Wingharn Advance'RTitnes, Thursday, Deo. 20, 1962 Page 19 Royal Commission on Divorce Asked for by B&P Women Highlighting a meeting with Prime Minister Diefenbaker last month, six delegates of The Canadian Federation of Business and Professional Womdn's Clubs headed by their president, Miss Elsie Gregory MacGill, asked Mr. Diefenbaker to appoint a Royal Commission on Divorce. Mrs, Beryl Darling, who pre- sented the subject, pointed out that federal and provincial acts dealing with divorce are out- dated, out-moded and do not represent the attitudes of Can- adian citizens of 1962. This is also true of the Canadian Di- vorce Jurisdiction Act of 1930. The Federation strongly supports an amendment of this Act to give men and women equality of civil rights and to allow the married woman the same right to establish an independent domicile as the man and the un, married woman. Of vital interest to the work- ing woman was the request that the federal Department of Lab- our extend its studies of pen- sions for women to include port- able pensions and contributory pensions and contributory pen- sions. The delegations also Rev. C. Jardine Speaks at W.I. Rev. C. M. Jardine was the guest speaker at the Christmas meeting of the Women's Insti- tute held on December lath. Mrs. H.
