DUKES CHILDREN DO
 NOT LOSE LEGITIMACY
Vanderbilt Marlborough Marriage Annulment Status Is Ex-
 plained in Rome.

Rome, Nov. IS LP - The Duke of Marlborough opposed the an- nulment of his marriage to the former Consuelo Vanderbilt until it was explained to him that the two children resulting from the union would not lose their legitimacy.
 This is shown by the motives" for the decision of annulment pro- nounced by the Catholic diocesan court Of Southwark, England. and confirmed by the Holy Rota tri- bunal here, which have just be- come available for publication.
 The explanation given to the duke was that the children re- mained legitimate because the church considers that all marriages which have been consummated have legal force until annulment is pronounced.
 After 1t was proved to him that the marriage was Apparently le- gal" until declared otherwise. he favored the proceedings for annul- ment which were brought by the former duchess

Mrs. Bassette and Mrs. Kirkham Address Commonwealth Club

The audience which attended the Commonwealth club last evening
 were transported from this city into foreign parts when Mrs. B. B. Bas. sette and Mrs. John H. Kirkham gave accounts of their trips, one into the north woods and the other into romantic Spain. Mrs. Bassette told of her hus- bands and her experiences on the
 trail into the deep woods of their spending nights In the open because of losing the trail. of being provided shelte4 by kindly farmers and ot
 finally reaching the Green Noun tain club, far into the hills of Yer mont. The couple spent many days and nights under the beauty Of the virgin forest and her account of their trip enthralled the listeners almost as much as Mr. and Mrs Bassette were themselves overawed by the splendor of the forests that surrounded the camp. Her account of the packs shouldered and of the weary trails covered by the two was realistic and vivid, each listener be- ing fired with the same spirit that made the couple enjoy their trip into the forest.
 Mrs. Bassette was followed by Mrs Kirkham, charmingly attired in a Spanish mantilla to lend effect to the story which she unfolded be- fore the clubs eyes. Her tale was of Spain and it's type of beauty and her story began with the trip from Marseilles to Barcelona where they found a modern city built in a medieval setting. The old wall of the city attracted their attention with it's 52 towers with gilded domes which make a beautiful picture in the setting sun. After viewing the fortress which was stronghold against the Moorish raids of past ages. the party travelled to the Ralearic Islands, where they found that the craze for antique furniture and old paintings was robbing the town of it's old splendor.
 Sargossa, in the middle Of brown arid waste attracted them next. There they found an old Moorsh mosque and the pilgrimage church of Our Lady Of the Broken Pillar. The votive offerings have been set in a shrine, making the a priceless glory of pre- cious stone and gold and silver. Cor doya, next visited, also had Moor ish mosque, characterized by the radiating rows of pillars, giving the of entering a marble for- est.
 Seville. without verdure except in a few irrigated gardens, was next visited and the nights of gaiety were viewed by the tourists. Then Gren- ada and Madrid were seen and ex- cursions to Escorida, the Great Toledo, the city Of damascene steel work, and Bairritz, the overdecorated watering place, the journey.

 and Lets Him Go When He Wants

Greenwich, Conn. Nov. IS LP- Frank Favreau of Southbridge. Mass. who has been spending con- siderable time in jail here lately at kis own request, was again in court this morning, but he did not get another jail sentence. About si- weeks ago, Favreau appeared at po- lice headquarters in an intoxicater condition and requested that he be put in the lookup. He was locked up over night and when he appeared before Judge James R. Mead the next day. he requested that the court send him 10 jail for thirty days.
 His wish was granted.
 Two weeks later the prosecuting attorney received a letter from Fay released and that he wanted to go to work. Judge Mead was agreeable to the plan, and the man was given his freedom after he had served fifteen days.

This time he asked for a suspended sentence, declaring that he would leave town. The prosecuting attorney was agreeable provided Favreau paid the cost of the trial.

NEW ENGLANDERS
 MEET TO DISCUSS
 MUTUAL PROBLEMS
(Continued From First Page)

Mir Goss stated that this propos- ed voluntary agreement was worked out in a series of conferences initi- ated by the council last spring. The groups concerned were special representative appointed by the New England governors 10 cooperate with the New England council in relation to New England power problems and committee created by the New England power com panies to represent them in cooper alton with the council. Five of the governors appointed officers of their state public utilities commissions as their representatives. These two groups in conferences with the councils power committee consider cd various phases of the New Eng land power situation, and found that the state commissions felt a twilight zone was developing in New England in which regulation of power companies under existing law was not effective. due to the development of interstate transmits sion of power.
 Charles l.. Edgar, president Of the Boston Edison company. and chairman of the committee repre- senting the power companies, and W. c. Bliss of the Rhode Is land public utilities commission fol- lowed Mir. Goss in discussing the proposed agreement.
 The committee also recommended that the several New England states join together in making an official survey of their power laws with view of bringing about more uni formity among them as basis for further joint action in relation to power control.
 At the conclusion of the commit tees report Herbert Myrick, presi- dent and editor-i -chief of the New England Homestead. Springfield, Mass, spoke briefly on the St. Law ence power project. While New England has been asleep at the switch to the St. Lawrence power" said Mir. Myrick, "the project has figured largely in the economics and politics of New York. Thus far, that state and the province of On tario have worked on the matter as though those two regions alone had rights In the St. Lawrence power. whereas New England and Quebec have equal rights therein.
 Power from the St. Lawrence to be available throughout rural New England at lower rates than pre- vail in cities is what we want" said Mr. Myrick. Electric power at low rates will make possible the new agriculture. and gradual decentrali- zation of industry from cities into rural districts. This will develop better local markets for farm prod uce. Also it furnishes profitable employment in winter for farm help and pays good wages throughout the year to other workers at their homes or in nearby rural factories.
 So vast are the possibilities of the St. Lawrence project that it makes Muscle Shoals look like thirty cents. MT. Myrick declared. PICK UP ADD
