MAURER SCORNS
PRESENT IDEALS
SOCIALIST PARTY
hands in resignation
AS MEMBER OF OR
, GANIZATION
READING. Pa.. July 8 (TP)—The
"old war horse" of the Socialist party
is missing from the party ranks to
day.
James H, Maurer, twice a candidate
for the vice presidency on the Social
ist ticket and for 40 years a front
rank worker for the Socialist cause,
has handed in his resignation.
Maurer blamed his withdrawal on
what he termed a move by Socialist
leaders to invite Communist support.
He accused the national executive
committee, including presidential can
didate Norman Thomas of “wrecking
the party” by setting up what he
called a party autocracy.
Th* Socialist veteran’s resignation
stunned many party members to
whom he was always known as the
"old war horse.” The party faction
fighting Thomas’ control labelled
Maurer’s withdrawal as another indi
cation of the collapse of the party.
Thomas, in Lincoln, Nebraska, for a
state convention, bitterly denied
Maurer’s charges that Communists
were being invited into the Socialist
party.

MRS. RUTH BRYAN OWEN
WASHINGTON, July 8 (TP)—
State department officials are scratch
ing their heads today in their effort
to unravel the puzzle presented by
Mrs. Ruth Bryan Owen’s forthcoming
marriage to a Danish courtier.
Mrs. Owen, the American minister
to Denmark, has confirmed reports
that she will marry Captain Boerge
Rohde, a member of Danish King
Christian’s life guards. Captain Rohd?
is expected to arrive in New York to
morrow on the liner “Drottningholm.”
Rumors say the couple will be married
either tomorrow or Friday in a quiet
wedding to be held at the Long Is
land estate of Mrs. Owen's daughter,
Mrs. Robert Lehman.
What is bothering state department
officials is the question of Mrs. Owen's
diplomatic status after her marriage.
The first American minister ever ap
pointed, it is explained, would the
oretically become a Danish subject
as the wife of Captain Rohdy.
While Mrs. Owen refused to com
ment on her future plans, it is gen
erally expected that the daughter of
William Jenn’ngs Bryan will solve
the problem herself by offering her
resignation soon after the wedding.

WORLD-WIDE JOY
AT 97th BIRTHDAY
OF ROCKEFELLER
ENTIRE ORGANIZATION OF
STANDARD OIL PAYS
TRIBUTE
LAKEWOOD .a. u., July 8 (TP)—
There was little excitement in the
town of Richford, N. Y., when a son
was born to William and Eliza Rocke
feller 97 years ago today. Their hum
ble household was naturally upset,
but to Richford and the world ac
. large it was just another new arrival.
I Today the world will celebrate the
I aniversary of that birth. Oil drillers
in China will be reminded that the
“Big Boss”, John D., is 97 today.
Crews of powerful Standard Oil tank
ers all over the world will sit down
to a special treat at their mess tables
tonight. Doctors, nurses and patients
at Rockefeller Medical Center in New
York will have reason to remember
the diy-
But in Lakewood, M .’ Rocs.teller
will go slowly about the daily routine
which has done so much to preserve
his health and spirits through the
long years. He has unbounded faith
that his careful living habits will
carry him to the 100-year-mark, a
goal he set for himself sometime ago.
There will be a few guests in for
dinner to join with relatives of the
retired oil magnate in wishing him
many happy returns of the day. The
cook at the Rockefeller estate in
Lakewood, Golf House, has prepared
a giant birthc’.ay cake for the occa
sion. It is large enough to hold 97
candles and the inevitable "One to
Grow On.”
Mr. Rockefeller will cut the cake
himself and he told friends that he’s
been feeling so good lately that he
may even forget those health rules
and eat a slice of it.
LEMKE’S CAMPAIGN
IS TO BE DELAYED
COURT TEST OF MORTGAGE
ACT CAUSES HALT
IN DRIVE
CHICAGO, July 8 (TP).—The
Union party preiidential candid* .e.
Congressman William Lemke, order
ed a pause in his campaign today as
he prepared to go to coi rt.
Lemke said he would participate
in a court test of the second Frazier-
Lemke farm mortgage act which
comes up on July 15 in Fargo, N. D.
The first farm mortgage act, of
which Lemke was co-author, was in
validated by tire U. S. Supreme Court
on grounds of being unconstitution
al.
Said Lemke: "That bill humanized ,
the bankruptcy act. The supreme
court said it was all right to save th? i
wreckage—if it was the wreckage of
a railroad. It didn’t think the farm
er had any such rights. I’m not criti
cizing the supreme court—the poor
fellows were tired and overworked.”
SCOUTS JUBILEE
PLANS IN MAKING
NEW YORK July 8 XTP)—From ‘
the national headquarters of the Boy
Scouts of America went news today
that the Great National Jambore*
will go ahead next year at Washing
ton. It is scheduled from June 30
to July 9. This great meeting of

fortably clcse to Washington. Presi
dent Roosevelt himself asked that
the encampment be postponed.
The National Jamboree committee
—including Marshall Field, Col. Theo
dore Roosevelt and Dr. James E. West

will be the greatest gathering of boys
jn American history.

RELIEF PROBLEM
BECOMES ACUTE
CHICAGO SEEKING GOV
ERNMENTAL AID IN
TRYING HOUR
CHICAGO. July 8 (TP)—More
than 38,000 food orders for Chicago’s
need families are ready to go out in
the mails today—but the relief ma
chinery refuses to work.
Relief officials said Chicago’s lack
' of funds makes the food orders worth
less. Financial aid is expected some
time today from Cook County which
has more than $500,000 earmarked for
relief purposes.
The funds are sufficient to carry
half of Chicago’s relief roll for two
weeks. After that officials adimit,
all public aid will stop unless unex
pected funds are received. U. S. Sen
ator James Hamilton Lewis plans to
confer with Federal Relief Administra
tor Hopkins today. The Senator said
he would ask for temporary aid from
the federal government.
OKLAHOMA QUADRUPLETS
ARE EXCITED OVER VOTES
DURANT, Okla., July 8 (TP)—The
famous Keys quadruplets—Roberta, .
Leota, Mary and Mona—are all ex- 1
cited today over the Oklahoma elec- I
t e>ns.
The Keys sisters filed into a polling
place at Durant to become the first
quadruplets ever to cast votes in the
United States.
Mary confessed she and her sisters
were just a little confused by the
long array of names on the ballot.
Sa'd she: “But we knew just who to
vote for when we got our ballots —and
we all voted the same way.”
200 HONOR BIRTHDAY
OF BABY HIPPOPOTAMUS
CHISAGO, July 8 (TP)—Congratu

year old.
Puddles is a baby hippopotamus,
and one of the chief attractions
among the zoo’s collection of wild
beasts. The baby hippo is to get a
birthday cake, with one large candle
this evening. Fu*~es is not much of
a cake-eater, however. His real meal
will b* made up of large helpings of
spinach, alfalfa, and a broth made
from oats and cornmeal.
