THE FIRST THING NECESSARY TO BRING ABOUT UNIFORMITY OF MARRIAGE
AND DIVORCE LAWS IS TO HAVE THOSE LAWS MADE AT THE NATIONAL INSTEAD OP AT 48 STATE CAPITALS. WE MUST WIPE OUT STATE LINES IF
WE WOULD INAUGURATE MANY DESIRED REFORMS. MR WILSON BEGAN THIS
WHEN HE APPLIED THE ARTISTS GUM IN HIS SUSCESSFUL EFFORT IN PASSING THE INTERSTATE CHILD LABOR LAW. CONGRESS WILL MAKE THE
LINE FAINTER WHEN IT PASSES THE PROHIBITION LAW. AND THIS NEXT
CONGRESS WILL NO DOUBT MAKE IT ENTIRELY DISAPPEAR WHEN IT PASSES
THE FEDERAL AMENDMENT FOR WOMAN SUFFRAGE. WHEN THE WOMEN ARE
ENFRANCHISED THEY MAY GO TO WORK IN EARNEST TO PROTECT THE HOME
AND AMONG THEIR FIRST ACTS WILL BE THE MARRIAGE LAWS WHICH CON-
STITUTE THE FOUNDATION OF THE HOME.
