WOMAN’S HOME SAVED
THREE SONS IN THE ARMY LONDON, Jan. G. A woman with a baby in her arms told Judge Frank Davis, at Swansea County Court, that she owed rent because, “My three sms have gone into the army.” The judge, who had been asked to make an order giving Swansea Corporation possession of her home, said: “Then I shall not make an order. With three sons in the army she's entitled to three chances.’’ The woman promised to try to keep up the rent payments of 14s a week, and the application for possession war withdrawn.
