Friends Make Appeal
To Save Viscountess
From Deportation

NEW YORK, Aug. 22.-An appeal
on behalf Of the Viscountess Barren.
gere P. De Becdelievre, daughter of
the Comte de Chalet of France, held
for deportation at Ellis Island under
a technical ruling that she might be-
cor a public charge, was made to
Washington today by friends of the
viscountess. When she arrived last
week on the liner Homeric she told
immigration authorities she expected
to marry Robert Grant, a golf play
er, Of Ardmore Park, Pa.
A special board Of inquiry was
called, however, when it developed
that her engagement to Grant was
told only to help her enter the coun.
try.
Pending decision of the appeal,
which will be made by Secretary of
Labor Davis, the order for deporta-
ton will not be served.

LAMPS AND CANDLES
LIGHT OHIO TOWN
BY b. F. MILLER
ueased Wire Service to The Journal.)
(CNnnrri 1000

Copyright. 1929
COLUMBUS GROVE, Ohio, Aug.
22.-Primitive methods are in vogue
here today. The oil lamp and the
tallow candle have replaced the cleo
trio light bulb and the gas jet. The
old oaken bucket and the we'll have
been substituted for the ready flow
Of water from the pipes in the
houses. Saturday night is again the
planned night for the bath.
This change in habits was COM
PEELED following the shutting down
last night at o'clock of the town
light and water plants. 1t was the
result of the coal strike. Fuel sup.
plies available were completely ex.
hausted at both places yesterday.
The officials were unable to get a
new supply as bins are as bare as
old Mother Hubbard's cupboard.
The shutdown renders this town,
the first in Ohio, absolutely desti-
tute Of fuel. 1t has compelled the
inhabitants to seek kindling wood to
cook their meals.
While the 1000 inhabitants were
making the best Of it two big trains
Of coal passed through. One carried
100 cars, the other fifty.
But they didn't stop. ~
They were enroute from southern
Ohio mines to points on the B. & O..
and the D., r. & I. Efforts Of the
officials to commander some of the
cars for the municipal plants failed,
although big crowds of citizens as.
sembled along the tracks to watch
them whizz by. The spectacle re-.
sembled the crowds that gathered
on circus day. The people, however
were not sightseeing. They had
hoped that the trains could be stop
ped, and some of the badly needed
fuel diverted to use here.
Mayor George Luce, in answer to
complaints, explained that the town
was helpless. He stated that tho
coal was being moved on priority or
ders, and that he and his associates
in the government of the munich
pality had been unable to get any
relief from the state authorities.
Appeals to the state fuel director
brought back telegram:
See your local dealers"
They could easily be seen but not
a single one Of them had a pound
Of coal to sell. And they said that
orders placed had been turned down.
Health officials fear the shut
down Of the water plant will bring
on an epidemic of diseases, especially
typhoid fever, inasmuch as the wells,
Of the old-fashioned kind, have not
been used in recent years.
; Townspeople, however, are facing
the situation calmly. They return
to the primitive with smiles and a
broad community spirit. They say,
Mayor Luce says, the officials all
say:
'"The strike may be over as ,e.
ported, but Columbus Groves ener-
gency Is just commencing"
And everybody Is happy and
thankful-that 1t is August and not
January,

PASSAGE Of BONUS
MAY BE NEXT WEEK

WASHINGTON, Aug. a.. Pass
age Of the bonus bill in the senate
by the middle Of next week, with ap-
proximately 80 votes against it,
seemed assured today.
This was evidenced in announce
ment of results of several separate
polls Of the senate. Chairman Nc
Cumber, co-author of the bill, pre-
dicted substantial majority over
two-thirds will advance the measure
to the president for signature.
On the other hand, opponents OF
the compensation plan, while not
sanguine enough to believe it could
be blocked at this time, were con-
fident that sufficient strength could
be mustered to sustain a veto, should
Mr.. Harding refuse to sign 1t, as
has been reported, if the bill did not
contain some Embarrassing amend
ment, preferably a sales tax.
Both the house and the senate re-
peatedly have refused to accept a
sales tax. and 1t is not now consid-
cred likely that q revenue-raising
provision will be attached.
Fearful of an open break between
the president and congress, it is be-
lieved number Of administration
supporters, who otherwise would IA
-Vor a bonus, will bolt on the show
down, and will oppose the bill over
a veto.
Opponents were lining up for bat
tie on the grounds the nation cannot
stand an added financial burden
which the bonus, 1t is estimated, will
: impose to the extent of about 81.
: 100000, 900.
Senator McCumber and other
staunch supporters. were ready to
contend that the bonus is in reality
"a government obligation-long over
due-to war veterans, and that the
so-called tax burden" argument car
ries no weight for the initial pay
ments of the foreign war debt to
America will more than meet ex-
penses.
Despite the separate drive which
has been waged by western senators
In favor of including the McNary
reclamation and land settlement
amendment in the bill, there appears
little probability that it will be &C.
cepted.

Faculty Strengthened
At Berry Schools;
Great Year Expected

ROME, Ca, Aug. 22.-The fall
term of the Berry schools will open
for the boys on August 81 and for
the girls on September 1. It is ex-
pected that about seven or eight
hundred will register. This will
crowd to capacity every available
building for dormitory use on the
campus. The authorities Of the
school have been unable to accom-
modate great many who have
made application because Of lack
Of room. Over three hundred such
have yet to be turned away.
The faculty for the year will in
clude several new instructors. Karl
Robinson, a graduate Of the school,
class Of 1916, who has recently
been conducting an agricultural
school in Hawaii, will return to
Berry as teacher Of agriculture and
horticulture. Those who are most
interested in the work at Berry
feel that the institution Is most
fortunate in securing Mr.. Robin
sons services. because he is one of
Berry's foremost men, an inspiring
lecturer and a splendid teacher,
thoroughly trained both in theory
and practice of agriculture.
Rev. w. s. Nicholson, who unit!
recently taught at Richmond acad-
envy in Augusta; will have the chair
Of Bible and will be the school
chaplain. Claud Houghton, David
son graduate, will serve as teacher
OF English and assistant in physi-
cal education.
At the girls school the new ep-
pointments include Miss Priscilla
Lingo, who will serve as teacher
Of history and English. She has
been prominent in educational work
as well as religious and social
service activities. Miss Julia Lew
is. a graduate in home economics
student Of the University Of Geor-
gia, will be in charge of the domes-
tic science department.
j. B. Murray will return to Ber-
ry schools after several years alb.
sence, during which time he has
been pursuing his studies at several
universities, and will serve as dean
OF the Mountain Farm school. 9th
ci ASW appointments are. Byron
Eberhardt; Miss Marie Means, who
is a special student Of English, and
will teach those classes at the
girls school; Miss Elsie Andrews
and Miss Bessie McGinnis, who will
both be employed at the girls
school.
The outlook for the year is ex-
ceedingly bright and the school au-
thorities hold out great hopes for
the most significant year in the
history Of the school. Never before
has it been the privilege o. Berry
schools to serve so many Young
men and women. The increased
matriculation has been made posi-.
BILE by a small addition to the girls
school and new building at the
Mountain Farm school, where all
OF the boys who are below high
school grades will be moved. The
work at the Mountain Farm school
Will be confined to foundation train
ing. This has made room for an
additional hundred at the bows
school, which will confine its work
to high school training.

900 damage suit against Walter T.

eff I believed for a moment that

these people some time ago. she
added.

are that the men sufiocated from

II was believed that possibly only

any. OF course. all OF America
cannot keep from sympathizing
with the relatives Of the deceased
miners who doubtless KEEP, hope
to the last.
But there is another provoking
angle To this disaster in Amarillo.
When the reports came ont Mon
day that the rescuers had just
about reached the place Of the
disaster. il is said that there were
bets made here on the issue Of
whether the entombed men would
be dead or alive. II is hoped that
these rumors are not true. for it
shows a willful disregard for
