REVOLT HALTED
IN ARGENTINE

BUENOS AIRES, July 81
GNS).-The revolt Of a garri-
son in the thinly-populated prov
ince of Corrientes in northern
Argentina was believed to have
been suppressed today by troops
from the province of Santa Fe.
A semi-official statement is
sued today was as follows:
"At noon Monday a battalion
Of about $50 men revOlted in
the province of COrrienteS. The
government m m d iateIy
adopted measures necessary to
suppress the movement, send
ing infantry battaliOnS from
the province of Santa Fe and
several airplaneS to be used in
case they are needed.
Complete tranquility reignS
throughout the nation and it
is possible that at this hour
the movement has already been
suppressed"
CorrienteS adjoins Paraguay and
Brazil and the population was
believed to have been affected by
the recent troubles in the latter
country.

HUNGER HIKE

ST. CLAIRsVILLE, Ohio, July
81 GN.SD.-Facing a critical
situation Of renewed strike dis
orders that resulted in death yes
terday to two men and a 16-year-
old boy, authorities in the east
ern Ohio and West Virginia coal
mining regions today hastily
modified against a threat of
further serious disturbances.
Staying of William Simon, 16,
a member Of the National Miners
Union, brought the strike situa-
ton to head in the eastern
Ohio coal region yesterday.
Union officials indicated that
their proposed hunger march"
on Steubenville today would take
the form of a protest meeting"
against the shooting, which
marked the first fatality in the
strike zone.
The situation in West Virginia
was intensified by the Staying of
two men, who abandoned the
cause Of the striking miners and
sought to enter the Raymond
City Coal Co. mine in Putnam
county.

KING WONT 7 SEE
|LEANA WE'D

BUCHAREST, July 81 U.SD.
Bitter pre-war national animos-
tiles were today believed re-
Sponsible for the announcement
by King Alexander of Jugoslavia
that he will not attend the wed
ding, July 26, of Princess Ileana
of Rumania and Archduke Anton
of HapSburg.
Queen Marie, the Jugoslavian
monarch's consort, and her two
sons will be present.
In not coming to Rumania
for the wedding, King Alexander
is believed to have bowed to the
bitter resentment toward mem
bers Of the Hapsburg family still
felt among his subjects.
1t was the assassination Of a
Hapsburg prince at Serajevo,
Serbia, now part of Jugoslavia,
which precipitated the world war.

enough to worry them right now
without you mentioning HessianS
in your pageant Maybe they
did come here to fight for money,
but this isn't any time, Mr..
Bloom. to be casting hard words
at poor folks Just trying to make
an honest living. Better leave
the HesSians out, Mr.. Bloom, un-
less you make it clear that they
were just doing it for the wife
and kids at home.
And all this war business, with
soldiers marching and everything
is going to make hard feeling.
There are q lot Of real nice
ladies and gentlemen these days.
Mr.. Bloom, who don't approve of
such goings on. Perhaps. Mr..
Bloom, you might make it a
peace pageant with q lot Of
ladies in cheese cloth. And just
kind Of bring in George Wash
ington, incidentally. by showing
pictures of his old home in Eng
land. Things like that, Mr..
Bloom, and I've q lot more ideas
/ could tell you If you called
me up.
I hope you won't mind me Civ
ing this letter to the newspapers,
Mr.. Bloom. 1t just seemed to
me that all the folks didn't get
