Nm Fuss Wanted

New York, Jan. 25 R>-If the wife
Of one and the mother of the other

will be no fuss made over the
heroes of the rescue Of tho crew OF
the steamer Florida when they get

transferring the Florida's passengers

would prefer to have no demonstra-

Mrs. Fried spoke of the festivities
in honor of Captain Fried three
years ago after he accomplished the
rescue OF tho rs man crew OF the
British freighter Antinoe In circum-
stances similar to the rescue OF the
Florida's crew, and said she would
not permit him to be subjected 10
such a strain again.

said, ITO permit my husband to ar

we expect may happen once in q

righted radio dispatch from the
steamship America saying the crew

The dispatch said tho rescue OF
the Florida crew was effected by

members of the Americas crew and
required two hours.
A violent squall prevented the

boat.
Twenty-one are confined TO the

KAISER'S SISTER
TALKS DIVORCE
Princess Leaves Husband
for Love, Rumor Says.

BIZ United Press
PARIS, May 20.-The matrimonial
craft of the former kaiser's sister,
Princess Victoria, and her Russian
boy husband. Baron" Won zoubkov,
apparently has entered rough waters
and rumors in Paris today said that
the princess would obtain a divorce
and leave for America on a lecture
tour.
If the princess makes good her
divorce threat, it will be not be-
cause of a cooling of her ardor, but
because she loves her young hus-
band, it is said.
When Serge Zoubkov was a Rus
sian refugee out of job in Berlin,
he was free to come and go. AS
soon as he became husband of the
princess and she knighted him and
dubbed him baron" using for the
ceremony a sabre which once be-
longed to her imperial brother, he
became an undesirable foreigner
and was ordered out of Germany.
Now to get her husband back
into Germany, Princess Victoria
may have to agree to divorce him
and perhaps he can re-enter as a
Russian refugee.
Baron" Won Zoubkov now is in
Luxembourg, the only spot on the
continent open to him.

WASHINGTON, May 20.-Faith-
full members of the Sunday school
flock of a Sperryville (Va0 church

ance of President Herbert Hoover
at their morning services.
The President and small party
who spent Saturday night camping
in Shenandoah National park
motored to Sperryville to attend
church services, in preference to re-
turning early to the capital. The
number of automobiles parked near
the Reynolds Memorial Baptist
church of that city convinced them
church services were in progress
there. On entering, however, it was
discovered Sunday school was in
session.

guests was known, the superintend-
ent and his teachers hastily revised

among them who were brave enough
to shake hands with the President.

THURMAN IN CAPITAL
Believed Seeking Post as
Revenue Head.

BIZ Times Special
WASHINGTON, May 20.-Con-
ferenceS Of M. Burt Thurman of In
dianapolis with several high Repub-
lican leaders here today led to the
report he is trying to land appoint
ment by President Herbert Hoover
as commissioner of internal revenue.
Thurman formerly was collector
of internal revenue for Indiana. He
managed Senator James E. Watson'S
presidential nomination race against
Hoover.
Watson recently has been cooper
ating in the Hoover legislation pro-
gram and Humans friends
thought this might have some bear
ing on allaying natural antipathy
of Hoover forces toward anyone con-
nected with Watson, the outgrowth
of the bitter Indiana primary in
1928.
Thurman also is understood to be
advancing the cause of Miss Dor
othy Cunningham, Republican ma
tional committeewoman of Indiana,
who has been mentioned to succeed
Thurman's son-in-law, Jack Foote,
as collector in Indiana.

BRANDED BUNK
Mcbride Says Dry Regime
Doesn't Cost Billion.

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, May 20.-F. Scott
Mcbride, general superintendent OF
the Saloon League, brands as
pure bunk" the recent statement OF
the Association Against the Prohibi-
ton Amendment that the expert
ment of prohibition" is costing the
American people close to a billion
dollars annually.
The widely published wet claim
that prohibition costs billion a
year is 98.2 per cent pure bunk, p"
Mcbride said in a statement. Only
$36,000,000 of the amount charged
against prohibition was spent for
enforcement and half of that is re-
turned in fines, penalties and for
FIXTURES.
The combining of estimated rev.
enue losses with actual enforce
ment appropriations and solemnly
announcing the total as prohibition
enforcement costs was an amazing
wet publicity hoax"
Nationwide first page news prom
inence, followed by editorial COM
ment, Mcbride said, has given the
public the impression that prohibit
ton is costly.

Meanwhile, eight of the original
eighteen passengers were waiting
patiently for the ship to be repaired
sufficiently for the Friedrichshafen
trip. In spite of their narrowing ex-
perience in the storm over France
last Friday the faithful eight have
complete confidence in the Graf
Zeppelin and most of them hope to
go to the United States on it.
Mrs. Mary Pierce Of New York,
the only woman passenger on ths
ship when she started for the United

whether she would return to Ameri-

Zeppelin. She wireleSsed her family
in New York calming their fears
that she would return by air, but on
the other hand her enthusiasm for
resuming the flight is so great that
she may wait until the dirigible is
repaired and ready for a new start.

FLYING COP IN BAD
HaIStead Aids Publicity
Stunt, Airmen Charge.

Indianapolis aviators today indig-
nantly discussed a publicity stunt
staged Sunday by Sergeant Earl
Halstead, the flying cop, for local
amusement park.
HalsGead chased a plane Of the
Capitol airport loaded with four
passengers, to the ground by zoom-
ing closely around it on the score
that some one in an airplane had
been getting too close to a balloon
from the amusement park.
The passengers and aviator said
they were not within a half-mile of
the balloon. Department of Com
merce regulations permit airplanes
to go within 500 feet of a balloon.
The same regulations prohibit one
airplane from flying within 800 feet
OF another. The plane passengers
contended Halstead flew so close to
them that they feared a crash.
