GLORIA SWANSON'S NEW BABY A GIRL “Just Like Her Mother,” Says Michael Farmer, Rich Irish Hushand. By the Associated Press LONDON, April 6.—Gloria Swanson | and her husband, Michael Farmer,| wealthy Irish sportsman, were getting acquainted today with a new daughter, born last night at their home on Farm | street, in the fashionable Mayfair sec- | tion of London. The film actress and the baby were both well, Mr. Farmer said. The baby | was born a few hours after the parents had moved into their new home from | the hotel where they had been living since they came to London, several weeks 8go. It is Miss Swanson’s second daughter. Her first child, Gloria, daughter of her second husband, Herbert Somborn, film executive, ‘of Chicago and California, was born 10 years ago. She also has an_adopted daughter. She and Farmer were secretly mar- ried at Elmsford, N. Y., last August Their wedding was not announced until November 6, when it was dis- closed by the officials who issued the license and performed the ceremony. They had another ceremony ‘Yuma, Ariz., on November 9, after Miss Swanson's decree of divorce from the| Marquis de la Falaise de la Coudraye, | her third husband, became final. Miss Swanson’s first husband was Wallace Beery, motion picture actor. “She is a fine baby, with blue S, like her mother, and dark hair” the proud father told a group of friends who called to congratulate him. “We have not decided what to call her, but, as she is like her mother, she may be named Gloria. My wife stood the ordeal bravelyand could not be better. ‘The house on Farm street just oc- cupied by the Farmers was rented from Viscountess Furness, the former Mrs. Thelma Morgan Converse, daughter of Harry Hays Morgan, former American consul at Buenos Aire: AGRICULTURE BILL READY FOR SENATE Conference Report Strikes Out Ban on All Department Pay Fncerases. The conference report on the Agricul- | tural Department appropriation bill, containing an agreement which would rmit normal salary promotions, but‘ would retain in modified form the re- striction on filling vacancies during the | coming fiscal year, will be called up in the Senate for ratification within a few | days by Senator McNary, Republican, of Oregon. This is the first of the annual supply bills to reach the conference stage and the decision on this measure is expected to be followed in the other appropria- 5 tion bills. \ The promotion clause, which the con- ferees struck out, would have prevented any salary Increases within classification grades or reallocations. The other Clause confined new appointments to essential cases and required the written approval of the President. The con- ferees changed the wording of this lat- ter section. —e INTERIOR BILL IS CUT $5,000,000 IN SENATE Subcommittee Completes Processi of Reducing Estimates 10 Per Cent. A Senate subcommittee yesterday com- eted the task of cutting the Interior | rtment appropriation bill 10 per cent below the amount allowed by the House, reducing it from $50,000,000 to $45,000,000, in accordance with the in- structions of the Senate. | The action of the Interior subcom- | mittee, however, must be passed on by | the Senate Appropriations Committee at & meeting set for & o'clock this | afternoon, before the revamped bill is | brought back to the Senate.

Opposing counsel will be heard for one hour each Friday, after which the committee will again go into executive session to attempt to reach a decision.

SALE OF LOS ANGELES SIDETRACKED BY PROBERS House Naval Committee Decides Not to Take Proposal Up Publicly for Awhile. By the Associated Press For the time being, the House Navai Committee decided yesterday not to take up publicly the idea of letting the Navy sell the airship Los Angeles—a familiar sight to thousands. Instead, it directed Chairman Vinson to discuss the question with the Navy to ascertain what proposition it would consider. i The Navy hopes to sell the Los An- geles and use the money to enlarge ' | | the Macon, sister ship to the Akron | Unless the Macon is enlarged, Navy officials have told the committee, a new German vessel now being built will be larger thamk the Akron and the Macon, now the biggest in the world.

Ever just and merci- | ful, our friend and protector, we called | him the Great White Father. | No provision was made for the In-| dians in the treaty of peace. Jubilant with their victory over the British, the Americans pushed ever westward into Indian territory. Fear sprang into be- ing in the Indian mind, fear of ex- tinction. Peace, peace, counseled the |old_chiefs. ‘We are outnumbered,” said Corn- planter. “They are as numerous as the |sands of the sea.” “War!” answered the young war-| ar for our very lives, our right Incited by the French and British to the north of them, they raided and plundered their former allies.

Washington gave us peace by three treaties, Fort Stanwix, Fort Har- | mar and in 1794 Canandaigua. By the terms of these the Indians agreed to make war no more upon the people of | the United States, and in return all the lands which they then possessed | were secured to them for their free until such time as they should choose to sell to the people of the United States.

They were created more through fear of the Indian and the desire to get rid of him and keep him at peace at any price than as an act of justice. In New York they are a wonder to the curious and an expectant haven of hope to many speculators.” The highest of State and Federal courts have upheld this fact.
