Dear Editor:â€" { The unexpected has happened and i the Senate is overworked; not ail of j it, but a part of it, the Divorce Com-' mittec, and that any part of that aug-| ust and leisurely body should be < straining every nerve and crowding] every hour to keep up with its work is surprising enough. It happened thus: â€" In the fifty years from 1867 to 1916, inclusive. Parliament grant- ed 310 divorces; in the five years, from 1916 to 1921 inclusive, 294 div- ori^es were granted, just 16 less than in the preceding fifty years and In the following five years from 1922 to 1926, inclusive, 608 divorces, and in the one session 1926-27, 196 divorces a^jl the last session 238, and this ses- sio almost 250. Yet we have no divorce court in Ontario to deal with them. The Divorce Committee of the Senate has been increased from nine to fifteen and for the uncon- tested cases, it breaks into two parts and conducts a two-ring circus, al- though for contested cases the Com- mittee must meet as a whole. Still we righteous Ontario folk won't have a Divorce Court; a court that could make provisions for the children, which the Senate committee canno because they fear that by having a Court we would increase the num- ber of divorces. In adition to the cases tried before the Senate Com- mittee, it v.as stated in the Senate debate that in 1928 there were 548 Cana(.-an div^rcc| receivf)! in the ?ity of Detroit. It is clearly seen that without a court, divorces are rapidly increasing. The remainder of the 96 Senators have gone to rest â€" no, not eternal â€" just until March 2oth, afte • having worked seven days, during which time they passed a Bill asking that a Divorce Court in Ontario be estab- lished. In theory the Gove-'nment has now a majority in the Senate, but in actual practice it has not, since four or five of the Liberal Sen- ate s cannot attend, owing to great age or physical deformities.
