The Duenos Aires newspaper refer to Montevideo as a "matrimonial safe ty valve" and drily observe that up-to- date divorce legislation has been ren dered unnecessary in Argentina by the enterprise of the Uruguayan law givers. According to La Razon of Buenos Aires, the Montevideans (possibly lna lit of repentance for having dissolved so many Argentine unions) are now endeavoring to hold the balance even by making marriage an easy and expe ditious matter in their capital.
