Briton Advocates
Easier Divorce
Laws for U. S.

British divorces have in
creased 40-fold in the last so
years but this doesn't repre-
sent any increase in marital
unhappiness. according to a
British authority.
THE increase simply means
that what so years ago was the
privilege of the rich is now
the right of ALL" says Stephen
Keleny of London. vice chair
man Of the Divorce Law Re-
form Union.
The United States should
consider the proposed British
plan for dissolving a marriage
when it appears to the court
that there is no prospect for
reconciliation. he said in a
speech yesterday before the
American Bar Association.
An American lawyer dis
agreed.
If the marriage is sick. it
should be treated, but there
should be no surgery unless
all possible treatments have
been explored. said Harry x.
Cole of Chicago. chairman of
an ABA divorce procedure COM
mittee.
Mr.. Cole said there is a
pressing need for a uniform
divorce law throughout the Ma
tion. The laws now differ so
much that a party who remar-
ries after getting a divorce in
one State may be prosecuted
for bigamy in another, he de-
clared.

The idea that the free world

and Russia is based ON the
increasing capabilities of the
two countries to destroy each

an expanding nuclear club
might trigger a nuclear war.

Senator Kennedy said THE

we cannot be pressed, by
blackmail or force, to accept
the transfer of territories and

"In the 1960s, it is our

constitute a real test of our
survival. In this age respon-

Republican incumbent he will

Pvt. Marvin Owens was or

Army Secretary Brucker.
Pvt. Owens, an almost COM

able to notify him at once.
They previously had denied
his requests for an early dis

Pvt. Owens, who had entered
the service in November, 1858,
for two years then took his case
to Representative Green, Dem
ocrat of Oregon.
She appealed to Representa-

Oregon, a 15-year congress

The Londoner said it was
tempting, but illogical, to link

added that abnormal children

BY CARL IRVING
Star Stan Writer

The Nation has gone too far
in ignoring the harmful influ-
ences of crime publicity in the
newspapers and on television,
the Los Angeles District Attor-
ney contended today.
Even if juvenile and adult
crime cannot be proved to be
inspired by lurid stories or
shows, the pendulum appar-
emily has swung too far, Will
liam B. McKeSson told an
American Bar Association GRIM
inal law session in the Willard
Hotel.
Mr.. McKesson wondered
whether the first murder trial
of DR.. R. Bernard Finch and
Carole Tregoff was not a
frightening example of how
news media can place a court
room in the bright glare Of
publicity.
That trial, conducted in his
jurisdiction, brought corre-
spondents from eight foreign
countries, columnists, radio and
televiSion. .
Avalanche of Mail
II received an avalanche of
mail, and verbal complaints met
me every place I went by those
who were very much displeased
that all of the details of the
illicit relationship between the
two defendants and the violent
death of Mrs. Finch were then
so widely publicized and so
glamorously detailed" he said.
Mr.. McKesson questioned
whether television fosters ag-
gressivenesS. violence and il
legal activity.
Psychologists seem to agree
that a child tends to be influ-
enced to some extent by every
experience of his life. If this
be true, then what must be the
effect on children when they

Engineers say the Reyran for
the moment presents an al
most insoluble problem. Since
a geological fault in the rock
structure caused the Mall
passet Dam to give way, build
ing another dam to control the
river was out of the question.
A plan to divert the river
into a new bed farther away
from town has not begun to
be realized and once under
taken will require 18 months to
finish.
Until then, engineers admit,
there is nothing to prevent the
Reyran River from inundating
the town whenever there is a
heavy rain.
