130 WAR ORPHANS | INVITED O PARTY ®Get-Acquainted” Affair Will A Be Given by Legion Tuesday Night. Approximately 130 war orphans of the District of Columbia, scns and daughters of service men and officers who died during and since the World War, have been invited to a ‘“get-ac- painted” party Tuesday night at the | Washington Hotel by tne American Legion, through whose efforts many of them are receiving their education. The oldest of these war orphans is low 23 and the youngesi 10. A record of their addresses and guardians has been carefully compiled by the Legion | Committee on Education of War Orphans. The party Tuesday evening | is being arranged not oniy as a big “family” reunion, but also to enable the Legion workers to remew their WA Tiendship’s service. With the dedicaticn next year of the District of Columbia’s World War Me- morial, now being erected in West Po- tomac Park, interest centers more than ever on the children of the men whose memory the public will ncnor on that occasion. Project Progresses Kapidly. Education of war orphans, & move- ment initiated by the American through Maj. Gen. P. C. Harris, adju- tant general of the Army during the World War, has made rapid strides in its three years of action. From the Washington office a systematic legis- ! lative campaign has brought about scholarship aid in 15 States, although the District of Columbia 1s not repre- sented cn this list. The States offering this aid to war orphans are Utah, Connecticut, Maryland, Delaware, Vir- ginia, Kentucky, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Bouth Carolina, Arizona, Idaho, Vermont, North OCarolina and California, with several other States’ latures still in session. lans are now afoot to create inter- est in behalf of the District's World War orphans, and the Legion Commit- tee hopes by Fall many scholarshi will be available for them in the col- leges of the National Capital. Originally there were 136 District ‘Wwar orphans that might have had col- lege advantages had the plan been started earlier. At present there are 100 such orphans who might benefit from the friendly scholarship guidance. Under recently enacted legislation the President can now appoint from he war orphans of the country 40 adets to the Military Academy and 40 to the Naval Academy. D. C.

By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, May 30.—Mrs. Margaret | Summers, middle-aged widow, charged with polsoning four men, was identified today as the woman who married Stanley Korzen, a warehouse worker, seven months before he died in 1917. Investigation into Korzen's death, supposed to have been due to tuber- culosis, was ordered. Mrs. Summers had | been known to have had two other husbands. The last, Thomas Summers, was one of four men whose deaths were found to have been caused by poison. The identification of Mrs. SBummers as the former Mrs. Korzen was made by Mrs. May E. Bonczkowski, sister of Korzen. Mrs. Summers received insurance benefits after the deaths of the four men she is accused of poisoning. She at first denied having known Korzen. Mrs. Bonczkowski, who had gone to the county jall to look at the accused woman, then showed her a picture of Korzen. “Do you recognize him now?” she asked. “Yes,” sald Mrs. Summers. “He was one of my husbands.” She declined to make any further statement.
