UNEMPLOYMENT
 INSURANCE DUE FOR DISCUSSION
Expected to Be One of First Problems Of=
 fered Congress
BY RAYMOND CHAPTER Limited Press Staff COrrespOndent)

Washington-The first serious discussion of unemployment insur- ance in congress is expected to take place during the coming ses- sion, debate which may eventu- ally decide whether the govern ment is to adhere to its traditional policy of leaving unemployment problems to individuals and indus tries, or embark upon a program of public control.
 The force of the arguments for unemployment insurance and of all emergency relief proposals, will depenr somewhat upon the outcome of the fund raising cam paigns to be started by community chests and other local agencies, October 19. If an adequate total Is raised, the administrators con- tention that local agencies are able to take care of their prob- lems will be materially strength ened and the pressure on congress for relief less severe.
 In any event, however, bills will be introduced for full payment of the veteran adjusted compensation certificates, for creation of fed eral unemployment insurance of similar nature.
 Immediate full payment of bo- nus certificates has been urged by

RATE BRIEF IS FILED.
Would Permit Motor Lines to File
Schedules With Railroads.

Extension of railroad operations to
highway transportation, with partial
regulation of common carrier trucks,
was recommended today to the Inter
state Commerce Commission by the
New York Merchants Association and
the Shippers Conference of Greater
New York
In a brief filed in the commissions IS
investigation of coordination OF motor
transportation, the New York organi-
cations suggested that highway motor
lines be allowed to file joint through
rates with railroads and that they be
regulated in this respect. Where they
do not act in conjunction with rail-
roads. however, they argued, there
should be no regulation.
The commission also was urged to
consider seriously store door pickup
and delivery systems for the railroads,
adding that this would undoubtedly
result in many shippers giving rail car
riers their business if the terminal serv-
ice is of character to commend its
use and If the time in transit between
terminals is comparable with the serv-
ice offered by the highways"
The National Automobile Chamber OF
Commerce, In a brief filed at the same
time, argued truck regulations was not
in the interest Of the public service and
would be disadvantageous to the rail-
roads. Regulation, it asserted, could
not be effective unless contract carriers
also were included, and this has been
held unconstitutional by the courts.
1t is suggested the desirable recourse
of the railroads was to abandon local
freight trains in favor of trucks, add
ing, ut is impracticable to devise q
single formula for this adoption which
can be applied universally"

Question Up to Congress.
II the doctrine Of common law mar
riage is contrary to public policy and
public morals as was said by the Court
of Appeals of Virginia, Justice Groner
said 1T is for Congress and not the
colHts to do what is needful by appro-
priate legislation to declare such unions
null and void"
The court pointed out that the local
marriage laws make void alb initio
marriages contracted between persons
of certain degrees of relationship
and persons who have been previous
ly married and not divorced or
the marriage state otherwise term
mated, and voidS marriages between
idiots, parties below the age of con-
sent or parties incapable from physical
causes. They also provided for au-
thorizing ministers to perform mar
riage and give that right to any judge
of a court of record and arrange for
marriages OF members OI CHuICIi
which does not require minister to
be performed according to the rites OF
that society and the like.
Law Seeks Evidence Only.
There IS nothing in the statute
which declares that a marriage shall
not be valid unless solemnized in the
prescribed manner" Justice Groner
said. nor does it declare any particular
thing requisite to the validity OF the
marriage.
THE act confines itself wholly with
providing the mode of solemnizing the
marriage and to the persons author
lied to perform the ceremony. Indeed,
the statute itself declares the purpose
underlying the requirements to be TO
secure registration and evidence OF the
marriage rather than to deny validity
to marriages not performed according
to its terms"
The Court Of Appeals has had the
question of a common-law marriage
before it on at least two other occa-
sions in divorce proceedings and has
"side.stepped" the proposition, being
able to decide the cases without
rendering an opinion of that question
and the lower court has frequently
held that a common law marriage was
not legal.

Lenton said she thought the gun was
"a toy pistol" She got it off bureau
in the room of the boys father and
pointed the gun at Bernard as he

without going of, but the second time
it exploded.

When the boys father, Harvey Fox
