QUEEN MARIE - “MAY DEFER HER TRIP 10 U. § Was Offered Flattering Sum To) Appear In American Scenario As “Queen of Movies” ; | MARRIAGE AUGUST 16th! Sibiu (Hermannstadt), Transyl- vania, May 6.—Queen Marie of Ru- mania probably will be obliged to de- fer her long contemplated trip ilo the United States until next year. She had hoped to visit New York prior to the coronaltion of herself and King Ferdinand, which will take place here August 16, but the wedding | of her second daughter, Marie, to} King Alexander of Jugoslavia, early in June, will make it impossible. | Then she ‘has a number of official | visits to make this year to European countries so that a voyage to America after the coronation in August is ex- ‘tremely improbable. The popular Rumanian Queen de-| sires to express her warm apprecia-j| tion and thanks for the many invita- tions she has received from women’s} civic societies, “other organizations! amd personal friends in the United States urging her to yisit America this year. She has even had invitations from motion-picture concerns, one of which offered her a flattering sum to appear in an American sceMario as “Queen ‘of the Movies.” She obviously had io decline ithese novel ‘tenders. ‘The coronation ceremonies, which will take place in the heant of the ‘beautiful Transylvanian Alps, will be on a scale of lavishness and regal grandeur hitherto unknown in the Balkans. A magnificent cathedral of Byzantine design, costing millions of francs, has been especially erected in Sibiu for the crowning of Burope’s most beautiful Queen and King Ferdi- nand. The Rumanian parliament has appropriated an immense sum for the| event. Most of the reigning sovereigns and heads of state throughout Europe have been invited. It is hoped here President Harding will send someone to represent the United States. King Ferdinand and Queen Marie ascended the throne just before the beginning of the world war, and the continuance of the struggle made it necessary to (postpone the coronation from year to year. August 16, which hag ‘been finally chosen for the event, ig the anniversary of Rumania’s en- .try-into the war. “Massive crowns of gold, surmounted by rare stones, have been made for the Rumanian rulers and the Queen | has replaced all her precious jewe?s | which were confiscated by the Bolshe- viki early in the war bv gems and jewelry of even greater beauty and worth. Her pearls alone are sald to represent millions of francs. MOSCOW NOW SRA OF MUD Moscow, May 6.—The shielding blan- ket of the snow has left Moscow and Tevealed a city of mud and slush and ulrepaired, cratered pavements like a battlefield pock-marked ‘by shell holes; and the city stands out in all its revolution-torn ugliness. Droshkies, or Russian cabs, drawn ‘by disconsolate looking horses, careen trom melting ice hillock to slush cra- 4 ter, jogging their. passengers like |: bumping device in an amusement park.

There are a few good, new models ‘but, for the most part, the touring cars, runabouts and lorries which speed through Moscow’s streets, generally: laden with roughly dressed Soviet officials or Red Army officers, ate of a pre-1914 vintage, oRe lunged ghostg from the scrapheap, coughing bad gasoline and pouring out smoke barrages of oil fumes. /The sanitary condition of the city) is almost unimaginable to western strangers. A report of the Moscow Soviet recently said there were mil- lions of barrels of refuse and sew- erage in the dump yards, unable to ‘be moved because of the ‘transport shortage. < Less than 30 percent of Moscow's houses have comp)de sewage and running ‘water facilities ani many drain pipes are 90 blocked with the refuse of years that they are useless. Some efforts are to be made this coming summer toward sewage repair and, here and ‘there, the city’s dingl- ness is being relieved by a bit of paint as private shopkeepers touch ‘their new establishmeats. ‘—IT IS WORTH CUT THIS OU MONE Cut out this slip, enclose with 5c and mail it to Foley & Co., 2835 Shef- field Ave. Chicago, Il., writing your name and address clearly.

CAPSULES Sale, Seccessfal ‘ach ao) bears name £2 up! By Harry N. Rickey (Special Cable to NEA Service; Copy: right, 1922, by NEA Service, anc.) Genoa, May 6.+The biggest shock of Genoa has not been alone the spe- tacular things the Russians have dane—but what they look like. World diplomats here expected to see wild-eyed men with long hair and matted whiskers, with knives in their teeth and payits in their boots.” And they were shdcked to find the Russians were not freaks at all. When the (Russian delegates first arrived in Genoa there were many jokes at their expense anit a disposi- tion in some quarters not to take them seriously. Now, needless td say, the attitude toward them has changed entirely. From the moment they gnnounced their treaty with Germany they have shown diplomatic cleverness and have proved their right to be treated at least as equals in one ef the greatest diplomatic games ever played in Europe. They have occupied the center of the stage and the ‘spotlight has never left them. + © Fashionable Raiment . Far from being disheveled fanatics, the (Russians in appearance rank well up toward ‘the top of all delegations. Almost without exception. they are well dressed, and on all formal occa- sions their attire .is strictly proper to the last detail. The propaganda ef- fect of this has been very great, for adherence to convention means much in European official circles. In total quantity, whiskers among the Russians are much less than in many other delegations. The five leaders of ‘the ‘Soviet dele- gation—Tchitcherin, Krassin, Litvin- off, Joffee and Rakonsky—are all men of the highest educaton. Their linguis- tic abilities are amazing. All speak ‘Russian, German, French, Italian and English, and some several other lan- guages, They not only speak these! languages, but speak them correctly. Tehitcherin a Bachelor Tchitcherin’s English is flawless. At the opening session he read his speech in Russian, and translated it into French, then into English and finally into Italian. The five chief delegates are all about 50, and of distinguished appear- ‘ance, Tchitcherin, a nobleman in the old regime, was in the czar’s diploma- tic service. He was educated in Russia and in Berlin and Paris and has a doctor of laws degree. He is one of the most powerful members of the Soviet government, Alone of the five’ deie- gates, Tchitcherin is not married.: He is above average height, slightly stoopely wears & ‘dlosely qropped mustache and imperial, and looks like a college professor. Krassin for 25 years has been one of the leading electrical engincers in Europe. He = was born in Siberia. While a prisoner there for political activity he helped build the Trang-Si- berlan railway, He was one of the ori- ginal founders of the Bolshevist party VICTIM AND SCENE Miss Gertrude Hanna, pictured here, | is the 25-year-old girl whose body, evi- dently hidden there by her murderer, was found in the basement of the va- cant parsonage of the United Presby- ‘terian church at Hoopeston, Il. Phy- sicians say she was smothered or.died from an overdose of some anesthetic, Miss Hanna, momber of a’ Hoopeston family, was formerly a choir singer there. Later she went to Chicago, where she was employed as a nurse and saleswoman. Returning home re- cently, she went for a stroll on March 31 and never was seen alive again. | John C.

'*%' Rakonsky’s Career ‘Rakonsky, one of the most interest- dig of the group, was born in Bulgaria, and educated in Swiss, German’ and French universities, obtaining a bach- elor of laws degree from the Univer- sity of Paris, .<j/)). He has heen ‘a’ Socialist ‘since: he was 15 years old, :and has been ex- pélled from Bulgaria, Germany and Russia for Socialist activity. is He was one of the leaders of the Russian revolution in 1905 and was jailed in Rumania for Bolshevism in 1917. He was rescued by 35 Russian sol- diers, who took him \to Russia, where he became one of the Soviet leaders Now ‘Rakonsky ‘is president of the Ukrainian Soviet Republic. He ik short and stocky, with smooth face and a keen sense of humor. He is ir charge of Soviet propaganda at Genoz —and he’s a past master at the job. Litvinoff, a college professor, taugh: many years in the Berlitz School oc. Languages in London: ‘He is one o: the most remarkable linguists ir Europe, speaking practically all lan: guages. He is of average physique an¢ has neither mustache or beard, Joffee is a lawyer of high standing shaving a doctor of laws degree fron the University of Munich. Hig whie kers are white and luxuriant. Litvin- off and Joffee are Jews, but the ethe: three are not, though there are sev- eral amoNg the~subordinates of -he delegation. : Their ability ‘to speak language: gives the Russians a, great advantage at the Genoa conference. _Another great advantage is the fact that, ex- cepting the British, they come better prepared with documents and figures than the other delegations. They in- sist on taking time to answer propos- als and questions, but when they an- sweyr they back the answer up with such facts and figures that allied dele- gates are dazed. Some of the facts and figures. won’t stand analysis, but the allies are kept busy finding the weak spots, | Hardest Workers. The Russians,~from _Tchitcherin down, are hardest workers at the conference. They are at it night and day, “holding conferences among themselves, ‘with the allies and with the Germang, and the rest of the time searching records and preparing docu- ments, . The amofnt and character of the propaganda they turn out is _amaz- ing. There 4s always something for the journalists at Russian headquar:- ers, and always somebody there who can speak -any language, The other day one of Rakonsky’s assistants gave a statement to English, Spanish, French, German and Italian corres- pondents in succession, and-each cor- which, it is claimed, ‘will render JOPPEE ‘respondent said hig spoken perfectly. One of the most interesting reac- tions to the Russians’ personality is the almost universal belief among other delegates and journalists that, ‘however mistaken they may be in their social and politigal ideas, they are sin- cere men, earfestly trying to accom- Plish the regeneration of Russia, along more advanced lines than-ever before attempted in history. If ‘Russia gucceeds in getting the full’ recognition she demands, if! will be due in a great measure to the character and ability of the men sent here from Moscow. INSANITY.AS _ ‘GROUND FOR . ‘DIVORCE? Paris, May 6—The bill introduced in the Chamber ofDeputies by Andre ‘Tardieu and Georges Aimond making insanity a legal.ground for divorce thas met with considgrable opposition: The ‘bill provided that a husband or wife should be entitled to bring an action for divorce after the person to whom he or she was married had been letained for three’ years in a recognized lunatic asylum and if com- petent . medical. authogities declared the patient ‘was meitally' deficient be- yond hope of recovery. ! The measure is opposed on the ground that' no’ physician is sufficient- ly infallible to be abla to ‘state that }@ case is hopeless beyond recovery. ‘ Confirmed opponents of all’ changes in the French divorce laws are draw- ing distressing pictures’ of ‘the “in- curable” patient recovering and re- turning to the bosom of his family to. find his wife married again.: ‘Andre Tardieu, one of the authors of the bill, was’a member of the last cabinet of| Premier Clemenceau and was French High Commissioner in America during the’ world ‘war. “Insanity. was a ground for divorce in France 1¢0 years ago. In Germany, Switzerland and other’ countries it is considered legitimate grounds for ai- vorce although the laws vary in im- Portant particulars in each country. ST, LOUIS COUPLE ’ CELEBRATE THEIR 65th ANNIVERSARY : St. Louis, Mo., May 6..— Mr. and Mrs. Robert J, Rombauer celebrated their sixty-fitth wedding anniversary this week. Mr. Rombauer is 92 years old and his wife is 93. The two met in St. Louis as refu- gees of the Hungarian revolution of 1849. Mrs. Rombauer was the widow of Count Theodore Dembinski, a ma- jor in the Hungarian forces under Gen. Louis Kossuth, had followed him through the campaigns of the war, and ‘fled with him in Kossuth’s party to the lost cause to Turkey. fter she and Count Dembinski came to America she returned on a false pass- port to visit her family in Hungary,\ was detected by an Austrian spy, and spent six months in’ military prison. Rombaver, a lieutenant’in the Hun- garian- army, had been captured and held.a: prisoner a year before he was’ ransomed. He had \“rozen his hands and feet in a night retreat in which many of his compatriots, who became exhausted, were frozen to death.’ He served in the Civil war as colonel of the First Missouri Reserves, which engaged in hazardous _ skirmishing warfare in Arkansas and Missouri. Colonel Rowibauer was president of the board of assessors, a mémber of the school board and* the school li- brary board. In 1909 he published a history of the Civil war in Missouri. In spite of their ages and the hard- ships they have gone through, both are unusually active. language was GULLS AND DUCKS IN MINOT ZOO . Minot, N.

Groups, extremely small numerical- tly and perhaps ‘devoid of any power to change tho trend of things, which formerly aired their grievances, if at all, in secret meotings, and wer2 promptly voted down, have recently, lin several instanc2s, surprised Mos- cow by coming right out in the open, ‘Principal among these was the group of 24 persons headed by A. Shliapnikoff, of the -metal workers growp, who, disappointed with the te- abandonment of Communism, dared to ‘take their grievances to the-Third In- ternationale. They were promptly sat ypon and threatenod with expulsion rom the Communist party unless they obeyed: discipline. AHN The two ‘Mensheviki and two Social Revolutionists in ‘the Moscow Soviet, lgenerally timid folks, weighted down by the thousand or more Communist or ‘non partisan” fellow members of the Soviet, plucked up courage enopgh tne other day to speak right out in a hig public meeting, They merely -wanted to change tho wording ofa resolution anent the Third Internationale but ‘the fact ‘that they stood up and voted against’ the scheduled plan, despite the hooting and jeering of the majority and in the présoncd of Leon Trotzky, War Minis- ter, and dozens of foreign journalists and diplomats; attending the meeting seemed something new in Moscow. BEARDED GRAIN BEST YIELDER In Recent’ ‘Comparisons — This Wheat Showed Marked Superiority Fargo, N. D., May 6.—That bearded grain is a ‘rather better yielder than non-bearded grain was the conclusion indicated by L. R. Waldran, plant breeder of the agricultural college in a discussion .before the North Da- kota academy of science meeting here. (He began his talk with an acknowl- edgment that the beards which work their way to the skin through shirts and overalls, are not a pleasant thing for the shocker to'contend with; he admitted that the matter was a hard one to decide; but he ended by citing several cases which seemed to give tha bearded wheat the advantage. “Recently in Delaware it has been found in a comparison of over 30 var- feties of groups, bearded and non- bearded “that the bearded wheat showel in general a marked: super; jority,” said ‘Mr. Waldron in his re- port. “Over a ten year test the bearded wheats outyielded the non- ‘bearded by 3.3 bushels per acre. In the poorer wheat years the bearded sorts were*more markedly ahead_of the non-bearded wheats than in the better years. “The bearded wheats seem to be more resistant to diseaso than the smooth wheats and the difference was responsible largely for difference in yield. The bearded wheats seem bet- ter able to resist scab, blight and oth- er similar diseases. “The speaker has made crosses of ‘Marquis and Kota wheat and in tho, Ithird generation from the cross there are a number of families which con- ‘ain beth bearded and smooth plants, In the case of a large number of heads one should. be able to determine’ with considerable exactness whether yield is affected by the presence of beards. This has' been done ‘and 'the results show that when’ other things are 'equalized the bearded’ wheat outyields |the smooth wheat by ahont eight per- cent. The difference is not marked when applied to one acre ‘but if it were: applied to the entire wheat crop of North Dakota it-would run into a handsome figure.
