Cornell ST., No. 643 f. 34th Street
Flatbush. against Annie Cornell, be-
fore Justice Cannon in the Supreme
Court, Brooklyn. Mrs. Cornell sr.,
did not defend the action. Justice
Cannon characterized the case as one
of the most unnatural he had ever
heard and ordered Mrs. Cornell ST..

decision.
After the plaintiff had stated he
and his wife were married in May,
1892, had eight children, all living,

He testified that his mother left
their home in East 34th Street In
October, 1921, buying a farm at New
Woodstock, N. Y. He went there to
visit her shortly after and found, he
said, that a man named Herbert
Johnson was living in the house.
Cornell returned to Brooklyn and was
married Nov. %, 1921. For honey
moon he took his bride to visit his
mother at New Woodstock.
But after they had been there lit

At this point Justice Cannon asked
Young Cornell whether he had remon-

I "No, did not. He weighs IFS
pounds" was the reply,
Then you were afraid to hit him? -
asked The court.
The witness answered in the mega
tive and Justice Cannon inquired why

said he did not want to make any
trouble for his mother, but added that

"But she told me she was boss arc

"Shc told me she loved Johnson anc

Young Mrs Cornell was then called

that in that case my husband and

announced that he would hear argyll

by George Donnellan, counsel for the
defense, for an order restoring to the

to let the police take care Of the

That was an idea that had not

thought the best thing TO do would
be to take the money back to the
store ana lock it in the safe. He as

NEW IRISH DISPUTE
DRAWS ATTENTION OF
BRITISH GOVERNMENT

LONDON, Feb. s.-The latest dis
agreement between Michael Collins
and Sir James Craig is drawing the
anxious attention of the British
government and 1t Is recognized that
the boundary fixing question be-
tween North and South Ireland is
one Of grave possibilities. But
until an impasse is acknowledged by
the North and South Irish spokesnen
London will regard the affair as q
matter to be handled without British
interference. it was declared in an
official quarter today. Should a
deadlock be reached 1t is intimated
that London might use its good Of
fices in a reconciliation move.
The suggestion that Prime Min
lister Lloyd George, or his colleagues,
gave territorial assurances to Mr..
Collins during the negotiations that
preceded the signing of the Anglo
irish treaty assurances OF which
Sir James was not apprised is
labelled as absurd. The next move
ment may result from the confer
ences which the Ulster premier pro-
poses to continue in London for few
days. Sir James saw Winston
Spencer Churchill, the colonial sec
retary and other members OF the cab
met committee which negotiated the
Anglo-Iris treaty. this afternoon.
Mr.. Churchill later went to Downing
street to discuss the situation with
Mr.. Lloyd George.

German Credit To
Soviets Arranged
By Manufacturers

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.--Arrange-
ments TO furnish q credit of 100, ,000,-
900 marks to the Russian soviet gov
ernment to cover purchases by the
soviet trade department have been
made by a group OF German manu-
facturers, according to a report to
the commerce department today from
Commercial Attache Herring at Ber-
lin.
The credit, the attache said, may
be increased later to 100000, 900
marks, but German bankers declare
the amount indicated in the public
announcement is nominal and that
the initial credit win not exceed g.
100000 marks. The credit is to be
used exclusively. he added, for pur-
chase from the participating manu-
facturers.
"The granting of credit" Mr.. Her
ring said, seems to represent an ex-
pectatlon of return to more normal
conditions in Russia"
German foreign trade for Decem-
ber, Mr.. Herring reported, showed
the only favorable money trade bal
ance recorded for 1921.
There was left an actual favorable
trade balance in paper marks of 9Oo,-
900, 900 for the last month of the year,
although the trade balance by volume
was slightly unfavorable.

\. AND N. DAWES
GIVES IDEAS ON
BUDGET SYSTEM
IN j. s. OFFICES

WASHINGTON. Feb. 3-Brandish-
ing broom in either hand. striding
rapidly from one end of the platform
to another and stamping his feet
until the echoes rang in d. A. r. hall
where the arms conference meets in
dignified session. Charles G.. Dawes,
director of the budget, brought
home to more than a thousand Off
cials assembled today in the second
business meeting of the government
the appropriateness of his "hell and
Maria nickname. For more than
half an hour he poured forth criti-
cism and praise alike on officials of
high and low degree.
Stopping suddenly in the midst of
a citation of instances of lack Of CO.
operation by governmental depart
ments with the budget bureau CO.
ordinators which instances he de-
scribed as "fly specks" on the bu-
reau's record of accomplishments,
Mr.. Dawes suddenly shouted:
Where are those brooms2'
Three brooms were produced from
under a table by an assistant.
There the budget director ex-
claimed. pounding the floor with the
handle of one Of the brooms, is your
broom that meets navy specifica-
tons. And here are brooms that
do not meet these specifications. but
sweep just as we'll. The navy bought
$4,000 of it's specification brooms
when 1t could have had 100000 army
brooms for nothing"
The budget director went on to say
it took a months persuasion to make
the marine corps adopt a slight
change in color in order to use 100,-
600 army shirts and save $4,000. He
told Secretary DENLY, however the
record OF the navy for cooperation
with the bureau was the best Of the
departments.
AS an instance OF cooperation in
the treasury. he declared that when
it was found there were IS different
purchasing agencies in that depart
ment their coordination was effected
without delay.
Secretary Mellon is business
man." he added.
Legislative and executive heads Of
the government, determine how the
ship sails" but the budget bureau
determines. how far she sails" Mr.
Dawes said at another point, and
added:
IF congress should decide that
garbage should be spread on the
White House steps-much as we love
the president--it would be for the
budget bureau to advise how the
largest amount of garbage could be
spread in the most economical man
ner"
