CHILDREN PREFER THEIR
 MOTHER TO RICH HOME
New York Youngsters Find that Mother Love Is Better
 Than Wealth.
Than Wealth.

New York Oct. 26 CN - A ten day test convinced Sally and Ed ward Miles that the companionship of their mother is preferable to the wealth of their father.
 Sally is II and Edward is 10. They gave their opinions in court yesterday in their mothers suit to gain custody of them. The mother had only s60 week alimony with which to keep them and a small apartment. William Roy Miles has a big house with plenty of servants and other luxuries. Mrs. Miles is suing for more alimony.
 The case concerning the children reached the courts early this month when they failed to return to the mothers home after spend ing month at their fathers Baby Ion house. as prescribed by a sep aration decision rendered in New Jersey three years ago. The father said they did not wish to leave him and the children confirmed this.
 The court gave the mother ten days in which to win them back.
 During the ten days she per mitted the children to go to the movies four times, she said, and once took hike with the boy. She let them both play football, and saw to it only that they lived as they would ordinarily with her. When asked by the judge which parent they preferred to live with, both Sally and Edward named their mother.

 Chance at White House.

New York. Oct. 26 LF9 - The chief candidates in the race for governor and United States senator continued today their campaign in the metropolitan district, which is to last until the eve of election day.
 Ogden L. Mills. republican can didate for governor, invading his opponents territory, the east side of New York, last night, accused the governor of having traded the Sidewalks of New York" for a chance at the White House." He based the attack on the omission from the democratic state platform of any recommendation of nor" liberal immigration rules under which families of naturalized citi zens would be more readily ad mitted to this country.
 Commenting on the governors s statement that Tammany hall is q private society not engaged in poli- tics, he said: If Tammany hall has quit politics they all must have gone into the milk business"
 T have seen some men in my time hungry for public office but none went so far as does Mills, un- less it be Hearst himself,' retorted Gov. Smith, who said the bad milk argument was devised by the New York publisher who is backing Mills.
