Worm Turns When His Cot
Is Sent to Basement.
CHICAGO.—John Kubu, a machinist, who married after he was persuaded that he needed a "feminine touch about the house" only to find his bride's family took all available bedrooms while he was relegated to the kitchen, then the basement, won a court order entitling him "to a bedroom in his own home."
Judge Joseph Sabath issued the order, pending a hearing at which he indicated he would grant the husband's plea for a divorce.
Calling the bride, Mrs. Frances Kubu, a "gold-digger," Judge Sabath declared:
"You don't have to steal everything your husband has."
According to testimony, Kubu, 61, wed last November, after being persuaded by his bride, portly and 41, that he needed a feminine touch about the house.
"Mrs. Kubu told him she was a widow," Kubu's attorney declared. "Only later did he learn that she was three times a widow.
"She promised to cook and care for him and be a loving wife. Instead, she made Kubu give her his weekly $50 pay check, returning only $5 for his use.
Mrs. Kubu insisted that her daughters, Helen, 22, and Adeline, 19, live with them. Each took one of the three bedrooms, forcing Kubu to sleep on a cot in the kitchen.
The Kubus have been estranged since February 1, but the final blow came when the women started to move his cot into the basement.
