‘J. B. Mason. of Derby. The Welcome

van. The report..-of the council writ-
ten by Miss Mabel I. Jenkins, of Will

Taylor, of Willimantlc. The report. on
' uniform divorce prepared by Mrs.
' Charrie A. Capen. the chairman, was
. W. ll. Phipps, of Water
bury. .
The committee in its report said:
“There seems to be a well-founded
belief among those who have spent
'time and thought in investigation, that
the great and constantly increasing
number of divorces in our country is
due to the lack of a divorce law uni-
form throughout the nation. This can
only be accomplished by the states, as
. no federal divorce law is feasible, the
government having jurisdiction only
‘ over the District of Columbia and the
territories. and lu-order to extend that
power a constitutional amendment
“would be a necessary prerequisite.
This‘is almost impossible to secure,
there being nearly as many minds on
be subject as individuals. The ma-
jority opinion, however, concur that
the law should be sufficiently uniform
to prevent annulment of the marriage
no for slight cause, simply by change
of residence to another state."
Reference was made in the report. to
the recent Congress of Commission-
erp to consider uniformity in divorce
legislation. and of the resolutions
opted. Continuing the report says:
The laws of the-states vary to so
,. f. I degree that' a. man may have

for. one your, thus giving opportunity
for reconciliation, when the judgment
can be set aside.
“The importance to women of good
divorce laws is unquestionable. A
member of our executive board cou-
suiting at one time with Col. William
B. Wooster, of Derby, in regard to the
law of ‘equal guardianship,‘ received
this reply to her questions: ‘Why do
you bother with that? it is far more
necessary to get a law which will pre-
vent a drunken, lazy or brutal hus-
band from having a right to his wife's
home and wages.‘ This shows that a
itringeut divorce law would right oili-
er wrongs.
“The following being part of a let-
:si' from Mr. Talcott Russell, of New
Haven. gives reasons for the judicial
separation being excluded from the
Connecticut law and also information
)ll other poliits. Mr. Russell was one
)f the. commissioners at the divorce
law congress:
"The principal cause under which
livorces are granted liy the western

“There are probably a low married

no such, they would probably lit

”it is obviously a fraud upon the

licr sufficient allowance to keep up her
;ocial position according to her ideas.
which would doubtless cause grievous
nental suffering to some people, and
.heii come back to New York with all
;he right and privileges of a single
voman.
“it is this kind of migratory divorce
which the congress aimed to stop. 1
in not think that the causes of divorce
let down in the Connecticut statutes
iced much change. We do need, I
think, safeguards against hasty or in-
:onsidcrate action of the court. as
:iine cures a good many evils. If it
took a your instead of from three
weeks to three months to get, a di-
Iorce, a good many people would make

“Another remedy which has been
recommended by the congress is what
s called judicial separation; that. is

villi permission for either party to up
fly to have the decree set. aside, in-
;tead of granting an absolute divorct
with freedom to both parties to re
narry.
“Such separation would, it is believ-
‘d, frequently result In a settlement

.vithout absolute divorce.
“Substantially, all the civilized coun
'rlcs and most of the states of tho.
.‘nion recognize the institution of in-
iicial separation, either permanent or
eniporary.
“Our Puritan forefathers in Con»
icciicul. held very stern and rigid
views concerning the duty of wives
iiid regarded unmarried people as a
iaiigerous class, particularly unmar
ricd men. They were made subject
.0 burdensome restrictions. Married
people. who lived separated from one
mother were regarded almost as crim-
nals. The authorities in many cases
insisted upon banishment.
“The modern view is broader. While
‘iomestic duties must absorb the at-
tention ol’ the vast majority of women
ind should never be looked upon with
iversion and contempt. we allow and
expect. that many Women will indulge
,n other activities.
“The primitive Connecticut view
was that if the women were not mar-
ried they ought to be married as soon
is possible. If for any reason they
found it impossible to live comfort-
‘ibly with their husbands, they should
be at once divorced and immediately
married to somebody that they could
live with. Therefore they rejected the
institution of judicial separation from
bed and board as contrary to the in-
terest of the state, as tending to lin-
morality.. ‘
"i think the prejudice against ju-
dicial separation is a relic of the old
antiquated feeling."
in conclusion the report says:
"it is one of the curios of the ‘im‘
niiitable law,‘ that while Mr. Russell
cousiders‘this a relic of the Puritans,
tho third commissioner. in the state
report of the Philadelphia Congress,
puts himself on record as against di-
vorce from bed and bodrd. Are there
yet Puritans amongst us? They are
still taking notes." ,
