Reconciliation
Did Not TAXI"
Divorce Action
Started Again

Divorce action between two resi-
dents OF Home community on the
Peninsula, started once last Novem-
Der but dropped when the pair
were reconciled. was back in Pierce
county superior court Thursday.
Said Ada Mary Bowie Of her
husband. Richard Z. Bowie. the
defendant does not work but lives
on an inheritance he receives from
England which said inheritance
amouts to approximately $500 per
month. During the last year ne
has become an habitual drunkard.
Charges Cruelty
Complaining Bowie spends a
good proportion of his income on
liquor and is ''over two thirds CT
the time drunk" she charges MIN
also with extreme cruelty and with
driving her and her minor son by
another marriage from the home
May 5. Stating he has threatened
to go to England and leave her
stranded, she asked and obtained a
temporary restraining order.
OF Bowle's $500 per month, Mrs.
Bowie asks 5000 in alimony She
also wants him restrained from
disposing of S1.40O in the National
Bank of Washington, their two
acre tract at Home, their rs chicx-
ems and 1899 sedan.
Asked $3.50 Then
Last Nov. ], when Mrs. Bowie
filed her first suit, on almost iden-
teal grounds, the two had been
married only two years. She esti-
mated his income a little higher
then, at $500 a month and asked
for $3.50 of it.
Before 1t was settled that time,
Bowie filed counter charge that
his wife was run by relatives, that
she had left him several times dur
ing their brief marriage and on
one occasion had checked out
$500 from their joint account and
returned only $500.

So, the word was passed up
and down the aisles and
through the cloakrOoms that no
record vote-a vote on which
each would have to record his
stand for or against the pro-
pOsal-would be taken.
Opposition to the bill as it
stands, came from two sources:
Those who thought the United
States should go farther in
helping Finland and should
avoid what was denounced as
political flim-flamming" by
making provision for a direct
loan to the Baltic state; and,
OH the other hand from those
who were openly fearful, that
American neutrality would be
jeopardized, and the United
States ultimately drawn into
the European war.
Two important amendments
were rejected, n of them a
proposal by Rep. Miller (R-
Comm to make a direct loan Of
$50, 100000 to the Firms. with
no restrictions on the purchase
of outright war supplies, beat
en- LOG to 40; and the other by
Rep. Kean (R-NJ) intended to
prevent Export-Import bank
loans to any nation in default
on its obligations to private citi-
zens of the United States. The
latter was defeated 1875 to Sc,
