vacant the seat of Senator Elect
Frank L. Smith of Illinois.

resolution if that clause is dropped.
Advocates of the resolution do not
consider the point important, be-
cause the Senate already has denied
Smith the oath.
The final speech of the resolution

Husband Largely Figure
head" Says Georgia Court

\ trace of bitterness may he detected in u recent
tieorgia Supreme Court decision reversing n lower
courts finding that husband liable for dam
ages To the victim of injuries inflicted by an auto
mobile driven by said husbands wife. the Pacific
Northwest BUSINESS Chronicle states
TIE somewhat sardonic ultimatum reads as fol-
lows:
by sweeping changes IN the law governing the
civil rights of married women. the doctrine of the
merger of the civil existence of wife and husband
has been practically swept away. While the hus-
band is still declared by statute to be the head of
the family he, like the King of England. is largely
fgurehead. Since the husbands rights and pri-
,ileges have been swept away by the statutes of
this state and rs by yarious statutes. why should
he be held To his old-time marital responsibilities?
Therefore husband is longer liable under our
statutes for the independent forts of his wife not
committed by this command with his consent
and in which he did not in any way participate"
Probably more than one long-suifering husbands
chest swelled with of delayed justice as
he read the sweet words of the Georgia court.
But whether he had the courage to read the deci-
sion aloud to his better half is horse of another
color.
The personal columns of newspapers have long
been dotted with little notices reading:
"So-and-so will no longer he responsible for
debts contracted by Mrs. SO-and-so, his wife"
Perhaps the next form of the personal will
boldly state:
"John Doe announces to the world that from
now on he is not responsible for persons mutiated
by Mrs John Doe while she is at the wheel of the
family carr
There may even come time when courts will
hold back-seat driver wives to account for motor
mishaps.
