Mrs. Lafta lawrence
Plea for $50 a Week
Maintenance Denied

Mrs. Eilene Diana Latta Lawr-
ence's plea for $150-a-week sepa-
rate maintenance from her hus-
band, Navy Capt. Harold Alexan-
der Latta Lawrence. was denied
in District Court today after the
judge was told she received about
$500 month from another
source.
Before ruling on the request,
Judge Matthew F. Mcclure asked
David Cobb, defense counsel, where
Mrs. Latta Lawrence is living
now and the amount of her in
come.
MIR. Cobb replied his client is
stopping temporarily at the Hotel
Statler and that she had lived
with friends at the Roosevelt
Hotel during the several months
since she brought her seperate
maintenance suit against Capt.
Latta Lawrence.
From Elderly Benefactor.
The $500 a month was deposit
ed to her checking account, it was
said. by an elderly friend and
benefactor of Mrs. Latta Law
rence-Dr. Frank Hammer Of
Hollywood, "a. a well-to-do re-
tired dentist.
The court ruled that since there
were no children involved and
Mrs. Latta Lawrence apparently
had been able to live in the best
hotels. the separate maintenance
would not be granted at this time.
Several weeks ago Mr.. Cobb filed
an affidavit with the court in which
DIR. Hammer took exception to
statementsof Capt. Latta Lawrence
that his wife had introduced DR..
Hammer as her uncle as a smoke
screen" to cover UP their living
together.
The affidavit said the "insinua-
ton that my contribution to
Eilene's support was a smoke
screen is utterly false and I further
state that he knows it is false" :"
Talked of Adoption.
DR.. Hammer declared that both
he and his wife, who died in 1946,
had been friends of Mrs. Latta
Lawrence for many years. He said
that he and his wife had talked
of adopting Mrs. Latta Lawrence
but they did not open the subject
with her because they felt the
permission would not be granted
The dentist said he and his wife
contributed money for a home in
Hollywood for Mrs. Latta Law
renee. He added he had financed
the honeymoon of the Latta Law
rences with the full knowledge
of Capt. Latta Lawrence.
DR.. Hammer also declared that
Capt. Latta Lawrence at one time
insisted that he CDR. Hammer)
move into their home because he
did not want him to live alone
following the death of Mrs. Ham
mer.
Mr.. Cobb told the court that
Mrs. Latta Lawrence planned to
live In hotels here only temporar-
lily and wished to return to her
former home in California where
she believed living expenses would
be cheaper.
The judge remarked that he
doubted If anybody could live at
the Hotel Statler for less than
SIS a day,

EsfIN0S uSE FI'DS TOP MERcHANDISE:
 TRADE; NO CASH

Nest Arctic and Interior Alaska Natives see very little or no cash rscney. according to Bob Druxman, Juneau public relations counsel who recently made an inspection of northern villages for the Alaska Native Service.
 He exclaimed that Eskimos and Interior Indians exchange their furs. fish CT other native products for merchandise at their local trading pest or cooperative store. n. some cases. where there are large white settlements, nearby can- reries CT government projects, they ao earn cash money in various la boring capacities but this is not widespread.
 Point Barrow, he said, might be used as an example of where Ma lives get mostly cash because they ire employed on the nearby U. 5. Navy oil exploration project. Point Hope, he declared, would be an ex- ample of the ether extreme, as, with one of two exceptions, there is no opportunity at that village to earn cash money.
