WEDNESDAY, MARCH 16, 1927. lITA GREY CHAPLIN Wife of Comedian Says She Must Go to Work to Pro- vide for Children. By the Ascociated Press. LOS ANGELES, March 16.—Foiled I by her wealthy screen star hushand in her recent fight to collect $4,000 a month temporary alimony, Lita Grey Chaplin turned toward the mercury lights of Hollywood again today for her livelihood. Announcing that she had been starved into the necessity of going back to work, the wife of Charles Chaplin, who has been living theo- retically penniless in her husband's 40-room mansion at Beverly Hills since her recent failure to extract an income from the comedian's alleged vast but mobile fortune, Mrs. Chaplin said last night she woul arn to the movies within two weeks. Mrs. Chaplin disclosed that she had been deluged with motion picture and vaudeville offers since the filing of her sensational suit for divorce, but at the outset had refused them. They included an offer of $2, week and royalties for the appe ance of her two children and he: self in a picture, she declared. Children Not to Play in Since the estr: vember Mrs. C on money raised by fri onds tives. The upkeep of the man which is given gt §3,000 a month, the accumalation ' of upaid forced her, she said, to go to work Mrs. Chaplin said her children will not be permitted to appear on the screen. Vaudeville offers were re- jected for the reason that a stage tour would take her away from them. Mrs. Chaplin stressed the fact that her return to pictures is not a signal of surrender in her fight for a share ons She announced her determination to “get what the children should have,” if it takes her “5 to 25 years to get it for them.” Assails His Attitude. “Mr. Chaplin can’t starve me out, though that seems his obvious inten- tion,” Mrs. Chaplin declared. “If he refuses to make any sort of provi- sion for the support and maintenance of the two babies, as he has done so far, then I can do only one thing and that is to return to work. “He has shown that I can't depend he is forced to do. He has shown not the slightest sign of interest in the welfare of the two babies he declares to care for so overwhelming- ly. There hasn’t been a word of in- quiry regarding their health since he left for New York. Neither has there been cven a mere postcard of remembrance to the children from him. He doesn't know whether they are starving or not and apparently he absolutely does not care a Jot, since he has failed to advance any- thing at all directly to maintain them or even provide them with food.” AUDITOR RESIGNS Accused Official Quits on Eve of Impeachment Trial. CHARLESTON, W. Va., March 16 (®).—John C. Bond, suspended State Auditor, who was scheduled to face impeachment proceedings before the West Virginia State Sepate this morn- ing, submitted his resignation to Gov. Howard M. Gore late yesterday. In a statement accompanying. his resignation, Bond set forth that ill health and insufficient finances would not_permit him to “engage in a trial of this character.” Bond was removed from office by Gov. Gore last October, following a hearing on charges of malfeasance in office. The resignation disposes of the im- peachment trial, but has no legal ef- fect on charges of embezzlement now pending against Bond. The criminal case against him is set for trial at the next term of court.

They have never conquered. The Christian Church conquered the Roman empire by mass civil Gisobedience. The primi- tive missionaries conquered the world for your Christ without a weapon.
