After airing their comestic difficul- ties in court, Col. and Mrs. Snowden | A. Fahnestock, socially prominent Newport, R. I, couple, today reached | la friendly agreement providing for | “joint custody” of their two children. | This was disclosed when Justice | Peyton Gordon approved the agree- ment in District Supreme Court and discharged a habeas corpus proceeding | brought by the wife to compel her husband to give her the custody D(f their daughters, Claire, 7, and Mary | Lee, 6. To Stay With Grandmother. It was understood the children will | remain at the home of their grand- mother, Mrs. Gibson Fahnestock, 2311 Massachusetts avenue, where they | were taken by Col. Fahnestock after, he removed them from a train in Union Station while they were en| route to New York City from Aiken, | !s.c. - It was expected Mrs. Fahnestock‘ would have free access to the house to visit the children. The question of which parent ls entitled to custody of the two girls n- will be finally decided when a di-| | vorce ‘suit filed by Mrs. Fahnestock | {m Newport is passed upon. In this | | suit she charged her husband with ! extreme cruelty and asked the court to award the children to her. Equity Petition Entered. After the wife had filed her habeas corpus petition, Col. Fahnestock countered with an equity petition asking the court to give him custody of the children. He asserted his wife had admitted she was infatuated | with “a certain man of prominence” |in Newport and that she was not a fit person to care for the girls. Mrs. Fahnestock answered his pe- tition today, admitting that she met and became acquainted with this cer- tain man of prominence during August, 1934, but added that during the Summer of 1934 she met many | men of prominence. Mrs. Fahnestock | admitted she had played golf and danced with this man in Newport | and has seen him a number of times since, but denied any improper con- duct.

The Union dead nearest to the spot | were from an Illinois regiment, but | | the position of the grave makes it unlikely that the girl fell in the same sermish. She may have been the | wife or the sweetheart of some Union | soldier. She may have been a harum- | scarum tom-boy from an Illinois | (farm. She may have been a sordid | ! camp follower. | "In any event, she kept her secret | {to the end and now it will be kept | forever. Apparently she had been a: | member of one of the regiments dis- | embarked at Pittsburgh Landing, a ! half mile up the river, the day be- | fore. She had marched up the Tennessee Wwith frightened recruits from the Midwest, facing their baptism of fire. She had been caught | |by a bullet, which from its position | may have been through her heart, in the Confederate advance the next day. | She had been thrown unceremoniously in a grave near the site where gen- erations of Indians before her had been buried. Perhaps one of the eight men buried with her was the sweetheart she had followed to the wars. She will sleep to the end of time be- side him—two “Unknown Soldiers.” One sister she had in the Union Army at Shiloh. When the bodies of | the dead soldiers were placed in the, National Cemetery years before, one other skeleton of a woman, also un- known, was found. She also fills a nameless grave. | COMMITTEES NAMED BY Y’S MEN'S CLUB' Appointments Announced by Leo George, President of Organization.

Changing World Six-Shooter Politics in Europe Brings About International Pacts. BY CONSTANTINE BROWN. HE six-shooter has played an | important role in the Euro- pean political developments of 1934. Within a year the fol- lowing European leaders were assassinated: Jean Duca, Rumania’s prime minister; Peiracki, the Polish minister of interior; Gen. von Schleicher, Capt. Roehm and other anti-Hitler leaders: Dollfuss, Austria’s | diminutive dictator; King Alexander lof Yugoslavia and Barthou, the for- eign minister of France. and finally, a few weeks ago, Kirov, Stalin’s right- | hand man. It is a sign that the world is changing when none of these crimes, which only a few years ago would have brought about either civil wars or international confla- grations have produced only fear and good newspaper stories. Po- litical murders nmever have any other aim but to create internal or external confusion. Queerly 'of the pistols’ shots which were heard all over Europe were of a becalming instead of an inflamatory nature. The |leaders in the principal countries | hastened to come to an understanding with each other in order to prevent another world catastrophe. The sound of the shots fired at Sarajevo 20 years ago was still in their ears. The news- papers in the interested countries re- | ceived orders to play down the other- wise sensational stories and their po- litical implications, and the telephone and telegraph wires between the va- rious capitals were kept hot day and night, the foreign ministers and their collaborators trying to figd formulas to solve problems which less than a year ago were considered insoluble. Mussolini Wins. The Italian-French agreement reached in Rome this week is probably the most spectacular of all. It proves how well a country like Italy can do when its desire for peace is backed by a determined national policy and an efficient army and navy. Mussolini has known what Italy wanted in the international field ever since he took over the government of his country and combining a certain amount of sabre rattling with the chirping of the | peace bird obtained everything he de- sired and a little more. France's gift to Italy of a strip of land of some 400 square miles on the border of the Red Sea, and a cer- tain amount of centrol over the Djibuti-Addis Ababa Railway is a tre- mendous and unexpected victory for Mussolini’s diplomacy. The strip of land from the French Somaliland gives the Italians effective control over the Bab-el-Mandeb Straits on the Red Sea and is likely to be of real importance to them in the course of the next few years. What will happen to Laval when he presents these agreements to the French Chamber is dificult to say. The agreements will have to be ratified; France cannot afford to throw them down and antagonize Italy again. But Laval may have to quit—an excuse easily can be found. Of course, Italy’s gain does mot mean in the least France's loss.

She could not buy cotton in | America. Her scientists got busy and | discovered a process making “ersatz” | cotton from the bark of trees growing in Germany. The results are quite satisfactory. The experiments did not | cost the German government much, | { but the installation of the factories | | was quite expensive. The government | plans to give emrloyment to some | 500,000 people in these plants. No- | body can expect Germany, its leaders say. to junk all these factories and put on the unemployment rolis the workers later on. When these plants will go full speed ahedd, there will be only little inducement for Germany to buy cotton abroad. ‘The same thing is happening in Central and Southeastern Europe | where the different countries, lacking exchange because their export busi- | ness is at a standstill, had to create industries which etherwise would have never been created. Rumania Solves Problem. ‘The example of Rumania is typical. | ‘That country used to depend on Ger- | many and Great Britain for its cloth. Now it is manufacturing every piece | of cloth used by its inhabitants. It is | not as good, nor as well made as the British or the German material, but it | costs less and can be obtained for local currency. America used to supply a good deal | | of its rolling stock, such as locomotives | and coaches. Rumania is manufactur- hng these, too. Here again, the locomo- | | tives are not as powerful and efficient | as those supplied—on credit—by the | Baldwin factory. But they are all right for the purpose and the Ruman- ian authorities hope that in due course of time their engineerS and workmen will reach a degree of efficiency which will enable them to declare themselves independent of the highly industrial countries. As a reward for the recognition of Manchoukuo by the Republic of El Salvador, Emperor Pu Yi (Kangte) has ordered from El Salvador 1,600 pounds of coffee to be used exclusively in the imperial establishment. This is likely to be about the only coffee business the two countries will ever transact, since the population of Manchoukuo is drinking tea. = REVIEW OF $60,000 LEVY BRIDGE COST IS SOUGHT The Washington Railway & Elec- tric Co. has asked the United States Supreme Court to review the recent action of the 'istrict Court of Appeals in upholding assessments amounting to about $60,000 that were levied against the company by the District Commissioners as part of the cost of work done on the Anacostia Bridge. The W. R. & E. is one of the companies that merged into ihe new Capital Transit Co. & year 8go. The petition asks for a writ of cer- tiorari. In the original trial of the case in District Supreme Court the com- pany won. The Commissioners, how- ever, appealed and the District Court of Appeals several months ago re- versed the lower court.

Despite the fog which for four days held every airmail and transport air- plane in the eastern United States on the ground and delayed all forms of transportation, units of the Second Bombardment Wing, Army Air Corps, began a general movement ‘o Florida on.Wednesday, in preparation for the first field trials of the new General Headquarters Air Force, it was learned | here today. While every airline plane east of the Alleghenies remained on the ground Wednesday, the first units of the Second Wing began to move through the heavy fog and by Wednes- day night the advance had reached Pope Field, North Carolina, according to belated reports to Washington. Today more than 100 bombardment, pursuit and transport airplanes of the wing were beginning their concentra- tion at Pan-American Airways Air- port, Miami. They will be joined by a 260,000-foot dirigible of the 19th Alrship Squadron, attached. The Wing is to leave Miami January 13 for the Tampa area.

Main highways were blocked with ice and swirling water. meadow lands were flooded and whole communities were threatened as the January thaw that sent New England rivers on a bender reached its fourth day. At Littleton, N. H., a bus load of 25 school children escaped death in the Connecticut River by just two in- utes. The bus had hardly crossed the old Waterford Bridge when an ice jam broke and threw a barrier of ice cakes 10 feet deep along the Littleton- feet. In the middle of the Connecticut, at | the ice blocks stood 30 feet high. SHIPPING MOVES AGAIN, By the Associated Press, NEW YORK.
