COMMON LAW MARRIAGES NOT
RECOGNIZED IN OUR STATE


RECOGNIZED IN OUR STATE
Although not married in the usual
ceremony, John and Mary have lived
together as man and wife for some
years and are known as Mr.. and
Mrs. Smith. Is their marriage,
known as common law marriage
any good legally in Washington. and
will Mrs Smith" have a widows
rights upon Johns deathP
Marriage is contract, and the
validity of contract is governed
by the laws of the state where the
contract is made So a common law
marriage is valid if permitted under
hte laws of the state in which the
marriage is contracted.
Washington, however, does not re-
cognize common law marriage in
to which any two parties attempt
to enter in this state. In Washing
ton, it is necessary that a marriage
be solemnized in the presence of a
minister, priest or judicial officer
and in the presence of at least two
attending witnesses.
Some states, of which Montana is
one, still permit marriages to be en-
tered into under the common law
method, and such marriages con-
tracted in those states are valid.
And not only are they valid where
entered into, but they must also be
recognized as valid in those states
which do not allow them within
their own borders. Thus, if couple
entered into common law marri-
age in Montana and came to the
state of Washington, our state would
recognize the Monatna marriage as
valid.

change the application of the law.)

DO WE WANT SOCIALIZED
AGRICULTURE?

1t seems clear that some of the attacks
made on Secretary of Agriculture Benson
have been malicious and are designed to de-
hberately miS-state his position. 1t has been
intimated that the Secretary really wants to
stop all or practically all government assist
ance to agriculture and let it sink. Actually,
Mr.. Benson is scrupulOusly administering
the price support law, which carries through
1854, and has said again and again that,
whatever farm program may come in the
future, it is vital that the government be
responsible for preventing agricultural dis
tress.
Particularly angry attacks have been
made because of Mr.. Benson's opposition
to direct price supports on livestock This
may have beclOuded the fact that a great
many livestock producers, and responsible
farm organizations as well, support Mr..
BensOn's position in this case. The American
Farm Bureau Federation has said: direct
price supports would unqueStiOnably lead to
government control of the cattle industry and
dangerous step toward the sOcialzatiOn of
American agriculture. Such price supports
would destroy the nations efficient system
Tor the production, processing and diStribu-
ton OF meat which is the envy and marvel
of the world.
Direct price supports when applied to
nogS In World War II resulted in dismal
failure. The evidence is clear that markets
were completely disrupted. -

BABSON DISCUSSES AIR CONDITIONING

New York City, December II.
VIII you take few minutes and
discuss with your family what
your community would be today if
there were no automobiles? What
would be the condition of real
estate, employment, and general
business if we were driving only
horses and buggies?
What We Owe To Automobiles
1t is estimated that 25%6 of the
business today is due to the auto
mobile. Industries, from the max
ing of steel and the refining of
oil to the thousands of factories,
gas stations, automobile agencies

The automobile industry Cespe-
cially the self-starter), plus the
installment credit business, plus
new home building, plus modern
advertising must be thanked for
the high wages, full employment,
and general prosperity of today.
Unfortunately, however, now that
the economic setup accepts the
automobile industry as here to
stay, some other new industry
must come along to keep the
prosperity ball rolling.

Full Dress For Food
The time of protest is at hand"
says J. George Frederick, noted
author and president of the Gourmet
Society, before we are reduced to
eating with our fingers"
Having devoted his life to raising
culinary standards in the United
States, Mr.. Frederick is now cam
paigning against shabby linen,
Clipped china and mismatched,
worn silver in public dining places.
The widespread carelessness of
restaurant people in the matter of
table-settings is our own fault, he
says. We may raise hob if the food
isn't right, but very few of us will
complain when we are given "in-
sulting implements" with which to
attack the most excellent cooking.
By way of encouraging restaurant
operators in this dine-dOn't-eat-
campaign, the Society will present
a series of international awards, the
FIST of which has already been con-
ferred with much fanfare-includ-
ing TV-On the City of Newark,
N. J., for the excellence of the
table-settings at the Newarker
restaurant of the famous airport
Particularly interesting, however
/ is Mr.. Frederick's observation that
small-tOwn restaurants are more
likely to set their tables properly
/ and attractively than those in the
big cities. The reason, he thinks
is because the restaurant man il
the smaller place is feeding people
whom he knows personally, anC
whose good opinion means more tt
him than that of stranger.

radio. New models are coming out
which will look like furniture and
not depend upon an open window.
The demand for them will increase
until every room of most houses and
office buildings will require an
air conditioner. Labor unions are
already calling for air conditioned
factories.
Opportunities For Positions And
Profits
| suppose that most of the models
will be made by a few large COM
panies. Their sales, installation, and
maintenance will, however, give
employment and profit to millions
of people. Amy young man who is
determined to know more than
anyone else in his community about
air conditioning has great
opportunity.
One more thought. We must not
forget the possibilities of solar and
gravity energy-also of atomic
power. Just now the latter is
handicapped because of the limited
supply of uranium. But this will
be only temporary. Uranium or it's
equivalent will be "breeded" or
made partially synthetically. This
could provide cheap power, avail
able everywhere, and revolutiOnize
industry and foreign trade, and per-
haps eliminate war. This is really
our best bet of all. Get into step

ance, however, the internal COM

farm machinery, airplanes, and
even Juniors lawn mower!
Some big new industry must
develop to provide work for the
rapidly growing population and to
take up the slack caused by the
labor-saving machinery which en-
plOyers are installing to offset
labOr's demands for higher wages
and fewer hours. Furthermore,
such is needed to enable the
Federal and State Governments to
reduce taxes, which basically de-
pend upon profits.
Consider Air Conditioning
Looking over the field, l believe
that air conditioning may partly
fill the need. People in the United
States now do not need more
clothes, or more transportation, or
more entertainment. Some do need
more homes and furnishings. But
the majority of families already
have these things. To sell some
thing big to these 10000, 900 families,
the appeal must be made by offering
more comfort.
This makes me bullish on the
air-cOnditioning business. I believe
that, in few years, there will be
more airconditioning units than

On Barren Ground

After three months of deliberatiOn
and suspense, President Eisenhower
delivered his Operation CandOr"
address with suddeness and dra-
matte effect before the General
Assembly of the United Nations
flying directly to New York from the
Big Three conference in Bermuda
for the occasion.
While the Presidents speech con-
tanned a terse reference to the
mounting horror of atomic weapons,
in which, he intimated, we still
hold the quantitive lead; it was
essentially another fervent plea to
the nations of the world to put
into operation, while there is yet
time, a working plan ito strip it's
military casing" from this bound
less atomic force "and adapt it to
the arts of peace" ."
In spite of the tremendous ap-
plause that followed the Presidents
earnest words, applause to which
Russia's Andrei Vishinsky con-
tributed, the Moscow radio required
only "a hours to organize its sneer-
ing commentary on the speech, even
going so far as to declare that
President Eisenhower had threat
ened atomic war.
At the White House. Press Secre-
tary James c. Hagerty read a
statement to the effect that
immediate reactions" do not
necessarily represent the con-

Immediately before adjournment
of the General Assembly, however
Mr.. Vishinsky strongly implied
Russian rejection of the Eisenhower
plan for stOckpiling fashionable
material for peaceful uses. With

THE DEPRECIATION PROBLEM

Modern farming is a business, and the
farmer must deal with most of the financial
problems that are an inescapabIe part of
the operation Of any business enterprise.
One of these is depreciation of machin-
cry. Today good mechanical equipment is

Ihe U. s. Savings Bonds Division of the

vests an amount equal to his annual machin-
cry depreciation costs in the bonds. and
