France Again Near
Crisis in Financial
Affairs of Republic

Paris, June S-lP)-The political
situation tonight is growing more and
more disturbed and seems heading for
a crisis. NJ. Peret, the finance minis
ter, who is the principal advocate of
the government, is representing to
alF parties as indispensable the rapid
passage of measures for financial re-
Mobilization, and is understood to be
SO insistent on this point that he may
so so far as to resign, if he fails to
have his way.
Should the cabinet share his opin-
ion it would be necessary for the
ministers to resign in a body, to en-
able Premier BRAND to recoustitute
his administration. and there is a
strong feeling that ministerial cri-
sis, however, rapidly settled, would
have serious disadvantages at a mo-
ment when all efforts are being bent
upon raising the value of the franc.
Premier BRAND is on his way to
Paris from Geneva and will have
consultations early tomorrow with his
ministerial colleagues at the foreign
office previous to the formal cabinet
council at the Elysee palace, where
President Doumergue will preside
and at which the momentous decision
will be taken as to whether the gov
eminent will continue as at present
or adopt NJ. Peret's proposal for
national union ministry.
In any case. should the decision 60
against M. Peret nothing will be left
undone to induce him to remain in
the cabinet.
1t is no impossible, although highly
improbable that NJ. BRAND may de-
eide to resign altogether, in which
case the name of Louis Barthou
would be put forward to head a ma
tional union ministry.

Seek BrOOkhart's
Views on Farm
Relief Legislation

Des Moines, Iowa, June 8-(By
The Associated Press)-Opce again
Iowa voters are watching the maneu-
vers Of Col, Smith w. Brookhart who
defeated Senator Albert B. Cnmmins
for the Republican senatorial noml-
nation in yesterdays primary cleo
ton.
Interest centers in Brookharts
ideas of legislation designed to i'm
prove the condition of agriculture
for the trend of his action on nation
al issues by which they may Judge
his probable relations with Republi-
can party leaders and for political
developments that may have bear
ing on his coming attempt to return
to the senate at the November cleo
ton.
Brookhart has planned to return
to Washington where he was ousted
from the senate two months ago and
where he will take up his advocacy
of farm legislation where he left 1t
to return to Iowa to fight for the
nomination. He reached here to-
night enroute to Mason City where
he speaks at the State Federation of
Labor convention tomorrow. Then
he will depart for the capital.
The coloners - nomination had
scarcely been definitely established
when he announced his plans to join
the corn belt committee in Washingl
ton and carry out his pledge to the
voters. that he would, if re-nominat-
ed, make farp relief legislation his
chief purpose.
The nominee declared he would
seek real beneficial legislation" but
did not go into detail as to which Of
the numerous proposals before con-
gress he would support. He has
been supporter of the Haugen
plan, however, and it was believed no
would endeavor. along with the 9TH

Loyalty of Garlanfs
Wife Wanes; Seeks
Divorce i'm Bay State

Barnstable, Mass, June 8.-(R)-
Mrs. Mary Wrenn Garland. wife Of
Charles Garland of April Farm
fame, whose repeated declarations
of loyalty to her husband despite the
fact that she knew his soul mates"
were also living at the farm in Car
yer and later at Allentown, Penna..
because of his love affairs, yester-
day filed a divorce libel in the coun-
ty court here.
The petition was filed by the law
firm of Warren. Garfield, Whitman
and Lamson of Boston, appearing
for Mrs. Garland. 1t alleges adult
cry on the part OF Garland.
Mrs. Garland was Mary wrenn Of
Dedham before her marriage.
Mrs. Garland figured prominently
in the first April farm venture at
Carver when she refused to continue
to live at the farm. There have been
several reconciliations between the
two. After the closing OF the Carver
April farm the two were united. The
present trouble is believed to date
to Garland'S more recent entrance
into the limelight when he attempt
ed to establish. and secure state
charter for a second April Farm
near Allentown, Pa.
Following the death of an infant
born to one of the feminine MEM
bers of the farm Garland was ar
raigned in the courts of that county.
The mother of the baby stated that
Garland was its father.
Charles fuller Garland is the son
of the late James A. Garland. mil
lionaire sportsman and famous
horse fancier Of Boston. The young
man was educated in Harvard from
where he graduated. When his
father died and left him practically
a million dollars. the young man
who had been inclined to socialistio
and bohemian ideas, declined to ac-
cept the legacy and gave 1t away
for the benefit of mankind"
In April 1924 Garland refused an
other legacy, this time the bequest
of $S8,000 from his grandmother,
Anne Louise Garland.

Of course We are both very shy
about the whole affair.
I'VE have already got the engage
ment ring, and the marriage takes
place next week.
The Graphic also quotes Countess
Cathcart as saying: Although my
fiance looks so English, he is really
an American. So l shall be an
American too"
Boissevain is % years of age and
well known in England's society, the
paper adds, and has often been de-
scribed as the best dressed Young
man in London.
Fera's supposed bethrothaI to
Ralph Neale, English playwright. is
mentioned by the Graphic, but with
out explanation.
Cathcart's visit to the United States
last March, she announced that she
was engaged to marry Ralph Neale,
English playwright. While she was
detained at Ellis Island because of
her affair with the young Earl OF
Craven, which resulted in her di-
vorce. Mr.. Neale cabled President
Coolidge, Secretary of Labor Davis
and other officials in an effort to
have his tiance admitted to the
country.
When Commissioner of Immigra-
ton Curran decided to exclude the
countess on grounds Of moral turp-
itude' and was upheld by the sec
rotary of Labor, Neale denounced
the United States government as
autocratic and appealed to the wo-
men of America to aid the countess
in her fight to enter the country.
The countess, after lengthy leg
al battle, was finally admitted tenn
porarily. She sold the rights to her
play "Ashes of Love- to Earl Carol
and began rehearsals of the leading
role. It was while the countess
status was still in doubt and she
was in the country on a writ Of
habeas corpus that she attended the
bath tub party" at CAROLS thea
tire. where a nude chorus girl was
alleged to have bathed in wine. The
producer was recently convicted of
perjury in connection with the
party. When the first reports of the
bath tub incident were published the
countess said she saw nothing i'm
proper" at the party.
Her play, said to have been mod
elled on her elopement to South AZ
RIGA with the young Earl of Craven,
opened disastrously in Washington.
The critics were unanimous in con-
demning it. And shortly afterward.
the countess bought back the rights
to it's production from Mr.. Carroll.
She brought the play to Broadway.
but after week of scant audiences
withdrew it and announced her I'M
pending departure for England. At
the time. she said that one Of her
reasons for leaving America before
her six months time limit was up
was the illness of Mr. Neale in Lon
don. She sailed on the Berengaria
on March 81, admitting that she
was forced to borrow passage mon
ey from friends.
