Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, September 21.—Charles Allowance onyour old suite of furniture deaucted from the regular marked price. Returns on Rotterdam. Mr. Hughes returned on the steam- ship Rotterdam of the Holland-Ame: can Line, which docked yesterday morn- ing at Hoboken. He declined to discuss naval arma- ments or other international questions further than to comment briefly upon the progress of the World Court. “The court,” he said, * the most important of all undertakings for the purpose of peace. . It has been all I cxpected, and mofe. It is a great|? privilege to be connected with the enterprise.” The announcement of Mr. Hughes' cupport of Mr, La Guardia carried with it some comfort to his advisers. This was not because of an apprehension that he might do otherwise than in- dorse him, because he had already ac- cepted the honorary chairmanship of the campaign committee of Frederick n. Cou .

Harbord, when he served formal notification of his nomination upon Mr. La Guardia last Friday evening at Town Hall Ge people are inclined to designate Maj. Ta Guardia as soclalistic because he is & brunette, short of stature and comes of Latin origin. On the other hand, he continued, if the candidate were tall and blond he would be called merely “an independent thinker.” Mr, La Guardi» expressed his pleasure upon hearing of Mr. Hughes' statement. Answering a question regarding the effect of Mr. Hughes' professional ad- vocacy of a higher subway fare on behalf of the Interborough before the | & United States Supreme Court, Mr. La | § Guardia said: p “The fact that Mr. Hughes has repre- cented a company seeking a higher ; fare does not figure in this campaign at all and will not affect it one way or the other.
