France Alimony Case
Before Court

Judge ]. Owen Knots dismissed
in the Cecil Circuit Court, claim
for non-payment Of alimony against
former Senator Joseph |. France and
warned attorneys for France and
his ex-wife that they should get
together" and stop arguing.
Judge Knots who has presided
at hearings begun with Frances di-
vorce action against his wife, the
former Russian princess, Tatiana
Dechtereva, ordered the $300-a-
month alimony payments kept up
to date cor else
Mrs. Frances claim of non-pay-
ment, testimony indicated, develop
ed from mix-up. Counsel for
France said she had failed to col
lect two payments left for her at
the New Windsor Bank.
Judge Knots asked France di-
rectly if he planned to continue the
payments, and the former Senator
replied he intended to do SO as
long as his income permitted.
So long as the court order, hand
ed down September 20, is in effect,
requiring payments of the $500
monthly, failure on Frances part to
make the payments would constitute
contempt of court, Judge Knots
warned, dismissing the complaint.
