At times "Volonor" is yellow and
impossible. AT times it is SO melo-
dramatic and so impossibly over
drawn that ] became Disguised. And
then, suddenly, the author would dc
one of those strange tricks of the
writing game--he would get down
to realistic business and do a fine
job of drawing dramatic situation.
= "Volonor' is the name of a new
Republic squatted in beautiful area
of water. 1t was founded by a New
York multi-millionaire for the pur-
pose of protecting his sister from
fortune hunters.
But the dangerous idea back of
the founding of the island was that
of doing away completely with
marriage laws. The labor of its
citizens was to support the woman
and children.
The founder of "Volonor" main
tanned that his island republic was
not free love colony.
John Wentworth, founder of
VoIonor, in an interview given to the
press in the book, states: There
will be no marriage law, and that
statement works both ways. There
will lie no law against marriage or
for marriage. If your religious
convictions tells you to marry, there
will not be the slightest objection
but the marriage will not be
recognized except as a form Of con-
tract. If a marriage contract is

Y 1--WE propose to emancipate
women from economic bondage. We
intend to make it Unnecessary for
a woman either to sell herself for a
meal ticket or to enter 1.-THE in
dustrial field and run the risk of
losing the greatest blessing that can
ever fall her lot--motherhood. We
expect to recognize that woman
giving birth to a child is performing
as great service to humanity as a
man can perform in feeding and
clothing that child. 1t is mans duty
to provide nourishment and pro-
tectiorr and we propose that he shall
not escape that duty.
Women and children will be the
wards Of the State, supported by a
tax of SO per cent on all men. If a
woman insists upon following a
gainful occupation the income she
earns will be similarly taxed. She
will retain her own name and her
