WOMEN MADE
MANS EQUAL BY
new CHINA LAW
Agreement All Needed Now
to Obtain Divorce;
Either May File.
BY d. G. BESS
United Press STAFF Correspondent


PEIPING, July 17.-Chinese hus-
bands and wives who can agree On
getting a divorce do not need to
bother about having judge ap-
prove, according to the new divorce
law effective this month. All they
need Is two witnesses.
The procedure Is simplicity itself.
A husband and wife decide they
want a divorce. They call in two
friends, write out a simple state
ment of their decision to separate.
and put down four signatures. The
matter is settled.
The old law is different. Chinese
women never could get a divorce.
Whatever the proyocation. The man
could get one very easily. He did
not need to trouble Judge, either.
Custom ruled that divorces could
be obtained by the husband for
seven causes, which covered a null
titude Of sins. He needed only to
tell his wife that she was through.
Either May Sue
II a husband or wife objects to
the divorce, however, under the new
law, court action is necessary. This
is the first time in China that courts
have been invoked in such matters.
The new law makes the woman
equal with the man. Man or
woman may sue for divorce for the
same grounds, which are similar to
those obtaining in the most liberal
states in America or Europe.
Under old laws, Chinese women
never could retain custody Of their
children after divorce. The man
always got them. Under the new
law, custody Of children is decided
entirely on the merits of the re-
spectiYe parents.
Affects Inheritance
The new law works an amazing
revolution in Chinese family rela-
tons. The Chinese woman is given
absolute equality before the law,
not only in divorce but in all other
matters. For the first time in
Chinese history, daughters are en-
titled to inherit their parents estates
equally with sons.
The new law Of family relations,
now effective, makes no mention of
the concubinage system, which has
been prevalent in China for centur-
les and still is common in some
parts of the country. While the
system IS not specifically outlawed
under the new code, it is made I'M
popular. For no provision is made
for children of concubines to in
herit, and this negative action
probably will kill the system.

BONDS To LEAD
IF MARKET IS .
STABILIZED
Hopeless to Expect Stocks to
Head Permanent Advance,
Spectator Declares
By THE SPECTATOR

NEW YORK, Dec. II 0NSo.
With such gilt-edged common equi-
ties as American Telephone,
Standard Oil of New Jersey, and
United States Steel in the fore
front Of the newest phase of the
decline, the recent hope for a
definite abatement of liquidation
appears more remote than ever.
The situation in the bond mar
ket is even worse, if that is pos
sible. In only one session out Of
the past 80, has the average OF
bond prices been able to record
any sort of price gain.
In this period, the Standard
Statistics index of so composite
bonds has declined from a level
Of 83.9 to $50, a sheer drop of
approximately IS points from
fixed interest-bearing obligations,
This is a situation unparalleled
in financial markets. Few in.
vestors will purchase even the
Soundest common stocks to yield
from S to z per cent, when it is
possible to obtain bonds with in
terest rates adequately covered
to yield as high as 10 per cent.
The answer to the future of
the stock market depends upon
the trend of bonds.

COTTON DROPS
AFTER FIRM
START
Trading Moderately Active But
Average Declines Are
2 to 8 Points

NEW YORK, Dec. II GNS).
Handicapped by the pressure on
outside markets, cotton futures
fell back slightly after a firm
start today, with the market
showing average. declines of from
2 to 3 points at midday.
Trading was somewhat more
active, with spot firms good buy
ers of distant months, especially
october. Cooperative brokers
bought December and January,
while Japanese interests were re-
ported picking DIP May and Octo-
Der. In addition there was con-
siderable price fixing by the
trade.
Offset by Liquidation
Offsetting this demand, were
liquidation of the near months by
Wall Street and wire firms and
heavy selling of May and July
by Liverpool. There was some
scattered hedge selling in evi-
dence, but this was held to small
proportions as a result partly of
wet weather in the South, there
being general rains extending
over the entire cotton belt.
The first estimate of ginnings
in the December / to 13 period
was given out by j. E. Bennett
& Co. at $4,000 bales, as com.
pared with $4,000 bales for the
like period last year. Total gin
nings for the season were esti-
mated at 15,350,000 bales, versus
13,259.000 bales in 1880. Accord.
ing to the estimate. there is
slightly over 100000 bales left
to gin.
The weather reports continue
to show some rain and relatively
cold temperatures through the
belt.
Mill Reports Light
The textile reports lacked en-
couraging. features, with day-to.
day sales relatively light and
prices showing no improvement.
At midday January was off 2
points at sos, March was off 2
at 6.26. May off 3 at 645, and
July off at 6.63.

s. H. Skogvold and son, Forest. of
Minneapolis, called on friends in the
neighborhood Monday and Tuesday, ON
their way to the north woods for a
vacation. Mr.. Skogvold owns a tract
of land in Sec. IL nearby, and started
to make farm some years ago, but
received very good position with the
Minneapolis Heat Regulator Co. which
is very much more numerative and
pleasant work. However s. H. is still
the same jolly good fellow and says
he would enjoy swinging the brush
scythe and the axe for a while.
Mr.. and Mrs. Loglen of st. Boniface,
parents of Mrs. Kuhn, spent the week
end at the Kuhn home here. Henry
Erickson and his mother of Shakopee,
and Miss LOglen, a sister of Mrs.
Kuhn, also visited at the Kuhn home
over the weekend.
The Achievement day of the Pine
County Poultry project which will be
held in the auditorium of the school
at Hinckley, Friday, Sept. rs, brings
to the public an interesting display of
what the project has accomplished
in this section. 1t should be of spec
ial interest to anyone who has not
been a member of the poultry project
and it is to these people in particular
that an invitation to be present is
extended. Come and bring your
friends whether or not they are in
terested in poultry and those sponsor
ing it are sure you will enjoy the day.
Lunch will be served at noon by the
members.
Several members of the Poultry
project met in the lunch room at the
school house last Thursday afternoon
and printed cards advertising Achieve
ment day which is to be held at
Hinckley, Friday, Sept. 25. Anyone in
this community who desires to go
with the crowd please let one of the
leaders know this week, so they may
know the exact number attending and
make arrangements accordingly.
