WHOLESALE DIVORCE.
GERMANY’S “CLEAN UP.”
(Received Mav 10, 3 p.m.) LONDON, May 9
The Daily Chronicle’s Berlin correspondent says: Tho Germans, ordinarily, are inclined to bo horrified at tlio large numbers of divorces granted in England. This is chiefly because German cases are not reported in the press. Germany is now bidding fair to outdo tho United States in the direction of rapid, wholesale divorce. Last week tho Berlin court granted 17 Q .decrees at the rate t:f one every fifteen minutes. They were mostly cases arising out of war marriages, the majority being on the husband’s petition and the chief grounds were simply ineompatability of temper.—A. and N.Z.C.A.
