courage to break my life to pieces and

BRAND RESIGNATION
NOT UNEXPECTED
Other Bureau Chiefs Likely
to Be Replaced Gradually
Because of Differences.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
With the resignation yesterday of
Charles j. Brand. marketing specialist
of the Department of Agriculture, the
name of another of the intimate ad-
risers Of the late Secretary Wallace
disappears from the circle of key de-
partment officials as reconstructed by
Secretary Jardine.
The resignation was telegraphed to
the Secretary, who is on an inspection
tour of the West. MIR. Brand Is under
stood to have known in advance that
his resignation would be accepted if
rendered.
For some time before the death of
Secretary Wallace there were indi-
cations of a difference of opinion be-
tween the group of department Of
ficials he had gathered about him. on
the one hand and some members of
President Coolidge's agricultural
commission on the other. Mr. Jardine,
before his appointment by the Presi-
dent as Secretary of Agriculture.
was a member of the Agricultural
Commission, and the prediction has
been general that his administration
would see a far-reaching change IN
department personnel.
DIR. Ball Still in Office.
The first of the ranking officials of
the department whose resignation was
accepted by Mr.. Jardine was DR.. +. d
Ball, director of scientific research
The acceptance was dated March D,
the first day of the new Coolidge ad-
ministration. but DIR. Ball still Is on
duty at the department and apparently
has selected no date for his departure
The only explanation given at the de-
partment is that he Is waiting until
accept another position.
In addition to Mr.. Brand and DIR.
Ball. several bureau chiefs and lesser
officials are expected gradually TO be
replaced The Agricultural Commis-
sion in its report recommended closer
cooperation between the bureaus OF
the department and those officials who
show no disposition to cooperate prob
ably will be dropped.
Differed Radically.
Secretary Jardine and Mr.. Brand
differed radically on the McNary-
Haugen bill to maintain farm crop
prices through a Government pur-
chasing agency. Mr.. Brand assisted
in drafting the bill and the Secretary.
even before he became member or
the Agricultural Commission, had eX-
pressed opposition to any form of price
fixing. The bill did not get the sup
port of the commission and was de-
feated in Congress.
This was Mr.. Brands second term
in the department. He quit some
years ago after he had been the sub
ject of attack in connection with the
administration of the packers and
stockyards act, but he was invited to
return in 1922 by Secretary Wallace,
whom he served as expert consultant.
He was the first chief of the former
Bureau of Markets and during the war
was chairman of the cotton distribu-
ton committee of the War Industries
Board.
Mr.. Brands resignation will become
effective soon after July l, when he
will become executive secretary Of the
recently organized National Fertilizer
Association, which is combination of
the Southern and Northern fertilizer
organizations.

The directors of the Richmond bank
last year recommended to the Federal
Reserve Board the establishment of
a branch bank in the Carolinas, and
named Charlotte as the preferable
location for the proposed bank. Its
members appeared before the reserve
board in Washington later in the
interest of the proposal. The fact
that the Richmond board has peti-
toned the reserve board for a re-
hearing of the case is interpreted in
banking circles here as meaning that
the directors Of the Richmond bank
will continue the fight.

BY QUEEN MARIE OF RUMANIA.
In several of my articles I have
spoken about love-only just a quar-
ter of what I would have had to say
though, and now I am to speak about
marriage.
You might say: But is 1t not one
and the same thing? And If I could
answer that with a loud and ready
Yes" as we are supposed to say
before the altar. then indeed I would
be wiping half the tragedies, comedies
and dramas out of the world.
Marriage,
In this world of ours, which Is
changing in such a disconcerting way,
the word has rather a different sound
from that which 1t had-let us say
even 10 years ago.
1t used to mean the supreme aim
of every girls life, her ideal, her
dream.
The dream varied, of course. accord
ing to the quality of the girl For
some 1t meant love with a huge capi-
tai l.. With others it meant money,
luxury, position, ease, and for the
humber merely a home, a corner to
call her own, a house to direct, look
after, to possess women love
to possess, to be at home.
For many it also meant children,
but this most of all seems to have
become an old-faShioned ideal-but
more about this in another place.
In this new world of ours marriage
is no more the supreme goal It
still is the aim of most girls, but
they know that If they do not marry
there will all the same still be an
honorable corner for them some
where, where they can be happy, use-
full or merely content.
Large possibilities open out before
them, and as in many ways girls are
being brought up more wisely than
formerly, more practically, anyhow.
they will certainly know how to seize
these possibilities. But l feel like
calling out to them to be careful not
to overreach, not to lose their birth
right, in straining toward equality
with men.
