Bride Travels for Three Years
ToCatch Up With Moving Officer
Captain William Whaling and Wife Reunited Camp Mills
After Orders Shift Him Rapidly to Manla Then
Back to Alaska and Into Mexico

Whaling found only a message from
her husband explaining the mischance
and a cable telling of his safe arrival
in San Francisco, and asking her to re-
turn. She took the next ship, but it
wes several days before she could sail.
Reaching San Francisco at last, she
learned that Captain Whaling had been
assigned to post in Northern Alaska
She set out at once, only to be disap.
pointed again. BY the time she reached
the post Captain Whaling was on his
way to join General Pershing on the
Mexican border. Ice was in the Yukon
and navigation was closed. Mrs. Whal-
ing resigned herself to a lonely Alas
kan winter
Eventually she reached Ell Paso. BY
that time her husband had penetrated
far into Northern Mexico with Per.
shing's troops. 1t was reported that
they would be absent for months. Mrs
Whaling decided to visit relatives IN
Kansas City until her spouse attained
u fair degree Of stability.
They thought that moment had come
when he was ordered to a camp In
Ohio, and Mrs. Whaling started north
On reaching the camp she was told he
was at Camp Mills. They met to-day
in the company street there.

But Governors Scouts Ad.
nit That Brooklyn Is
Doubtful Quantity
Hope for Third Ticket
Believe Opposition to Execu-
tive Is Divided; Point
to War Record

The supporters Of Governor Whit
man, after a preliminary canvass of
New York and Bronx counties, said
yesterday that if there was opposition
to the Governor In either county among
the members of the State committee
and district leaders they were unable
to discover it. They expect to match
against detection in Brooklyn the solid
support Of the New York and Bronx
organizations.
These same political scouts admit
they do not know what will happen in
the primaries, as it is long while,
politically, vill September 3, but they
profess confidence in the ability of the
Governor to carry every assembly dis
trict in the two counties named.
With Brooklyn it is different. The
Whitman men admit Brooklyn is a
"bad" spot for them, but are confident
of getting more than half the votes in
the primaries. Their hope is based on
the belief that the opposite to the
Governor is divided-that ex-senator
Bennett will make good his threat to
run third ticket, cutting down the
vote that would go to one candidate,
If there were only one.
John j. Knewitz, leader Of the or
ganlzatlon IN the Bronx, Is IN the
Whitman camp. and told the Governor
on Friday that things were looking
, bright for him. Congressman Ber-
trand H. Smell, Of Potsdam, reported at
Republican state headquarters yester-
day that there was not much in the
reported opposition among farmers to
Governor Whitman.
"The Republican farmers in my part
of the state are going to vote the Re-
publican ticket, as usual" said Mr..
Smell. "In my judgment the thing that
is going to win for Governor Whitman
is the fact that he has helped the En-
pire State make a good war record.
If state official has been right on the
war-if he has shown zeal and results
in helping to hold up our end as a
state-the Republicans are going to
support him.
"That's about all the people are talk
ing about-the war. I've seen consid-
erable in the papers about the farmers
being hostile to Whitman. The farm
ers are like everybody else. Their
boys and relatives are in the war
They are for supporting che President
and they are for supporting the Gov
ernor. Little issues don't count in a
year like this. The great question the
candidates will have to meet this
year is:

MOST WORKING WOMEN
SUPPORT DEPENDENTS
Gentle Sex Becoming Main Pro-
viders for Families.

The majority of women wage
earners today are contributing
toward the support OF their fam
lilies, according to an investigation
made by the women's Trade Union
League.
In a protest issued by the league
in connection with the cost-of-liv-
ing survey which has been under
taken by the U. S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics. it is pointed out that
women are rapidly becoming the
chief support of the families, due
to war conditions.
The league asks that this fact be
taken into consideration by the ed-
justment boards. and that the mans
and woman's wage be computed ON
the same scale.
Most women wage earners have
others besides themselves to sup
port" the league declares. "and
only a few. relatively, like the few
detached men, have themselves alone
to consider.
Investigation has proved in New
York, Chicago and other large cities
that the proportion of women work.
ers with dependents runs up to 66
per cent. In the Bureau of Engrav-
ing and Printing the percentage was
found to be 70.1. In one case, out
