ENVOY TONORWAY ARRIVES, IS MUM Mrs. Harriman, Watched Over by U. S. Consul, Gives Away No Secrets. B5 the Associated Press. BERGEN, Norway, June 28.—Mrs. J. Borden Harriman arrived in Norway today to take up her new duties as United States Minister, reserving a diplomatic silence. The American Consul at Bergen saw to that. Norwegian newspaper men asked the new Minister if the United States was planning to increase its immigra- tion quotas. The Consul, Maurice P. Dunlap, hastily intervened to say Mrs. Harri- man could not give an opinion on the matter. ‘The Bergen Afternposten, comment- #ng on the incident, declared that “Mrs. Harriman seems to be strictly Instructed not to give positive state- ments.” Mrs. Harriman, the second American woman to occupy such a diplomatic post, was scheduled to arrive in Oslo tonight. The new Minister's frankness gave State Department officials a start only five minutes after she took the oath of office May 15 in Washington. Then an interviewer asked the Wash- Ington and New York society woman 1f she expected to negotiate a recipro- eal trade treaty with Norway, “Oh, that's already been done,” Mrs. Harriman replied quickly. The public was not supposed to know of such negotiations at this stage of the proceedings, and a State Department press aide interrupted to emphasize the point that “we have only been exploring the matter thus far.” CITY NEWS IN BRIEF.

OAKDALE, Tenn,, June 28.—Harold Ruffner, 23, was ready to call on the Chancery Court today for a divorce from his 14-year-old child wife, charg- ing her with “cruel and inhuman treatment.” Alma, married when she was 12, said she would contest the complaint. Her attorney, Lee Jeffries, said both father and mother sought custody of their baby, born last December. The: case was Tennessee’s second “child bride” divorce suit. Dorothy Warren of Union City, & bride at 12, was granted a divorce from Willie Faulk, who ran way with her to Kentucky when he was 13. She charged desertion. The decision was handed down in April. Jeffries, who said he would file his demurrer to Ruffner's complaint be- fore Chancellor A. H. Wallace today, said the action might delay formal hearing on the case until Wednesday.

RICHMOND, June 28—Two more Virginia enterprises have indorsed the roadside beautification movement by ordering their sign boards off the rural highways, it was announced here to- day. One of these is Natural Won- ders, Inc., operating the “Caverns of Melrose,” in Rockingham County. The | other is in the Princess Anne Hotel, in | Fredericksburg. Removal of sign boards advertising the “Caverns of Melrose” has been directed by E. M. Brown, president of the operating company. Notice qf this was sent by Brown to Mrs. Laird L. Conrad, chairman of Rockingham and Page Counties, Associated Clubs of Virginia for Roadside Development, and was in response to efforts directed by her. 2 Notice of the Princess Anne Hotel's renunciation of rural roadside signs was in a letter from G. M. Harding, president and general manager, to Mrs. George Sloan of Warrenton, State chairmain of the Associated Clubs. “I have canceled all contracts on my boards located outside of the cor- porate city limits,” Harding’s letter says. “To date six have been elim- inated entirely, and as contracts ma- ture all others will be promptly re- moved.” Mrs. Sloan has also received a letter from Edsel Ford, automobile manu- facturer, saying that it is “the policy of the Ford company” not to utilize boards outside of towns or cities, These indorsements are in line with the movement of the Associated Clubs of Virginia for Roadside Development to bring about the removal, by legis- lative action and otherwise, of all unsightly objects along the rural high- ways of this State. Already every county has been or- ganized, complete surveys have been made and more than 40,000 Virginia women have been enlisted in the cause.
