Hundreds of Valuable Items Fingerprints for Marriage Sought San Francisco Ofl An Iowa attorney suggested Tuesday that fingerprints be required on mar riage license applications to help Jaw enforcement agencies track down runaway husbands and bigamists. ' Keith Mossman, county attor ney at Vinton, Iowa, told the National Association' of County and prosecuting Attorneys he could not guess how much money this would save taxpayers who now have to support abandoned wives and children but that it would be "in the millions." Mossman, who conducted a six month's study of the problem, said a central marriage bureau could be operated somewhat like blood tests. Applicants would have to wait about five days while their fingerprints were cleared through the bureau. The bureau would merely noti fy the state where the license application was made that the applicants had or had not been married and where, Mossman said. It would be up to the state to decide whether or not to issue the license. Mossman added that since there are three million marriages a year in the United States, money, operational techniques and the participation of all states were technical problems that would have to be solved. However, the central marriage bureau plan at least would of fer a step toward solution of the abandoned children problem, he said. Delegates to the eighth annual I convention unanimously agreed with Mossman and said it would continue to see what could be done about it.
