Harper of Dade City, Florida, were united in marriage Monday afternoon, at 3 o'clock, at the home of the bride’s parents on William street, before mem- bers of the family and a number of friends. The home was profusely dec- orated with floor baskets of white asters, ferns and vases of! pink and white frangipanni. The wedding party stood before an - archway entwined with fern and} stephanotis. | Preceding the ceremony, a musical program was rendered, consisting of a violin solo by Al- fredo Barroso, accompanied by Gus Ayala, who payed “Schu-/ bert’s Serenade.” A vocal solo by Mrs. W. F. Collins, “Because”, by D’harde-} lot, accompanied by Mrs. Haydn Illingworth, who also played the traditional wedding marches and “My Heart At Thy. Sweet Voice” | from Sampson and Delilah were! sung during the ceremony. The bride entered with her fa-! ther by whom she was given in marriage, and was attended by her cousin, Mrs. G. C. Dayton, of Dade City. G. N. Goshorn, Jr., brother of the bride, served as Mr. Harper’s best man. Mrs. Dayton’s gown was fashioned of sky blue chiffon over matching taffeta with fitted bodice and long flared skirt fall- ing in graceful folds. It had a sweetheart neckline edged with a pleated band of the dress ma- terial and short puffed sleeves with fitted band. She wore a large picture hat of leghorn draped with blue chiffon band, and carried pink radiance roses fashioned into a nosegay tied with blue tulle. The bride wore white silk net over a double foundation of net and taffeta, with wide bands of chantilly lace inthe net forming her bodice and marking the hip line, with long flowing sleeves tied in“a puff at the wrist. The bodice «with its heart-shaped neckline was gathered into soft! fullness and girdled by a tight fitted waist line. Bouffant skirt was floor length. She also wore a finger tip length veil of illusion attached to a halo cap with a spray of Lilly of the Valley. The! traditional “something old” she wore was a yellow gold photo- graph locket worn by her mother when a bride. : Relatives Cond To Honor Mrs. Griffin Mrs. Mary M.

Y. lents, gression of any kind. Mr. Hull also roundly castigated European dictators for their ruthless at- tacks on small, practically de- fenseless states, intimating that might happen South of the Rio Grande unless unity is achieved. Most of the Latin American for- eign ministers present, paid lip service to this doctrine. But there were strong undercurrents of dissension. In many cases, South American economic infer- ests come into direct conflict with ours, and South American business was afraid it would get the short end of the stick if the Hull program were adopted in toto. On top of that, the Axis: powers have unquestionably :made serious inroads into Latin | America. Certain countries, not-! ably Brazil, have been _ largely | settled by Germans, and Hitler's! agents have been working for years to convert them to the Nazi ideology. All of South America is, of course, of Latin origin, | and Spanish and Italian influenc- es are strong. Italy is an active German ally, and Franco-dictat- ed Spain is Hitler’s passive ally. However, it looks as if the ma- jority of Latin American govern-! ments are genuinely afraid of Axis activity, and are determin- ed to remain Republics. So, at ; the end, they came at least half- | iway to agreeing with proposed U. S. policy. After endless hours | of talk, negotiation and concilia- tion, the 21 foreign ministers | present, agreed upon a three-; point policy of far-reaching sig- ‘nificance. As reported by J. C. Stark, AP man on the scene, the points provide: 1. The status of European possessions in this hemisphere is of vital concern to all the Re- publics, and if necessary they! will be temporarily taken over! and administered by the Repub- lics in order to safeguard contin- | ental security. This is a direct slap in the face to any ambition Hitler may have to seize English and French possessions in our part of the world, and amounts to Latin American avowal and support of the Monroe Doctrine. 2. An economic plan is to be prepared whereby relief is to be given to countries which have lost vital European markets. At the same time, an inter-American trading system is to be developed in order to prevent European states from enforcing unfair trade terms upon the American nations. = 3.. All the Republics will work together in fighting “fifth column” activities. Alleged abuse of diplomatic privilege by foreign + representatives is to be investi- gated. This is also a direct slap at Hitler—German consuls and other officials have been among the worst offenders, and have used their offices almost openly to promote trouble. Germans have boasted that it is within ‘their power to produce revolu- tions within half a dozen Latin American countries whenever de- sired. In all this the United States will be the leader. It will have ;to put up most of the money to back any trade, cartel economic plan, and if military | the ships, soldiers, airplanes and | guns. From a military point of view. Latin America is extremely weak, and so are most of the Re- publics from the economic point , of view. And that brings up a | question that is being increasin; ly asked these days: Is the Uni ed States embarked upon an im- perial policy? @ good guess is “yes”! We have always made a fetish of opposi-! tion_to imperialism—even as, at times, we have ruthlessly follow- .of conquest. And in. these dis- | cordant days, it may be that im- perialism is being forced upon us, whi we like it or not. Most experts are convinced that ‘we must maintain the status quo, - or a policy favorable to us, in Latin America, no matter what the cost.
