URGE FIXED NAVY PROGRAM
Members Of Navy League, in Session
at Washington, Will Try to In.
f1uenee Congress.

Washington. April 10.-Wanted-a
navy program. This was the theme
of the annual convention of the Navy
League of the United States, which
held the first of it's three-day sessions
here this afternoon.
The convention was called to order
by Vice-President Henry H. Ward, who
sounded the keynote of the gathering.
Mr.. Ward told his auditors that it was
important that congress be persuaded
into laying down fixed naval program
for long term Of years. Such a pro-
gram, he said, was not only in the
interest of real efficiency and economy.
but was also in the interest Of main
tanning an adequate navy.
Perry Belmont then addressed the
convention, urging the necessity Of
creating council of national defense
and begging members Of the league to
use their best efforts toward getting
such measure through congress.
A new feature of the activity Of the
Navy league was the admission Of
prominent southerners to the govern
ing board of directors. Gov. Emmett
O'Neal of Alabama was among those
whose nomination for membership In
the board of directors was acted upon
favorably today.

NEW YORK. Nov. 27.-Ten years of

kiss or two from a wife who still
assumes her maiden name, is situa-
tion which the courts are asked to
end for George Lester Larry and Lii
liam D. Post Miss Post asks for an
annulment of marriage.
Their story, as told by Miss" Post
and corroborated in his answer by Mr..
Larry, began with an elopment on
November 1s, 1903, when Rev. Rich
ards Hartley married them in his
home Both were young and agreed
not to live together until each be-
came of age and they had the full
consent of their parents Mrs Larry
was still Miss Post to her husband
and to her family, TO whom she went
directly after the ceremony.
Miss Port was IS years old and Mr.
Larry 20. He continued in business as
a clerk in Jersey City, it is said, and
she lived with her parents there until
both were of age. What happened
during the Intervening years is not
disclosed in the complaint or answer,
but they never had a second ceremony.
In his answer the husband agrees
that the marriage was a secret one
although none the less binding Miss
Post says: Il thought at the time
that marriage ceremonies between
residents of New Jersey performed In
New York were not legally binding"
