MADE ISSUE IN SUIT
Former Mi|Iicent Rogers
Husband Seeks Custody of
Child Held by Mother.
By the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, October 19.--The ques-
ton of whether 2-year-old Peter Salm
Hoogstraeten is to become an Austrian
or an American will be the chief issue
in the trial set for next Monday OF
Count Ludwig Salm Hoogstraeten's
suit for separation against his wife,
the former Millicent Rogers
Counsel for the count said that the
chief point Of issue in the trial would
be the custody of the child. Peter is
now living with his mother. Count
Salm Hoogstraeten will ask the court
to award the boy to him.
The count never saw the boy until
he was more than a year old, the
child having been born in this coun-
try after the countess had left her
husband in Europe and returned to
her father, H. H. Rogers. She is
heiress to part Of the Standard Oil
fortune left by the late III. H. Rogers.
In December, 1925, while the count
ess was living in Palm Beach, Fla,
with her son, it was reported that an
attempt was made to kidnap the boy.
Detectives were employed to guard
the house. Count Salm, through his
attorney, characterized this preca
as q useless display of eXtrava-
gance," and the attorney denied that
the count was in any way responsible
for what had happened.

EVANGELIST LEANS
ON KIDNAPPING TALE
Mrs. Mcpherson Sticks to
Her Story as Defense
Fight Opens.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES. Calf, October 10.
Attorneys for Aimee Senple Nc
Pherson, the evangelist, charged with
criminal conspiracy, indicated today
that the story told by her before the
county grand jury about being kid
naped and held for ransom was her
story and "she would stick to It,"
This was made known in connection
with announced plans for beginning
the defense testimony in the case in
which Mrs. Mcpherson. the pastors
mother, Mrs. Minnie Kennedy; Mrs.
Lorraine Wiseman-Sielaf and Ken
meth OrmiSton, former Angelus Tenn
pie radio operator, are defendants.
Whether the evangelist and her
mother would take the stand has not
been determined, w. I. Gilbert, chief
defense counsel, said today. A large
number Of other probable witnesses
for the defense were notified to be on
hand when the preliminary hearing
resumed in Municipal Court.
The prosecution indicated that Mil
ton Carlson. handwriting expert,
would be the last States witness
called. Carlson's expert testimony
is relied upon by the prosecution to
identify the handwriting of the gro
Gerry slips found in q cottage vacated
by Ormiston and a mysterious woman
companion after a sotourn at Carmel
by-the-Sea last May. Carlson also is
expected to identify the original
chirography of numerous kilograms
and signatures on hotel registers.
Miss Bernice Morris, secretary to
the late r. A. Mckinley, blind attor-
ney OF Long Beach, and one Of the
evangelist's accusers, today faced
further gr1lling at the hands of At
torney Gilbert.
One of the counts in the conspiracy
charges against Mrs. Mcpherson and
her mother specifies that they con-
spired with Mckinley to manufacture
false evidence to subStantiate the
evangelist's story Of having been kid
naped by two men and a woman and
held for ransom. Mckinley recently
was killed in an automobile accident.
During the closing hours of yester-
days court session Miss Morris
underwent a grilling cross+examina-
ton which failed to shake her original
story that she had been tmportuned
by Mrs. Mcpherson and her mother
to continue the work" undertaken
by Mckinley to produce "kidnapers"
to support the evangelist's abduction
story.
Miss Morris told Of several trips
made to Angelus Temple at Mrs.
McPherson's request.
Miss Morris said that on one occa-
sion she was handed a, $40 bill by
Mrs. Kennedy with the promise well
have something nice for you the next
time"

BETTER WELFARE
/ FACILITIES URGED
Monday Evening Club Votes
to Cooperate With House
District Committee.

The Monday Evening Club last
night, at a meeting in the Grace
Dodge Hotel, voted to take up with
he special subcommittee of the
House District committee for inveSti-
eating District affairs the question of
securing adequate local public vel
fare facilities to function under up
todate laws.
Decision was reached to present a
revised social service program before
the committee when action was taken
on a motion presented by Walter S.
ITfford of the Associated Charities and
long prominent in District welfare
work. His motion was for the club
TO make a complete revision of its
social service program, adopted in
1913. to make it meet the needs both
of the present and future.
Mr.. Ufford's motion followed ad-
dresses on District needs by George
=. Wilson, director Of public welfare;
former District Commissioner Louis
Brownlow, and DR.. Loren B. T. John
son Of the hospital staff Of st. Eliza
beth'S.
Complete Revision Urged.
Mr.. Ufford emphasized the need OF
a complete revision Of the program as
the first step toward meeting I'M
mediate needs emphasized by the
speakers. Mrs. Archibold Hopkins,
president, was authorized to appoint
special committee to redraft the
program.
Mr.. Wilson emphasized that many
Antiquated laws Will. have to be mod
ernized in order that public welfare
may be properly looked after, even
with adequate housing facilities,
which he's stated are lacking.
He advocated a codif1cation and re-
vision Of District welfare laws in
general, stating: "Some of them are
80 antique that IL they were brought
TO light Congress and the people
would certainly want them changed.
He said there are no fundamental
laws governing penal institutions in
the District and that the substantive
laws date back more than a half
century in many instances. Il would
like to see our municipal laws codi-
fed he continued.
Several Cases Cited.
Among institutions mentioned by
Mr. Wilson as having inadequate
housing and other facilities were the
District Training School for the
Feeble Minded. which with recent i'm
provements completed will house
about $50, he said, where there is a
need for adequate facilities for 600,
and Gallinger Hospital, for which an
appropriation of 100000 is practically
assured, but which sum will not pro-
vide adequate needs for the future.
DIR. Johnson dwelt on the need Of
q mental hygiene clinic in the Dis
trict. He deplored the present jury
system of admitting persons to st.
Ilizabeth's.
Former Commissioner Brownlow
urged the continuation of a central
ICED form of government and told of
dangers to be derived from decentral-
iZation.
Mrs. Ernest r. Grant charged that
the "local tubercular exclusion law
forbidding children suffering from tu-
berculosis from attending school with
other children--'is not worth the
paper it is written on"
Mrs. Nina c. Van Wrinkle. chief of
the Women's Bureau, deplored many
regulations governing cases under her
jurisdiction.
