OF an order of the District Supreme

peatedly said that the granting or re-
fusing of temporary allmony and the
amount thereof rests in the ju5icia!
discretion of the trial court not to be
lightly disturbed or without good cause.

states a cause of action for maintenance
under the statute We think it does"

NEARBY VOTERS
MAY GET LEAVE
Maryland and Virginia Situa-
ton Studied by U. S.
Officials.

Despite the economy act with its
rigorous restrictions against leave in the
Government service. it appeared likely
today that voters in nearby Maryland
and Virginia would be given leave of
some kind from Government depart
ments so they Will have plenty of time
to cast their ballots
Chief clerks Of the various depart
mentS and establishments were going
over the situation carefully today upon
receiving official request from the Ar
lington County Republican Committee
asking time off fer voting.
While no definite decision had been
reached at an early hour today. it was
freely predicted in high official circles
that there Will be no trouble about ar
ranging some kind Of leave for all voters
who wish to cast their ballots in the
election Tuesday.
Arlington County Protest.
The protect from the Arlington
County Committee came from l. c
Macpherson. chairman, who complained
that last election many people were
unable to vote because of the conges-
tion at the polls between the time they
opened at O'Clock in the morning.
and the time Government people had
to start for work. in order to be in
their Offices at 9 O'Clock. AS the polls
close at Sol O'Clock in the afternoon,
it was pointed out that this would be
too late for Government people to vote
after getting out of office at 4:30.
Precedent for voting leave was found
in the action of President Hoover two
years ago in allowing all voters to get
of at $50. The message was con-
veyed to the departments by telephone,
and orders given to allow the extra
hour off in the afternoon.
Only Sick Leaves.
The economy act, it was pointed out
in high official circles, eliminates all
Government leave with pay except sick
leave. There is no language in this
act. however, it was officially explained,
which could be interpreted to prevent
voters from leaving their desks, say, at
3 80 in the afternoon. Although there
was no word forthcoming from the office
of Controller General McCarl on the
matter. it was understood from other
sources that the question would not
have to be submitted to him. nor would
he be likely to raise any objections on
the ground Of the economy act. Some
kind of presidential authority probably
will be likely it was pointed out, but
there appeared to b. little doubt but
that it would be forthcoming in plenty
of time to arrange for time of to vote.
