The churchman laid) the blame for divorce on the ab sence of religion; the lowered | gard for the biblical injunction,} “Whom, therefore, God hath joined together, let no man put asunder.” When it was suggested that di vorce was only the outward evi dence of domestic misery, and that ft was doubtful whether religion in the ordinary sense of the word| could make congenitally inharmo-} niows persons happy, there was no| very clear answer forthcoming. | There appeared to be a conviction that mismated men and women,| welded together by proper religious | scruples against divorce, would/ gradually grow callouses that would protect the delicate nerve ends of sensibility. One .pastor, with fervid loyalty to “my policies,” suggested that} children were the solution of the divorce evil, and quoted some hazy figures to show that childless cou ples predominate in the divorce! court. He would concede, though,| that children in this respect acted| merely as a clutch or a brake, that} held parents back on the matri-) monial downhill, overcoming but not destroying the gravitation towards | divorce. | Liquor Not the Reason. The prohibitionists positively identified John Barleycorn as hel co-respondent In most divorce cases, but the burden of numbers went/ against him. Confronted with the| fact that Maine, for 25 years a pro-| hibition state, ranks fourth in the/ number of drunken husbands whose wives sought divorce, also 19th in drunken wives whose husbands did likewise, he held his peace. Addi- tional argumentative figures were| presented to him—that only 1.9 per} cent of the divorces of the United | States in a 10-year period were di-! rectly attributable to alcohol, and but 19.5 per cent in any way in directly due to drink. The prohtbi-! tionist was silenced, but not con-| vinced. ia The labor unionist believed that | poverty and {industrial condition generally had an impulsive bearing| toward divorce, but records showed that Ireland, perhaps the poorest | country in the world, has the few- est divorces; that in the cotton spinning districts of Massachusetts and Georgia and the mines of Pennsylvania, divorce was almost negligible in proportion to what it] is in the centers of wealth. The| unionist I left satisfied with his! generalities | The Lawyers’ Explanation. The men of the law held to the belief that the laws made divorces | possible—a belief that is easily demonstratable, for South Carolina has no divorces for the reason that| the law does not grant them. Yet) the sum total of marital misfortune | in South Carolina 1g not notably leas than any law lax state. If mismar. ried people cannot settle thetr| troubles in divorce court, they will | settle them somewhere else, to the! greater scandal of society | 80 the quest for divorce informa-| tion ended, with Washington hap. pily absolved of any atmospheric, | geographic, topographic penchant | for divorce, but with the main un-| ending question as to the cause un-| answered except by the ur tory generalization ‘Because some men and some women are unsuited to each other.
