LOS ANGELES, July 27.-Adolphe
Menjou. screen actor, yesterday was
sued for divorce by Kathryn Carver,
former actress and model, who accused
him Of associating with another woman,
dissipating community property and
threatening her life.
The complaint charged Menjou, the
suave, dapper man-about-town type in
films, told his wife falsehoods. nagged
her. carried on TRADES against their
friends, became intoxicated and upset
her SO she was forced to obtain hos
pital treatment for shock
Several separations and reconcilia-
tons followed their marriage in Paris
in May, 1928.
Asks for Joint Property.
Miss Carver said the community
property was worth $500, 900 and asked
the court to award it all to her She
said her husband earned an average OF
100000 annually in l930-31-32. and
estimated that for 1888 he would earn
$4,000.
She asserted he told her marriage
was 'old fashioned" and his public did
not want to think Of him as a married
man, but as man -about-town." He
suggested, she said, that they live apart
and told her to go with other men if
she wished. The only purpose of mar
rlage to him was to save money on
his income tax, she recited
Menjou Plans Fight.
A court fight on certain phases of
the divorce action was threatened by
Menjou.
"As to the divorce itself" the screen
sophisticate said. she may have it.
But I will resist most vigorously her
charge of infidelity, and will also re-
sist her efforts to obtain any further
property settlement.
In an agreement we signed last
October, Miss Carver expressed herself
as perfectly satisfied with the sums of
money and groups Of securities 1 turned
over to her. I gave her more than half
of what possessed then and consider
she was treated most generously. Our
agreement was entirely legal and be-
lieve 1t will hold in any court"

New York, Aug 6.-They lost the Battle of Washington. the New York "B. E. F." army, but army discipline still rules them in their encampment on luxurious River side Drive. How they built their homes from old theatrical sets, how they live and what they live for, are told in Redbook Magazine:
 .'If you were comfortably well- to-do New Yorker, you could look down from your penthouse in 8 fashionable Riverside Drive apart ment building to a quarter-mile of tiny dilapidated shacks on the banks of the Hudson. About one hundred and twenty-five men com- prise its citizenry. Fifteen years ago most of them went over the top~in France. Many of them were severely wounded. One year ago, with the. rest of that vanquished army,-the B. B. F.-they took part in the Battle of Washington on the doorsteps of the Capitol. When they came back from their futile siege this group got together to find a way Co live.
 "The city wanted to put them up at municipal lodging-houses. bur they didn't want organized charity. The married men with wives and children were forced to seek other help. The single, homeless men without dependents set up their in- genious si1acks with the permission of the park commissioner of New York city. John B. Clark, ex-pri- yate in the A. E. F., has been com mander since the first days Of the colony. When several theatr1ca! warehouses were cleaning out old scenery, they carted old sets ana posters to this ex-B. B. F. village Ito help the inhabitants, and to save dumping costs. The settings of innunera;ble Broadway hits ana fIops have been made into walls and floors and ceilings. The sum total may be x an architectural nightmare-but one remembers that these men are trying 10 make, out of nothing, something in WhichSto live practically ana not too duly. They have lived there one. year, this month. The popula- tion, has shifted and changed; About, seventy-five of the oraginal group have found work, and ocner men have taken their. places. Ke- gently twenty, men were lost to the representation camps. All of them are on the waiting list.
 "Inside each hut is an army cor In some of the larger huts men
 bunk together. Under nearly every
 poor and precarious roof there IS either al small radio or "a Model T phonograph-all donated. Meals are cooked in the community kitchen, but are carried by eacn man to his own shack for eating. Food is supplied largely through the generosity of one man, al though others help at times. They

Officials Failed in
 Effort to Promote Strike

Topeka, Kan. {UP)-County offl- cials did their best to promote q strike, but failed. The commits sioners reduced pay. on the county woodchopping relief task from $40, to $1.2O day with a view of encouraging the unemployed 10 seek work elsewhere. The fnaxi- mum weekly allowable was $4.So.
 The, commissioners felt that If the men could get jobs on farms for $7.50 a week there was no reason to keep them on the county roll
 "But." said Comnissioner Ira Williams, when we told them the county would welcome a strike against the reduced wages. there was small response. Most of them preferred to work for the county. We would be glad if they all would find other jobs and quit us."
