WOMEN GUIDES ARE ORGANIZED BY COMMISSION Tourists May Hire Company and Feel Safe From Losing Bankroll By John White (United Press Stuff Correspondent) Purls June 7 —tUP)-The lonely , American tourist who once rented a “guide" to show him the works, and woke up the next morning I with a mild form of neuralgia and I nothing but his underwehr to fend | off the ehill, may now return in peace. The High Commissioner of j Tourism has taken over the guide business, hiring a bevy of home girls who wouldn’t harm a fly to lake the visiting firemen over the Jumps in Montmartre, Montparnasse and elsewhere. It Is distinctly given to understand that young wontdu need not apply for part time work at this new trade unless they are willing to promise to keep their hands off of their escorts’ billfolds, and the preliminary announcement of tile High Commissioner's employment bureau makes it plain that intelligent ser-ious-minded girls will be given the preference in case of a tie. The wages scale from 50 francs t’for a quiet afternoon tramping around the parks and museums ami poking into old doorways to 100 francs for a real night of good clean fun at the bars and music halls. Naturally the escort pays all the bills, but the assumption is that the slrls will be able to steer the strangers clear of the usual tourist gouges. such as fake ushers in the lol!-' hies of theatres, fake supplements on the bills, and so on. not to mention the agility with which a native !s able to calculate a stack of saucers. One more promise is exacted of he applicant: She must in the event some romantic soul insists >n winding up a 24-hour cross country by stopping in the rue de )a Prix and buying his l>enefactress a nice fare coat, repulse the gentleman. There is a ritual to be, learned in this connection — something like “Oh sir. you misjudge the Frenchwoman.” Later on. if the plan works, young men may be hired to assist the lonely and fair tourist, although the High Commissioner admits that this departure has its obvious pitfalls. o —l Catholic High Holds Annual Commencement ! ,CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE)

ANNOUNCEMENT IN DOZEN WORDS STIRS ENGLAND Cancelling of Dutchess’ Engagements Widely Heralded London, June 7 —(UP)—lt was just a short statement, barely a doaen words, and it said In effect that the Duchess of York had can•elled all her engagements for this summer, but it created a stir throughout the world. So far as the British public was concerned, naval conferences, parliamentary crises, and football cup finals were pushed into the background. This was news, real news, for none could fail to read between tile lines and learn that an addition to the family of the Duke and Duchess of York is expected. When the statement was issued from 145, Piccadilly, near Hyde Paik, it carried a note to editors t equesting that no comment should be made upon the statement, and that no photographs of the Duchess be published. In fact, it wa» indicated that the Yorks desired as little publicity as possible. The British press respected this desire to an extent. No comment on the statem nt was made, but it was prominently displayed on the main news pages with headlines in laige type. The nearest approach to comment was made by the Labor Daily Herald which, in a footnote, said “so far the Duke and Duchess if .York have only one child, Princess Elizabeth."

The pi ess did. however, publish photographs of the Duchess, who is egarded as a beauty among royalty. and on the following day many >t' the gossip writers more than hinted as to the significance of the announcement. Thus, it is now an accepted, if lot an official fact thal the Ditchess will give birth to a child, and, the United Press learns fiom a usually reliable source, S ptember is the month in which it is expected to arrive. There is already a great deal of discussion on the eternal question: “Will it be a boy or a girl?” The birth of a boy will create an interesting situation. It will mean that little Princess Elizabeth will lose her position as third in line for the throne of England, after her Uncle David, the Prince of Wales, and her father, the Duke of York. It is the custom in England tor males to take precedence however much younger they are than their sisters. Thus the Duke of Tork's son would become the fourth male in the land after King George, the Prince of Wales and the Duke, and would be third in line to the throne. On the other hand, another girl would not alter the situation, and there would still be a possibility of England being ruled once more y a Queen Elizabeth. I o

PRISON PAROLE MAY BE PROBED (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) in the parole papers, which said the trustees voted the parole. Prison records show that the trustees denied the parole on three occasions. When Governor Harry G. Leslie took office and learned that Bunch and Homer Daisy, Indianapolis, could be held because of errors in parole papers, he ordered Warden Daly not to r?lease them. Daisy is serving a sentence for bank robbery, and his parole was fought by the Indiana State Bankers Association. Bunch originally was sentenced to the Indiana State reformatory in 1922 for from 10 to 21 years for robbery. Later h? was transferred to the prison, another detail allegedly unmentioned in the parole papers. o Milk Diet Protesters Munich, —(UP) — As a protest a'gainst the increase in the tax on , beer the inhabitants of a Bavarian | village declared a one-day strike.

CONFEDERATES READY TO HOLD ANNUAL MEET Thinning Ranks of GrayCI a d Soldiers March Past Davis Residence Biloxi. Miss.. June 7—(VP)—A thin line of grey-clad nv n march’d. hobbled and rode down the boulevard past the post-war home of Jefferson Davis, president of the Confederacy, here today. Til y were surviving members of the United Confederate Veterans here to meet in their 40th, ami what may be their last, annual reinion. Their shoulders were stooped, their hair white, but in 'ljeir eyes sparkled an undefeated aid undimnted spirit. Thousands of visitors were arriving today and thousands of others will arrive by tomorrow tor the formal opening. Approximately 100,OUt) visitors including veterans, their relatives and friends -are expected to attend the reunion. To the veterans the gathering is more than a reunion—it is a pilgrimage to the shrine where their Contederate president spent hjs last days in virtual exile after the Civil . In the line of march were men who had followed Gen. Robert E. Lee. Gen. Stonewall Jackson and Cen. Albert Sidney Johnson, at Shiloh, Bull Run, Vicksburg, Gettysburg, and other historic battlefields in the four years of strife between the states.

The state of Mississippi is host to the approximately 5.000 veterans gathering from all sections of the t nited States. They occupy tents n a camp to themselves and live gain in mimic and in memory the lays of 1862-65. Each year the number of veterans attending the reunions has Iwindied. Many connades are missing each successive year from the rapidly thinning ranks. Many believe this is destined to be the last convention of that once mighty host. Each year for the past several yeais it has been proposed to discontinue the reunions and each year those in support of the proposal have become more ml more numerous. The federal government is cooperating to make this reunion a success. Aircraft exhibitions and naval displays will be featured. The U. S. Marine band will he joined by the National Band of the
