Deaths of Husband and Wife
Reveal Strange Story of
War Bridegroom.
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, August 31-An in
ternational Enoch Arden story in
real life, with tragic ending, has
been disclosed with the suicides of
Walter J. Fitzpatrick, a manufac-
turer, and his wife. .-
Mrs. Fitzpatrick, as Belgian girl,
was married previously to a British
officer in a war romance. Believing
he had been killed in action, she came
to this country and married Fitz-
patrick. Then the first husband re-
appeared. Like the fictional Enoch
Arden he went away. But, unlike
the case of his prototype, he revealed
himself, and marital unhappiness fol-
lowed his departure.
Mrs. Fitzpatrick was found asphyx-
lated in her Kew Gardens apartment
last Friday. Dressed in an evening
gown of yellow silk, she had evidently
turned on the burners of a range in
the kitchen.
Police notified her husband. who

European economic recovery, which
Is aiding American business. is the
outstanding topic OF international
business. he said. He pointed to
more than 100 commercial treaties
since the World War with most ia
vored nation" clauses in the minor
itN as evidence that this recovery
has made substantial progress.
Through comparisons OF foreign
trade teXports plus importsl of the
year 1913 and the fiscal year l924-25,
he showed that, while the United
States foreign trade increased 80 per
cent, that of France advanced per
cent, Great Britain. to, about the pre-
war level. and Germany to p per
cent below her 1918 commerce.
Some OF the difficulties ahead for
the United States trade in Europe
and Latin America he cited We're:
Restrictions on essential raw ma
terials, still remaining from wartime
Influences.
Nationalistic propaganda against
American merchandise.
Participation of governments il
business.
We cannot take exception to such
measures as the imperial preference
program whereby Britain is endeavor
ing to weld the empire into a stronger
economic unit, unless, of course, there
be some specific discrimination against
American merchandise compared with
that from other foreign countries. The
only effective answer to such a pro-
gram can be found through the
achievement of admitted superiority
on the part of our wares in quality
or price or service
