to stand with the Finnish Minister
during the ceremony as an official
witness.
Pr0cope Gets Nervous.
The entire wedding party had as
sembled in the parlor of the an
cestral home of the Moore family
and was ready to proceed with the
ceremony about $3.50 pm. Still the
secretary of the legation had failed
to make his appearance. The bride
groom-to became nervous. He
went first to the front door, then to
the side door, and finally out on a
side porch looking for his aide. The
bride-to-be, however, took the delay
in calmer fashion. She was heard to
remark good naturedly something
to the effect that in this wedding,
delay was not due to the girl.
1t was decided finally to proceed
without Mr.. Solanko, and the Fin
nish minister motioned to his old
friend and host, Mr.. Moore to stand
beside him. Miss Shaw was ac-
companied by her uncle, the Earl of
Lindsay, from England and Boston.
Behind the group the mantel was
decorated with two silver candel-
abras carrying three lighted candles
each, with white lilacs, white snap
dragons. white tulips and white
carnations. At the left. on a Duncan
Phyfe table, between the auto
graphed photographs of King George
and Queen Elizabeth of England
stood huge vase of pink roses, the
gift Of President and Mrs Roosevelt.
To the right of the wedding party
was huge lily. Elsewhere in the
room were pink snapdragons and
roses.
Ritual Is Brief.
The Rev. F.. Yrjo Joki of the Fin
nish Evangelical Lutheran Church
Of Brooklyn, N. Y. performed the
ceremony simple ritual, brief and
impressive. There was no music.
The bridegroom handed to the
minister the wedding ring, which
was passed back to him and Mr..
Procope then placed the ring on the
finger of his bride. The marriage
vow did not include, as do many
American ceremonies, the word
"Obey," nor did the bride and groom
say Il do"
The couple knelt on a prize -dieu
cushion Of white satin with corded
tassels. The ceremony concluded

Fish Will Demand
Investigation Of
German White Book
Will Seek impeachment
Of BuIIitt if Facts
Warrant, He Says
Ay the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Representative Fish, Republican,
Of New York said last night he
would demand complete investi-
cation" of the German white book
and would seek impeachment of
Ambassador William c. Bullitt IF
the facts warrant"
In a radio address, Representative
Fish said President Roosevelt and
Mr.. Bullitt owed the American
people "a categorical and detailed
answer" to every charge made in
the book.
1t was no answer, he said, ito
raise the hue and cry of 'propa-
ganda' or to sprinkle a few grains
Of salt on its tail"
The paper, made public by Ger
many Friday, purported to be docu-
ments seized in the Polish Foreign
Office and were described by Ger
man officials as showing the United
States part in bringing on" the
war.
Salt Urged for Documents.
Asked about them at his press
conference, President Roosevelt sug-
gested that all propaganda from
Europe be taken with several grains
OF salt. Mr.. Bullitt. the Ambassador
to France, also used the salt phrase
in denying conversations attributed
to him.
One paper quoted Mr.. Bullitt as
Do{1 -
Polish Ambassador to the United
States. that this country would enter
any war developing between Ger
many and the British-French allies.
Count Potocki also denied that
there had been such conversation.
Mr.. Fish said that Congress prob
ably would wait for publication Of
the full text of the alleged corre-
spondence "in order to properly
examine it and determine its au-
thenticity."
Holt Thinks Papers May Be True.
Senator Holt, Democrat, of West
Virginia said in a statement yester-
day that remarks attributed to AM
bassador Bullitt in the purported
Polish documents too closely re-
semble other remarks made else
where by him and others to have the
incident brushed aside as 'propa-
ganda.'"
Senator Holt asserted that the
remarks attributed to Mr.. Bullitt
''dovetail right into the public
speech of another one of those
poor boy diplomats, Jimmy Crom-
we'll"
James H. R. Cromwell, United
States Minister to Canada and hus-
band of the wealthy Doris Duke, was
rebuked by Secretary Hull for max
ing pro- allies address nearly two
weeks ago.
II hope the Bullitt incident is
propaganda, and not the truth, but
1t sounds very much like the wealthy
diplomat" Senator Holt said. Fur
thermore, this is not the first time
the Ambassador has expressed such
thoughts. He denied speech in
France indicating our participation.
I am sure Secretary Hull was stat
ing his true position when he said
the remarks did not represent his
views"

inally the committee had contem-
plated passage of the civil rights bill
as a separate measure. but later it
was decided to amend the Guard
authorization which would permit
President Roosevelt to order out
militia, Reserve officers and enlisted
reserves.
Meanwhile, Senator Barley pro-
posed annual registration of all men
between 81 and As to supplement
CONSUMPTION.
Senator Barley declared the an
nual registration would supply in
formation of men available for nom
combatant activities, as well as those
who might be called for military
service"
Would Involve Changes.
Senator Sheppard, floor manager
of the Burke Wadsworth compulsory
military training bill, declared the
proposal would entail changes in
the contemplated CONSUMPTION plans.
The bill now calls for a single regis
tration of all men between 81 and 81
The measure would remain in effect
five years, but, Senator Sheppard
said. any additional registrations
would require new action by Con-
gress. Thus, it was indicated, there
would be no registration of men
who reach the age of 81 a year
after the CONSUMPTION bill becomes
effective, unless Congress orders
their registration.
Senator Burke. Democrat. Of
Nebraska has offered an amend
ment which would increase the age
limits between 81 and As. although
conscripts would be taken largely
in the bracket between 81 and 81.
Senator Minton, assistant Demo-
cratic floor leader, opposed the an
nual registration of the age bracket
between 81 and As, asserting that
the men between Il and 81 would
provide sufficiently large reserve
of manpower to meet Army re-
quirements and that forcing older
men to register was unnecessary.

mittee expected to reopen its con-
scription hearings tomorrow Chair

BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT

The announcement yesterday that 35 bas.
ketball teams from throughout southeastern
North Carolina have entered the tournament
sponsored by the Star-News and the Y.M.C.A,
speaks well for the spirit of neighborliness
and cooperativeness that exists in this sec.
ton of the state.
And this is as it should be-.
Sucn a playoff as this brings together the
athletic talent from a half-dozen or more
counties and provides healthful and ENJOYABLE
recreation both for participants and spec.
tators.
But it does more than that. It serves as
no other medium can to draw tighter the ties
that bind a group Of communities into a com.
posite and cooperative unit. And it is such
a unit as this that makes for worthwhile
progress and advancement.
No group of cities and towns with a com.
mon interest such as those in this section can
effect any real accomplishment unless a con.
dition such as this exists. In this case, par
t~icularly, it is true that unity makes for
strength.
1t is the duty Of every resident of south
eastern North Carolina to discourage clan
nishness and to promote the spirit of friend.
Illness and cooperativeness among his neigh
bors.
And may the best teams win in the basket
ball tourney.

The Fayetteville Observer

Alice Fave is suing her husband Tony Martin
for divorce and in case you haven't guessed it
Alice is a moving picture. blues singer and her
husband is a radio crooner and the address is
Hollywood.
The news was printed in almost all the pa
pers with pictures of Alice and we suppose the
people like to read about it, but we are will
ing to enter into a conspiracy here and now
with all the other newspapers in the country
to charge space rates from now on out for all
accounts of Hollywood divorces and so-called
Opponents.
We have more than a suspicion that the
stage and screen folk are bilking handwriting
newspaper publishers out Of half-a-billion dol
lars worth Of free publicity each and every
wear in the accounts of their hitchings and I'M
hitchings.
1t is not only bilking the newspaper business
out Of billions but it is bringing the holy state
Of matrimony into general and ludicrous dis
repute: something to be bought and sold, some
thing with a trade.in value, something to be
engaged in for the sake Of a tawdry picture
and a few silly lines of press agentry on the
front pages of a few hundred newspapers.
If enough conspirators would go in with us
we'd make it ring with the cash register or
stay out of the paper and you'd see the Holly.
wood divorce rate do a nose dive that would
nut the 1929 stock market to shame.
There would be a far greater respect for
matrimony If the stars had to pay to get the
stories of their divorces in the papers.
