Is These are the questions that
close friends Of Miss Harding
wsts asking thsuaslves today,
following a persistent runnor that
Miss Margaret Baldwin had broken
her engagement to Hawks and
that he, remorseful and finding
that he did care for Miss Hard

9Iawks could not be reached to

that Miss Baldwin had broken the
engagement which caused Miss
Harding to take her life. His
friends carefully guarded him from
newspapermen and all attempts to
reach him were futile.
Into the miner circles Of Wash.
ington's Official society life today
was injected the speculation as to
how the death Of Margaret Hard

who knew both say that Hawks is

full for the part he played in the
suicide Of a girl declared by all
to be one Of the prettiest Of the

That Miss Harding would have
died Of a broken heart, and that
she did kill herself because she
was grieving over Hawks engage
ment to another, was the assertion
here Of a friend Of the Harding
family who had known Miss Hard
ing for twenty years.
The mystery letter which Miss
Harding wrote to Hawks shortly
before her death Is causing no lit.
tie speculation as to its contents.
There are those who say that the
letter contained a last appeal to
the young State Department chief,
and there are others who say that
It told him only Of her intention to
kill herself.

LOVE SUIT
BEGINS
Tilted Southern Beauty De-
mands s5oo, 900 Of Coca
nv. Cola King. ''..
BY B. s. STURDIVANT,
international NewU Service.

: ATLANTA, Ca, Jan. 3d.
Beauty battled with Age today
in the famous Debouchel- Gambler
heart balm suit for a half mil
lion dollars.
The scene was in a United
States district court. Asa G. Cam
dler, aged multi-millionaire Coca
Cola king, played the role of Age,
while Mrs. Onezima Debouchel,
noted society leader Of New Or
leans, took the part of Beauty.
Breach of promise was the issue.
Woman Asks $5OO,OOO.
Mrs. Debouchel is asking $500, 900
for her broken heart as a result of
the millionaire's failure to marry
her. They were to have been united
In the fall of 1922, according to
her petition, when he abruptly sew
cred all relations and declared the
wedding was off.
This was not until five days be.
fore the ceremony, she said. Guests
had been invited, flowers ordered,
the pastor had been engaged, her
trousseau was completed-every-
thing was ready but the BRIDE
groom.
He broke the news in a letter,
she said, asserting that the mar
riage would be impossible. He spoke
of scandal which had reached his
ears-of a story to the effect that
she at one time had invited two
Nnen to her room while staying in
an Atlanta Hotel.
He could never marry such a
woman.
The New Orleans beauty stoutly
denied those charges. She has
brought q corps of friends from the
Louisiana city who will, IL neces-
sary, testify to her good character.
If necessary, they also will tell of
the Cocoa Cola kings alleged
ardent wooing and Of completed ar
for the wedding.
The real cause Of the breach, &C.
cording to Mrs. Debouchel, was
opposition offered by the Gambler
heirs. Gambler, himself. had spoken
of this to her, but epressed conf
dence that everything would be
all right" because of large sums of
money he had given to them.
Nevertheless, five days before the
wedding date his wholly unepect-
ed" letter brought an abrupt and
dramatic conclusion to their plans.
Contents of this letter, Mrs. De.
bouchel declares, should be worth

In these circumstances a survey

showings produced by this survey
are herewith presented.
The central fact shown is in two
parts.
First. Mr.. DENLY, contrary to
the advice Of virtually the whole
Of his trained technical naval staff,
took a large and determined share
in the handing over Of the naval
oil reserves from the custody Of
conservationist naval officers to
Mr.. Fall, who admittedly and de-

BURNS CLAIMS
RIGHT TOH|RE
MARINES
Detective Agency Head Says
Seizure of Taxicabs Was
Legally Proper.

The Burns Detective Agency act.
ed within its rights in repossessing
the fleet Of Pennant taxicabs at
Upper Marlboro last week and in
employing enlisted men of the
United States marine corps to do
the work, Raymond J. Burns, pres.
ident of the organization declared
in a statement issued today.
The statement was issued, Mr..
Burns said, after he had completed
a personl investigation Of the case.
Il find that our men were prob
ably instructed and within their
legal rights, as our men possessed
the necessary papers which per-
mitted them to repossess these
cabs" Burns stated.
Il have also investigated the
charges against the members Of the
marine corps who were employed by
our Washington office to drive these
taxicabs, and find that we were with
in our rights in employing them and
the marines were also permitted to
accept this employment, as they
were on leave and the assignment
in no way .conflicted with their
duties"
Officials of the marine corps de-
clared today that the incident is
closed except for whatever action
may be taken against the members
of the service connected with the
repossession.
The taxicabs were taken over by
members Of the Marine Corps who
ordered the drivers out Of the cabs
at the points Of pistols. At pres.
ent ten of the men are under
$4,000 bail on charges Of assault
and robbery.
William Miller, general manager
OF the Pennant Taxicab Company,
last night declared that the repos.
session coup was conspiracy to
ruin his business.

'chum Says He Was Seen
Taking to Her Before
Disappearance.

The search for Elsie May Dob
son, fourteen, who was kidnapped
last night on King street, Alex
andria, was begun today by her
father, David Dobson, and the
Alexandria Light Infantry. The
father and Mary Dobson, the
girls mother, predicted that bod
fly injury would be meted out to
Sidney D. Smith, the alleged kid
Eaper.
Seen Near Station.
Tootie Mankins, a friend of the
family, said she had seen Smith
and Elsie walking rapidly toward
Union Station last night about an
hour after the kidnapping, which
would bring them there in time to
catch the evening train for Guam
.Nico It is toward that town that
the search today is being directed.
Jessie Garland, who was with
Elsie at the time Smith is said to
have approached the girl, said that
they agrued on the curb for some
time before he pulled her by the
arm into waiting automobile. Jes-
sic said that Elsie did not wish to
70 with Smith, as she was not
dressed, having on her fathers
working clothes, but that Smith ex-
planned he had clean clothes in the
car.
Smith claims that he is half Indian.
In a letter alleged to have been re-
ceived by the girl yesterday before her
disappearance. Smith said: "while you
are in the arms Of the other fellow.
you know that you ought to be in
the arms of your Indian lover"
Girl Afraid Of Him.
The girl. who IL very large for her
age, was afraid Of Smith. her mother
stated. and night before last had a
dream in which she was kidnapped
by him. Jessie Garland, her girl
friend, who was with her when Smith
IL alleged to have kidnapped her,
stated that the girl made every at
tempt to get away from him and
even promised to meet him the next
DAY and run away with him II he
would let her go. Smith refused to
do this and stated that she had fooled
him several times before in that way
and that she was going with him now.
The girls mother said that Smith
had been annoying her daughter
for nearl ythree years with his at.
tentions and upon being told on
several occasions to leave her alone
said that IL he did not get her no
one else would. 1t is this threat
which leads to the thought that
Smith and Elsie have run away to
be married.

sued search warrants for several
houses in which the girl might
have hidden.

Miss Mary Mcguire, for many
years a New York social worker,

she sat behind her desk at the
joint application bureau-a new
type Of employment agency.
She offers only employment the
applicant would enjoy and in
which he would be successful.

spot then the road to success
is clear. This Strong spot may
be love of family, religion, some
study, or a hobby"
Gall so-called failures are
the men who have attempted
the jobs where they do not fit
in. Soon hope dies-for hope
dies easily. Fear also leads to
failure, as does illness.

and illness, then find a mans
strong spot play on it and

EVADE
PAYMENT Of
DUTIES
Ship Through Irish Ports to
England, in New Plan
To Escape Levy.
BY international News Service.

LONDON, Mar. 18.-German mer-
chants have discovered an ingenious
way to evade the PREPARATIONS levy
on goods exported from Germany.
They now send their goods to
England via Ireland. AS the ex-
ports levy is not chargeable on
goods entering the Irish Free State
the goods can be re-exported to
England without the German mer-
chant becoming liable for the 26
per cent reparations tax on all
goods leaving Germany.
British officials are attempting to
combat the evasion by demanding a
certificate Of the country Of origin
Of the goods before admitting them
to Britain. They contend that a
temporary deposit in ireland does
not make the goods of any less
German origin, and they are there
fore liable for the Preparations tax.
The question has now become a
battle Of wits between the British
customs and Irish trans.shippers,
but all the ports Of England and
Scotland in the west are being
closely watched, and all goods ar
irving from Ireland are subjected
to the closest scrutiny in order to
ascertain whether they originally
emanated from Ireland.
