MOTHER-IN-LAW
ENDS FREE LOVE
LAW IN HUNGARY
Cabinet, Member Explains
"Communization" to Wife
and Mother, But Kills Law
After Storm Breaks.
Budapest, April 30. -(Correspondence
of the Associated Press). It
was due to a family quarrel that
Hungary escaped having its women
"communized" after the fashion "in
the Russian "republic" of Saratoff,
rather thin to the abhorrence of
Bela Kun to the scheme as the
latter afterwards stated.
The law to communize women was
actually framed and in the printers
hands, ready for publication when
Herr Weltner, one of the cabinet
of bright young men who are now
ruling the fate of the former king
dom, went home for supper. During
the meal he told his wife and his
mother-in-law in glowing terms
about the project reforms.
"What are you doing for women?"
they asked. x
Explain! New Law.
Weltner then explained thatsjn
future women would be free too;
that they would be permitted to
choose their husbands and dis
card them if they : liked by
the simple process of paying
a few cents for a legal paper
declaring their "unfitness" for mar
ried life. Further conversation .de
veloped the fact that the new law
also gave husbands the same right;
that children might be turned over to
the care of the state so that both
husband and wife would get rid of
the duties and responsibilities of
rearing their offsprings,
"Do you mean to tell me that you
can get rid of me from one day to
another and marry the next day if
you like?" demanded young Frau
Weltner.
"That's how the law stands," re
plied the husband.
The Lay Dies.
"Then the storm broke. Both
wife and mother-in-law began to
scream and a frenzied scene ensued,
the upshot of which was that the
women demanded that Weltner
should ffet the law stooped or they
would leave him at once and would,
moreover, get all the wives, mothers
and mothers-in-law ot all the min
isters to do the same.
Weltner in the interest of his
home comfort and peace eventually
promised to do his bestnd use his
influence with his fellow members
throuah his oaoer. the People's
Voice, to get the law repealed. lie
had a conversation with Bela Kun
and the other ministers and then
called up the printers, telling them
tnat no proois nceucu 10 w yuucu
from the forms where the law lay.
He also ordered that 'the type
should be melted up and the copy
destroyed.
( It was thus that' the law died. .
