District Attorney David J. Fanning ‘characterizes the situa- tion as “rotten’ For 15 years past the Bradford county court has granted an aver- age of 225 divorces annually and investigations indicate that of this number more than 75 per cent, or about 2,532 have been residents of other states, principally New York, who illegally claimed residence in Pennsylvania. The situation came to a head when Judge Maxwell discovered that a resident of Clinton, N. Y¥., by illegally claiming Scranton, Pa., as his place of residence, obtained a divorce from his wife, inmate of a| Utica, N. ¥., sanitarium, who had not been advised of the contemplated sult. He entered a rule to set aside the decree and directed District At- torney Fanning to’ probe this and other recent divorces. Thus far some remarkable conditions have been revealed. Advertised for Prospects. It is declared that certain lawyers have inserted advertisements In New. York state papers, offering to obtain divorces “without publicity and with- out detention from home or busi- ness,” Others employed “runners” to interview this class of “pros- pects.” If the client was willing to pay the price, then hig attorney placed a suitcase filled with books or bricks In the home of a profes- sional witness in either Sayre, Pa., or Canton, Pa. Twelve months later the suit was filed. Under this system service of dl vorce papers is secured by “publl- cation,’ the notice being Inserted in a small Bradford county weekly, and the cause for divorce noted as “desertion” or ‘incompatibility of temperament.” When the case is Usted for trial the attorney petitions the court for a “master,” citing that because Sayre or Canton are far re- moved from the county seat, with poor train service, the plaintiff must leave his place of employment too long if required to appear in person at the courthouse and await his| Over one hundred thousand people have thronged Ajax salesrooms tn 150 cities throughout the country t¢ view initial showings of the new Nash-bullt car.

Ingham, prom- inent member of the bar, declares that the present condition has been aggravated by the fact that New Yorkers can obtain a divorce only upon the ground of adultery, and urges a uniform law less rigid than that of New York and more strict than that of Pennsylvania, while Rey, A., J.
