Traveled Through Egypt and America in Paper Experts’ Methods of Treating Incompetent Millionaire Will Be Reveated INVOLVES HIS $50,000,000 New York, Nov. 27.—(4)—On the crest of a blue velvet cushion en- cased in the steel of a Fifth avenue bank vault today lies a 300 carat dia- mond necklace that has traveled through Egypt and America in brown paper parcels since the day it graced the throat of Napoleon's empress. More than a hundred years ago) , Napoleon I gave the jewels to his| young wife, Marie Louise, in his joy over the birth of their son, whom he dreamed would carry on the Napoleon “Dynasty.” Since then it has graced the throats of an Austrian empress and Arch-| duchess, has traveled the sands of Egypt and the subways of New York, has been the awe of customs officials and the wonder of bank clerks. “ Today it is in the care of Mrs. Charles F. Townsend, who was born the Princess Baronte, heir of the Italian Prince Baronte, and who is a friend of the Arch-Duchess of Aus- tria, Marie Therese, its 74-year-old owner, King Refuses Them A little more than a year ago Mrs. Townsend, the wife of a retired Eng- lish government official formerly serving in Egypt, carried the jewels to King Fuad of Egypt who consider- ed buying them for his queen. ‘No armed escort, no armoured cars accompanied the necklace that once was Marie Louise's most prized pos- session. Mrs. Townsend put them in- to a cardboard shoe-tox, tucked them under her arm and boarded a second class train so that she might attract no attention on her way to the pal- ace. ‘When she arrived the king and his court gasped in horror at what she had done. The necklace was duly in- spected, but the queen preferred a rope of pearls, so the diamonds were not purchased. Instead they returned to the Arch- Wrapped In Brown Paper ‘Then Mrs. Townsend came to America and the jewels were sent to her, and admitted to the United States—duty free. Customs officials clustered about it when Mrs. Town- send called for it, exclaiming over its brilliance and rect ling armour- ed cars and police escorts for its jour- ney to the bank. “Look!” one assistant called in wonder to his companion. “Look what Napoleon gave his girl friend!” Mrs. Townsend wrapped the jewels in brown paper and tied them with twine, boarded a subway and carried them to her New York apartment and thence to the bank which houses them today. ‘The necklace, set in silver and gold. has 47 diamonds. the larger ones weighing 15 carats. Around its cir- cular design hang 10 briolettes and nine pendants.

Featuring the case is the odd ques- tion of the relative merits of psycho- analysis and gland treatment in the cure of mental disorders as contrast- ed with the usual methods. An ar- ray of psychiatrists, phycho-analy- sists, endocrinologists and internists may testify. Guardianship of Stanley McCor- mick, youngest son of the late Cyrus McCormick, “harvester king,” who for some years has been a mental case, is now in the hands of his wife, Mrs. Katherine McCormick, and his} brother and sister, Harold F. Mc- Cormick and Mrs. Anita McCormick Blaine. For some time Mrs. McCormick has charged that Dr. Edward Kem: of New York, and other specialis employed by his brother and siste! are alienating his affgctions for her. By Dec. 1 Dr. Kempf will have re- ceived a total of $300,000 for treating the invalid multimillionaire. The wife also charges that the treatment given by these specialists is not. for | the best interest of the patient and that Dr. Kempf has barred her from the 40-acre McCormick estate near Wife Seeks Sole Right On these grounds Mrs. McCormick is suing to have Harold McCormick and Mrs. Blaine removed as guard- jans of her husband's estate and to have herself appointed his sole guardian. A_ millionaire though a prisoner. McCormick lives within stone wails on his vast California estate, sur- rounded by utmost luxury. He has his own orchestra, his own motion picture theater, and a small army of servants, His upkeep costs $150,000; @ year. Back in 1902, Stanley McCormick was active in promoting the merger of McCormick, Deering and other agricultural implement interests. In 1904 he married. In 1906 he was stricken, and in 1908 he was adjudged incompetent and three guardians were named, including his wife. Psycho-Analysis Used Fortunes have been spent in ef- forts to cure the malady, but Mrs. McCormick insists there has been little improvement. She accuses her husband's brother.and. sister and the doctors of attempting to alienate his affections for her and of practicing Psycho-analysis toward this end, in- stead of employing the usual methods of treatment. Harold McCormick and Mrs. Blaine, and their doctors, however, that his case requires such treat- ment and that he is responding. The trial opened with both ‘sides Prepared to fight to the bitier end for custody of McCormick and his millions. A corps of legal advisors, headed by Newton D. Baker, secre- tary of war under President Wilson, will attempt to prove Mrs. McCor- mick’s charges through the testimony of medical experts. medical experts who will testify that treatment given the paticnt has becn for his best interests. It is reported that the whole his- | tory of the Stanley McCormick case, kept secret for many ycars, will be aired at the trial. Coyotes Found Hiding ell .

HOUSE COMMITTEE GENERAL SHAKEUP | SBEN IN DECEMBER iRepublican Majority to Result in Weakening of Democratic Representation | Washington, Nov. 27.—\P)—The overwhelming Republican majority of | 102 in the house forecasts a general | shakeup in most of the committee | memberships that will strengthen the } Republican and weaken the Demo- jcratic representation. Republican leaders have indicated | to representative Garner of Texas, the minority leader, that they desire {to increase their membership on the major committees of 21 members from 13 to 14. This would reduce the Demo- crats from 8 to 7, and would necessi- tate the transfer of several to other committees. The Republican majority was in-| creased by the 1928 elections from 34 jin the seventieth congress to 102 in the seventy-first. The house member- ship of 435 has 267 Republicans, 165 | Democrats, one Farmer-Labor, andj | two vacancies. When the regular session begins on Monday only five committees organ- | ized in the special session will be/| functioning. The remainder will be} organized later in the week, after the! Republicans and Democrats have se- |lected their committee slgtes and sub- mitted them to the house. In them the {changes will be made. |, With approximately 130 vacancies to be filled by both sides, scores of | changes are expected. Representative Tilson of Connecti- cut, the majority leader, has called a meeting of the committee on commit- i tees for next Tuesday, the second day of the regular session. At that time it will be decided whether to increase the Rpublican memberships, and the |committce slates will be prepared. Although they may lose much com- ; mittee representation, the Democrats ; {are gratified that the qoutas fixed for jthree of the most powerful commit- | tees will remain unchanged under an jagreement between the parties in the j house. The ways and means commit- tee is divided 15 and 10, appropria- tions 21 and 14, and rules 8 and 4. ‘DIXIE BRAGGART IS HELD FOR SHOOTING Chicago, Nov. 27.—\4)—Morgan Gipson, 24, whose habit of “bragging about being from the south” finally friendship with Lim, was arrested to- day for shooting Miss Kohl and her sister, Mabel. ‘The sisters, seriously wounded, identified Gipson as the man who shot them last night at their apart- ment afier Florence had told him to leave. “When I told him I didn't want to said, “he got excited and pulled a pistol.

Hur- ley, assistant sceretary of war, is of- ten described. And the description is heard in the busy cubicles of the gray gran- ite war, state and navy building {where the country’s military affairs are administered by mufti-clad army men. Across the Indian-straight shou assistant war chief de- scended the mantle of war depart- ment responsibility when James W. Good lost his courageous fight for lite in Walter Reed hospital. Hurley is a lawyer by vocation. For more than two decades, the mili- tary has been his avocation. He came into the war department, by Hoover appointment, last spring and PATRICK J. HURLEY his advent has been likened to onc of those hearty breezes of the wide open spaces that have played so im- Portant a part in his life. Just under 50 now, the assistant secretary of war was born in the Choctaw nation, Indian Territory. He roamed the plains as cowpuncher took a fling at mining, and at 25 be came an attorney in Tulsa, Okila., where he has lived since. Has Friendly Temperament He carries his six feet odd with an erectness that testifies to his ac- tive life. He is easily one of the handsomest men in Washington pub- | lic life. An ability to make people like him. and to listen attentively and courte- ously to the troubles of anyone in his department—be the troubled one of high, low or intermediate rank—are commented upon as facets of his character brought out during tenure as assistant secretary of war. Colonel Hurley—he reached the grade of licutenant colonel during the world war and now is a reserve colonel—began his military service in 1902 as a captain of cavalry of the Indian Territorial volunteer militia. From 1914 to 1917 he was a captain in the Oklahoma national guard, Heroism Won D. S. C. During the world war his legal ability in negotiating the _ army agreements with the Grand Duchy of Luxemburg won him the distin- guished service cross, and a silver star citation was conferred upon him for a volunteer reconnaissance under heavy enemy fire. Colonel Hurley married Miss Ruth Wilson, daughter of Adm. Henry B. Wilson, United States navy, in 1919. & ere are three Hurley children— Patricia, Ruth and Wilson. If he has any hobby, it is flying and riding in airplanes. He is not a pilot, but he has mastered the knack of tooling a plane under certain con- ditions, Besides being an attorney, Colonel Hurley is president of the First Trust and Savings bank of Tulsa and a di- rector of the First National bank there.

Yet, according to Nurse Helen V. Griffin, 64 Pros- pect Avenue, Hackensack, New Jersey, it can be done—if you know how. We may not have broken legs to make us sad, but we have other troubles many of which fly away when we follow this good advice. “My patient,” says Miss Griffin, “being unable to move about by herself became very constipated. Many medicines in pill form were used with little or no results. Finally when we came home from the hospital I began the use of a tablespoonful of Nujol twice daily, later reducing to onea day. “Soon my patient became regular and comfortable, without any pin or discomfort. This of course gave her confidence in eating as much as her appetite required. Now she is happy and cheerful, since regularity has begun and continued with such little trouble. I could state many instances of excellent results from Nujol, but this is the most recent ” That’s what happens when you learn this easy and simple way to good health.
