divorce structure.
How lt WORKS
HERE is Judge Desmond's de-
scription of the average annul-
ment proceeding: "A typical case
is something like this. A wife
brings an annulment action on
the ground of fraud; her hus-
band, who is as tired of the mar
riage as she is, does not defend.
The wife appears in court and
testifies that before the marriage
her husband. told her that he
owned considerable property or
had considerable money in the
bank, or that he had a good edu-
cation or a fine war record, or
that he was an American citizen,
or that he had a good reputation
and was a sober, Woodworking
man.
"She testifes further that these
statements of her intended
spouse led her to agree to marry
him and that she did not find out
their falsity until after marriage.
She may or may not produce
some willing witness to corrobo-
rate these things and the annul-
ment is granted"
Elaborate Perjury
LET no one mistake the fact"
says Richard H. Wells, who is
Chairman of the New York Bar
Associations Special Committee
on the Improvement of the
Divorce Laws, that our strict
divorce laws and those of some
other strict states do not prevent
divorce. 1t is no longer necessary
for New Workers to 60 through
the elaborate perjury of being
caught in a hotel room with a
professional third party in
order to get an adultery decree.
Why should they bother, when
annulments are so quick and
easy?"
The record books certainly
support MIR. Wells. An annulment
has been granted to a wife who
claimed she had married because
her husband had assured her

THE NEW ANNULMENT RACKET
Continued from page seoen

Vi dIililltleLlS eXCeeQS the num-
Der of divorces, and in the state
as a whole annulments constitute
over one-third of all marriage
dissolutions. 1t is easy to see why.
New York is the toughest divorce
state in the country. recognizing
only adultery as grounds for
granting a decree. California
grants divorces readily, but the
decree does not become final for
one year. during which time the
parties cannot remarry.
Charles S. Desmond, an Asso-
ciate Judge of New York's high
est court, has said: ''For one
with sufficiently elastic con-
science, it is as easy to get ain
annulment in New York as a
divorce anywhere in the
United States" Desmond
notes that more than $50 diff
ferent grounds have been recog-
nized by the New York Supreme
Court as a basis for annulment
actions.
Original Use
ANNuLMENr was originally in
tended to be used in the law
only to dissolve marriages in
special situations where the mar
riage itself was defective. If the
parties are not of age, and
especially where they have not
yet lived together, if one of the
parties was too drunk to know
what he or she was doing, if
the marriage license was fraud
ulently obtained - these are
legitimate grounds for annul-
ment.
But when the law permit
ted annulment for ''fraud."
it did not envision the land
slide of himsy reasons which
has cascaded under that
heading. 1t meant only the kind
of serious fraud that goes to the
very heart of marriage, as, for
example, when a husband sub
mits a negative blood-test report
but actually has syphilis.
Within recent years, however,
lawyers discovered that they
had failed to take advantage of
this old friend that had been on
the books for a long time. They
are now more than making up

.29th Division Draws
Praise From Bradley
by The Assoeiaied Press

NEW YORK. June 19.-Gen.
Bradley says he is "sorry" if 2sth
Division veterans "feel sighted
by his book of war memories.
He adds that the 29th was IAN
excellent division" and did "a
wonderful job"
Maryland veterans of the 29th
Division Association said Sunday
in Baltimore that their unit was
ignored in Gen. Bradley's book,
"A Soldiers Story" They asked
for a public explanation.
Last night over the Columbia
Broadcasting System. Gen. Brad
ley said: ~
This (the book is primarily
a story Of what went on in the
higher command headquarters and
there just wasn't space to cover
the exploits of the various divi-
sions that fought under my COM
mand.
las matter of fact, at one
time there were As divisions in my
group of armies, and it's up to
the divisions, really, to write those
division histories"
Gen. Bradley pointed out to a
reporter after the broadcast that
the 29th was mentioned in his
book for its role on the Normandy
beachhead in France.
