenavy ruled it out
of order. He held that such a resolu-
ton was in distinct conflict with the
standing orders and in direct violation
of the constitution, and very dan
gerous precedent.

Hundreds Of Volumes to Be Pre-.
 Sented to Institute

Hundreds of classics In Hebrew. Yiddish and English. covering a broad diversity of subjects. will be added to the bookshelves of the New Britain institute, provided the rec ommendations of three or four members of the Cans -Aisenberg me- morlsl committee are accepted at the meeting of the New Britain Zionist organization tomorrow night in Talmud Torah hall.
 Local Jews are very much in earnest over the selection of fitting memorial to the memory of their two chief leaders and the contribu- ton of books to the local library seems to be the one plan on which all minds concur.
 Officials of the institute, when in- formed of the proposed gift this morning. declared unofficlally that such gift would most likely be gratefully received.
 One member of the Gans-Aisen- berg committee. and he is the leader in the move to perpetuate the mem ory of the dead leaders, said today that he was absolutely certain that the gift would be made, the only doubt fin his mind being as to whether the library would welcome the collection or not. He said that the donation uoNId rt,, into Seyara thousand dollars In value and would represent number of books never before seen in this district and would also include 8 large number of volumes on biblical subjects. 8 complete Talmud set and the Jew tsh encyclopedia.
 He eaid that the Cans collection and books now at the Hebrew school at Talmud Torah hall and the 1000 already raised some years ago for the Aisenberg memorial would be the nucleus of the gift, to which would be added a fund now being collected for the Cans memo. rial and large number of books from private families throughout the city, the sum total amounting tc considerable and rare collection,
 It vas the original plan of inc joint committees for the two funds to create library at Talmud Torah hall In honor of the two leaders, but when this new plan vas broach ed and IL vas pointed out that the en. tire city might thus be enabled tc share In the usage of the books members of the committees were in. clined 10 adopt the latter plan, Ii was also pointed out that consider able expense would he attached tc the establishment of library IT Talnud Horah hall, and that this money could be turned over to the purchase of more books, should thi, new plan be acceptable.
