District Depression and Divorce judge allen o thurman initiates a wholesome as he refuses to Issue divorce decrees until the filfees been have ing paid The change was made necessary by the number of affidavits of lmpecunloslty accompanying Increasing divorce complaints - The change does not perpetuate the sources and causes of matrimonial turbulence Divorces may be granted the records perpetuated and the decrees Issued when the fees finally are paid The action of the court should'serve as a direct relief to a growing public burden Young people who cannot afford to finance their divorces at least will have to wait until they can before they may remarry In the statf Youthful lovers sometimes forget thlq and rush into ' new marriages and new obligation when they cannot or say they cannot afford to pay the filing fees In their divorce actions - The divorce court has not escaped the rigors of the depression Husbands In default of alimony payments frequently are brought Into court on contempt proceedings They generally plead that they cannot find work and have no Income an excuse which Is as open to the man who won’t work as to the one who cannot find employment Judge Thurman recently Indicated a determination to enforce the alimony orders of the court In spite of the depression He Indicated that he might have alimony defaulters spend their evenings and Sundays In Jail and leave them the days to look for work a pertinent and wholesome suggestion The plight of the man who Is under alimony obligations and cannot find work presents only half of the picture There also Is to be considered the plight of dependents la broken homes In whose Interest ' V alimony yrag orderq - ’ to-d- o laid previoualy down is highly Im- portant because it tends to remove the last remaining Sullivan lihood of inflation and tends also to encourage business to go forward Since the dollar was formally revalued at 5900 cents in gold such apprehension as has continued about passible Inflation has expressed itself mainly In two forms One is that the president under the authority granted him last spring still has power to reduce the value yet further as far Sown as 50 cents in gold This condi tlon weighs little even in the minds of the persons disposed toward alarm The present status of the' dollar is that theoretically it may range between minimum of 50 cents In gold and maximum of 60 cents Few expect however that within the foreseeable future any change will be made from the present standard 5900 cents Moreover possible variations limited to a range from 50 cents in gold to 60 is a sufficient approach to stabilization to enable business to go on with con fidence Actually except In a few quarters oversensitive or overcritical apprehension about uncertainty of the gold content of the dollar does not operate as a deterrent to business This does not deny of course that business may be fearful about developments fields remote from the gold value of the dollar The sum of all Is that business is going forward and has had renewed surge since the president revalued the dollar like-Mar- k expenditures Mount Such apprehension as remains about inflation has to do with another phase of the government’s fiscal policy and practice It is commonly said and is reasonably accurate that If over sufficiently long time government ex pendituree continue to be greatly in excess of income the government must reach f point where It would pay its bills In unsecured greenbacks This would be Inflation of the sort that practically everyone would dread On this point the president has announced In his budget message to congress January 4 as his “best Judgment’' nd his “belief" that government expenditures can be brought within its receipts In other words the budget
