Atlantic 6700 A NG _STAR WASHINGTON D. C, FRIDAY, MAY 7, 1937 MRS. SAUL DECREE 1S DECLARED VALID Judge Refuses to Annul Mar- riage—First Divorce Was Contested. Justice Oscar R. Luhring of District Court today refused to annul the marriage, July 12, 1927, of Bernard F. Saul, son of the late head of the B. F. Saul real estate invesement house, and Mrs. Mary Harding Saul, which the husband sought. The jurist held that Mrs. Saul was entitled to a decree granting her $350 monthly separate maintainance and custody of their 8-vear-old son, Bernaxd, jr. The case was tried last November, the hearing lasting three weeks. Since then, Justice Luhring has been con- sidering the voluminous evidence. The couple was married in Rich- mond, Ind, and lived together here and in Ontario, Canada, until April 23, 1934, when they separated, Shortly thereafter Saul filed suit for annulment, claiming that Mrs, Saul's prior marriage had not been legally dissolved. She had married her first husband, Herbert W. Gard- ner, October 30, 1917, in Nashville, Tenn, and obtained an absolute di- vorce there July 9, 1927. Saul con- tended the decree was void because neither party was a resident of Ten- nessee at the time. During the lengthy trial Mrs. Saul introduced evidence to show that she and her first husband lived in Ten- nessee until he enlisted in the Army during the World War. After the conflict, he returned to Tennessee and they lived there for a short wile, later moving to Washington, where the first husband obtained employ- ment in the Government. They lived here eight years, but frequently vis- ited Tennessee and maintained a legal residence there, the evidence indi- cated, Justice Luhring stated. The Justice said he was convinced Mrs, Saul and her first husband had noj intention of abandoning Tennessee as | their domicile and that the divorce | obtained there was valid. Mrs. Saul, who lives here at the | sented by Attorneys Alvin L. New- myer and David G. Bress. ARTHUR W. M’CORD, 66, U. S.

The Washington Federation of Churches will withhold its threatened attack on burlesque in Washington until convinced that the theater man- agement will not ‘clean house voluntaril; This assurance was given yesterday by Wilbur La Rose, jr., chairman of the federation’s Civic Affairs Committee, in reply to a request by Arthur R. John of Washington, president of the Burlesque Critics’ Association of America, that “action be held in abeyance.” La Roe wrote: “The evil is not con- fined by any means to the burlesque. The same kind of rottenness appears altogether too frequently in vaudeville acts and in other performances, “We join heartily in your statement that it is possible to develop in burlesque a type of entertainment suitable for both sexes and all ages. “We shall comply with your request and refrain from making any repree sentations for the time being. We are glad the industry appreciates the need for voluntary improvement. But it is only fair to say that if the improve- ment is not forthcoming, we shall not lag behind New York in finding a remedy.” La Roe said the evil to which his organization objected in burlesque is not “confined to so-called strip- teasing, which makes such interesting publicity.
