SYOSSET, N. Y., June 26.— ' Beautiful Princess Xenia of Greece, who recently divorced her millionaire husband, Billy Leeds, is living a quiet, simple life in this tranquil New York suburb. Neighbors report that a romance with a I "poor, hard-working young American” may shorty result in a second marriage venture for the Princess. Although Leeds, heir to the millions of h's father, the tinplate king, is reported to have settled a fortune on his blue-blooded bride, Xenia does all her own shopping and is reported to have retired from the gay social world for all time. Three miles away in fashionabe Oyster Bay stands the magnificent mansion where the Leeds gave many gay parties. Nancy Leeds, her six-year-old daughter, is living with the Princess in her modest country cottage. Among the few luxuries Xenia permits herself are a blue sports roadster and a saddle thoroughbred. Before her marriage she was kown as one of Europe's most ac-, complished horsewomen. When several months ago Xenia severed the martial bonds that tied her to the heir to the $120,000,000 tin plate fortune, Billy and she kissed publicly and declared that, though divorced, they remained the best of friends and would always remain so.

state language, but was the only tongue officials were permitted to use in their relations with the native population. Even though ■ hese officials were in many ceases themselves Polish, they could deal with their fellow Poles only in Russian. In the Luger cities, therefore, almost everyone understood Russian. In the rural districts, however, this tongue was almost unknown so that when a peasant was required to serve n the army, or called before a government official or summoned to a court of law h? invariably had to have an interpreter. In 1905 a school strike was held throughout Poland. The principal demand of the strikers was that Polish be made the language of instruction. Due to the strength of ■he movement the Russian government capitulated to a limited extent. Polish was introduced into the intermediate schools, particularly the private schools, but the state schools retained the official language. Moreover, the Polish language schools were denied cettain tights. A graduate from one of these could not, for examp e, matriculate in a Russian language college, and as a result many I olish youths either dropped their studies or continued them in French, Belgian. German or Swiss universities. wnria It was not until after the World, war that the prohibition of ish tongue was abolished, it was still In force, and eg P® J y because the Russian “ u ‘ ior were not successful in their com . pulsory school attendance’ illiteracy flourished.

It followed the marriage of Billy's mother to Prince Christopher of Greece, Xenia's uncle. In the years that followed, vast sums from the Leeds coffers were reported poured into the vain movement to keep King Constantine on his tottering Grecian throne. Their divorce resulted when Billy continued his madcap career of frenzied adventure and pleasure all through the decade of their union. Xenia, unlike her handsome and popular husband, preferred studying serious subjects such as international policies and economics to a night after night round of cabarets and night clubs. Three years ago, when Mme. Tchaikowsky, a Polish woman claiming to be Grand Duchess Anastasia, heiress to the Russian crown, came to America, Xenia sheltered her. She spent SIOO,OOO of the Leeds millions providing medical treatment and in attempts to prove the truth of the mysterious woman’s assertions. Two years later Mme. Tchaikowsky left the Oyster Bay mansion and Mrs. Leeds declared her story had been found fictitious.

ROBINSON HAS t FIRST OPPONENT FOR 12 YEARS Arkansas Senator’s Adj versary Hopes to Gain Anti-Smith Support By Nolen Bulloch, UP. Staff Correspondent Little Rock, Ark., June 30—(U.R) —Senator Joe T. Robinson, the vice presidential candidate on the Democratic ticket two years ago, has gotten down to some stiff campaigning for the first time in 12 years. The usual unopposed Democratic senate leader has run Into an opponent this year in his race for renomination. And more surprising in political circles is that Tom W. Campbell, Little Rock lawyer, opponent of Senator Robinson's, is considered by many a< Robinson's nemesis. It is the first time since 1918 that Robinson lias had an opponent. Robinson had held the senate seat since 1913 when he was named by the state legislature U> fill a vacancy. Robinson recently returned to Ids home state, the first time since last January when he was preparing to leave for London to attend the Ixmdon naval treaty conference. He returned to get his campaign machine in action. Little attention was paid to Campbell's campaign at first. Only when reports drifted into Robinson’s headquarters from over the state did friends of the senator take cognizance of the reported strength Campbell is said to be gaining. Campbell is vigorously stumping the state. Echoes of the 1928 campaign have becorpe an increased noise in the present fight. The anti-Smith forces over the state of two years ago are said to be opposing Robinson.

Campbell is making a bid for a large share of the more than 100,JOO votes cast against Smith, and which nearly turned the rock-rib-bed Democratic state Republican. Campbell in his campaign has charged that Robinson is a representative of power trusts. The senatorial race, however, is just one feature of the Arkansas pi imary fight. A record number of candidates have entered the political free-for-all this year. Five candidates are in the gubernatorial race, with three making vigorous campaigns. Gov. Harvey Parnell, who was named chief executive in 1927 upon the appointment of Gov. John E. Martineau to a Federal judge;hip, and who was elected for a full term in 1928, is seeking re-elec-tion on the administration's record. His chief opponent, seemingly at the present, is young Brooks Hays, 31-year-old lawyer, who was runner-up for the nomination in 1928. Both Hays and Parnell have come in from attacks from Judge John C. Sheffield of Helena. The other two candidates are Thornton Gray, Batesville, a state represen-j tative, and A. R, Hill, highway employe, Little Rock. The campaign is centered around the state highway commission and the state road program. Eleven candidates have started < scrambled fight for the lieutenant governor's nomination. Other state officials, congressmen, state senators and representatives will be nominated at the Democratic primary August 12. Tlie most bitter congressional fight is being waged in the second listrict, the former district of Congressman William Oldfield. Upon Oldfield’s death, his wife, Mrs. Pearl Peden, was elected at a special election. She Is not a candidate this teim. Eight candidates are seeking the seat :n congress. o—

BIRD EXHIBIT i RECALLS EXPERT ON PHILIPPINES Exploits of Dean C. Worcester Brought to Fore by Old Collection By Harry W. Frantz (United Press Staff Correspondent) Washington, June 30 —(U.R) Tlie recent acquisition of a large collet - ion of Philippines birds by the Inited States National Museum nought to light the story of a scienist and ornithologist. Dean ('. Wor■e ,ter, now deeeased, who became me of the foremost men of affairs n the Philippines after the Arneri- j an occupation. Tlie bird collvction, of 1500 rare' pe< imens, was acquired from the | Minneapolis Public Library, where; t has been housed since tlie Menge Exhibition to the Philippines in .890-93. Its collectors were Wor•hester, then an a; sistant professor n zoology at the University oi Michigan: and Frank S. Bourns, of \nn Arbor, Michigan. These two aeu had made an ea.lier expedition o tlie Philippines in 1887. As a result of his s arch for birds, ’’rofessor Worcester acquired an •xtraordinary acquaintance with ail j >arts of the Philippine Archipelago mpai alleled by any other American if his time. In 1898, collaborating vith D,. Bourns, lie published "Con iributions to Hhilippine Orrt'Lhoogy” which contained not only a complete description of the bird life >1 the islands, but a wealth of misaellaneous scientific and general nformation. Shortly after this, the American Jccupation of the Philippines oeurred. Worcester was one of the ew men here who had an intimate knowledge of conditions in the Isands. He became a consultant of President McKinley, and is said to have counselled sending of asp - ■ial commission to the islands. Worcester himself became a member of the United States-Philippines Commission, serving from January 1 1899, to September 1, 1901, during, he critical transition period from Spanish to American regime. Subsequent'y. Worchester became secretary of interior in the Philipdues Insular Government, serving rom Septembe. 1, 1901, to September 15, 1913. During this period he had a large part in the development of insular policies, and his many scientific and political publications had a great influence on developments in Washington. The bird collection received by the National Museum fills numerous gaps in the Museum's previous collection. which now Includes a total of between 7,000 and 8,000 Philippine birds, the largest In existence. Among the rare specimens Is the monkey-eating eagle, one of the largest bit ds of prey in the archipelago. Contrasting with this are the small sun birds, of brilliant metalic

OLDER WOMEN MUST HIDE AGE TO KEEP JOBS U. S. Women’s Bureau Official C riticizes Present Employment Practices Washington, June 30- (U.K)- -A ; woman’s proverbial reticence where age is concerned has economic f not ethical justification in our modern Industrial system, according to officials <>f the United States Women's Bureau. The woman over 28 who tells her employer the truth about her 1 age is likely to find henelf out of a job. says Miss Mary V. Robini son, director of the bureau’s division of public Information. The bureau finds the term, "older worker," Is being applied to all women employes between the ages I of 28 and 68, and that it is "fairly I typical” for indiatrlal concerns to employ only women under 30. "With the problem of finding work becoming more acute for women in their thirties, naturally to the women of over 40 forced to seek a Job the situation seems almost hopeleHs,” Miss Robinson said. "Many women In their fifties, despite years of satisfactory and loyal service, are kept through wrong tyipes of efficiency methods in constant dread of losing their ••ositlon: and those who have crossed the 60 mark, even though still hale, Pt and useful, generally are regarded as hopelessly Iseyond th o dead line of employment.” Tlie Women's Bureau recently made a survey of women hand workers in the cigar industry, where hundreds have been thrown out of work by factory mergers and in tallatlon of automatic cigar making machines A number of those questioned frankly admitted prevaricating about their age in their effort to find new work. Miss Robinson raises the ques-

t'on if It isn't "a short sighted civilization" that offers wage standards too low to provide savings that would insure against unemn’oyment, and age standards too low to provide jobs for eapable arr’licnnts. "Whether women have suffered more than hien from the tendency that has been gradually developing in this country to substitute youth and speed for maturity, skill and experience, the Women's Bureau onnnot say,” according to Miss Rolr'nson. "It can say," she added, "that ! n the past year the problem of 'he so-called older woman worker has become a paramount issue." —. Former Consul Honored Richmond.
