As more than 100 stars swung out

There were those, however. who
rated Mrs. Ware bright chance Of
again capturing the laurels she first
won as girl Of 19 in 1922. While she
has played comparatively little golf

a practice round yesterday. She feels.
however. that her own chances Of
emerging with the title next Saturday
are decidedly in the long-shot class,
This Is one of the strongest fields in
which ever have played and I've been
in II national tournaments, she
smiled. "These championships don't
grow on trees, and there are several
young players who will be hard to stop,
particularly Miss Berg, Mrs. Page,
Kathryn Hemphill and Marion Miley.
Patty Wins Nine Journeys.
Miss Berg, who lost to Mrs. Ware in
the 1885 final at Minneapolis, has
won nine tournaments this year. She
set course record of IS, four under
WeStmoreland's par, in a practice
round last Saturday. Both Miss Miley,
daughter of a Lexington professional,
and Mrs. Page have been playing well.

Geneva, April 19-C CUP) The Spanish Loyalist government asked today that the question of foreign intervention in the Spanish civil war be put on the agenda of the League of Nations council meeting which begins May 9. The request came as Surprise-and one cer- tain to prove unwelcome to Great Britain. Britain had promised Italy to raise before the council the ques- tion of recognition of the conquest of Ethiopia. Now the Loyalist gov ernment. which has long accused Italy and Germany of intervening directly in behalf of the Nation alists, threatened to raise 8 new problem which had brought Europe near to war on more than one oc- casion.
 Only last Saturday, at Barcelona, the Loyalist defense ministry charged that at least IS Italian air. plane pilots arrived in Nationalist territory during March despite Italian itlsistence that the sending of volunteers" had stopped. The Loyalist statement quoted Italian pilots, captured March 28 on the Catalonian front, as authority for the assertion that pilots still were

DEMOCRAT STATE
 CAMPAIGN OPENS

New Haven, Conn, April 19 - (U. P)-Preparations for the coming state campaign were underway to- day following 8 closed meeting last night of the advisory council to the Democratic State Central Commit tee.
 Members of the council remained silent as to what occurred at the meeting. State Chairman J. Francis Smith declined to state if possible platform for the 1888 campaign was discussed.
 He said the council would report whatever action it took to the full state central committee.
 Creation of 8 platform on which widely divergent factions in the party may run was expected to pro- duce friction within the ranks.
 Signs of a split among Democrats on the deal have been noted for some time. Influential party leaders often have expressed themselves as opposed to major politics of the na- tional administration, while Young Democrats and left-wing elements have called for support of the new deal

 One aviator was quoted as saying: "All bombs are made in Italy and shipments of them are arriving continuously. In Logrono there are 14 trucks filled with bombs and munitions stores from Italy" Pos sibility of a protest, it was realized now, was foreshadowed Saturday when, just after the initiating of the British-Italian friendship treaty Loyalist Premier Juan Negrin in a radio speech protected against the agreement and said: Tt assumes that the Spanish people already have been conquered. We ask that our legal rights be established and that non-intervention end. Surely no one desires more evidence of the Italo-German invasion of Spain" /"
 The Loyalists held the agreement by which Britain was to raise the Ethiopian problem at the council and Italy vase to withdraw her volunteers" from Spain at the end of the civil war were both an as- sumption of Nationalist conquest and a confession of Italian inter- vention.

1 by the Central bureau for the Set clement of German Jews of the Jewish Agency for Palestine witt the aid of the United Palestine Ap- peal. German Jewish settlement activities in Palestine by this bureau had the cooperation of the Counci for German Jewry, an internationa organization headed by Viscount Samuel of Great Britain, which is also aided by the United Palestine Appeal. Since 1883 a total of 42,5O( Jews from Germany have been set tied in Palestine.
 Of the total of $2,2300O0 spent for the settlement of German Jews in Palestine, the sum of $1,06O,0OC was used for the settlement of new immigrants in existing agricultural settlements established during the past twenty years by the Palestine Foundation fund, which is combined with the Jewish National fund in the United Palestine appeal. An expenditure of $355,O00 was made for the purchase of land through the Jewish National fund, which is the land purchasing agency. The sum of $370,000 was spent in training new settlers in agricultural or technical centers. German Jewish settlers in agricultural and urban districts received loans totalline $230,OOO and $27, 800 wen for socia. welfare activities.
 The Central bureau for the Set clement of German Jews also made grants to scientists and scholars to- talling $20,O00 during the period under review.
 Educational activities as well as provision for hostels for new immi- grants and instruction in farming and other preparatory work for colonization made necessary an ex- penditure of $165,O0O This sum also included the budget of the Central bureau.
 The figures show that 2,OOO trained pioneers (Chalutzim) were brought to Palestine in 1886 and 1887 from Germany and placed in various agricultural settlements. Tn addition, 1,425 other persons, who were not fully trained, came to Palestine to receive or complete their agricultural or technical training in new centers.
 MT. Lipsky said that during the past four years a total of $500 young German Jews between the ages of twenty and thirty were permanently absorbed in the agri- cultural and industrial life of Pales- tine.
 Describing the manner in which the Central bureau for the Settle ment of German Jews of the Jewish Agency facilitated the immigration and settlement of Jews from Ger man, MT. Lipsky listed the follow ing activities:
 1. Loans to settlements which re- ceived new agricultural workers;
 9. Construction of housing and stables, the extension of irrigation, the purchase of stock;
 3. Colonization of new territory for settlement;
 4. Vocational training; 5. Immigration of children. /

 Its architecture is in Swedish Manor House style, and the interior is divided into sixteen rooms set apart for exhibits in as many fields in which Swedish h-Americans have distinguished themselves.
 Under Dr. Johnson's direction, large collection of books, manu- scripts, historical documents and relics is already on display. But in the curators opinion, many other similar and valuable curios exist which careful research and the means to conduct it will produce.
 The endowment fund will make it possible continually to expand this collection. Dr. Johnson, a specialist in Swedish American history, is the author of several authoritative books on the subject which include the results of his original research.

 High point in the celebration will take place in June, centering in the Delaware River valley, where the first Swedish settlement was eStab- lished in 1638.
 Museum
 
 The museum, for which the Grown Prince Gustaf Adolph of Sweden laid the cornerstone in 1926, will be dedicated by his Royal Highness in ceremony to be held in June. To- gether with its present contents, the museum is valued at $500000. The proposed endowment fund will pro- vide the operating income necessary to keep it open to the public and to enlarge its exhibits.
 The museum is unique institu- ton in the United States. It is a storehouse of the records of Swedish cultural contributions, the visual history of single racial group. Dr. Amandus Johnson, foremost Swed- ish-American historian, is the cur ator.
 Originally the museum was called the John Morton Memorial Museum, in honor of a Swedish-American signer of the Declaration of Inde- pendence, whose vote was the deci- sive one for freedom in the Penn- sylvania delegation.
