Cupid flourishes only in boom periods. He 1s mare active during war days thhn in days of prosperity, although the all-time marriage peak was reached in"this country in 1929. But the pros- perity period was short lived, while Cupid ran amuck during the days of 1917 and 1919. Money Affects Divorces, Divorces also flourish when money | flows, the records show. A total of 17,824 less decrees were granted in 1931 than in 1929. With thre: years of de- pression completed, no longer are those who married in haste repenting before the divorce court bar, but persons with years of expemence in matrimony be- hind them gre leading the way into the | important. divorce courts. | chiefly The bureau said that in 1931 the largest number of divorces was granted to those wed 10 to 14 years. In that group there were 29,246, and the next largest totals. were found:among those who walked down the aisle 20 or more years ago. Fewer Newlywed Divorces. The newlyweds, those married less than a year, ranked at the bottom, with only 7452 of that class ending their relationship in court. But in the one-year group there were 13,405 di- vorces and even more, 14,862, among those married two years. Evidence that the first few years may be the most quarrelsome was seen in the drop to 7,700 divorces for the nine-year group. ‘The records show that husba: ob- | tained 49,591 of the divorces and wives 132,612.

The overwhelming trend in radio! toward stage comedians and other theoretical luminaries has introduced a new problem for program makers— that of keep! off the air the risque jokes and ler-line stories borrcwed from the stage and screen. It is now being dealt with by rather drastic blue- penciling of continuities. . Radic always has claimed that it is the cleanest form of entertainment. Programs have been built, by the more important stations at least, to appeal to the entire family and rigid censor- shin of programs has been maintained. » performer, accustomed FOREIGN COMPETITION WRECKS | U. S. WOOD PULP INDUSTRY | Imports Can Be Delivered From Abroad at ' Price Below C The following articTe is one of a series showing how industrial conditions in for- eign _countries affect American workmen, Merwin H. Browne. the writer, is & mem- ber of the Washington Bureau of the { Buffalo Evening News. By MERWIN H. BROWNE. Forelgn manufacturers of woodpulp in depreclated currency countries not only are playing havoe with the Ameri~ can industry through their imports to this country, and causing widespread unemployment in at least three related | industries, but because the American tually are recelving a bonus on every | shipload landed at an American port. From the North, Mid-West and even industry is in the infant stage, comes a despairing cry, from the farmers, whose wood cuttings are decreased by the forelgn imports; from the mill workers, who are actually thrown out of employment through use in_the United States of the foreign pulp; from miners of sulphur, limestone and coal whose products are not_ required; and from the railroads, which lose the transportation of these articles when foreign woodpulp is landed at United States ports in foreign boats. ‘Wood pulp 15 divided into three gen- eral classes: Ground wood, used prin- cipally in the production of newsp;gt. er; ulp, employed in paper; sulphate pulp, Pl e ducing wrapping paper; and sul) pulp, from which printing paper, tissue paper, and some of the higher grades of wrapping paper are produced. Of | the three, the last named is the most The importations are from the debased currency countries of Finland, Norway, Sweden and Canada. Sell Below U. S. Cost. The Federal Government has been told by the domestic wood pulp indus- try that bleached sulphite pulps of good quality sold at $74 a ton at the beginning of 1930, at $60 at the end of 1930, and at $50 at the time Eng- land went off the gold standard. The cost of bleaching is usually figured at $12 a ton, which fixes the price of unbleached sulphite at $38 a ton. At the present time, foreign producers are offering unbleached sulphite pulp, de- livered in Wisconsin, at less than $30 a ton, and the bleached product at under $45 a ton. The bare cost of manufacturing bleached sulphite pulp in American mills is given at $55 a ton, and un- bleached sulphite at $43 a ton, despite the fact that wages, salaries and every reducible overhead expense have been cut as far as possible. The price of pulpwood has been slashed until it is generally admitted that the farmers and other producers are left with no profit at all, and, in many cases, prac- tically nothing for their labor of get- ting the wood cut. “It is obvious,” the industry has in- formed the Government, “that if our mills can be underquoted on sulphite ulp from 20 to 30 per cent on their g«m manufacturing costs, they must romptly cease pulp mill operation, or, n the very near future, embrace fi- nancial ruin.” As the above outlined situation is true in Wisconsin and Minnesota pulp mills, so is it also true in the pulp mills of Maine, a State whose sardine industry as well has been crippled by competition from Norway, a prime fac- tor in the pulp competition.

COURT RULING REVISED IN LIQUOR AUTO CASE | U. S. Wins Appeal Decision in Fight for Seizure of Machine Used in Law Violation. The United States today won in the District Court of Appeals a reversal of the action of the District Supreme Court striking out its answer to an application for the return of an auto- mobile sought to be seized for viola- tion of the liquor laws. The Barry-Pate Motor Co. had filed an intervenor in the case claiming & balance of $195 due it under a_condi- tional sale contract and that it had no knowledge of any {llegal use of the car. The Government's answer denjed the lack of knowledge of the illegal use of the car and called for sf proof. ‘The answer was stricken and the ap- peal taken. Chief Justice Martin in reversing the decision declared that the answer raised a direct issue with the allegations of the petition, which should have been tried upon the evidence.

On January 1, | 1980, foreign stocks in warehouses to- taled 62,900 toms, wherea® domestic | stocks totaled 10,763 tons. On February | 1, 1932, however, foreign stored stocks | had climbed to 150,133 tons, while do- | mestic stocks totaled but 10,744 tons. | American pulp mills, meanwhile, have | shown a constant falling off in pro- | duction, dropping from 4,630,308 tons | in 1830, to 4,000,000 tons in 1931, a drop of 14 per cent. Im from lllj foreign countries totaled 149,499 tons between January and September, 1930 The imports during a similar period in | 1931 followed the world trade trend, and fell off to 125,755 tons. When the chief European exporting countries de- based their currencies, however, the imports to the United States, between Qctober, 1931, and March, 1932, in- | creased to 159,913 tons: Imports Drop Slightly. | Domestic manufacturers estimate that the use of foreign woodpulp dis- places the use of sulpwood at the ratio of from three to five cars of pulpwood | to one car of woodpulp, and that the | cost of the foreign pulp laid down at the mill is less than even the cost to the producers of pulp to manufacture pulp from wood. This is true, they de- clare, even at inland points, where a rail haul is necessary to bring the pulp from the ports to the mills. (Copyright, 1038, bv North American News- —_ Daper Alliance, Inc.)
