AUTHOR WANTS
DIVORCES MADE
DIRT CHEAP

NEW YORK, May 23.-Cosmo
Hamilton, British author, today
came out against the institution
Of marriage and advocated sand
10-cent store divorces.
He declared there was no reason
why an ex.husbsnd shouldn't be
courteous and hospltable to his
ex-wife. O..
Tells Details
Hamilton told the details Of bis
reported divorce from the former
Julia Curry, of San Francisco. He
sad he iexpected to visit his ex.
wife in California before he re.
turned to England. He said:
"She divorced me in May,
1928, at Nice, on the grounds Of
incompatibiIity of temper. That
is a vague phrase covering SO
per cent of disagreeableness on
the part of the husband.
"The report that Mrs. HamiI-
ton was in London with me in
1929 was true. 1 had the great
pleasure Of offering hospitality
to Mrs. Hamilton and her .
daughters for six months at my ;
home. I hope she will fire.
quentIy be my guest again."
Marriage Bars
Hamilton, the elder brother of
Sir Phillip Gibbs. commented
upon the $4,000 alienation suit
brought by Princess Nina Carac-
ciolo against Mrs. Hamilton al.
leging the latter had stolen the
affections of her husband, Con-
stantine Satar-Khan. He said:
81 have implicit faith in Mrs.
HamiltOn's integrity. knew
both the Princess and Colonel
Constantine. In fact, 1 took
more interest in them than
Mrs. Hamilton did"
Hamilton said that marriage
should be made so difficult that
nobody would want it. He said
there should be a way to supply
divorces at the 5-and-10-cent
stores-a scent divorce for the
average person and a 10-cent one
for those who wanted some caste.
LiaiSons Urged
He continued:
What would / substitute for
marriage? Why, temporary, sen.
sible and charming liaiS0ns.
Most marriages anyway are
based on cocktail parties and
sympathetic gin.
"If my system were tried for
50 years there would be a bet
ter human race, less unemploy.
ment and less confusion in the
subway, the school and the
street."
!. Hamilton termed the naval con
ference an advertising stunt by
Ramsay Macdonald.

HOLLYWOOD, Sept. s.
A story goes the rounds that
the head of q studio committee
Of safety decided upon a sudden
fire-drill.
Going into the grounds, he blew
shrillv upon q whistle which was
supposed to summon the entire
volunteer department.
To the officials amazement, no
one came. Hot uNder the collar,
he blew another blast, and fol-
lowed it with q third.
When no one answered this
time, he stormed into the admin
istration building to report the
outrage.
There he was told that all the
members of the department had
been let out the day before.
Slim summerville, the comedt
an, has had one day off since
April 81, when he finished mis-
part in "An Quiet on the West
ern Front" Before the start Of
this picture, he spent two years
trying to get few small jobs.
That's Hollywood for you.
The two masculine leads in
the Spanish version Of "The Big

City police this week, and spent
several hours in jail before they
could explain what appeared to
