Loue Breaks Mothers Stoicisrn
At Sight of abandoned Baby

Leah Silver, the unmarried mother
soon to become mother again, broke
down and sobbed broken -heartedly in
the Coney Island police station last
night. Charged with abandoning her
hfteen-month-od daughter in a
Creek two weeks ago, the girl had
brazenly faced the situation ali through
nerve-wracking day. Arrested in New
Haven on Friday night, she had
travelled to New York in the morning
with detective by her side, and had
successfully matched wits with a squad
OF news photographers seeking to
catch her in an unwary moment. In
the afternoon she had gone with de-
tectives to the Kings County Hospital,
where the tiny arms of her neglected
child had been stretched out trustfuily
to her again. She had cried little
over the hundred scars of mosquito
bites which still mark the baby's body,

So they took her at last, defiant as
ever, to the little room which serves
the woman police attendant for an
office. A Tribune reporter found her
there and asked her one question.
Don't you love your baby?"
Her little swarthy face assumed q
bewildered, cornered look, and all the
pertness vanished. She paused, then
put her hands to her face with swift,
catching movement. The tears welled
up into her brown eyes, and suddenly
she dropped her head in her hands and
sobbed.

brokenly. And then the whole story
came out.
There isn't anything romantic about
it, or about Leah either. Short and

looks the world in the eye after the
fashion of those who have wrestled
with misfortune continually and have
learned to trust no one. Outside she

Says s'Nuisance Value Is
Capitalized by Mrs. Gould
Court Holds There Is No Merit
in Her Appeal Against
Divorce Ruling

Holding there was no merit in the
appeal Of Mrs. Edith Kelly Gould,
from one of the decisions rendered
against her in the various moves she
has made here to set aside the di-
vorce Frank j. Gould obtained in
Paris, and expressing the opinion that
Mrs. Gould might be regarded as at
tempting to "capitalize her nuisance
value,' the Appellate Division again
decided against her yesterday. The
appeal decided adversely to Mrs. Gould
was on the refusal of the Supreme
Court to grant an order vacating the
dismissal by Justice Mullan of the
divorce complaint filed in New York
by Mrs. Gould. Mr.. Gould had d.
vorced her in France. The decision
of Justice Mullan, denying Mrs. Gould
to file an amended reply, also was
appealed with the same result.
Counsel for Mrs. Gould had based
their appeal on the ground that the
French judgment obtained by Mr..
Gould had become null and void, be-
cause he had failed to file a tran
script of the judgment with the proper
French tribunal within two months
after it was granted, as required by
the French law.

the most.

From the police it was learned that
the girl gave the name of the child's
father as Raymond Cullen.
Baby Ruth is still at Kings County
Hospital, while her mother remains in
Jail lacking friends or influence to Sc
cure bail. Ten years is the maximum
sentence on the abandonment charge.

Tells of Holy Land Fight
Apostolic Delegate Believes
Britain Would Drop Zionists

ROME, July 14.--Frediano Giannini,
Apostolic delegate from Syria, who has
just arrived here in order to discuss
with the Pope conditions among the
missions in the Holy land, when in
terviewed, gave as his opinion:
II firmly believe England would will
ingly rid herself of the responsibility
of protecting the Zionist movement in
Palestine for which for economic rea-
sons they at first accepted the man
date. The Arabs are determined to
unite against the domination of the
Jews and the latter themselves are not
united, the preference in all questions
being given by the Zionist Committee
to Russian and Rumanian Jews who
escaped from Russia and who have been
allotted land bought from the Greek
Church, which the Arabs are not al
lowed to buy, though they are cleverer
agriculturists.
"The Zionist committee hold absolute
power over sales and disposal of the
lands and everything connected with
trade and commerce. The Arabs in
tend to fight for their rights"

New Jersey Clergymen
Talk With Chief Justice

Three Jersey City clergymen and
their attorney called on Supreme
Court Justice Francis J. Swayze yes
terday at Jersey City, and had half
hours conference with him in con-
nection with their efforts to stop the
Tendler-Leonard boxing match sched-
uled for July q at Boyle's Thirty
Acres, Jersey City. Upon leaving the
Justice the clergymer declined to say
anything about the conference, fur
ther than it had been in connection
with their opposition to the forthcom-
ing lightweight championship match. 1t
is supposed that they sought to have a
special session of the grand jury
called.
Justice Swayze last September,
when he charged the grand jury, told
it to investigate the Dempsey Carpen-
tier match, which he said was fight,
and therefore illegal. The grand jury
finished its work witout finding an in
dictment in connection with the match.

WASHINGTON, July 15.-Senators
took time off from the tariff debate
To-day to shower praises on Senator
Jim" Reed. Of Missouri, now en-.
gagged in the battle Of his political
life. Senator Shields, of Tennessee
and other Democratic Senators COM
mended Senator Reed and Senator
Smoot, Of Utah, Republican, added a
tribute. Senator Smoot's commenda-
zion in particular caused surprise, in
view Of the fact that Missouri Repub-
llcans are working hard to capture
Reeds seat.
Senator Shields brought up the sub.
]ect. He expressed his regret at the
absence Of Senator Reed in the dis.
cussion of the tariff. Senator Shields
said:
There has been necessarily absen,
during this long discussion one of the
abiest members of this body, a Sena.

absence all good and true Democrats

Senator Shields read the editorial ir
"hich The News Scimitar" said the re-
suit IN Missouri was of vital concern tc
the Republican party, since it involved
whether Missouri was to have a Demo,
cratic Senator or two Republican
Senators. 1t said the Republicans know
1T will be easy to defeat Long, and that
no one knows this better than Senate,
Spencer, who defeated Long two wears
ago. The editorial added that the Re.
Publicans preferred nomination of any
democrat rather than Senator Reed,
-, senator Simmons, after deplorinp
that Senator Reed could not be present
to assist in the tariff debate, said:
mo man VINO has been in the United
States Senate since have been here is
better capable of discussing this ques-
ttion than the senior Senator from
Missouri. His analytical powers, his
tireless energy, his great abilities,
would have been of great help if he
could have been here"
Senator King, Democrat, of Utah,
said: II apfee with the Senator frop,
Tennessee, Mr.. Shields, that in contro-
versies between Democrats we have no
right to take part. Mr.. Long is a per

would be of great strength to his

Hughes Silent on
League Snubs, Is
FOsdick Comment
Reply to Hamilton Holt Is
Interesting Because of Its
Omissions, Ayers Former
Under Secretary General

Raymond B. Fosdick, formerly
Under Secretary of the League of Ma
tions, commented yesterday on the
statements contained in the letter of
Secretary of State Hughes to Hamilton
Holt, bearing on the attitude of the
Administration toward the League Of
Nations.
"Secretary Hughes statement"
writes Mr.. Fosdick, "is interesting for
what it omits. 1t neglects to say that
up until last August no communication
of the league addressed to the State
Department was answered and that
when public opinion expressed itself on
the matter of this discourtesy, four
teen such communications we're
answered in batch, some of them be-
ing months old.
HE further omits to say that when
the leagues first conference on the
white slave traffic was held, the State
Department denied that it had received
an invitation, and even when it was
forced to acknowledge that an invita-
tion had long been reposing in it's files,
it made, no effort to put itself right
Similarly the leagues invitation.to at
tend the Barcelona Transit Conference
was not answered.
Mr. Hughes also omitted to say that
the attitude of the State Department
on the question of the leagues pro-
gram of mandates nearly wrecked the
whole plan. He also omitted to say
that the refusal of the State Depart
ment to consent to the amalgamation
of the International Office or Pub
lie Health with the health section of
the League of Nations had nearly
crippled the health work which is now
being carried on with enthusiasm by
fifty-one nations.
"a pertinent question would be
in spite of its non-membership
the United States is obliged to. thwart
the league at every possible point. Do
we have to treat the league with con-
tempt just because we do not belong
to it ?"

under arrest again yesterday, but
evinced no great anxiety until he
learned the charge was disorderly
conduct. Heretofore, it has been
assault, and, after waving ex-
animation, Emil went his royal
way, grand juries refusing to in
dict him.
"1've been waiting for four
years to give you chance to
break rocks" said Recorder Cain,
noting with satisfaction that the
charge was one in which he had
summary jurisdiction. "You
managed to avoid sentence every

At the sentence, Emil indulged

Awaiting His SUGGESTIONS

WASHINGTON, July Is (By The AS

voked informally the aid of the United

Wan conference stood in recess to-day
waiting for the suggestion from Secre-
tary Hughes which was expected to
bring the Tacna-Arica arbitration
agreement speedily to consumma-
tion.
1t was said to be the desire on both
sides so to phrase the protocol that it
could not be interpreted as renounce-
ment of present rights either by Chile
or Peru, or as an Endorsement of the
claim of either to sovereignty over the
province in the absence Of plebiscite
1t was planned to hold joint meet
ing of the conference on Monday after
the two delegation heads, Carlos Aldu-
nate and DR.. Melton Porras, had con-
