tory. He is told that this country now
is making more woolen cloth than be-
fore the war. Because of the changes
in styles, the worsted industry has suf-
fered considerably during the past
year, the President is told, because the
public generally has been wearing
wool.
His latest reports, however, indicate
that the Fall fashions will shift back
more to worSted.
There was a report here today that
President Coolidge would be called
upon TO designate some person to act
as arbiter in the building trades war
that is on in Boston. The President
said today that he has received no
such information and that he sees
no reason why this matter, which is
purely local affair, should be brought
to him.

In the country is scheduled for to-
morrow, when the Essex County Re
publican Club will entertain President

Senator Beveridge of Indiana will be

WILL NOT CHEAPEN
SCHOOL BUILDINGS
District Heads Refuse to
Lower Standard of Build
ingS to "Cut Costs

The Commissioners will not lower
the standard of school building con
struction in order to begin work i'm
mediately in cases where the prices
quoted by contractors exceed available
appropriations.
This decision was announced by En-
gineer' Commissioner Bell today, fol-
lowing a lengthy conference between
himself and Commissioner Fenning
and members of the Board of Educa-
ton. The question became serious
last week when it was found that all
bids on three new school buildings
were far in excess Of the amounts
fixed by Congress, due. TO increased
building costs since last year, and also
TO the incorporation of several lm-
proved features in the plans.
we decided" Col. Bell said, that
it would not be desirable or wise to
proceed with the erection Of buildings
of an inferior type in order to keep
within the money we now have, when
the only purpose to be served by such
a course would be to finish the build
ing a few months before the next
school year closes.
1T was decided to ask Congress in
December for the additional amounts
needed to put up the proper kinds Of
school buildings. OF course, if we
do not get the additional money We
will have TO proceed with the best
possible type of building"
The Schools Affected
Col. Bell said it was agreed in the
conference that in the cases Of the
Manor Park School, the BrightwoOd
Park School and the building 10 be
erected at Fifth and Buchanan streets
the limit of S14O, 600 on each build
ing would not permit the erection Of
a building that would even measure
up to schools that have been built il
the past, much less provide for any
improvements over older buildings.
He pointed out that it would be neces-
sary to eliminate nearly $50, 900 worth
of work from each building. This, he
said, would mean inferior heating
and plumbing and a curtailment Of
many other important features OF the
specifications.
Col. Bell said that when bids exceed
an appropriation by a few hundred
dollars it is practical TO eliminate
some feature that viii bring the cost
within the bids. but when the price
exceeds the appropriations by thou
sands of dollars it is not desirable 10
go forward.
The Commissioners also discussed
with the school board officials what
should be done in the case Of the
Western High School athletic field, IN
which the District Supreme Court,
a few days ago, dismissed a condemna-
ton proceeding for the acquisition Of
lands between Thirty-eighth and
Thirty-ninth, S street and Reservoir
road, on the ground that an athletic
field there would be inconsistent with
the zoning law.
Want Law Defined.
Col. Bell said he would have to con-
fer with Corporation Counsel Stephens
before deciding whether to appeal
from that decision or turn attention
to the selection of some other site.

however, that the Zoning Commission,

GOULD'S WIDOW
WEDS EARL'S SON
Former Actress Becomes
Bride of Viscount Dunsford.
HeireSS to Fortune.
BY the Associated Press.


NEW York. July 2S.-Mrs. Guine-
we're Gould, widow of George
J. Gould, and heiress to a large part
of the Gould fortune, was married at
Montreal today to Viscount Dunsford,
son and heir of the Earl of Middleton.
They were married by the Rev. DR..
Hanson of the American Presbyterian
Church, and it was announced that
they would make their home in Lon
don.
Viscount Dunsford is 81 years old,
was educated at oxford and served
with the British forces during the
World War, being twice decorated for
bravery.
Lady Dunsford came to the United
States in 1913 as Miss We're Sinclair
with an English theatrical company
slated to produce THE Girl on the
Film Nine years later according to
official record filed in Trenton, n. J.,
she married George Jay Gould. S.
year-oId millionaire widower, giving
her own age as 29. Following her
husbands death she instituted a suit
in chancery against the trustees of
his estate for a trust fund of 81 ,000, 900
claimed to have been set aside for
her three children, all of whom, she
testified. in the succeeding litigation,
were offspring of her relations with
Mr.. Gould.
Acknowledged Children.
The marriage with Mr.. Gould was
performed at Lakewood, n. J., May 1,
1922, or barely six months after the
sudden death of Mrs. Edith Kingdom
Gould, first wife of the f1nancier, on
the golf links at Lakewood.
In the several court actions. which
have since ensued, it was brought out
that the second Mrs. Gould resided
under the name of Mrs. Guinevere
Sinclair on a $S0O,00 estate at Ma
nursing Island. in Long Island Sound,
opposite Rye, N. Y.
Other heirs refused to recognize the
Sinclair-Go offspring until the will
of George Jay Gould was probated
June 4, 1928. In that document Mr.
Gould publicly acknowledged the three
as his own, and placed them in the
division of the estate on a virtual
parity with the seven children born
to himself and Mrs. Edith Kingdom
Gould.
