MILLIONAIRE Of Is
DENIES HE'SFATHER
Disputes Parentage Of Baby In
sSuit Against Thirty-Year-
Old Wife.

DETROIT. April 22.-If there Is
any justice in the world the stain
will be removed from the parentage
OF my little girl" says Mrs. Madeline
Eeals Corby. the wife of Thomas w.
Corby. Crosse Point millionaire, who
Is asking for an annulment OF their
marriage. and who alleges he Is not
the father of Marie Theresa Corby.
eighteen months old.
The suit of the seventy-six year
old millionaire and his thirty-year-
old wife features the centuries old
drama of youth and age. pre-nup-
tial separation agreement and the
disputed parentage of child. 1t
shows. too. some OF the remote con-
sequences of the war which on the
death of Mrs. Corby's first husband.
Maurice Beals. left her stranded In
the country, unable to get back to
her relatives in Belgium.
MARRIED IN 1918.
Maurice Beals was a young Bel
gisn contractor who had made De-
;roit his home. In the course of q
business transaction he met Mr.. Cor
by and in connection with this tran
saction the Crosse Point millionaire
called at the Bea's home. There he
met Mrs. Beals, golden of hair, and
blue of eyes. When he returned from
California several months later to
learn of her husbands death, accord
ing to Mrs. Corby, he asked her to
p'eside in his home. 1t was stipu-
lated that she was not to be re-
garded as a servant.
This was in August 1915. and as
Mrs. Beals could not retV I'm to her
relatives in Belgium at that time and
nd n n nnt
then settled, she agreed.
Mr.. Corby's seventy-odd years were
resting lightly on him. and he looked
scarcely mtre than fifty-five, sas his
wife. He was kind to her and she
liked him. Their acquaintance ripen-
ed into something more than platonic
friendship, Mrs. Corb admits. but de-
clares he delayed marrying her.
Finally they were married in May,
1919, but Mrs. Corby maintains that
the aged millionaire insisted on her
signing a separation agreement be-
fore he would marry her. According
to this agreement In case OF legal
separation, she was to receive $4,000
in lieu of dover rights.
BABY THERESA Is BORN.
A few months after the ceremony
the baby, Marie Theresa, was born
and Mr.. Corby was very much de-
lighted and called the baby his
'heiress.' Mrs. Corby said, adding:
"He seemed very fond of her until he
quarreled with me and then he turned
against her, too. When 1 had ar
ranged to go to Europe last June to
settle my mothers estate, everything
was all right but my trip was de-
layed a week and that time Mr.. Corby
and / quarfeled. The quarrel was
over money matters. Then he start
ed the suit. / have hod no money
from him since we separated.
Then" Mrs. Corby added. with
tears in her eyes. "Mr. Corby's law
yers brought suit charging Mr.. Corby
is not the father of Marie Theresa"

RED MAY DAY PARIS

PARIS, April 22.-The annual cam
paign to create a reign of terror in
Paris on May Day has just been
launched by French Communist lead
ers.
The first shot Is an article in the
Communist organ, Humanite, inviting
100000" unemployed of Paris to
march on the gilded dance palaces Of
Montmarte as demonstration
against the reckless expenditure Of
money by Americans, South Amer
leans. English, and French newly
rich" This article, 1t is understood
will shortly be followed by others
with the object OF stirring up the I'M

the first day of May.

The police have taken no extra
precautions as a result of the Com
munist appeal. Most Of the Mont

narrow streets, converging on the
Place Pigalle. or intersecting the Rue

taught the French police that such

Sunday this year. The Communist
leaders are proposing to continue
demonstrations the following day.

We sometimes are compelled to go away from

W. Burton, an English divine who spent five years
among US, tells the British public how prohibition
works in the United States He says:
It was my privilege to spend about i've years in the
United States, and during half of that time I was pas
tor Of a Presbyterian church in the state of South Da-
kota, which voted out the saloon at the commence
ment of my pastorate. As to the question of effect
iveness, il prohibition does not prohibit, why do the
brewers and the publicans want 1t repealed? II it
does not prohibit, then it certainly does not injure
their trade and their financial interests are ~unaffect-
ed. May l also point out that when Admiral Sims Wis
tied this country n month or two ago he spoke of the
wonderfully beneficial effects of prohibition and af-
frmed that it had come to stay. Lord Leverhulme,
also. after returning from n visit to America, unhesi-
tatingiy spoke in its favor. During my residence there
its benefits were to me amazing, among which / noted
the following:
() Other businesses were more prosperous. Shops
and stores had to be enlarged, more accommodation
provided and additional assistants engaged.
OBJ Poverty vanished; there were no poor.
(c) Home life was greatly improved, and homes in
every way better furnished.
(d) The jais were soon emptied and turned into
business premises.
(e) There were healthier children; a feeble-mind-
ed child was a rarity.
~ The unemployment problem was solved, there
being a great demand for workers in trades which had

THE AMERICAN HAT.

"In THESE days of Uniformity says Leslieis, ..any
change in the direction of individuality is gratifying.
Such a change is that under way in the fashion in
hats, for the SLOUGH is driving the Derby from the
field.
This is well, not only because the SLOUGH has the
advantage in comfort and is less conducive to the fall
ing out of hair. 1t is also more expressive of person
atty, Tor the man must conform to the DERBY, but the
SLOUGH hat conforms to the man; a sunny nature
shines the brighter for the upward tilt of the forward
brim; the pugnacity of the decisive is proclaimed by a
fierce downward slant over the eyes. The flexible
crown as readily yields to the nature of the individual.
Moreover, the SLOUGH hat is the American hat.
Under its shadow the west was won, from the Allie
ghenies to the Pacific. 1t has adapted itself to every
American condition. Southern suns broadencd its
brim for the planter and gave it a protective hue,
on the plains its brim stiffened to meet the flowing
winds and widened to assist the far-looking eve of cat.
tleman and scout. In the Civil war it abetted the aim
OF the Confederate rifeman and embellished with a
golden cord IL adorned the heads of union officers.
Under its twin ridges the boys of '9s followed Roose-
welt up San Juan and marched under the medieval tow
es Of Manila; and then the war department learned
from the cowboy and molding the crown into a single
futed peak set it upon the heads of our Mexican Dor
der patrols and those of the men of our national
army.
"But, whatever its form or color, it was always the
SLOUGH hat; and SO it still remains, however the hat
tiers may bind its rim, or adorn it with ribbons-the
hat of independence and Individuality, the American
hat"

THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT.

rhs pendine tariff bill is estimated to yield from
ak to seven hundred millions in revenue 10 the gov
eminent. The Fair Trade League has asserted that:
sThe present low tariff rates yielded in 1920 WITHIN
I5h per cent Of as much revenue as was ever realized
under the higher rates of previous tariffs"
The league is careful to omit the fact that IN order
TO accomplish this it required over five billion dollars
in imports, while less than two billions in the last year
of the Republican tariff law yielded ssls,ooo,oOo in
revenues. .,
The average ad valorem rate Of the Underwood
law, still in force, is about 8 per cent, SO that IN or
der for that bill to yield the revenue estimated for
the Fordney measure, we would have to import from
ten to eleven billions of dollars worth of imports.
That would have a fine effect on American production'
would it not? It would SO paralyze American indus
try that there wouldn't be the widows mite OF income
or corporation taxes forthcoming outside Of the swoi-
len profits of the importers of foreign goods. That
is Just the sort Of thing the Fair Trade League hank
ers for. Its idea Of fairness is that the importer
should be given the American market and the Amer
lean manufacturer and farmer may whistle for theirs.
The protectionist may be biased in his views. He
is personally interested. The free trader is certainly
biased in his views. He has foreign goods to dispose
of. But since there has to be bias one way or another,
isn't it a little bit safer to give the protectionist the
benefit Of the doubt since he is the American man
retain a preponderant share of his own home market?
II one were to call the roll of the Fair Trade League
and study the membership, he would probably find it
made up Of internationalists who advocate surrender
Of nationality to the league of nations, the gift out
right Of the Panama canal to every other country,
America alone to ply tolls, and American disarma-
ment regardless Of the action of the other powers.
Having put through that program they would make
their money here and go to Europe to live.

ALICE. THE o-urspokEN.

Whether or not you agree with the Hon. Alice
Robertson, NJ. c., says the Cleveland Plain Dealer,
you are compelled to admit that she is an upstand-
ing, hard hitting, self-reliant person who does not
shun a fight and who toadies to no one. Perhaps she
is a poor politician. Surely she is no opportunist. BY
opposing the eocaled 'better baby" bill Miss Robert
son deliberately antagonized a number Of powerful or
CARNATIONS of women and allied herself with what
she knew was a Hopeless minority. But she spoke in
accordance with the dictates of her judgment and her
conscience, and this is what legislators ought to do.
'The more we compare Miss Robertson with her
sole feminine predecessor in congress the more we ad
mire the 'stateswoman'' from Oklahoma. Miss Ran.
kin of Montana once shed tears in congress, but she
did not make much of an impression. Miss Robert.
son, an older woman and a woman of an altogether
different type, makes her influence felt without even
trying. And when she does try she does something
very much worth while. Her speech on the better
baby bill was a notable effort, a straightforward pre-
sentation of the honest convictions of a woman and
a member. of congress. Even those who are in the
most irreconcilable disagreement with Miss Robert.
sons views may be generous enough to give her credit
for having done something courageous and praise.

ANrE.pArEs THE PYRAMIDS.

The girl with the bodied hair need not be so fresh
about it. She is introducing no style old timers are
not familiar with. Well-known old settlers of pre-
pyramid days are pointing to the fact that the daugh-
tiers of the early Pharaohs affected bobbed hair and
some of these very girls properly pickeled and spiced
and rolled in linen are in evidence to prove the fact.
Even in the Field museum in Chicago may they be
viewed, bodied hair and all.
Those who have kept close track of modes of doing
hair recall not only in Egypt but the beauty parlor
advertisements of ancient Peru showed bodied hair to
be the rage. It was common in ancient Nineveh and
Tyre.
Our cave ancestors originated the hair flowers and
wreaths you doubtless may have seen framed and
hanging on the parlor walls of your great grandpar-
ents. These were made from gatherings from the
raari1cil, establishments from the stone ago down.
1t is rumore that Eve was born with very closely
clipped, if not really, bodied hair.
And so on down through every age. For brief
spells women would favor long tresses and men bush

JUST SHOOTS SCATTERING.

Additional fuel to the burning question of the hour
has been added by Leslie Miller of the Kinney Oil
company. 1t comes in the form of a bale of CORES.
pondence addressed not directly but openly to Gov
Robert D. Carey. Mr.. Miller rather takes the gov
ernor to task for an attempt to induce a Colorado cor.
poration to set up a group of filling stations in Wyo
ming, implying by such action that persons already
engaged in that line of business in the state are
p%rofteers.
Mr.. Miller points out that the governor took nc
pains to learn the facts relating to cost and selling
price Of gasoline and other products, cost Of opera.
lion or particulars Of the business; but invited the
Continental Oil company to come into Wyoming and
put the Wyoming dealers out of business. This seems
to be the governors method of bringing down the
prices of refined products to the people. y
Mr.. Miller shows by figures from the principal cities
Ia the state that dealers operate on a margin Of from
one cent to four cents above tank wagon prices. The
fair average over the state would not exceed two
cents which is exactly the margin the Continental, on
its own authority, would charge.
Therefore, Mr.. Miller is strongly of the opinionthai
the governor has gone off half cooked, which Is moth.
ing unusual for the governor to do.
In any event the governor has not exactly en-.
deared himself to a very important and active bust
ness interest in the state by afixing the hated labeI
of %profteer to them, when reasonable diligence in Sc
curing the facts would have shown him was without
justification.
