FINDS PERJURY
WIDESPREAD IN
DIVORCE SUITS
Duke Instructor Says "In-
nocent Spouse" Con-
cept Is myth"

DURHAM, May 4. (UPD.-The
requirement before law that the
successful party TO n divorce suit
must be considered legally "inno~
cent" is both an unrealiStic and
ineffective concept, Professor }.
S. Broadway of Duke University
Law school. claims in u recently
published article.
The article, "Thc Myth Of the
Innocent Spouse" appears in the
April issue of the Tulane Law Re-
view.
Bradway, who teaches courses
in family law, states the rule
leads to wholesale perjury in di-
vorce actions because of the ne
cessity of proving one Of the par
ties has wronged the other rather
than that they are unable to live
compatibly.
Furthermore, he observes, the
legal rule tends to direct the at
tention of the court to a side is
sue instead of the main question
in the divorce case.
Bradway proposes the following
remedies:
|. Creation of a specialized
court to deal authoritatively with
family problems.
2. A court to control families
persons and property pending in
vestigation and subsequent ruling
8. A change in viewpoint thru
education.

THINKS SPANIARDS
LANDED in STATE
BEFORE THE BRITISH

ELIZABETH CITY, May a.
CUP)-Prcvalcnce of the pelli-
tory tree in coastal North Caro-
lima should be sufficient evidence
to prove the Spanish arrived in
the state before the English, ac-
cording to w. p. Wood of Eliza
beth City.
Woods Cmrituck Sound prop
crty abounds with these trees.
The root of the tree was rec
ognizcd as healing herb by the
Spaniards centuries before Amer
ica's discovery, Wood explains,
and it is possible they may have
introduced the tree into North
Carolina. 1t is a native of North
Africa, batonically known as an
acyclus pyrehrum.
As further evidence of Spanish
settlement in North Carolina,
Wood points to the colonization
of jamestown, Va, by Spain 81
years before the English rule.
The Spanish colonistS, number.
ing 500, came from Haiti and
made a brave stand against the
Indians and elements. Wood said.
But fever. internal disSension and
Indian fights finally drove them
back to Haiti.
