Is there any good reason why these children |—why any children in Seattie—should know the awful” |pangs of hunger? there any excuse why they should know the jdread of being kicked out into the street for want of jhouse rent? | “Yes,” says the law. “There is a reason.

Now, sick and feeble, the divorce is charged up by the |inexorable law as sufficient reason why she should not |be entitled to a mother’s pension. ~*e & *& © eee © a mothers’ pension law was designed to give children a chance for a fair start in life. The lawmakers had in mind the idea that it is better for children to have the care of a good mother, how ever destitute, than to live in the finest of institutions, But when they worded the law they forgot to mention divorced women. The omission an oversight. : So, after the law was in operation, up rose Judge A. W. Frater and _ declared that a divorced woman, however destitute, was not to receive mothers’ pensions any more. ~ ee et © x~e ee IVE years ago Thomas F. Murphine, attorney, was asked by a client to eject Mrs. Dahiberg from her home for failing to pay rent, Murphine learned of her plight. Instead of ejecting her, he ob tained an allowance of $10 a month for her from the charity commis sioner. He also tried to get Mr. Dahiberg arrested. Dahiberg left town. When the mother’s pension law went into operation, Mrs. Dahil got $25 a month, having three children under 15. A fourth child is Uy But last month the pension ceased. Judge Dykeman was informed she was a divorcee, and Judge Dykeman sustained Judge Frater’s de cision. So now Mrs. Dahiberg has neither pension nor county allow ance. ~ek ke xe ee ODAY, one week before Christmas, the Dahiberg family is pinched for the pitiful ten dollars ren tal on their little cottage. : And, mark this!. If Mrs. Dahlberg had not of iained a divorce, the law—the mothers’ pension law —would have provided for her children. Because she innocently obtained a divorce, law condemns her children to suffering and. want. The law says Mrs. Dahlberg and her children may starve for all it DO YOU THINK THAT IS - |RIGHT?
