A coat, like this one from
Mainbocher, with a bib collar
is another of the smartest new
fall coats. This model is made
of smooth black wooden, closely

from top to bottom. The Persian

Topped bib on the bosom and

buttons down the center front.

Marriage
Is Not for
Children
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX


OF LoDe and MGrriGge)
A girl of eleven has usually
forgotten the doll she loved
when she was six. But poor
little 11-year-old Mary Frances
Grimes, married recently to a
cotton-picker, aged Ct, at Poplar
Bluff, Missouri, still loves her
doll and says so.
Furthermore, she doesn't love
anything or anybody else, this
unhappy child, young for her
age, confided to the authorities
who investigated her shocking
marriage.
Afterward, they placed the
aged husband in jail on a charge
of perjury in falsifying his
brides age and for contributing
to the delinquency of a minor"
FAR FROM ENOUGH
Mary Frances can be rescued,
her doll restored to her, her
marriage annulled, the husband
and father penalized in whatever
fashion you please. But that is
far from enough.
The epidemic of child mar.
riageS is becoming too wide
spread. Passing more laws won't
check it, or failing more hus-
bands.
People in general-you and I
and the next person-will have
to show that we really care. Pub
lie opinion is what counts. Per
haps it's the only thing that does
count, in a matter of this sort.
Girls Of II and 70 don't, of
course, know what marriage is,
and shouldn't know.
IMMORTAL EXAMPLE
In spite the immortal ex-
ample of 14-year-old Juliet and
her grown-up love-story, and in
spite of the fact that some Of us
had great-grandmothers who
married at Is, the view prevails
nowadays that a girl isn't really
ready for love and marriage un-
til she is 10 at the least.
And for my own part, would
delay the wedding longer still.
First let a girl be educated in
one way or another, though not
necessarily through advanced
schooling.
Let her become a real person
in her own right, clear-headeG
and responsible. Then she will
not only be more able to tackle
her marrial problems, but will
be a finer and more lovable
woman.
GOOD EXPERIENCE
The experience Of holding a
job, if only for a couple Of years,
seems to me an excellent prepa-
ration for marriage. And in
saying this, I'm not forgetting
the vital Importance of know
ing how to cook a roast and run
a house economically.
We can all see, of course, how
these premature bridals come
about. Picture it for yourself.
An ignorant, impoverished
family, with more children than
it can feed or clothe; a would
be husband (perhaps he's some
body's grandfather) making a
parade of benevolence by offer
ing home and support for the
prettiest little girl; an official
with an itching palm, hearing
the rustic of banknote and
so consenting to perform the
ceremony.
So who is there to heed the
terror in the eyes Of the girl
child who is being betrayed and
sold? Who but all of us?
Let's see that child marriages
are utterly tabooed!

81 EXECUTED
BY SOVIET AS
JAPAN SPIES

MOSCOW, June 29 U.S).
Thirty-seven employees of the
Trans+Siberian railroad have been
executed at Khabarovsk for Spy
ing in the service of the japanese"
the newspaper, Pacific Ocean Star,
reported today.
These executions increase to
131 the number of prominent
political, industrial and military
figures to pay with their lives dur
ing the past six weeks for crimes
or fancied crimes against the
Stain regime.
Report LupinSky Seized
News of the Siberian executions
reached Moscow coincident with
the circulation Of a rumor in for
eign diplomatic circles to the effect
that Iakov DolteSky, director of
the Tass News Agency, committed
suicide when he was trapped in
connection with the current purge
Of Dictator Stains enemies.
At the same time, it was rumoIed
that Pavel LupinSky, chief politi-
cal writer for the official Soviet
newspaper IzveStia, was the latest
leading journalist to be taken into
custody. Neither Of the rumorS
could be confirmed in government
quarters.
In the case of Doletsky, the
story spread that he took his life
about 10 days ago rather than
face imprisonment, trial and pos
sible execution for his activities.
He was said to have committed the
act while agents of the OGPU
waited to take him to Lubianka
headquarters.
Formerly in Washington
Doletsky's disappearance was
noted when he failed to appear at
foreign receptions where he had
been a frequent guest. He had di-
rected the operation Of the TaSS
Agency, the official news distrib-
uting medium, since 1925 and was
well known abroad.
LupinSky, according to reports,
was suspected of conspiring against
the. Stain regime in completely
with Nicolai Bukharin, former
political expert of Izvestia, who Is
now under arrest. He was formerly
the papers correspondent in
Washington and the author of
several political works.
While these rumorS appeared
to have good foundation. the
government denied point-blank the
reported arrests of SigiSmund
Levanevsky, famous Arctic flier:
Gen. T. I. Atkins, chief of the army
air force; and Alexander Aroseff,
president of the society for cul-
tural relations with foreign coun-
tries.
