So many Cincinnati wives have been deserted by their husbands of late that the city council has taken steps toward putting a check on such runaways. It has been found that mortgage loan sharks are contributing factors in a great many cases. A man's ability to mortgage his furniture without the knowledge of his wife is a strong temptation to husbands of weak will. An ordinance has been introduced making such mortgage of no avail unless they bear the signature of both husband and wife. Autos in German Army.
