Protection of Society Basis OfLaw-W Woman .Lazgyer

Pointing to the law of limitations which requires that all claims be made with a year of the date of injury, Mrs. Downs said that all though effects of an accident may develop after that time, the large number of false claims made en- corced limitation being made on the filing of claims.
 On the subject of wills, Mrs. Downs emphasized the importance of having such documents drawn by a reliable lawyer since the er- roneouS use of one word might be misconstrued, and the paroperty distributed contrary to the wishes of the deceased.
 She stressed the importance of making a will, pointing out that many times the ruling of the court is intestate cases does not dis tribute the property to the bene-. ficiarieS as desired. In instances where a married couple have no children, she said, the law provides that one half to be left to the sur viving marriage partner and the remaining half to collateral rela- tiveS.
 Distribution of Property
 If the surviving marital partner is a parent, he receives only one third of his husbands or wife'S estate, the remaining portion being distributed to the offspring, she ex- plained.
 The designation of domicile, not to be interpreted as residence is an important factor under the inheri- tance tax laws, Mrs. Downs said, illustrating her assertion with case in which the eXecutor of a New Jersey multi millionaire, who had maintained home in Pennsylvania, was obligated to pay the sum ot 70 million dollars to both states. One of the most serious problems facing the nation today, with the rate of divorces spiralling to unpre- cedented heights, is the lack of uni farmity in the laws of each sovereign state, she said.
 Reno Divorce Illegal Mrs. Downs emphasized that Reno Mexican, and Florida divorces are considered illegal by states, other than Nevada and Florida, if the di- vorce is obtained for the prime pur- pose of evading the laws of the state in which the petitioner is a resident, and subsequently, children of a later union, will be considered illegitimate under the law and not a lawful heir of the parent who ob- tained the divorce. Protest against such a union can only be made by a former marriage partner, how ever, Mrs. Downs declared
 The woman lawyer urged her listeners to study the bill for equality of rights of women which has been defeated annually in Congress by pressure groups, and to advocate its passage to further the emancipation of women.
 In concluding her address, she as- serted that the maze of laws which clutter our books today could be discarded if the individual would re- member always to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly.'
