“4 Upon the Integrity of American Homes .
Depends Our Whole NationalLife
By RT. REV. W. A. GUERRY, Episcopal Bishop South Carolina.
1‘— w
The startling statement that onetwenticth of all marriages in the
United States end in divorce is of itself sufficient to arouse every earnest
man and woman to the seriousness of the situation that: confronts us.
Upon the integrity and purity of the American home depends the
whole superstructure of our national life. Where the home is undermined
and destroyed and children cas‘t adrift by a selfish and self-centered indi-
vidualism, there is an end of all social and moral restraint.
To combat the growing evil of divorce in this country a group of pub-
lic-spirited men and women have been trying to. get through congress a
uniform divorce law. What is known as the Edmonds bill aims to accom-
plish this end. The purpose of this bill is to limit the grounds of divorce.
One difficulty in the way of a wide-spread publicity and agitation in
or of more stringent divorce laws grows out of the fact that the divorce
evil has become universal. Another trouble is that most people who are
seeking divorce are not satisfied with a legal separation. The underlying
purpose of it all is too of ten the intention of marrying again as soon as the
divorce has been granted.
