Chautauqua, N. Y., June 21.
The runaway flapper marriages are
marked for death by representatives
of two million American women as
sembled here at the convention of
the federation of women's clubs.
Launching a drive for reform of
divorce and marriage laws, the con
vention leaders advocate:
1 Repeal of all 6tate marriage
and divorce statutes.
2 Passing of a federal law, gen
eral in its application.
This movement was started after
futile efforts to induce various states
to pass uniform laws were made.
Mrs. Genevieve Parkhurst, writer
on women's subjects, is here repre
senting supporters of the movement.
The proposed law which will be
presented to congress for action con
tains the following provisions:
No girl under eighteen or boy
under twenty-one can marry without
their parent's consent or that of
their guardian. Banns announcing
the intended marriage must be pub
lished two weeks before the cere
mony. Physicians' certificates as to
the mental and physical fitness of
both parties to the marriage must
be shown when the license is issued.
Divorces are to be allowed for
proved physical or mental cruelty,
desertion for a period of, one year or
more, proved infidelity and habitual
drunkenness.
Only interlocutory decrees made
final after lapse of one year, are to
be granted.
Divorce cases would be heard be
hind closed doors and the testimony
never made public.
The mother would always be given
the custody of the children unless
proved unfit to take care of them.
The Home of the Soul
In olden tlms. it was believed
that the eeat of the soul was the
stomach, most likely for the reason
that a man is never so completely
used up as when his stomach Is out
of order. For the cure of ordinary
stomach troubles, there is nothing
quite so prompt and satisfactory it

for failing to act against the league
under the corrupt practices act. j -
Mr. Tinkham's attack brought
from Representative Gallivan, demo
crat, Massachusetts, criticism of
Prohibition Commissioner Haynes for
the latter's stand regarding sale of
liquor on American ships at sea. In
refusing to act against such ships,
Mr. Gallivan declared, Mr. Haynes
made himself "particep criminis." j
Referring to the published reports
that representatives from eleven
states attending an anti-saloon
league meeting at Milwaukee had
promised their aid to Representative
Volstead of the Seventh Minnesota
district, and characterizing it as
"legislative bribery," Mr. Tinkham
said:
"Here again we have the outrage-;
about which I have
nrotested. Here we have the anti-
