Judge Rules On Illegal ! Divorces

Hartford, Conn. July 18-(UP)- Superior Court Judge John A Cornell today rules two Reno Nevada, divorces, and one Maine divorce illegal in finding three Hartford men guilty of non-sup- port.
 Harold G. Schwarm, alias Regin- aid Van De We're and erstwhile Dish Rag Prince; Willard H Thompson and Raymond w. Grif- in, former Hartford Welfare Com missioner, all were prosecuted by the state for non-support on complaint of the wives whom they had divorc- ed out of state. All three men had remarried.
 States Attorney Hugh M. AL corn had charged in each case that the men had left Connecticut prim- arily to secure divorces, had sub sequently returned and, therefore, had not established bona fide resi- dences in Maine or Nevada.
 Griffin and Thompson obtained divorces on April 21 and June 15, 1914, respectively, in Reno and Schwnrm in Vienna, Me, in April, 1914.
 Judge Cornell found that because the accused had mo doinicile in the state where the divorce actions were brought" the courts of those states were without jurisdiction in the cases. None of the complain ing wives had appeared in any of the divorce actions.

Charter Vote Is Divided

Washington, July 1S - (U.P.) - { The Senate's four remaining veter- ans of the old League of Nations light gre split three to one in favor of the United Nations Charter, it was learned today.
 The lineup was just the other way around 25 years ago.
 The four veterans of the League light are Senators Kenneth D. Mo- KeAar, D., Tenn, David I. Walsh, D., Mass, Arthur Capper, R., Kans., and Hiram W. Johnson, R., Calif.
 Mcclellan, Walsh and Capper said they would vote for Senate ratifica- tion Of the new plan for a world or ganization to keep the peace, with force if necessary.
 Johnson, leader of the League opposition 25 years ago, went on record against the new treaty. He gave no reasons but promised a statement on the subject later.
 The new lineup means a shift for Walsh and Capper from the posi- tions they took during the League hght in 1919-20.
 At that time they both supported reservations to the League of Na- tlons Covenant in the Versailles treaty. Both voted against ratifica- tion without the reservations.
 Johnson voted for the treaty and against all reservations.
 walsh said he did not believe any reservations would be offered to the new charter and that he would vote Tor its ratification without qualifica- tzons.
 He isn't enthusiastic about it. But ne VIII vote for. it in the hope that as long as the nations of the world are bound together in an effort to preserve peace, there will be less nklihood of another war.

FORMER RIDING
 'ACE' RECOVERS
Charles Daniels Seriously Crippled in Crash Now
 Able to Walk

Charles Daniels of Middleburys former motorcycle racing champion, who was crippled in q racing acci- dent in 1889. is able to walk again as the result of treatment received at the Stamford Workshop of the Connecticut Society for the Grip pied.
 The former sportsman's case has been described by medical authori- ties as lone of the most remarkable recoveries on record" q
 EAniels had been paraly2ed from his shoulders down as the result of sine injuries sustained Aug. 27, 1889, when his motorcycle turned over during race at the track of the Norwich Lodge of Elks and Rec- reational association.
 Only last December Daniels ap- peared in the Waterbury superior court in a Eheel-chair to defend a civil action brought against him by his mother over title to Middlebury property. That suit was withdrawn following a preliminary hearing in the court.
 Daniels earlier, in October. 1922, had been unsuccessful in a $100,000 suit brought against the race track operators. The defendants filed . demurrer stating Daniels signed an entry blank which stated the track manager and owners would not be responsible for any injury. and the court upheld them.
 The recovery of the former cham pion is attributed to Dr. George Deaver, medical director of the i1- stitute, who gave Daniels treatments at his home before removing him to Stamford.
