Virginia Republicans
10 Name Delegates on
old Districiing Setup
by N. A..oeio,.d Pres.

LYNCEIBURG, Va. Mar. 22.-
The Virginia Republican State
Central Committee decided today
to choose delegates to the q. o. r
National Convention ON the bash
OF the States present nine con-
gressional districts.
In so doing, the committee by
passed the possibility of electine
delegates from the realigned nine
districts and a new 10th district
next to Washington, that will be
created June 28.
Each district. except the 9Th.
will elect their allotted delegates
in convention. The elections will
take place before the State Re-
publican Convention in Roanoke
May 81.
In the area of the present 9th
district. two separate conventions
will be held-one for Arlington,
Alexandria, Fairfax and Falls
Church which will become the
new 10th district, and the other
for the remainder Of the old 9Th.
To Nominate 2 Delegates.
Each of these conventions will
nominate two delegates to the ma
tional convention, with the under
standing that the State Conven-
ton will make them delegates-at-
large in addition to the four that
are usually chosen.
Thus the Virginia q. o. p. will
all its quota Of 23 delegates to Chi
cago in time to meet the June 2
deadline by national party rules.
The plan was adopted after two
hours of debate. The plans gen.
eral outlines were first suggested
by National Committeeman Cur
tbs M. Dozier, Of Richmond, and
State Finance Chairman Fred
McWane. Of Lynchburg. =
Committee members rejected a
proposal by State Senator Ted
Dalton, Of Radford. to have the
District conventions operate and
choose delegates on the basis of
the 10 new districts.
Paulson Supports Dalton.
Senator Dalton had the support
of Lester Parsons Of Norfolk and
Nathan Paulson of Alexandria.
Maj. Henry A. Wise Of Abe
marie, former National Commit
teennan, and other advocates Of the
ultimately approved plan said the
national party rules had the effect
of party law, and that this law
made it impossible to operate on
the 10-district basis until the new
districts actually become law June
%. This would be too late to quail
ify and certify delegates to the
National Convention, they con-
tended.
No moves in behalf Of any Re-
publican presidential candidates
were noted. nor was there any evi-
dence Of intra-party strife that
develop later over elections Of a
State @. o. p. chairman and Ma
tional Committeeman for four

Divorce Action Upheld
in Prince GEORGES
By the Associoted press

ANNAPOLIS, Mar. GA ruling
OF Prince Georges County Circuit
Court which dismissed Nathan F..
Henderson's bill Of complaint for
an annulment and awarded his
wife partial divorce has been up
held by the court Of appeals.
Mr.. Henderson contended he
was not legally married to Mrs.
Mamie I. Henderson when they
went through" a ceremony in
Iowa on November 6, 1943.
He said Mrs. Henderson was
incapable of marriage because a
previous divorce from F. German
Hatcher, jr., in Virginia on Sep
tember 27. 1943. did mot become
final until six months later. He
claimed he suffered resultant
humiliation and embarrassment. /"
Soon after the ceremony, Mr..
Henderson was shipped overseas
with the Armed Forces. When he
returned in 1945, the couple lived
lin Washington for a year, then
moved to Cheverly.
The appellate court said. There
can be no rational conclusion
other than that the parties. who
lived together as husband and
wife in Washington. gave rise to
10 common-law marriage under
the law Of the District Of Column
Ibia."
While common-law marriages
are not valid in Maryland, this
one must be accepted. the court
said.
In the divorce proceedings, Mrs
Henderson contended she was
beaten by her husband on July
l16, 1850, and forced to enter .
hospital.

expected to take effect early in

negotiations now under way be-
tween five utilities and workers

statutes will repeal and replace
