MARRIAGES WITHOUT
CHILDREN
HABIES TOO EXPENSIVE.”
should childlesa marriages be annulledi This question-raised by the decision of
Milan tribunal which ordered the dalment of a marriago on such grounds ---was ditansted: by <htïï©M: »L Seaton- Tiedeman, secretary of the Divores Law Reform Union, with a repromntative the Daily News.
"There is no doubt,” abe said, “that there are thousands of people who would welcome a change in the law that would make a similar decision possible in this country. Where n childless marriage
leads to excessivo unhappiness and separa tion, which is continued, say, for three years an opportunity might well be given to the parties to seek divorce.
"Wa frequently receive letters from men and women in this unhappy position. There are many childless homes where children are eagerly desired Often a fman writes, I thought that I was mar ying someone who would be the mother of my childrep, but she refuses to be. Often, too, a woman writes. I found after I married that my husband had no intention of having any children. If I had known this earlier I would certainly not have married him./
··DISAPPOINTED COUPLES.
It is no exaggeration to say,” added Mrs. Beaton-Tiedeman, 'that there are thousands-of such cases. Almost invari ably they result in unhappiness and separation. Sometimes the parties dīga a private deed of separation. In other they continue to live together! nominally, but in a wretched state of unhappiness that frequently leads to im morality. Such impossible unions might will be held to be 56 cases for the Divorce! Court

The high cost of living sppears to be increasing the proportion of childless marriages. There is no doubt,' said Mrs. Beaton-Tiedeman, that the sconc mie position is making the problem a more serious one. In several cases that have been brought to our notice there is a difference of opinion between husband and wife on the question whether child. ren can be afforded.
£.
** In some cases, the wife insists that a baby is not too expensive, but finds that the husband takes a different view. In other cases the husband protests that his wife refuses to have children because the expense would mean the giving up of various luxuries.
** It seems invariably to be felt that the isw.should provide some avena of escape from such unsatisfactory conditions. Our own view is that people who have been separated for three years should be given an opportunity to sue faz divorce, th
The reported proposal of the Italian Bocialista that childless marriages should be compulsorily annulled is, however, a monstrous one. When husband and wife Are willing to live together in a child- lees condition which may be through no fault of their own-they are perfectly entitled to do so. It would be in oletable the State had any power to intervene.
“But it is quite & different thing when such a union leads-ng it does in so many cases-to unhappiness, separation and immorality."
