MaysElaRs Widow
Declines Pension

WASHINGTON, Dec. 25 (AP)-
Mrs Thomas r. Marshal does not
want the $4,000 annual pension
which congress has been asked to
grant the widow of the former vice
president.
Sire has written Repr SENTATIVE
.Aldrieh; VI Repub liean, off, Rhode
Island, requesting him to withdraw
his bill which seeks to give her the
annuity.
Informing Chairman Knutson of
the House pensions committee of
Mrs. Marshalls wishes, Aldrich
said the sale of the late vice presi-
dents memoirs had exceeded all
expectations and that the revenue
derived therefrom was so substan-
tial that she does not feel justified
in accepting a pension.
1t has been customary to grant
pensions to widows of former
presidents. Mrs. Theodore Roose-
welt receives annually $4,000. Pres
ident Cleveland's widow also was
given that amount

pARISIANS HOLD
SWIMMING RACE
IN BITTER COLD

PARIS, Dec 25 (AP)-In the
bitter cold of the Christmas twi-
light, thousands of Parisians shiv-
cred and smiled this evening at
the spectacle of a swimming race
in the almost icy water Of the
Seine.
1t was the coolest Christmas the
French capital has experienced in
more than twenty years but this
did not deter a score of swimmers
from plunging into the river whose
temperature was barely one de-
gree above freezing point. The
atmosphre was almost down to 90
degrees fahrenheit and sharp
singing wind made it feel even
colder.
For this reason The annual
Christmas race, instituted long be-
fore the war, seemed more droll
than ever before, and since there
is nothing q Frenchman relishes
more than something droll, the
crowd Of spectators was the larg-
est ever assembled for the mid
winter swim.

again tackled the job of opening
parcels, reading hundreds Of tele-

intermittent wintry showers and
the absence of scores of congress

had gone back home" for the hol-

Only part of the presidents cab

of its members, Secretary Davis,

Socialist Break Over
Birth Control Looms

LONDON, Dec. "a (AP)-The So
cialist Party in England is threat
ened with a split over birth con-
troll.
Proponents Of the idea want an
understanding that in a future gen
eral election, the Socialist Party
will adopt birth control teaching as
a part of its platform. They say
that the advice which is open to
any married woman who has the
money to pay her private physician
should be given the poor woman
free of charge.
The executives Of the Party, how
ever, reported that birth control
was matter for individual deci
sion and could not be made a
party cry. The report, however,
was referred back for further con-
sideration.
