Slump In Marriage Licenses

Ohio's new marriage law, which
requires a five days notice, is caus-
ing a terrible slump in marriage
licenses throughout the state, ac-
cording to reports made by probate
judges. Not single county shows
an increase in the number of Ii.
censes issued since the law went in
to effect July l. In fact all coun-
ties show drop in the number of
applications, that is in many cases
as much as so percent over the
same period of time last year.
While the probate court is author
lied upon good cause shown" to
dispense with the five days notice,
but very few lovers attempt to
show any further cause than they
are in love and want to get mar
ried. Hundreds of them prefer
going tC neighboring states and
getting married the same day they
apply for the license.
