tween now and their departure Tor
England on June Is from Halifax.
They arrive at Jasper National
Park Thursday morning and remain
until Friday morning. Then, with
brief official stops at Edmonton and
Saskatoon and many halts OF a few
minutes, the royal special races
through to the thickly populated
districts of Ontario for two busy days
before the train crosses the inter-
national border June 7 at Niagara,
where Secretary of State Hull will
welcome the King and Queen to the
United States and accompany them
to the Capital.
Reception Climaxes Trip.
The reception the royal visitors
received at Victoria was & climax
for the demonstrations all the way
across Canada. Both civic and pro-
vlncial authorities sponsored cere-
monies similar to other provincial
capitals, but here. where the peo-
pie and tempo of life are more like
that OF England than in any other
Canadian city, the royal couple felt
at home.
After their official handshaking
was finished the visitors spent the
late afternoon visiting gardens and
riding through hedge-line lanes as
twisting as those of England. On
the Canadian prairies they saw
farmers just planting spring crops,
but here in a rain-drenched island
like their homeland they saw gar
dens at their height of the spring
Towering season.
King George spoke with deep
feeling when he said the experience
OF the last two weeks would never be
forgotten and that the inspiration it
had given him and the Queen
would hearten and encourage them
for the rest Of their lives.

Garner in for Biggest
Social Spree Of
His Career
Vice Presidential Rank
Moves Him in Front
During Visit Of King
3y the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
Vice President John Nance Gar
ner is in for the biggest social spree
Of his anti-party career when the
British King and Queen visit here
next week.
He's fled Capital society for years,
but his vice presidential rank is
moving him to the front in all the
gold-plate, rose-garden and stiff
shirt functions planned for the Wis
iting monarchs.
Lady Lindsay, wife of the British
Ambassador, indicated yesterday
that Vice President and Mrs. Gar
ner probably would be the first per-
sons formally presented to their
majesties at the royal garden party
June 8.
Ranking American officials, in
cluding some cabinet members, will
be presented to King George and
Queen Elizabeth on a portico be-
fore the royal couple separate for
a walk among the 1850 guests on
the sloping green lawn. According
to rank, Cactus Jack" will be the
first to be introduced.
Only Part of Whirl.
And that's only part of the social
merry -go-round set for that day for
the Texan whom Mrs. Roosevelt has
to coax to White House parties. He
and Mrs. Garner head the Recep-
ton Committee asked to help the
Roosevelts receive their majesties
at the station. There's a White
House dinner that night and an
Embassy dinner the next.
Friends are chuckling over the
Vice Presidents predicament and
his alleged attempts to wriggle out
Of the social hubbub.
One story is that Mr. Garner told
the President or Mrs. Roosevelt jok-
ingly that he heard there was a
great demand for royal dinner invi-
tations and asked If it would be all
right If he and Mrs. Garner sold
theirs.
Another yarn going the rounds is
that the Vice President proposed
sending Mrs. Garner back to Texas.
IL She were out OF town, ne is SAID
to have reasoned, every one woald
know that he couldn't get into one
OF those stiff shirts by himself.
Typical Garner Stories.
Whether the stories are true,
they're typical of John Garner's dis
like for the fuss and feathers of Cap
ital society. He never has done 1t
and as Mrs. Garner remarked once,
"He's gotten by with it,
The Garners will be the second
ranking guests at the dinner to be
given at the British Embassy by the
King and Queen June 9, when Mrs.
Roosevelt will sit at the right OF the
King and the President will sit at
the right Of the Queen.

Urged by Rothermere
BY the Associated Press.

LONDON, June 17.-Lord Roth
ermere, publisher of the Daily Mail,
advocated today British air force
of 10000 planes, disclosed he had
suggested to Germany that Ru-
mania surrender to Hungary 1.-The
Sudetenland of Hungary and urged
Prime Minister Chamberlain to pur-
sue a policy of appeasement."
Lord Rothermere, who has been
described as one of Germany's clos
est friends in England and who was
air minister in 1918, made these
points in a signed article in his
newspaper.
He said that after the Munich
settlement last September of the
German -CZecho- -Slovak crisis he
suggested to German Foreign Mini
ster Joachim Won Ribbentrop 1t
might be an appropriated moment
for Rumania to surrender to Hun
gary the large territory inside Ru-
manian frontiers which previously
belonged to Hungary.
Il am sure today" he wrote, that
If the Hungarian Sudeteland prob
lem is not settled, European states
men in year or two will be con-
fronted with the same emergency
that they had to deal with at
Munich.

gether unsympathetic but I presume

Savings and Loon Units
Favor Newspaper Ads

The newspaper was the favorite
and most effective advertising me-
dium of American savings, building
and loan associations of all types in
1898, the June issue of the Federal
Home Loan Bank Review reported
today. Figures given by the Re-
view were compiled by the Public
Relations Department of the Fed
eral Home Loan Bank in connection
with the second annual survey of
advertising expenditures by thrift
institutions throughout the coun-
try.
Average expenditures for savings
and loan advertising In newspapers
last year amounted to about half
the advertising dollar of such asso-
|.ciations. Moreover, savings and
loan advertising in newspapers was
more than five times the advertising
used for any other single medium.
In the advertising survey for 1887,
conducted a year ago, the first of its
kind, it was definitely determined
that the newspaper topped all other
media for the promotion Of savings
and loan business.

murderer, falteringly went to his
death on the guillotine this morning

sistant to unbuckle Weidmann's
knees.

mann fiat and his assistant pulled
the victim by the hair. Then the
blade fell-badly, but once was
enough.
Wrote Eight Letters.
Before he f1inched, Weidmann
had expressed a desire to die as
quickly as possible. In his cell be-
fore dawn he calmly wrote eight
letters, one to Miss Ida Sackheim
In Brooklyn, an aunt Of Miss De
Koven.

the Paris Exposition In 1897. Weld
mann lured the girl to the villa.
where he robbed, murdered her and
buried the body.

their hands in his armpits, pushed
him to the block. His attorney.

out "Good-by, little one" at the
prison door.

Jews

gers told of their great relief when
they finally learned that temporary
havens had been found for them.
The governments of Great Britain,
France, Belgium and the Neither
lands agreed only this week, as the
liner neared Europe, each to take
about one-fourth of the group.
Most of the refugees hope to enter
the United States eventually when
quota restrictions permit.
The passengers were told of the
temporary havens on June 13, al
most exactly a month after their
departure from Hamburg Nearly
all night the passengers stayed up,
hugging each other in a joyful dem
onstration and waiting eagerly for
more news about their rescue
On subsequent nights it was the
same. On the last night out and
with friendly reception so near,
most Of the passengers were so eX-
cited they could not sleep.
A committee worked nearly all
night on details of debarkation and
distribution to the four countries
receiving them.
Most of the Jews, including some
of the PAT children aboard, were
up at dawn or before to await ar
rival this morning of Morris Trooper,
educational director of the Amer
ican Joint Distribution Committee,
and relief representatives of the re-
ceiving countries.
Scenes of Joy on Ship.
Scenes of joy surprising those en-
acted later at Antwerp greeted re-
lief officials as they boarded the
st. Louis off Flushing, the Neither
lands, to complete as many distribu-
tion details as possible before reach
ing Antwerp.
The first to greet them at the
gangplank were children. With
happy faces they shouted their
greetings, and one of them said to
Trooper in German: 1--WE only wish
we grew flowers on the boat so we
could give you some. We are all so
happy"
A difficult task faced relief Of
ficials in deciding what country
would get each of the refugees. An
other problem was disposition of
300 tons Of baggage. Many of the
passengers had taken their house
hold belongings with them to start
life anew in the New World.
Belgium to Keep $50.
The first chosen to disembark at
Antwerp were $50 assigned to Bel
gium, They were to be housed in
old Marness Castle at Liege. A spe-
cial train was at the pier for them.
A group of 157 going to the Meth
erlands leave tomorrow aboard the
steamer Flandria. Groups of $50
each bound for England and France
were to make the remainder of the
trip to Southampton and Boulogne
by the steamer Rhakotis of the
Hamburg American line.
Waiting at the pier were many
relatives of those aboard who waved
and shouted greetings. Different
scenes had been enacted at Ha-
vana, where relatives and friends
had come out to greet the refugees
only to see them barred.
