John 7. Adams Brings Report
of G. o. P. Conditions In
Middle West
By GEORGE e. DURNO

SWAMPSCOTT, Mass, Aug. g.
In line with the Administrations
plan to unloose its heaviest artil-
lery in an effort to win the coming
Congressional elections, President
Coolidge today delved into the
political situation in the States
just west of the Missippi river.
John T.. Adams, of Iowa, former
chairman of the Republican Ma
tional committee, was the man
who brought to the summer White
House here report on conditions
| id the middle West.
He advised Mr.. Coolidge how the
impending Senatorial fights were
shaping in his section.
| It is In the region represented
by Adams that the President ex-
poets the hardest fight. Particular
attention viii be paid to the win
ming OF Wisconsin, Iowa and North
and South Dakota. These States
are the center OF the insurgent
Republican strength under the
leadership Of the late Senator La
Toilette.
In Wisconsin. present indications
point to Young Bob" LaFollette
fathers place. Presidential advisers
look upon former Governor Fran.
els e. McGo1ern as the probable
choice to carry the Administra-
tons standard. The situation
there is further complicated. &C
cording to reports reaching here,
by the prospect of a Ku Klux Khan
candidate and another candidate
representing the 'twets."
In Adams own State. Iowa, Sen
ator Albert s. Cummings will stanc
for reelection, while it is expected
that he viii get the Republican

mept.
cans gave their support to the
Democratic nominee running against
Brookhart and almost defeated him
They are now wondering whether
Brookhart forces may not in turn
throw their support next year to
a Progressive Democrat.
In North Dakota. the vacancy
created by the death of Senator
Ladd must be filed. Governor
SorIie was not yet determined
definitely whether he must call u
sneciaI election or whether he has
the power of appointment. 1t is
thought here, however, that
snecial election must be called. In.
anv event. contest for this seat will,
have to be made again in 1926.
In South Dakota, Senator Nor
hack will run for reelection.
Norheck Is still recognized as a. regu-
lar republican, although his vote

aroused the ire of many Administra-
ton leaders.

JAPAN CHANGES
MARRIAGE
LAWS
New Civil Code to Make Union
Without Parents Consent
Impossible
By Tnternational News Service


TOKYO, Aug. 3.-Virtual total
reform. of the existing Japanese mar.
rage laws is seen under the civil
code of Japan, soon to be promul-
gated as law.
Under the new code marriage
without the consent Of the parents
win be impossible, regardless Of the
age of the parties. There win be
more equality between the sexes.
divorce will be frightened up. while
the stain of illegitimacy will be prac.
tically abolished.
The alterations in the code deal
very largely with the question of
family relations, the rights of
parents and grandparents over sons
and daughters, and the matter Of
adoption.
Protect IIIegitimateA
From now on If the father of a
child is known no stain Of illegiti-
macy can be attached to it. The
child is the legal offspring of the
father, with all the rights Of legiti-
macy.
To certain extent the vast diff
ference heretofore apparent in tho
status OF women in Japan with that
of man Is done away with. Pre-
viousiy to this code wife could
not bring an action for divorce
against her husband for unfaithful-
ness, while a. husband could for this
and a score OF other reasons. The
revised code states that while
ordinary unfaithfulness on the part
CT a husband Is not explicitly made
a ground for divorce, Immortal con-
duct is. An unofficial explana-
ton is that a man with barren
wife may quite properly have heirs
by another woman or women.
Divorce Difficult
Previous to the revised code di-
vorce has been very easy to obtain.
The new code tightens the mar
riage knot. Any married couples
previous to the code could dissolve
their marriage by filing a state
ment Of mutual agreement to a di-
vorce. But now this cannot be
done except with the consent of
the parents Of both parties and
the added counsel of their grand
parents. This is to prevent a hus-
band bringing undue pressure to
bear upon his wife to force her
to consent to a divorce, it being
argued that while he could prob
ably coerce her, it would be ex-
tremely unlikely for him to be able
to coerce her parents and grand
parents.
A further gain for women in the
revised code is that it is forbidden
for the foster parents of an adopt.
ed daughter to sell her into
geishadom. With their blood daugh-
tiers they may still do as they
please.

immediate family of the deceased per-
son-the death of any relative will
suffice to fulfill, in their opinion, the
prognostic.
ThlS superstition has it's origin in
the conception of the ancients with
regard to the relations existing be-
tween the living and the dead and
their idea Of the needs and require
ments of the world of shades. Atten-
tion has been called to the idea of
primitive man that the spirits Of the
dead desired companionship that in
their journey into the "great darkness"
they ought to be accompanied by some
of those who were near to them in
life. Hundreds of slaves end captives
were slaughtered upon the grave Of
Attila in order that his spirit might
have on the stygian shore a retinue
appropriate for so great a king; and
Indian widows met death upon the
funeral pyre of their husbands in or
der that the departed rajah might be
consoled beyond the veil.
There appears also to have been an
idea that when these attentions were
not bestowed the spirit of. the de-
ceased might possibly and under GER
tain circumstances, exercise a power
of summoning companionship from
the living world; and in the classic
stories of the Heroic ages we find
now and then ghosts that will not rest
until human sacrifice has been made,
actually or by substitution.

EVE

TT is fitting that Eve, the oldest
l. name in the English language,
should mean '1ife." 1.-The mother of
all living" was originally called by
the title Chavva, which the Alexan-
drian Jews, coming upon in their
translation, rendered as Zoe. Later it
was Latinized as Heva and finally
becomes Eve on English lips.
CuriOusly enough, Eve has never
been a popular name In England. On
