By the Associated Press. . LOS ANGELES, June 23.—The Ex- aminer today says in .a copyrighted story that Mae Murray, stage and film star, and her husband, David M'Divani, who holds the title of Prince of Georgia, are the parents of a son born 16 months ago. The newspaper says the news of the birth had been suppressed because of the fear that it might affect Miss Murray's career. The newspaper quoted M'Divani as follows: “He was born right here in Los An- geles and has been here ever since. We had thought to keep the fact & secret from the world because of the effect it might have. Also, in Europe we do not publish such things to the world. 2 “Several of our friends knew of the baby's existence, but they have respect- ed our confidence. I have taken him about with me becanse few knew me and I felt safe from recognition. “My wife is a motion picture star and many people think actresses should not have children. She has obtained a very good contract for a long vaudeville tour. I am still apprehensive of the effect upon her work when it becomes generally known that we have a child.” M'Divani and Miss Murray were.mar- ried In June, 1926, in Beverly Hills. OBREGON SAIb TO PLAN VISIT TO U. S. IN FALL Tour Might Include Europe After Election to Presidency of Mexico July 1. MEXICO CITY (#).—With the elec~ tion of Gen. Alvaro Obregon as Presi- dent a foregone conclusion, the only is- in Mexico on Sunday, July 1, are the personal political ambitions of rival candidates in congressional, guberna- torial and state legi ve races. Most of the candidates for all offices are Obregon nuggomn, so that it is accepted that Obregon partisans will dominate both the Federal Congress and state governments., In fact, they already do. ‘With Obregon the only presidential candidate, the voting is expected to be light. Not much public interest is shown. Four years ago, when President Calles was elected, about 1,500,000 votes were announced to have been cast, Calles being credited with 1,200,000. The population of Mexico is estimated at about 15,000,000. Gen. Obregon has been at his home near Capeme, Sonora, for some weeks and is expected to remain there until after elections. He will probably re- turn to Mexico City, travel some about the republic and maybe make a trip to the United States and Europe before | his inauguration on December 1. STOP RADIUM TAX.

LONDON, June 23.—The strain of London’s welcome has begun to pall on Miss Amelia Earhart and there were indications today that perhaps she has let her days become too crowded. Miss Earhart slept today until nearly noon and upon awakening canceled all her engagements for the day except a luncheon as the guest of Mrs. Alanson B. Houghton, wife of the American Am- bassador. Friends of Miss Earhart remarked that she had not been holding up well to the fast social gait exacted of her. The Houghton luncheon was attended only by the embassy staff and Mrs. Frederick Guest, Miss Earhart's backer. Early today Willlam Stultz and Louls Gordon, pilot and navigator, fiew from Croydon to Manchester, where they placed a wreath on the grave of Sir John Alcock, first fiyer to cross the Atlantic. The three American flyers will return to the United States aboard the 8. S. Roosevelt on June 28. London’s newspapers, which dis- played a fancy for Miss Earhart in fly- ing costume, are demonstrating their approval of her in conventional fem- inine attire. Her visit to the Ascot races yester- day was the occasion for pictures of all sorts in this morning’s papers, all of them however featuring her new clothes. ‘Will Visit Chicago.
