Political Infidelity

In a spirited suit for divorce last week, grizzled old General Josef Karel, once aide-de-camp to Emperor Franz Josef, denounced his wife for something new in the annals of Austrian jurisprudence: political infidelity.

"We have been married 35 years and she knows well enough I am a Monarchist," shouted General Karel. "But what do I have to put up with? She insults the picture of Kaiser Karl* that hangs in our home. Worse than that she is a notorious Nazi. She holds secret Nazi meetings in our attic without my knowledge. Such goings on! I don't feel in such circumstances that my pension is safe."

To save old General Karel's pension and set an example to Naziphile wives, the Court promptly granted his petition for divorce, set an Austrian precedent.
