The Dole i'm England
Farmers Have to Help Bear Burden, but Are Not
Eligible to Receive Benefits Of Relief
System Under Law

carried on by industries, but they were
absorbed in the general government
scheme The insurance industry, the
banking industry and the agricultural
industry remained outside, the two first
mentioned at their own request, the
agricultural industry because an agree
ment satisfactory to all could not be
arrived at. The railroad industry also
remained outside, but there has been
some unemployment among those en-
ployes who have not reached the con-
tractual limit, and these have been eligi-
BILE to the government dole.
Significant Testimony.
At recent examination by the Royal
Commission some significant testimony
was given by representatives OF each Of
the banking and the insurance indus
tries.
One witness for the insurance in
dustry pointed out that special
scheme worked better than the gen.
eral scheme of the government, be-
cause there is an intimacy between
the employer and the unemployed
which is wholly lacking in the goy-
eminent scheme.
Certainly" added the witness, "if
insurance by an industry is an i'm
possibility then the whole system of
ulASaAAlI@Oy AAASAN AAASSASNA ~ NSN $50
possible"
One witness gave 1t as his opinion
chat if every prosperous industry in
England would contract out Of the
general scheme and look after its own
unemployment insurance under gov
eminent compulsion the final residium
of unemployed for which the state
would have to provide would be rela-
lively small.
SeIf-Insurance Now Doubted.
1t was quite apparent as the hearing
went on, however, that the advocates
of the separate industry plan were
talking about really sound insurance
and how to keep 1t free from abuse,
while the members of the Royal Com
mission were thinking a great deal Of
the social and political problems In
volved in the giant scheme Of the gov
eminent which has lost all character
as insurance.
One witness suggested that If the
sum saved by administration could be
added to that distributed to downright
shirkers the balance required could be
met by the industries and their regu-
larly employed without great difficulty.
The insurance industry and the bank
ing industry together insure over 300,-
900 workers.
I asked an important Englishman II
this plan of self-insurance could not
be made general. Doubtless it could
have been if we had taken 1t in time, "
said he, "but it's hard TO get insurance
on a house after the fire has started.

ruling ON DIVORCE
. MAY HIT DEMPSEY
Los Angeles Judge Sets Aside
Reno Decree, Holding
Action Fraudulent.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
RENO, New, September 3o.-The set
ting aside of a Reno divorce decree in
Los Angeles yesterday was regarded here
as having possible bearing on the i'm
pending California court test of the di-
vorce granted in Reno recently to Jack
Dempsey.
In invalidating the decree granted
here in 1929 to Mrs Jessie E. Bowman,
Judge Joseph p. Sproul Of the Superior
Court in Los Angeles held that per-
son who came to Nevada for the sole
purpose OF obtaining a divorce and
evading the California laws was guilty
Of fraud.
Won't Recognize Decree.
Estelle Taylor. actress wife of the for
mer heavyweight boxing champion, has
refused to recognize Dempsey's Reno
divorce and is preparing to seek de-
/ cree herself in Los Angeles. Counsel
for Dempsey have indicated they will
offer a contest when Miss Taylor's case
comes to trial.
If the Los Angeles court should fol-
low the ruling there is a possibility that
Dempsey'S divorce may be declared in
NdIIQ. OcLHpSCys AlOWOFCAS
better than usual residence here under
the six-week divorce law, even to the
extent of purchasing property and en-
gaging in business so that possibility
likewise exists that the California
courts might recognize his default de-
cree as binding.
Dempsey was a resident of Los An
geles before coming to Nevada, and Miss
Taylor still resides there.
Follows Supreme Court.
Judge Sprouts decision was in line
with the ruling of the United States SUI
preme Court in the case OF Andrews VS..
Andrews. The high court held that a
divorce was invalid where person tenn
porarily left one State and did not es-
tablish bona flde domicile in applying
for divorce in another State.
The decision Of Judge Sproul occa-
stoned no surprise in this capital Of easy
divorce as the courts Of California have
never looked with favor on Reno de-
crees in the event of contest.
Such complications do not figure in
many cases disposed OF in Nevada, be-
cause both. parties are glad to end the
marriage and let it go at that

I'm his efforts and the work Of the
commission he can be assured of the
hearty support of the Volunteers.
With relief missions in almost every
city, We have prepared to do our share
among the unfortunate. That this need
will be great is shown by figures COW
ering our activities during only so days
Of the last Winter.
"In that period We aided 122 ssa
families and provided meals for 2,207,.
O84 persons. We consider this but an
indication Of the manner in which our
people will respond to the added neces.
stiles to be placed upon them this
Winter"

"No resubmksion resolution should

people elect Senators and Representa-
tives who have declared themselves be-
fore election days that they are favora-
bic to that proposal
IT was commended that for "the dry

ali the territory under the United States
Aag The cr-v for beer is an effort to
remove that criminal brand from some

closed yesterday after passing resolu-
lions condemning "Government-im-
posed restraints on trade"
Delegates pledged closer cooperation
between industries of the South and
Midwest with the Latin Americans.
Adoption Of the resolutions condemn
ing Government restraints" followed
an attack on tariff barriers by T. j.
Caldwell, Houston banker, who said "the
great underlying cause of the depres-
sion of which the world Is suffering
today is Government interference with
the full flow of commerce in the form
of protective tariff, embargoeS and
subsidies, all of which resulted in I'M
economic production. unsound capital
ization and credit imitation"
Charge Revival Delayed.
The conference resolution said: at
Is our studied conviction that Govern
ment imposed restraints on business are
contributing to the delay in the revival
of reciprocal trade, which is so es-
sential to business recovery throughout
the world"
"It is our opinion that the economic
welfare of all nations would be well
served were LIle government 10 GlIIIil-
nate, in so far as possible, all unnecessary
restraints and hardships on reciprocal
trade"

DECLARES DANGER !.
IN CREDIT ABROAD
Nebraska Democrat Says
Private Loans to Europe
Should Be Stopped.

BY the ASSoclateo PreSs.
NEW YORK, September 30.-Exten-
sion Of private credit to European ma
lions at the present time was deplored
yesterday by Arthur F. Mullen of
Omaha, Democratic national commit
teeman from Nebraska, upon his return
from a European vacation.
1T Is dangerous to extend private
credit to other countries when their
public debts are so large" he said.
1.-THE Federal Reserve Board should
have and use the power to stop it."
Mullen said citizens of countries he
visited were bitter against the United
States because of the tariff.
Against Debt Reduction.
Their attitude is that we demand
payment of debts, then won't trade with
them so they can pay them" he said,
adding that he was opposed to cancel
Iation or reduction of debts.
Mullen and his wife visited England,
Scotland, Ireland, Wales, France and
Italy during their three months abroad.
Mullen said he found living conditions
comparatively good in France, Italy and
the Irish Free State. They plan TO
leave for Omaha late this week.
1.-THE Free State movement is doing
fairly WELL" he said.
Mullen predicted the Democratic
party WOulu sweep tHe NdIloIl III next
years presidential election.
Secs Democratic Victory.
During times like these" he said
little issues don't count. The CAM
paign will be fought on important issues
and I am certain the Democrats will
win"
He said it was too early to predict
what presidential candidate would get
Nebraska's vote at the Democratic Ma
tional Convention, adding, however, he
believed that II Gov. Charles w. Bryan
were to announce for the presidency
no slate would oppose him in the Me-
braska primary. Mr.. Bryan has made
an excellent Governor"

Irene Castle Mclaughlin, the famous
dancer, lost what appeared to be the
final round in her fight with Farmer
Schroeder, whom she accused Of being
cruel to his pigs, by feeding them un-
palatable fare and allowing them to
walk around in the mud on his farm
near Wheeling, Ill.
Schroeder originally was convicted in
a lower court and fined $40. He ap-
pealed to the Criminal Court, where the
jury ruled he could take his $40 and
go back home. Before he left, however,
he intimated he might take civil action
against the North Shore society leader
and champion of the rights Of friend
