D—8 SENATE LEADERS SEEK RE-ELECTION Robinson, Borah and Mc- Nary Among Group in Races Next Year. By the Associated Press. The 1936 ballots will carry a liberal eprinkling of “big names.” For in- stance, so many nationally-known men will be in the running for Senate seats, that the senatorial elections promise to be of unusual interest. The Constitution says that one- third, or 32, of the Senate’s 96 seats must be filled every two years. Of the | “constitutional 32" at stake next year, @ dozen are now held by men who are wveterans of at least 10 years’ service in the Senate. Included in these 12 are the leaders of both major parties—Joseph T. Rob- inson, Democrat of Arkansas, and Charles L. McNary, Republican of | Oregon—and the Senate's dean in point of service—William E. Borah, Republican of Idaho. Borah came here in 1907. In length of service, Rob- inson is tied for fifth place with George W. Norris, Nebraska Repub- lican independent, whose seat also is at stake next year. McNary holds down No. 8 position. ! Others in-the senior first 12 and | their service rankings are: | Morris Sheppard, Democrat of | Texas, of prohibition fame, tied for No. 4; Arthur Capper, Republican of Kansas; Pat Harrison, Democrat of | Mississippi, and Henry W. Keyes, Re- publican of New Hampshire, tied for No. 9; Carter Glass, Democrat of Vir- ginia, No. 10; James Couzens, Repub- lican of Michigan, No. 13; Jesse H. Metcalf, Republican of Rhode Island, No. 15, and Thomas D. Schall, Re- publican of Minnesota, No. 16. WIFE ASKS DIVORCE FROM DR.

Patten, filed suit for absolute divorce in Dis- trict Supreme Court yesterday. She said her husband’s crueities, which allegedly began about six years ago, forced her to seek police protec- tion and drove her from his home September 3. | On one occasion, she told the court, | Dr. Patten chased her along the street, | greatly frightening and humiliating her. She also charged infidelity. Claiming through her attorneys, Jo V. Morgan and J. A. Marshall, that she had paid a considerable portion of the purchase price of thrce apart- ments in the Parkwood, valued in ex- cess of $40,000, she asked the court to order transferred to her the stock rep- | resenting their ownership. Her peti- | tion contained a request for Mxmcny{ and custody of the children. | PAINTING RULING DUE i Power to Deny Permission far‘ Work Is Questioned.

By the Associated Press. Miss Katherine Lenroot, chief of the Children’s Bureau, yesterday heartily approved removal of the stigma of illegitimacy from children born cut of wedlock, but held that needed in- formation on identification should be conserved. Commenting on the resolution of the vital statistics section of the American Public Health Association convention in Milwaukee, urging elimination from official birth records of all references to the legitimacy of a child, Miss Len- root said: “The Children's Bureau has been interested for many years in the pro- tection of children against the stigma of illegitimacy. We have taken the attitude that no transcripts of records for school purposes, or employment " purposes, or other purposes affecting the life of the child, should contamn this information. “However, definite problems of identification do arise. What we are therefore most interested in is practical methods to safeguard from stigma, at the same time conserving needed information on identity.” .
