NEW YORK, Oct. 7. (/P)—A new
solution to the world’s divorce prob
lem was brought back to civilization
by George Palmer Putman, publisher
and explorer, home from four months
spent in the Arctic wastes and Baffin
land. The solution, he said, lies in
the emulation of the primitive Eskimo
who made divorce non-existant for his
race through the development of a per
feet economic partnership in which
the woman’s place is in the igloo
chewing the husband’s tough seal skin
boots into proper softness and flexi
bility for the next hunting trip, writh
starvation always just around the
corner. The Eskimo still remains one
of the happiest races on earth.
