BY PHIL YEAGER
and JOHN STARK

Illinois. perhaps taking its cue
from modern trends in labor
legislation, is pioneering a new
concept in divorce law which
may radically reduce divorces.
Operating on the theory that
o big percentage of broken mar
riages could be saved by avoid
ing the premature publicity
brought on by hastily filed COM
plants, Illinois has enacted a
60-day cooling off" statute.
Under this law actions for divorce
and separate maintenance are
kept of the court docket Except
IN emergency cases. for two
months while reconciliation eff
forts are made.
Just how the law will actually
work out remains to be seen. It
has not yet been put to a con-
elusive test.
However, recent experiments
along this line conducted by in
dividual judges have repeatedly
turned out well.
Chicago Circuit Court Judge
Julius H. Miner, who helped
work for the Illinois law, says
that during a three-month ex-
pertinent conducted by his court
SO reconciliations were effected
out of IS reconciliation efforts.
These cases. Judge Miner pointed
out. involved a total of 113
children.
Similar experiments conducted
by Superior Court Judge Louis
H. Burke of Los Angeles are
said to have been effective in
savings 500 out of slightly over
1000 marriages about to GO on
the rocks. These cases involved
over 1000 children.
If a new plan will conciliate
only five disordant couples and
save five families out of a hun
dred." writes Judge Miner in a
recent issue of the American
Bar Association Journal. 'it will
need no further justification.
mo claim can be made that
the new law is a solution for the
problem of divorce. The basic
human and social maladiust-
ments underlying the problem
cannot be eliminated by the en-
actment of rules and laws. /. !
But a conservative appraisal of
past experience shows that at
least one third of all divorces
could have been prevented had
the parties been constrained to
avoid undue haste and had there
been available a friendly court
counselor to hear and discuss
the grievances before they were
publicized."
Eight years of effort. three
statutes-one of which was
ignored by the courts and an
other declared unconstitutional
and three State supreme court
