lutte divorce In Rockville. met the

terday.
Attorneys Neudecler ana Mason.
representing the elderly banker,
filed plea to the jurisdiction Of
the court, setting forth that the de.
PENDANT was q resident or the State
of Maryland and that the plaintiff
had only lived iii washington two
days before she filed her suit.
Justice Gordon took the case nm
der advfsement and informed Mrs.
Gould's counsel, z. Morris Wamp-
Ter, that he would render his de-
cision on the issue Thursday. In
the meantime he win allow the
attorney to file supplementary

against each other for divorce. they
allege cruelty and Ill treatment.

from him, and that when she re-
fused he persisted in his course of
III treatment toward her to such
an extent that she was forced to
leave him.

Workers aplenty are writing to
state why they are for Or against
giving employment to married
women when there are not enough
jobs for all the men seeking work.
but thus far no large employer
has come forward with his views
or to tell why he does or does not
give preference to men and to
single women obliged to support
themselves.
Surely this question is suffi-
GENTLY timely to warrant the seri.

It not highly desirable that a sound

false standard Of living Is created
by two incomes 1t Is mighty hard,

 Mrs. Arsanault was placed on the stand this morning, but Attorney Harry l. Ginsburg objected 10 the wife testifying against her husband. Attorney Greenstein claimed it was an optional privilege. Judge Roche adjourned court for the purpose of definitely establishing the point

wife when she has received personal violence from her husband may upon trial therefore be compelled to testify in the same manner as any other witness. The neglect or re- fusal of an accused party shall not be commented upon to the court or jury"
 On the strength of this section Judge Roche admitted the wife's tes- timony.
 Arsanault in his own defense de- nled he made any liquor to sell, tell Ing the court that if he made it to sell he would not have to work six days week in factory. He made the reply that he bought the whiskey from a man he never saw before or since on street he did not know the name of.
 He said he has been married for l5 years and has lived in New Brit am year and a half. He never sold any liquor, he said, but made It for his own use and treated his friends every Saturday night He said he has 15 or 20 friends and they come to his house every Satur- day night to drink. He explained the presence of one of the cans in his house by saying he bought a gallon of liquor last Christmas because he could get it cheaper by the gallon. He did not know where he bought it.
 Attempting to explain the presence Of the other cans, he became some- what confused as to how he get them. finally stating he thought maybe his boy brought them in.
 Out of consideration for the fam lily of Arsanault, the two childr4e being present with their mother and making good impression in court, Judge Roche said he would make the fine less severe than the usual custom. He imposed a fine of $50 and costs and a sentence of 30 days in jail on the charge of selling H.
