A "travelling divorce' is go deseribød In cases where a person lives the necessary six weeks in one county and then enters an- other to sue for divorce.

The state supreme court now has before it an appeal from the Ormsby County district court in which Judge Clark Guild held he hind Jurisdiction in a suit filed by in resident of Washie county.

Should the supreme court up- hold the appeal, thereby ruling that divorce seckers must obtain their decrees in the county in which they live, the entire divorce set-up in Nevada is endangered,

When the "easy" six-week divorce law was adopted by the legislature in 1931 a Зор Was thrown to the rural counties by representatives of Washoe county. site of Reno, where the majority of divorce mekers live, when an- other statute was passed allowing divorce suits to be fled in any county. It is this latter statute whose meaning is being attacked.

Lawyers Are Anxious

The 300-odd attorneys whose

major income is from advising persons. on their divorce suits, are waiting with anxiety the high court's ruling. There are

more attorneys per capita in Nevada than elsewhere in the United States.

A favourable decision might cause the rurally-dominated leg.s | inture to revoke the entire divorce Jaw structure unless measures $13.00 $24.00 $23.00 could be adopted to evade the

court's ruling.

Such persons as Mrs. Anna Roosevelt Dall, daughter of President Roosevelt; Mr. Emlen Knicht Davies, now divorced wife of Joseph Davies,
