—T ~ -vertisement, FAMILY SCARS HEAL ASRS, MUCORMIK UES SERIOUSLY Recovery of America’s Richest Woman Doubtful; Recon- ciled With Children Chicago, August 10.—(?)—Mrs. Edith Rockefeller McCormick, daughter of John D. Rockefeller, Sr., and successor to the late Mrs. Potter Palmer as arbiter of Chicago society, lies seriously ill in an exclusive Gold Coast hostelry whither she went a few weeks ago when financial adver- sities caused her to close her castled stone mansion. America’s richest woman, as she ‘was oft’ times called, was said to be in no immediate danger but recovery was regarded as doubtful. Her illness, the serious nature of which has been revealed during the last few days, resulted in a general reconciliation with her estranged children. Her divorced husband, Harold Fowler McCormick, Harvester king, was reported en route to her bedside from the Pacific coast. A lavish patron of the arts, Mrs. McCormick permitted neither her duties as the leader of Gold Coast society, nor her indulgence in such hobbies as psychology, literature, and the collection of rare manuscripts and Oriental rugs, to interfere with the development of her business ‘in- stinct and ability. Fortune Has Shrunk Before economic conditions made inroads on her fortune—and her ill- ness wes reported to have been caused by endeavors to meet declin- ing real estate and stock market val- ues—Mrs. McCormick was active in the management of one of Chicago's Jargest real estate firms. Under her Girection, scores of subdivisions, many of them planned for persons of modest incomes and others designed for the ultra rich, were conceived and sold. Maternal estrangements resulted from the marriage of all her chil- dren. Mathilde married Max Oser, a Swiss riding master, in 1923. The resulting breach between mother and daughter was not healed until 1931. Mrs. Oser is reputed coming from Cherbourg, France, to be with her mother. And her son, Harold Fowler Mc- Cormick, Jr., failed to obtain im- mediate maternal sanction when he was wed to Fifi Stillman, mother of his college chum, and divorced wife of the New York banker. Lately, however, Mrs. McCormick has receiv- ed the former Mrs. Stillman, Muriel at Bedside Muriel incurred ~~‘-rnal displeas- ure when she married Major Elisha Dyer Hubbard of Connecticut last year. But this breach, too, was heal- ed by Mrs. McCormick's illness and the major and his wife arrived in Chicago but a few days ago. After his divorce from Mrs. Mc- Cormick in 1921, Harold McCormick married Ganna Walska, opera aspir- ant, whom he sought to direct to fame. This union resulted in divorce. Mrs. McCormick had planned to visit her father, John D., Sr., this fall. She had been estranged from him for many years. Her brother, John D., Jr. was a visitor at her home a few weeks ago. Thus,. in illness, have been healed the many family estrangements which have characterized the latter years of America’s richest woman— for it is said that despite huge losses She still is entitled to that designa- tion. Fargo Student Is Attacked by Yeggs Fargo, Aug. 10.—()—Slugged and stabbed by two yeggs Tuesday night while hew as on his way home, Hart- Jey Eckstrom, 21, Agricultural college student, is in a Fargo hospital in a semi-delirious condition — suffering tromw ounds and shock. Eckstrom was on his way home from. the Kappa Sigma Chi fraternity house when he was attacked by two men at the Great Northern tracks, less than half a block from his home.

The tentative program called for a speech by President Hoover in Franklin D. Roosevelt's own state of New York and another in New Eng- land, possibly Boston. Victory in the entire strategic sec- tion was predicted by G. O. P. lead- ers as they scanned the acceptance speech Hoover will make Thursday night. To Senator Hebert of Rhode Island, an opponent of prohibition and eastern campaign manager for the Republicans, President Hoover's much-awaited reference in that speech to prohibition is “satisfac- tory.” Hebert added that the reference would “back the Republican resub- mission plank.” The tentative plans for the presi- dent’s eastern speeches, probably after mid-September, mean, said Re- publican campaign managers, that they intend an aggressive drive in the region from which Democrats hope their pledge for repeal will draw many votes. Chairman Everett Sanders, arriv- ing from Chicago to attend the Hoover notification ceremonies, ex- pressed optimism. “I don’t want to go into predictions as to states and sections,” Sanders told newspapermen as he left the Union station, “but you can go as strong as you like in predicting that Mr. Hoover will be reelected by a large majority.” Byrd Is Appointed To Democratic Post New York, August 10.—()—Former Governor Harry F. Byrd of Virginia has been selected as chairman of the executive finance committee of the Roosevelt-Garner campaign, James Farley, chairman of the Democratic national committee, announced Wed- nesday.

He was here Wednesday attending | the convention of the International Apple Growers’ association. Farley also formally announced selection of Evans Woolen of In- dianapolis as chairman of the na- tional finance committee, which al- ready had been announced informal- ly by the Indiana Democratic chair- man in Indianapolis. Byrd's com- mittee will be subordinate to Wool- en's and the personnel will be an- nounced later. Daniel J. Tobin, Indianapolis, was named chairman of the labor com- mittee.

The meteorologist needs the long, fine, sensitive hair for a ling hydrograph, an instru- ment for registering humidity changes from hour to hour. The hair of a brunette is too coarse, he said, In former days the weather- man had little difficulty finding waist-long blonde hair, and with the far-sightedness of a prophet this particular meteorologist laid in a good supply when women were abandoning long hair for the bob, but it is now exhausted.
