MIDNIGHT MASS IS PERMITTED ON
 CHRISTMAS EVE
Bishop Milan Sends Word to All the Pastors
 in Diocese

Permission has cen granted to all Catholic churches of the diocese to hold midnight masses on Christ mas Eve, it was learned by the Democrat this afternoon. Letters have been sent to all pastors in Connecticut notifying them of the special permission granted by Most Rev John J. Milan, bishop of Hart ford.
 Most of the Catholic churches in the city will take advantage of the bishops permission, it is believeds since dispensation for holding the service is unusual in the diocese. The reason for the permission is to help churches of the state make further observance of the current jubilee year in the Catholic church.
 The celebration of midnight ser- vices on Christmas Eve is custom ary in the old world and in many parts of this country, but has been rare in this diocese. The last one held here was in 1924, on the Eve of the Holy Year jubilee observed throughout 1925.
 News of the bishops permission comes as surprise, as no such ac- tion had been expected. Bishop Milan has not authorized the hold- ing of midnight Christmas Eve services on more than few oc- casions, although several local pas-

RULING IS GIVEN
 UPON INSURANCE
Status of Policies Under State Law Explained By
 the Court

The first ruling on the exemption of insurance policies in bankruptcy cases under a new state law en- acted by the legislature in 1883, was handed down today by Ref cree Walter F. Torrance in the To- cal U. S. bankruptcy court. The decision, four pages in length and covering the subject exhaustively, is rendered in the case of Carl E. Bengston, doing business as the Berkshire Sales Co. of Waterbury.
 It is an an unusual decision, be- cause it allows a bankrupt to claim exemption for an insurance policy, no matter whether the policy con tains a clause reserving the right of the insured to change the bene- ficiary.
 Up to the present time, bank ruptcy referees have ruled that only in cases where a wife IS named beneficiary and the policy contains the reserve clause, Is the trustee of an estate prevented rom claiming interest in the policy. II the policy named sister, brother, mother or someone else, the trus- tee appointed for the bankruptcy estate, could claim interest to the policy by having the insured name the trustee the beneficiary instead of the beneficiary already in the policy.
 Under Referee Torrance's de- cision. a trustee cannot claim in terest in a policy under any cir cumstances, unless he proves that creditors of the bankrupt have es- tablished their claims prior to July

PRIMROSE PATH
 OF DAVID HUTTON
Aimee Semple McPherson Relates it in Action to
 Secure Divorce

Los Angeles, Dec 21.-(UP)-A primrose path lined with pretty chorus girls who caressed and kissed her errant husband was de- scribed to-day by Aimee Semple McPhersop Hutton on grounds of divorce from portly David L. Hut ton, Jr.
 Striking back at her husband who instituted divorce proceedings last summer, the evangelist ac- cused him of cruelty in moving to bring to an end their two-year old romance in a counter-suit.
 The counter-suit was filed only few hours before she returned home from nationwide evange- listic and vaudeville tour.
 Hutton was accused in the cross-complaint of stooping to cheap" publicity stunts in further ing his stage career. He allowed himself to be photographed with "scantily-dressed girls whom he permitted to caress and kiss him" in 'utetr disregard to the marital status of the parties and disclos- ing marked attitude of indiffer- ence toward her (his wifes) ideals, wishes and desires" according to the complaint.
 Aimee who herself drew $4,000 a week for several vaudeville appear ances, described herself as ''an in- ternationally known evangelist who .. has been devoting all of her time and energy in promulgating by the preached and writetp word, at home and abroad. the fourfold message of full gospel evangelism. the Bible .. the second coming of Jesus Christ and the return of the apostolic power of healing" All these ideals were utterly dis regarded by her husband in em- barking on a stage career, Mrs Hutton alleged.
 Hutton's career" at present has has been reduced from that of a vaudeville headliner to that of an entertainer at a small, local night club.
 His wife alleged as an additional act of cruelty his plight in being named defendant in $200,000
