Jurist Says Social Structure ard
Not Court Procedure Is to
Blame for Increase in Divorce.
'"Marry fn riant, and repent at lel
ur," Is a Hnylnjr' almost, as oM as
marr)Ke ltIf, but on which under
prvwwit conditions of social structure
seems about to be chanrte to "Marry I
In haste and repent In half that time."
'.Through the operation of the dlvoree
laws, the ease of untying- the matri
monial knot Is accelerated tremendously
and the records of Multnomah county
bear volumes of testimony of the evil.
Purine the first five month's of 1918.
415 suits for dlvproe were filed In thtf
county clerk's office. January there
were n, In February 70, March 77. April
70 and June 94. Of course not all of
theee parties were granted decrees f
separation, many complainants were re
conciled and many more were dismissed
for failure to show sufficient grounds
for divorce.
State Mnt Be Represented
The legislature of 1862 passed a law
on divorces which makes the stajle a
party defendent to every suit for the pur
pose of (tlvlnsr the district attorney an
opportunity of Investigating each case
and satisfying himself as to the merits of
the case and for the purpose of prevent
ing collusion, bad faith and other
wroriRS. But of recent years cases of
this character have been coming In so
fast that It U Impossible to make an
Investigation of each case, but no suit
for djvorce Is tried even now without
the appearance of an attorney for the
state who carefully scrutinizes the plead
ings, examines the witnesses and other
wise watches for Irregularities In the
trials. If for any reason, the attorney
sees cause, he enters an objection to
the granting of a decree.
Furthermore under present methods
of handling divorce suits they are given
the preference over other suits In this
manner. Other suits when filed are
placed upon the court calender In order
of filing, but because of the great num
ber of divorce cases and because the
placing of them on the regular calender
would oaiise a congestion in the' trial
of all cases in the Circuit courts, the di
vorce suits are placed upon a separate
calender which takes precedence over
other matters and are heard and settled
much sooner.
Suit Mmt Take Their Ts.nl
Kor the purpose for relieving this con
gestion and for the further purpose of
giving the -district attorney's office time
for investigating -each case, a new ruling
will be ordered beginning with Septem
V er 1 by Presiding Judge Tucker of the
Multnomah Circuit courts.
This order will be that all divorce suits
must be placed upon the regular calender
In thier regular order! The result of
this ruling will be that people seeking
divorces will haye to wait rhonths in
etetid of days, as under the present
system.
This Is a matter which Judge Tucker
has had under consideration for many
weeks and concerning which he has ad
vised seriously with , other judges on
the circuit bench. When asked what
was the cause for so many divorces,
Judge Tucker said this morning, "The
cause is much deeper than court pro
ceedure. It lies at the heart of our
social structure. And that Is where the
remedy lies also. A generation ago a
divorced man or woman were in no
small measure looked upon1 as disgraced,
while today there 'Is little cfr no dis
grace attached to it.

ed several papers in the eastern part of
the United States, is thoroughly fa
miliar with this work, and under his
direction the Review has grown to a

One of the most interesting features
of the Review is a list of teachers, who
have been members of the high school
faculty, dating back to 1888.
An article contributed by W. Q. trow
ley, and entitled "The New Steel Ship
Plant," occupies a prominent space in
one issue of the Review.
All branches of military service are
represented by Vancouver high school
boys. In the February issue, which has
an exceptionally artistic covering, is a
list of all .who are now In the service,
who at one time attended the high school
