Friendly Advice is Factor In ‘ Martial Troubles i

B! J. C. GRAHAM Canadian Press Correspondent

AUCKLAND. N. Z. March l4- (CP) - Greet success is being a- chieved in New Zeeland by con- ciliators set up under the Domes- tic Proceedings Act eight years ego to attempt reconciliations between couples contemplating divorce.

Although the concllietors have rooms in the magistrates courts in the chief cities, there is noth- ing of the courtroom atmosphere about their operations. Concilia- tors usually write a friendly note to the parties when separation pro- ceedings are filed asked the couple to come and talk things over. They seldom meet with an outright rc- fusal. -

lawyers are barred from pre- ceedings before the ooncilialor and he treats anything that occurs h2- fore him as confidential to him- self and the couple involved. In such en atmosphere grievances| are otiten overcome. i.

Some conciliaiors claim that 1n‘ more than 50 per cent of cases before them legal proceedings have been dropped and undertakings given to make a new start.

Conciliatcrs come from varying walks of life. The conciliatcr in Auckland is J. B. Paterson. e 1f- year-old former shipping manager with many years of service on lo- cal bodies behind him. In Weil- ingfon the position is filled by Rev. Harry Squires. young Angll~ can miasloner. An understanding of human nature hes been found a better qualiﬁcation for the post than any legal 0r academic train- ing. l

Need Auxiliary Help ‘

Some of the conclusion have found. however, that quite a large proportion of the cases come be- fore them when it ls too late to bring any reel reconciliation and they favor the creation of auxil- iary bodies to give help at an earlier stage in marital disagree- menis.

To meet this need marriage guid- ance counclls have been formed in several cities on the lines of those operating in Britain. Young couples meeting difficulties in their marriages are being urged to come to these councils for advice before their disagreements become acute. The councils have a panel of ex- perts. including doctors. and train- ed psychoiogists. to call on in deal- ing with special cases. .

Returns show that a very large proportion of the marital failures in New Zealand occur in the first l0 years of married life. Of all divorce petitions filed ‘i2 per cent of the parties have been married lee then 10 years. There is no liv- lug issue in 50 per cent of the cases and only l"! per cent of those filing petitions have three or more chil- dren.

Mr. Squires says that in his ex- perience of cases which have come before him. the second year of marriage is by fer the most dan- gerous pecicd. “The novelty has worn off by then," he sell.
