Marriage by Remote Control Declared Legal in Oklahoma TULSA, Okla., Aug. 31 A soldier with the invasion forces in France and a girl in Oakland, Calif., were married here by remote control and it could only happen legally in Oklahoma. Attorneys predict the ceremony second of its type in Tulsa will be the forerunner of hundreds of weddings by proxy destined to make Oklahoma the Gretna Green of the U. S. armed forces. Months ago, the army and navy faced the fact that matrimony was one of the biggest personal problems worrying the boys at the front. Lots of GI Joes wanted to get hitched, for various reasons. For example, some service men overseas discovered their marriages were faulty for one reason or another and their wives couldnt draw the monthly allotments. Others were just plain lovesick and afraid their absence would make the heart of the one and only back home grow fonder for somebody else. Married, they could do a better job of fighting. Inquiries were made by the war department to determine whether any type of marriage by mail would stand up in court and be recognized in determining allotments to service wives. After an exhaustive search, the National Association of Legal Aid committees in New York found Oklahoma was the only state in which a proxy marriage with neither party present would be iron clad.
