MARIE KEEPS COOL, DESPITE GENSORING Prime Minister’s Aide Takes Over Duties as Official ‘ Spokesman on Trip. i By the Associated Press. | QUEEN MARIE'S TRAIN, EN, ROUTE TO DENVER, November 10. —Queen Marie is not disturbed at the thought that virtual censorship is to guide her conversations with ne paper men aboard her train, as an- nounced last night by Prof. ‘holas Petresco, who is representing the Rumanian prime minister on the tour. M. Petresco’s chief concern is| guarding against utterances by her ! malesty shich might have disturbing political significance at home, but Marle has undiminished confidence in her own ability as a diplomat and politician to handle delicate situations. Tha professor, however, advised cor- respondents aboard the train that he is to be the channel through which news of the roval family will reach the press. That function has been performed heretofore by Maj. Stanley Washburn, special aide to the Queen. Differences between various groups aboard the train were touched upon last night at a dinner intended as a compliment to Gov. Nellie Taylor Ross of Wyoming and attended by the Rumanian party and the American personnel. Washburn, however, 41d not attend. He said difficulty had been encountered in finding seats at the table for 21 guests and so he omit- ted himself. Arter . Ross had expressed her hope that the visitors had enjoyed seeing her State, which is about the | size of the kingdom of Rumania, Col. John H. Carroll, in charge of the train, explained that the railrdads over which Marie is traveling had made it possible for her to tour America. He pointed out that no one other than the railroads had con- tributed to the project.

OMAHA, November 10.—A *“sinis- ter motive” in the visit of Queen Marie to the United States, while Emma Goldman, deported Russian anarchist, is barred from entry to this country, Is seen by speakers at the national convention of hobos. A resolution oifered Ly John L. Jones, Kansas City, labor pastor, as- serted: “We view with alarm the or- ganized propaganda gaining in this democracy in favor of a monarchy by the parading of ‘Queen Marie, while | Soviet Russia 1s rejected.” Particularly offensive, the pastor de- clared, was the fact that raiiroads are furnishing Queen Marie with free transportation, while hobos are oblig- od to steal rides at the risk of jail. James 1'ads How, “milionaire hobo” and founder of the hobo organization, wanted to know “if we can't ask our t It Delays Action Censuring Visit hired man, Mr. Kellogg, to change things a little.” He opposed the reso- lution because no reference was made to the visits of the Prince of Wales and Crown Prince Gustavus Adolphus, and that it did not ask permission for | “every one” to enter the United States. At his suggestion the resolu- |tion was recalled to be made more | comprehensive. | | Similar treatment was given a roso- | |1ution urging that all vagrancy laws i be abo Such laws the resolu- tion described as “only the means of | getting economic servitude for a pe- rlod when labor can be used and ex- ploited without payment.” The res-! olution urged that all sheriffs, magis- | trates and judges be recalled when | found to have enforced such laws. | The hobo body did not find the reso- | lution comprehensive enough and tabled it temporarily.

CHICAGO, November 10 (#).—An incipient romance of nearly 4,000 years ago—a proposal of marriage by the widow of King Tut-ankh-Amen to a Hittite prince—was revealed today by H. H. Von Der Osten of the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago, who has returned from a vear of excavating among buried Hittite citles of Asia Minor. The Egyptian queen offered herself as a bridal prospect in a communica- tion to a Hittite king asking him it he had a son eligible to marry her. The scientist said the queen was very voung at the time, but did not give her age. The answer was not known, but Mr. Von Der Osten had a mass of manuscripts and inscriptions to de- cipher and these may throw further light on the affair. These relics of a powerful race or group of races, which mastered all of western Asia from the eighteenth to the twelfth centuries B. C. and long have been a puzzle to archeologists and explorers, are expected to throw considerable new light on pre-Chris- tian civilization. Mr. Von Der Osten, who covered more than 3,000 miles of Hittite ter- ritroy in an automobile, accompanied only by his wife, discovered 65 settle- ments in Asia Minor, against three which previously had been known. Inscriptions already transcribed by the Chicagoan indicate that the Hitt- ites were the allies of Troy in the Trojan_wars and also that they in- vaded Babylon 10 centuries before the abylonian conquest recorded - the Bible. Other writings led to e belief that the race did not spring n Armenia, as once believed, but e into their la <outh Russia. The ital was called Hattushish, but the exact location was not determined.
