RUSSIA ADOPTS EASY MARRIAGE.
NEW CODE INVOLVES FEW RESTRICTIONS. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Aus. and N.Z. Cable Association. MOSCOW, November 17. The Soviet Legislature endorsed the marriage proposals of the Government. A marriage now will only involve the trouble of going to the Commissariat to record marital relations which will require an identity card costing a few pence. People may live in or out of wedlock as frequently as they please. There will be no illegitimacy, the new code says, unless cohabitation is accidental or merely temporary.
