Divorces Suggested : By Judge Bingham " . , t j , Salem, June! 2L Deficiencies in Ore gon's divorce laws were pointed out by Judge George G. Bingham of the Marion county circuit court before members. of the Salem Commercial club at their weekly luncheon Monday noon. The es tablishment of an intermediary court on ths plan of the Portland court of do mestic relations, where couples In diffi culty could go for i advise, was ' urged by Judge Bingham as a cure for a part of Oregon's . divorce, problem. He also urged that a period of 30 days be re quired to lapse between the filing of a divorce complaint and the granting of a decree, on the theory that such a delay ' would in many Instances make for re conciliation. ' i ' Judge Bingham alao 1 advocated a de lay of 30 days between the Issuance of a marriage license and the performance of the marriage ceremony as a cure for . hasty marriages. Six out of every id delinquent chil dren come f 7rom homes that have been torn asunder through divorce and a large number of criminals come from hemes in which there is domestic dis cord, he said. Dance Halls and pool rooms were also scored by the judge as purveyors of social evils. He pointed out numerous Instances coming to his attention as a jurist in which dance hall acquaintances have led to hasty marriages and then to Just as hasty a divorce.
