+ WOMAN AIDS POOR BY ROBBING RICH Chinese Bandit Leader Is Head of Army Numbering Several Thousands. By the Associated Press. . PEIPING.—“Rob the rich; help the Ppoor.” So goes the slogan of China's ‘woman “Robin Hood.” Swooping down upon a prosperous village bank or holding up a train, she gathers loot enough to provide square meals for a few days in some ml village stricken by poverty or famine. “Marshal Chang,” the common people call her, and the title is not unwar- ranted, for several thousand followers obey her commands, it is reported. Her bandit army is well equipped with arms and ammunition bought from deserting soldiers of the Chinese civil war armies. Her Arrival Welcomed. Great ceremony attends her appear- ance in a village of poor people, for they know her arrival means the dis- tribution of either grain or money to the needy. “Marshal Chang” believes in adver- tising. Wherever she goes handbills appear with the slogans: rich: help the poor;” “Suppor cause of Marshal Chang;” “Marshal Chang is the salvation star of the poor people,” etc. Husband Slain by Robbers. Once this Chinese bandit Amazon Was a law-abiding citizen, living on a farm with her hu d and children. ‘They had a few cows, a donkey or two, chickens and ducks and were fairly prosperous. Then one night the Chang place was Tobbed and the husband murdered. The widow swore revenge, sold all her pos- sessions, turned bandit herself and be- gan her depredations. Military authorities have tried vainly to persuade her to give up banditry. She has refused alike offers of a “pen- sion” or to join her forces with some military organization. REVENUE OFFICES TO MOVE TOMORROW New Building to Be Occupied by Quarters for Income Taxes and Stamp Sales. ‘The local offices of the Internal Reve- Rue Bureau, for collection of income taxes, and sale of revenue stamps, ‘which has been located at 1422 Penn- sylvania avenue for years, will be moved tomorrow to the new Internal Revenue Building. They will be located in rooms 1025 to 1048, on the southwest corner of the first floor of the new building, near Twelfth and B streets. Oddly enough, with headquarters of the Internal Revenue Buresu for the Whole nation located in the Internal Revenue Bureau, the headquarters for the district including this city is not located here but in Baltimore, and is in charge of Galen L. Tait, collector of Internal Revenue for Maryland and the Digtrict of Columbia. The local office is in charge of Assistant Chief Field Deputy Ralph S. Nagle, ‘The local revenue office is moving into its new quarters, not only because of the improved facilities provided in the new Internal Revenue Building, but also because its old quarters are to be torn dov&i‘n next month to make way for a park. KING IS DELIGHTED BY AMERICAN’S GIFT Likes Ties, Presented by Late Am- bassador Moore, Better Than Any Others. MADRID (#).—King Alfonso, consid- ered one of the best dressed men in the world, has probably possessed thou- sands of neckties. But he is sald never to have had any he liked better or wore oftener than six given him by the late Alexander P. Moore, when the latter Wwas American Ambassador here, Ambassador Moore once saw some meckties he fancied and thought the King would like them. So he bought & half dozen and gave them to Don Al- fonso, as casually as he mi:ht. have done with any American friend. Some of the court oficials gasped. No Spaniard could have done such a thing. His gift to his King, were he of a rank permitting him to make one at all,. ““cled be much more costly and elab- orate. The experience pleased the King im- mensely. Nobody had ever given him 8ix neckties before—or dared to dream ©of doing so. NATIONAL P. T. A. LEADER IS ENTERTAINED HERE Members of Board of Managers of District Congress Are Hosts at Luncheon.

WOMAN ONLY 32 YEARS OLD LEADS DEMOCRATS IN KANSAS TOPEKA, Kans. (#).—A 32-year- old mother of three children is leading the Democrats of Kansas. Mrs, Carl V. Rice of Parsons, who succeeds John Wells as State party leader, already has 10 years of political experience behind her.

MEXICAN CATHOLICS SEEK LAW CHANGES Will Ask Congress to Amend Pro- visions They Claim Restrict Freedom of Church. Catholics in Mexico, according to the newspaper La Prensa, are organizing to present a petition to Congress for the amendment of those constitutional provisions which, they claim, restrict the freedom of the church. This movement was started in view of the fact that in September Congress will present & new line-up. Elections next month will sweep out the entire membership of the House of Representatives, while half the seats in the Senate will be disputed at the polls. Similar petitions in the past failed, when Chamber of Deputies turned them down for some reason or other. Catholics now are hopeful of better luck, believing that a change of Con- gressmen will bring about a change in g::lcy, especially as they think that sident Ortiz Rubio is more concilia- tory than Portes Gil. Persons close to President Rubio de- clare that whatever attitude he adopts Wwill be in accord with the liberal tradi- tions of the country favoring the sepa- ration of the church and state. It is added that since his youth Ortiz Rubio was an ardent supporter of the Liberal party’s policies tending to uphold the “reforma” laws and constitution of 1857, on which the religious provisions of the present Charta gna are based. Church authorities have warned the clergy to refrain from any participa- tion in the present campaign, which should be conducted exclusively by lay- men.
