AT Philadelphia

For HeoviIy-CIod
Football Crowd

Clad like a North Pole expedition
and carrying blankets, robes, food
and other items designed to COM
bat the cold, crowd that railroad
officials estimated set new record
for the occasion-probably upwards
of 10000 swept through Union Sta
tion this morning bound for the
Army-Navy game in Philadelphia
this afternoon.
Fifteen special trains were re-
quired to take care of the overflow
after the Pennsylvania and Balti-
more g. Ohio regular trains had
pulled out. taxed to capacity, and
as the last special eased away just
at $50 large group of late arrivals
found only standing room in the
coaches.
All strata of Washington society,
as usual, sent its contingent, with
the armed services. naturally, the
most strongly represented. But
other points also we're contributing
their partisans, a special train from
Richmond getting in early with a
large party headed for the clash.
1t was evident that the storm
had done its work by driving the
gridiron enthusiasts OF the high
ways.
The first special train was sched-
uled to leave at $50, and as the van
guard of the departing throng began
reaching Union Station, police were
confronted with bad traffic tangle.
A special detail of four motor
cycle policemen. two foot officers
and motor cycle sergeant was dis
patched to the scene in response to
emergency calls, and despite the icy
condition of surrounding streets,
shortly had traffic moving in orderly
fashion.
Railroad officials had anticipated
large turnout and had made ar
rangements accordingly, but it was
relieved group that saw the last
of the trains under way.
Secretary of War Woodring led
one official contingent to the game.

BY the Associated Press.
A proposal that administration Of
relief be turned over to bipartisan
State boards came from group
of Democratic Senators today amid
reports that President Roosevelt
may ask changes in present relief
machinery.
Senator Burke, Democrat, of Ne
braska said Senator Bailey, Demo-
crat, of North Carolina was drafting
a bill to decentralize relief and
that several Democratic Senators
who have been critical of admins
tration policies had agreed to sup
port it,
Meantime informed persons said
numerous changes in w. P. A. and
allied programs were being discussed
by Harry Hopkins. the relief ad-
ministrator. and other administra-
ton officials.
They added that nothing definite
has been decided, but that there
was considerable likelihood some
changes would be approved and
recommended to the new Congress
by the President.
AS explained by Senator Burke,
the Bailey measure would establish
bipartisan relief commissions in
each State to administer relief funds
through bipartisan boards in each
county.
The States would be required to
contribute toward relief costs and
provision would be made for a
gradual "tapering off" of Federal
expenditures as the States became
able to take care of their needy.
There already had been indications
that relief would be subject of
major controversy in the new Con-
gress.
Senator McNary of Oregon, the
Senate minority leader. said yester-
day Republicans would concentrate
their efforts on turning the admin
istration of relief back to the States
and also would demand an investi-
CATION of reports of politics in w.

Senator Burke said Democrats
backing the Bailey measure would
welcome Republican support, but
added:
This is a Democratic move, con-
ceived by Democrats and sponsored
by Democrats.
"The particular object of this plan
is to accomplish economy. There
can be no doubt that relief can be
administered more economically by
boards that are on the ground than
from Washington"
Those who disclosed the admins
tration was considering revision of
the existing relief set-up said the
proposals under discussion included:
Creation of an advisory board to
aid the administrator in shaping re-
lief policies.
Establishment of a co-ordinated
relief organization on a permanent
basis-perhaps within the framework
of a regular Government depart
ment.

BARBARA, HUBBY
 REALLY PARTED
Divorce in Prospect Say Reliable Sources; Son Is Cause of Disagreement

Paris, June 27-(UP) - Countess Barbara Hutton Haugwitz-Revent- low and her Danish husband have definitely separated and divorce is in prospect, a well informed source said today.
 It was asserted that disagreement had been developing for two or three months and was now com- plete - and apparently final. The disagreement centered, it was said, in the future of Lance, the two year old son of Count Court Haugwitz- Reventlow and the $40,000,000 American five-and-ten-cent store heiress. According to informant, the Countess thought that the Count was trying to over-accent his pa- ternal authority as regards the child.
 Any definite settlement of the af- fairs of the Count and Countess, it was said, may involve financial agreement.
 Information was that Barbaras father, Franklyn L. Hutton, who like the Count is in Paris, were somewhat puzzled at first by the situation and sent young James Donahue, Barbara's cousin. to Lon- don to ask her just what had hap pened and what she intended to do.
 From Copenhagen it was reported that both the Countess and the Count had engaged lawyers in an- tieipation of formal separation and eventual divorce. The future Of the child, it was said, would be an important part of any negotia- tions.
 Henning Hepsdorph, an expert on Danish and British law, has left far London to consult the Count ess at her telephonic request, the United Press Copenhagen bureau reported. It was reported that HaugWitz-Reventlow had consulted Ane Kemp, Copenhagen lawyer, and that Kemp sent Bunch Jen- sen, his associate, to Paris to see the count.
 The Countess was reported sill in London. The fact that a police guard over her residence had been relaxed was interpreted as indicat- ing that she no longer feared so acutely an attempt to take her child away from her.
