Turk President and Wealthy
Wife Part Ways in Simple
Ceremony

London, Aug. 14.-R-Curiosity
aroused concerning the reason for
the divorce Of MuStapha Kemal
Pasha. president Of the Turkish re-
public and his wife. LATHE Hanoum.
is not satisfied by the latest reports
from Constantinople. Among the
rumors current is one that it was
mutually arranged. 1t seems that
although divorce is quite as frequent
in Moslem as in Christian countries.
the odernization Of Turkey has not
yet altered the custom Of treating
such matters as the private concern
of those Immediately affected and
no publicity attends a separation.
According to one statement pub
lished here, the old Moslem law
which confers husband arbitrary
power over the wife still obtains
and to procure a divorce is extreme
ly simple. A man wishing to be rid
of his wife need merely summon a
witness and solemnly declare that
he divorces her and the thing is ac-
complished.
A wife cannot appeal, but is en-
titled subject to any specific mar
riage agreement to retain her dow

that LATHE brought large dowry
when she married kemal in JAM.
1923. but there is alleged to be an
agreement whereby she forfeits part
Of it if divorced.
LATHE, daughter Of one Of Smyr-
mas wealthiest merchants. became

countries imbibed with feminist
ideas which she took back to her
home.
She first saw Mustapha Kemsl

worked with him. but said it was

Cannot Get Work Because
of Divorce Publicity

Alpena, Mich. Aug. 14.-LP)-Mrs.
Edna J. Scott returned to Detroit to-
day to continue her fight for a live
lihood while Judge Frank limerick
took under consideration the bill Of
her Congressman husband, Frank d.
Scott for an absolute divorce.
Despite pleas yesterday that the
fifty dollars n month from her hus-
band allowed by the court pending
final settlement Of the case, is in
sufficient to provide her with the
necessities of life, Judge limerick
refused to increase the amount.
Ward H. Peck told the court that
the publicity that has arisen from
hearing Of the divorce action has pre-.
vented Mrs. Scott gaining employ.
ment as a nurse or in any capacity
for which she is fitted.
The single ray Of hope extended to
Mrs. Scott was the judges assertion
that he would make an early decision
which would make some permanent
provision, one way or another for
Mrs. Scott's upkeep.
Extravaganza and serious legal
and moral indiscretions" on the par,
Of Mrs. Scott were charged by the
eleventh district Congressman as
reasons why he should be granted a
decree.
Mrs. Scott made flat denial of all
thees charges and in her cross bill
alleged gambling and drinking.
Judge limerick, at the conclus ion
of the arguments late yesterday re.
quested counsel to prepare additional
briefs covering the salient points OF
the testimony. Counsel for Mr.. Scot,
was given 20 days to prepare such q
brief and Mrs. Scott's counsel was
granted an additional 20 days te

"As a practical means of carrying

instance of certain commodities, the
carriers will propose as a matter OF
expediency. that the percentage OF

for money, except in the case of a
threat to the President of the United

CULTURE MARK PROGRESS AT
MANDAN EXPERIMENTAL DEPOT
Crossing Strains of Grain Develops Varieties of Rust
resisting Wheat

Crossing the strains of wheat is as
easy as crossing the strains of ami
mails and is done on somewhat the
same principle, experts at the United
States experimental farm at Mandan,
say. The main difficulty comes in
perfecting the strain after the cross
once is made and last but not least,
in getting millers to accept new
varieties, in the opinion Of Robert
Wilson. acting superintendent Of the
station.
The cross is made by removing the
anthers, or what agronomists desig-
nate as the male element Of the
wheat, on the day before the flower
Is expected to open. The next day,
when the opening occurs, it is i'm
pregnated with pollen from the strain
which it is desired to cross and the
job 10 completed.
One of the most interesting ex-
periments being carried on at the
station now is that in which Kota
