The two families of the 28-year-old
bridegroom and the 23-year-old bride,
the witnesses. and a few OF their
closest friends afterward went to a
wedding luncheon in the premier S
apartment in the foreign office.
Hailed throughout France as a love
match, the marriage today followed a
long friendship between Mile Laval
and Count Chambrun. A comely
brunette, the bride had been wooed
by many young Frenchmen. all Of
whom she had previously refused be-
cause she suspected their attentions
were inspired partly by political am
bitions
Count Char1brun, member of the
New York and Paris bars, is just start
ing his law practice in the French
capital. His mother is the former
Clara Longworth of Cincinnati. His
father Won distinction as commander
of colonial troops in North Africa
prior to his retirement year ago.
Mile. Laval, familiarly called "Jo-
sette," has interested herself in her
fathers Official affairs, often accom-
panying him on diplomatic journeys
as his secretary. She visited the
United States in 1881, when the
premier conferred with former Presi-
dent Hoover.
The French Federation for Large
Families expressed the hope the mar
riage would result in many children.
Its members adopted a resolution to
that effect.

There was real mourning around
here among politicians and statesmen
at the news of the death of Will
Rogers. He knew them all, and they
admired his exceptional character
They would get peeved at him once in
a while for his comments, as, for in
stance, the time last Winter when he
gave an unreported speech at big
dinner here. 1t did not get out, but
the President was upset because Will
lampooned the World Court. Some
others were offended because he spoke
Of the Supreme Court as some old
gentlemen in kimonos."
When Will heard about the
reaction to his speech he Dds ap-
pdrently more distressed than at
any other time in his life He
tDorried about it for tDeeks, ,Drittng
letters to dozens OF statesmen, er-
planning that he had intended no
ofense.
Whenever a public man dies, his
friends always say what loss it is
to the Nation. This time their words
mean something, because they realize
Rogers was the only national force
for good humor in politics, at time
when it is needed.
At last a name has been found
for the waif-like tax bill. 1t will be
known forever after as 'the whale
oil tax bill" A Senator dubbed 1t
that in the cloakroom, after an amend
ment was adopted repeating the
cents q pound duty on sperm oil. The
amendment will be lost later, but not
the name, because the bill at least
aims q harpoon at the whales OF
business and industry. Also, whale
oil is quite greasy substance.

What's What
Behind News
In Capital
Ohio Political Test
Avoided,-and Not
Quite Subtly.
ny PAUL MALLON,

vF YOU get Ohio politicians here
of in a corner you will have no
difficulty learning why Gov. Davey
1 is in no hurry to have an early
congressional election in the State
which has mothered many Presidents
and smothered several others.
Best Democrat seers will candidly
tell you they have had their fingers
crossed on Ohio since the Rhode
Island election. You could not get a
real bet out of any Of them that they
would carry the State today.
On the other hand, Republican crys-
tai gazers see the possibilities Of a
Republican majority ranging from
100000 to 100000 votes.
There has rarely been show like
the one Gov. Davey put on when he
came down here to wheedle twenty
million public works dollars out of
President Roosevelt.
Ddvey has been here many times
before, travelling alone. This time
he tDas accompanied by tDo mill
tury aides in uniform, the Demo-
cratic State chairman and the
publicity man for the Democratic
State Committee.
Those who saw the well-chosen group
draw up at the White House judged
that the Governor wanted to make
more of political impression than a
financial one. At least no financial
authorities accompanied him.

DEATH |SFORECAST
FOR FARM AID BILL
Moratorium Move to Die in
House, Those at White
House ParIey Say.
By the Associated Press.

oy IIlc hSSOCIdlcQ
With the Senate moving today into
debate on the Frazier-Lemke farm
moratorium bill, some Democratic
leaders predicted 1t would not become
law this session.
Legislators who did not wish to be
quoted by name, but who were famil-
lar with the eleventh-hour legislative
drive mapped at White House con-
ference of Democratic leaders last
night, forecast that the bill would
pass the Senate, but that the House
would not act on it now.
The measure, intended to replace
moratorium legislation which the
Supreme Court ruled unconstitu-
tional. would permit bankrupt farm
ers to retain their lands three years.
1t is distinct from another Frazier
Lemke bill, which would authorize
So ,000, 100000 in new money to re-
finance farm debts.
Representative Lemke. Republican
of North Dakota, referred TO fore
closure riots in Missouri in urging
passage Of the bill, Of which he is CO.
author.
That's just the beginning" he
said. Unless Congress acts before
adjournment. there will be disturb
ances that this country has never
experienced"
Lemke outlined the bills provisions
as follows:
A farmer dissatisfied with concilia-
ton proceedings could file in bank
ruptcy. A court then could permit
him to remain in possession of his
property up to three years by paying
a reasonable rental fixed by the
court. After taxes and insurance
we're paid, any surplus from this
rental would 60 to creditors.
During the three years, or at the
end of the period, the farmer could
reacquire his property by paying the
appraised value. II creditor was
dissatisfied with the appraised value,
he could seek another appraisal, or
demand that the farm be sold at
auction. Secured creditors could bid
up to the appraised value, or the
principal that the property secures,
whichever was higher.
For 80 days thereafter, the debtor
would have the right to redeem the
property from the sale.

D. C. SECURITY BILLS
ACTION DUE TODAY
Ellenbogen Expects to Offer Mo-

on Three Measures.

House action on conference reports
on three social security bills for the
District Of Columbia was expected
today. Representative Ellenbogen,
Democrat, of Pennsylvania. expected
to be recognized to offer the motions
The unemployment insurance mea-
sure was entirely rewritten in the
Senate. where the House bill was
stricken out after the enacting clause.
Representative Ellenbogen, who spon-
sored the House measure. objects to
two important features of the bill as
it passed the Senate. One of these
eliminates District contribution.
This reduction in funds would cause
the cutting down Of the weekly bene-
fits from a 26 to a Is week period
He objects also to the provision in
the Senate bill for a local administra-
tive board and supports a proposal
for a national board Of administra-
ton. He will ask that the bill be sent
back to conference.
Minor amendments in both the bill
providing pensions for the blind and
old age pensions are acceptable to the
House conferees, Mr.. Ellenbogen said.
and he will ask the House to approve
the conference agreement on both
these measures.

Averting a strike movement yester-
day at The Washington Navy Yard,
union officials propose to ask Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Secretary Swan
son, as we'll as chairmen of the Sen
ate and House Naval Committees. to
prevent discharge of so toolmakers
August 81 This was the result Of q
mass meeting of protest. held yester-
day in a three-hour session at the
Avenue Grand Theater, Seventh street
and Pennsylvania avenue southeast,
and attended by some 1000 workmen.
While the Navy Yard workmen ex-
pressed fear that the lay-off Of the so
toolmakers was but the prelude to a
program Of sizable discharges, Capt.
wilhelm L. Friedell, senior inspector
at the naval gun factory at the yard,
declared today: 1T is not the start
of a lay-of program, except where we
find that we have more men than we
can handle for the particular work
in hand"
Tools Are Made First.
He explained that when the navy
yard gets project to make new guns,
the tools are made first. Then the
machinists take hold. 1t Is manifest.
said he, tnat the work of the tool
maker gives out before that Of the
machinist.
N p. Alifas, president of District
No. A of the International Associa-
ton of Machinists, who addressed the
meeting, said today that the workers
case had been laid before Rear Ad-
miral Henry e. Lackey. in charge of
naval shore establishments. Alifas
explained that the introduction of
machine operators is worrying the
men. This means, he said, that a
lower grade of mechanics is used to
operate machines that are more or
less automatic. The Washington Navy
Yard, he declared. requires higher
type of workmanship.
Provisions for Toolmakers.
The union ofiicials want the tool
makers, slated for discharge, to be
absorbed In the plant and given ma
chinists' billets. Newton p. Weathers-
by, president of Columbia Lodge, No.
174, of the Machinists' Union, laid q
report before the meeting on the situ-
alton that gave rise to the protest.
Answering the workers charge that
work at the yard is being let out to
private concerns, thus tending to
lessen employment at the gun factory,
Capt. Friedell said: THE work that
has been let out to private concerns
is work which the Washington yard
is not equipped to do. Work trans
ferred to the Army was necessary in
order to meet the dates Of completion
Of the ships. 1t is necessary to have
the guns ready to put on the ships
when the builders are in a position to
accept them"

M. Landon, budget-balancing Gov

ing third among Republican presiden-

only he and his intimates know it.

He made no effort to hide the fact
he considers it highly complimentary
that his two terms as Governor of
Kansas have attracted favorable ma

add to the 'Landon talk"
Friends Are Delighted.
Friends, however, were delighted
with results Of the recent poll of
presidential timber taken among
county G. o. p. chairmen by Robert
H. Lucas, former director of the Re-
publican National Committee.
Landon placed third in a field of
more than a dozen. Only Senator
Borah of Idaho and Col. Frank Knox,
publisher of the Chicago Daily News
received more votes.
Landon Not Active.
A source close to Landon pointed
out the Kansas Governor never has
hinted he will be a candidate and has
made no move to draw support to
himself. and termed the results OF
the poll significant"
Landon followers feel that his elec-
ton as Governor twice in the face
of unusually heavy Democratic pres
sure-in 1882 and l934-and his
record of economy in Office, make him
a logical opponent for President
Roosevelt in 1886.
