D. T.. Bar Unit Backs
Proposal for Counsel
On Marital Affairs

A District Bar Association COM
mittee has indorsed, by a vote OF
8 to l, a District Court Judges
plan to set up a marital affairs
counsel with broad powers to
handle alimony and investigate
divorce cases.
The action was taken on the
controversial proposal yesterday
by the bar groups committee or
relations with the Domestic Re-
lations Commissioner.
Chairman William F. McDon-
nell said a report to the associa-
tion's board of directors will be
drawn up as soon as possible. A
membership vote probably will be
required. he said. for final action
| by the association.
Minority Report Planned.
Attorney Arthur j. Hilland, who
voted against the Endorsement
said he will file a minority report
strongly opposing the plan.
Chief Judge Bolitha j. Laws
who asked the bar group for an
opinion, has said he hopes Con-
gress next year will provide money
for the new Office, which would
replace the limited functions of
the courts present Domestic Re.
lations Commissioner.
The proposed counsel would be
able to subpoena witnesses, take
testimony under oath, collect and
disburse all alimony payments
and take action against persons
delinquent in alimony payments.
His main function would be to
make reports to the court, to
speed handling of cases and fur
nish judges with more accurate
information.
Explains Objection.
Mr.. Hilland said his principal
objection was that the PROPOSAL
docs mot get to the root of the
real problem" in divorce cases.
The problem he said, is the
"scandalous delay" in hearing the
cases. particularly those to grant
temporary alimony. Result of the
delay. he declared. is hardship
during months when no alimony
award has been made.
He proposed, instead, that the
court assign 1.-TWO of three judges
to a separate division which
would deal exclusively with do
mestic relations matters. The bar
committee already had approved
a resolution calling for such a
separate division, to give domestic
cases more attention.
John Alexander, who submitted
this resolution at an earlier meet
ing. said more than half the civil
court cases during the last nine
years have dealt with domestic
relations, excluding custody cases.
Mr.. Alexander said he feels,
however, the delay regarding
temporary alimony hearings is a
separate problem from the judges
proposal. He strongly supported
the marital affairs counsel plan
but said some changes should be
made in tentative bill drawn
up by Judge Edward A. Tamm.

.Franco-Brifish Friendship
Seen Barred by Gibraltar
BY the Associated Press

MADRID, Nov. 27.-A close ad-

Franco said yesterday that Spain
never will consider Great Britain
a friendly nation as long as Gil
braltar remains in British hands
Capt. Luis Carrero Blanco, un-

in an editorial in Arriba, organ

commenting on the inauguration
of the legislature in Gibraltar
which has been a British posses
sion since 1713.
Capt. Carrero Blanco, a former
chief of naval operations, de-
clared that possession of Gibral-

weapons now in use. He said the
strait now is controlled by Spain s
