Court Eases Restrictions
On Absolute Divorces

Absolute divorces were made more
easy to obtain in District Court for
/ those who have previously filed bills
for limited divorce and for whom
grounds for total separation have
accrued In the interim, prior to the
first case coming to trial, it was
learned today.
District Court will sanction the
filing of complaint for an absolute
divorce. by paying the $40 filing fee,
plus costs, now, in cases where the
limited divorce bill has previously
been filed but not yet come to trial
so that both causes may be con-
solidated upon final hearing.
Justice James w. Morris today
! announced the new policy from
the bench, but made it clear that
the court will not tolerate any con-
tlnuances for the purpose OF max
ing up the two-year period of de-
sertion, now one Of the grounds for
an absolute divorce.
Only where the cause of action
Tor an absolute divorce has now ac-
crued and, in view Of the fact that
the court is behind in its civil
docket some 10 months, will the
court look with favor upon the filing
OF new complaints for consolida-
ton with those previously on the
oocket, so that no hardship might
be worked upon couples.
A continuance of 80 days was per-
mitted Attorney James r. Kirkland
by Justice Morris today, in one OF
the nrst cases under the new plan.
IhlS decision was reached by the
court Yesterday in general term. with
all available justices present, so that
complaints for absolute divorce
might be filed Immediately before
the limited divorce cases come to
trial.
Only where jurisdiction of the
parties has been secured, said JUS
tlce Morris, will the court consider
the enlargement of limited divorce
into an absolute divorce, where two
complaints have been filed under
the new program to obtain this.
amendments to limited divorce
actions will not be sanctioned under

Legislative Council
To Study Highway
Proposal Tomorrow
MocD Donald AppIouds
O'Conor's Stand for
Safety and Beauty

By the Associated Press.
ANNAPOLIS, Md, Nov. 7.-Gov.
O'Conors proposal for legislation
regulating the commercialization of
property along Maryland highways
will be submitted to the Legislative
Council at its meeting here tomor-
row.
The proposal has been Endorsed
by Thomas H. Macdonald, chief
Of the Bureau Of Public Roads,
who wrote the Governor: The posi-
tive leadership you have so recently
expressed in favor Of a legislative
program to preserve and protect the
roadsides of Maryland is very in
spring to every person interested
in the practical development Of
safer as well as more attractive
highways.
Your clear understanding of the
fact that both the safety and eff
cheney of any highway are in direct
relation to the favorable or unfa-
vorable conditions of adjacent road
sides is so sound and commendable
that I want to add my Endorsement
to your efforts.to find a more salts
factory solution to this vital high
way safety problem
Gov. OConor recently expressed
concern over reports that Anne
Arundel County commissioners were
powerless to prevent issuance Of
building permits to commercial
structures along the new Gov.
Richie highway because Of made
quate State laws.
The Anne Arundel County grand
jury, at the instigation of Circuit
Court Judge Ridgely P. Melvin, last
week completed an investigation Of
the highway problem. Their re-
port recommended that county
commissioners tighten regulations
covering public health, safety and
welfare to bar commercialization
of the new road until the Legisla-
ture can enact more comprehen-
sive laws along lines suggested by
Gov. O'Conor.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-12-02

lision seldom occurs unless some in- jury is sustained by the pedestrian.
 Tn exercising due care the driver is bound to anticipate the presence and actions of pedestrians. He has no right to assume that the road is clear. It is his duty to warn pedes- trians of his presence by sounding his horn. He must be able to stop in the shortest possible notice in the presence of children, regardless of tn cir unforeseen or unexpected movements or actions. He must show the blind and the aged spe- cial consideration. And, when cross- ing a sidewalk on a driveway, to strike a pedestrian can not be clas- sified as anything other than gross negligence.
 Summarizing the rights and du- ties of both pedestrian and motorist toward the safety of the pedestrian are simple but emphatic. Following an auto-pedestrian collision the driver is exonerated only if he availed himself of every means at his command to avoid injury to the pedestrian-the pedestrian, only if he has been careful. So to reduce accidents during this season, as we'll as for the year to come, 194O both drivers and pedestrians have only to follow their respective re- responsibilities toward each other as prescribed by law and reason.
 The moral of this can be stated as being: Let reason be your guide."
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-12-02

(Continued from Page D
 The Waterbury Republican, 1t was stated in the report of the Demo- cratic Town Committee that they listed receipts of $1SS.65 from the Scully group and the same amount from the group backing Senator George T. Culhane as the fees which under party rules must be paid by any individual or group participating in primary con- test. In it's account of expendi- lures the Town Committee lists $365 as the expenses of the party's primaries"
 An official of your committee told me recently that the expense of conducting a primary is de- ducted from the deposits and the balance of the deposits is returned to the depositors. I assume that S611.35 of the $500 deposited by MT. Scully and MT. Culhane was returned to each of them. Divid- ing $1S8.65 by g (the number of voting districts in which Mir. Scul- ly and Mir. Culhane each present. ed tickets) we find that a fee averaging $5.S9 per voting district was paid.
 In view of the above facts con. cerning the first city-wide primary conducted since your committee has required "a deposit of $25 for each voting district in which . ticket is presented" would not . deposit of $10 for each voting dis trict i'm which . ticket Is presented be sufficient to cover expenses likely to be incurred by your com-

The Forum committee Of the Second Congregational church of which Roy H. Walch Is the chairman, wishes to announce that Lowell Thomas has acc cepted an invitation to speak under the auspices O the For um next October, 194O. The invitation was pressed upon MT.

It is further announced that Sir Wilfred Grenfell has accepted an invitation to speak at the Forum some time in November, 1940, and that George Morgan, director of the Glee club at Taft school, will bring his Glee club to the Forum some time in February or March of this sea- son.
