The Von Sternbergs have been divorced about four years and the director has been largely instrumental in putting the German star on the pinnacle of fa me she occupies in the film world. Miss Dietrich’s husband, Rudolph Sieber, publicly declared that he has the utmost confidence in his wife and that her relations with Von Sternberg are merely those customary between a director and a star. Another suit for SIOO,OOO has also been filed by A<frs. Von Sternberg, charging that Miss Dietrich libeled her in articles written for Austrian and German newspapers.

Los Angeles, Sept. Jl'.—The ro-1 mautk ist will tell you, with the! light of idealism in his eyes, that the one thing in the world on which it is impossible to hang a price-tag I jis love. If there is a cynic in the! audience the statement will call ; forth a tell-it-to-Ripley expression,! a characteristic twist of the lips! and a counter statement that love,! in common with oilier commodities, has its value in dollars and cents. , Apparently the cynic is not alone] I in his belief, as we frequently have I eases of indemnity being sought [ for the loss of the divine passion A celebrated example, now imminent, is that in which Mrs. Rita Von Sternberg is suing Marlene Dietrich for the sum of SSOO,OtK) for the alleged alienation of the affee-] tions ot her former husband.

Miss Dietrich, as millions of movie, fans already know, came to the United States from Germany about : two years ago and immediately i started to elimb to fame at a speed ! that was nothing sh’rt of phenom enal. under the direction of Von Sternberg. Success was assured from the moment her first picture appeared, her expressive eyes, that could say all kinds of nice things, to her audience, and her shapely ] limbs contributing largely to her, triumph. Last spring, as a gesture to her love for America and its reception of her. Miss Dietrich brought her' husband. Rudolph Sieber, ami her daughter to live in Hollywood. The first hint of trouble brewing! for the movie queen came some l luontha ago when rumor circulated jto the effect that Mrs. Von Stein ' ; berg, divorced wife of Miss Diet- 1

I rich's director, complained that her .ex-husband was taking more than a business interest in tlie German star. The rumor was efficiently quashed, however, when Miss bietrich's husband made a public declaration lot confidence in his famous wife, stating that he was not jealous and I that the relations between Marlene ' and Von Sternberg were purely | those that normally exist between I director and star. ] But a suit for non payment of l alimony filed against the director [by his former wife brought to light the fact that Mrs. Von Sternberg lias already institued proceedings against Miss Dietrich in the New York supreme court, claiming $500,000 indemnity for the alienation ot her husband's affections. ! Tlie suit charges that the lure of tiie blonde star's beautiful limbs | was too much for Josef and that ■ be succumbed to the extent of furn- . isliing an apartment for Miss Dietrich and allowing her to run bills | on his account of stores all over Los [Angeles, “which," added Mrs. Von I Sternberg, is more than lie ever al- ] lowed me to do." But that's not all. Mrs. Von Sternberg further charges that Dietrich libeled her in newspaper articles in Herman and Austrian papers and for that Mrs. Von Sternberg wants .another SIOO,OOO. * Apart from being an example in the debate between the cynic ami! ! the romanticist, the eost of Von ! I Sternberg's alleged affections may have a disastrous effect on Miss Dietrich's film career here. Hollywood frowns on scandals, and stars as brilliant as the German actress ! have dropped into oblivion- over- | night because they brought film'doni publicity of tile wrong kind.

Not for Jose MEXICO CITY (U.R)—The city's campaign to enforce a compulsory ■ bathing regulation met its strong--1 est opponent in Jose Maria Velazquez. who submitted to the cleanj sing process ofily when subdued by sanitary police. Velasquez first sought to prove I the injustice of the officers' sugi geslion about a bath by producing ! a soiled certilieate proving that ' lie had had an official bath last 1 ' I Decemts r. He contended the po--1 lice were unkluly- invading his priI vate rights by insisting upon two 1 baths in nine months. Velasquez warned them he would sue the city if the two baths I in nine months injured his health. 1

MISSIONARIES ENTER FIELD OF BIG BUSINESS Work In Foreign Fields! Embraces Elaborate Program Boston, Sept. ; c . (U.R) Mission ary work in foreign fields has joined the realm of “big business.'’ No longer does the Christian worker abroad eontine himself to evangelistic service. The scope of his activity has broadened in recent years until it embraces an elaborate program which also includes: Schools, ranging from kindergartens to colleges. Industrial and agricultural instruction. Hospitals, dispensaries and clinics. Social service, with settlement houses and playgrounds. Oldest Society America's oldest foreign missionary society is the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions. with headquarters here. From the time it was organized, 121 years ago. it has sought the co-op-ation of all Christians without distinction of sect "who desire to propagate the Gospel among the unevangelized nations." Today it lias 700 misionarles — 248 men and 452 women —in foreign fields. There are 173 in China, 158 in the Near East, 120 in India, 110 in Africa, and smaller numbers elsewhere. Last year the organ ization spent nearly $2,000,000 on missions. Dean of Workers Dean of these church workers afield is Miss Eva M. Swift, 68, formerly of Dallas, Texas, still active in India after 47 years' service. And tlie society's honor roll lists the names of 114 retired missionaries who served 25 to 57 years. An average of 30 new recruits are sent out annually. The American Board has 1,345 [schools in foreign lauds and says that if pupils attending them were to form a parade and march. In abreast, it would require 18 hours for them to pass the reviewing Lland. TEXAS STUDIES COTTON ROADS Victoria. Tex., —(UP)— Cotton highways may soon relieve the farmer without benefit of legislation. That is, if certain experiments now being conducted by State Highway j Engineer Gibb Gilchrist are success ful. These experiments, being con ducted near Gonzales and Yoakum, are in line with a suggestion recently sent Gov. Ross Sterling by Leopold Moris, editor of the Victoria Advocate. “Highly compressed cotton, properly treated, would be more durable and cheaper than other road material, even at 18 cents a pound, according to preliminary investigations." Morris wrote Steiling shortly after he called the Texas Legislature into special session to pass a cotton acreage reduction. Buildings eroded many years ago I in New Orleans on cotton foundations are still standing." Morris said, "ami a leading railroad constructed in England, built through tyvamps on bales of cotton a halt century ago, is still in existence." Morris wants a congressional committee to study the matter, as well as highway engineers. He further recalled that several years ago w lien tlie price of rubber was low, the British Government built several highways of rubber. NEW SPRING AT VATICAN VATICAN CITY 'U.R) A seeonH spring of mineral water lias been discovered in the Pontifical State. The first, which has been known for centuries, is called the "Spring of the Bees,” or Fonte delle Apt." and is a natural spring of slightly effervescent alkaline water rising on the Vatican hill. The new spring, chemical analysis of which has not yet been I published, was discovered quite accidentally wlien the picks of some workmen clearing away the earth for a new building near the Governor's Palace, struck the spring which sent jets of water into the air. It is supposed that the water is of a similar quality to that of the “Spring of the Bees." which is regularly used by the cardinals ami prelates of the Vatican as a table water.

EARRINGS DATING BACK 2,500 YRS. PUT IN MUSEUM Trinkets Believed Worn By Women of Nebuchadnezzar’s Court Chicago, (UP)— Gold earrings which archaelogists believe were worn by ladies-in-waiting at Nebuchandnezzar’s court 2,500 years ago are on display at Field Museum of Natural History. Three pairs were found in the ruins of tlie ancient city of Kish, in a Babylonian grave dated as belongng to peiiod of Nebuchadnezzar who ruled over both Babyion and Kish. The ornaments illustrate both tlie skill of the ancient jewelsmiths ami the trend of style which royal ladies followed. One pair is formed of thin gold wire which penetrated the ear lobe. From a gold wire loop attached to the ear lobe depends a lunate ornament decorated with three rows of tiny pearls. Below this is a fluted ball fastened to a plain collar decorated around tlie base with the small pearl motif. Beneath this is a larger fluted ornament from which hang two rows of six small round ornaments. At the base of each ball is a triangular ornament of six round beads in the shape of an inverted pyramid. The central lower portion of the earring consists of two larger beads one above the other and terminated by an inverted pyramid consisting of 10 small beads. o ;— Sawdust Smothers Man Seattle, Wash.— (U.R) — Shifting sawdust in a large bin claimed the life of Perry Goodwin, 40-year-old laundry workers, after he had gone to sleep on the mass of wood shav- ' ings.
