Says ssWhite Collar Men
Are Flocking to Farms
Agency Manager Declares, How
ever, Few Ex-Soldiers Are
Quitting CITY

W. E. Quinn. general sales manager of
E. A. Strout Farm Agony, said yester-
terday thatthe present depression in in
dustriai lines which has caused a
wholesale laying-off of employees has
resulted in new back to the farm
movement. He said, however, that of
the large numbers VINO have made in
quiries recently about farms very few
have been former service men.
Fully 20 per cent more city. men are
going back to the farm this year than
last" said Mr.. Quinn. I'VE receive
thousands of inquiries concerning
farms every day, and as startling as it
may seem, fully rs per cent of these in
quiries are from white colIared' city
men, whereas in past years less than 25
per cent of these inquiries came from
city men.
Very few ex-service men have made
inquiries concerning farms. The most
OF the requests for information about
locating farms come from clerks, fac
tory workers and office men. With
this general exodus we have urged our
agents all over the country to buy
small farms and to beat down prices as
low as possible, so that these unem-
ployed men may be taken care of. If
we succeed in placing enough men on
farms we will increase production and
incidentally relieve the congestion of
the city for those not qualified to take
care of farm

The ceremony will be performed by

About ten years ago Taylor married
Mrs. Grace Gordon, a widow with an

good to Isabelle and never leave her"
Soon after her mothers death Misc
Gordon was seriously i'll, and Taylor
passed much of his time nursing his
stepdaughter.
The announcement of the coming
marriage was made by Miss Gordcn's
grandmother
'I know that it is unusual for girl
to marry her stepfather," the grand
mother said, "but if they love each
other is there really any great differ
ence? I am positive it was my daugh-

should take place, although she did not
say so in so many words"

Women Get Headquarters

Mrs o. H. P. Belmont has given
$51,5 to the National Women's party
for the purchase of national headquar-
ters in Washington, it was announced
here yesterday.
The building selected for the head
quarters is the old Brick Capitol. op-
posite the present home of the ma
tional Legislature. 1t was completed
in 1916 to house Congress until the
structure destroyed by the British in
the burning of Washington could be
replaced, and served for that purpose
until 1919.
The National Womens party pur-
poses to establish in their new head
quarters not only their executive Of
fees, but a hostess house for the en-
tertainment of distinguished foreign
women, a legislative reference bureau,
and social center. A club will be
maintained offering to its members
sleeping and writing rooms, library
and private rooms for entertaining and
conference.

the persons who four years ago advo-
Gated the Gary system in our public
schools and whe contributed largely

1t IS the same crowd that is now back
OF the 'Cealition-Fusion' movement by
which these moneybund representatives
seek TO defeat Mayor Hylan for re-
election. The only difference is that
because four years ago their names
were too badly damaged to be of fur
ther political use, these money -bund-
ers this year hide behind the women's

Neither Hirshfeld nor the Mayor has
yet answered the facts that were pre-
sented in the report, or refuted them.

Secretary DENLY Orders Vessels
to Mexican Port.
Authority to Use Necessary Power Is
Given In Event of Possible
Disturbances.

Washington-Two United States
gunboats, the Sacramento and the
Cleveland, have been ordered to Tam.
pico as a precautionary measure in the
event disorders develop.
Upon the strength of information
furnished us by the State department
regarding conditions resulting from the
suspension of shipments of oil and the
consequent unemployment, the Navy
department has sent two gunboats
there to be ready for possible disturb.
ances requiring their attention." said
Secretary of the Navy DENLY.
The gunboats have their orders to
station themselves outside the three
mile limit at Tampico and there await
developments" he added. 'They have
full authority to take whatever steps
are necessary for the protection of
American property. 1t is simply a pre-.
%cautionary measure.
There are 1913 men aboard the Sacra.
mento and 265 aboard the Cleveland,
but they are carrying four and five
inch guns" 4&
Information which prompted the
Navy department to this step came
from the American consul at Tampico
via the State department. Obviously
those reports pictured the situation as
a result of the oil companies contro
yersy with the Mexican government
over the 100 per cent export tax. The
companies have protested vigorously
On June 80 the shipment of oil was
stopped, presumably as a protest
against the export tax. Reports from
the Mexican fields have it that the I'M
employment question is becoming ser
ious. Feeling is running particularly
high against the American companies
because of the general impression thai
the Americans are alone in this discon
t%inuance of operations
