Secluded Chesapeake Bay Isle Hinted as Wallis’ Future Home
WYE MILLS, Md, Sept. 6—On
a picturesque and secluded Chesa-
peake Bay island, five miles from here, workmen are restoring a 147-
year-old mansion which, according
to rumors among the wealthy folk
f the neighboring estates, is to be the future home of the Duke and
uchess of Windsor.
Reports of the former British King’s interest in the undertaking, on which about $350,000 is being spent, have persisted in the face of denials by associates of the millionaire owner, W. H. Stillwell of New
York and Chicago.
Mr. Sttlwell is abroad and has not seen the mansion since the restora-
tion was started this spring. In-®—
formed of rumors that the home is to be occupied by the ex-King, he authorized a démial. He intends to live there himself, he insisted. The! home is historic Wye Hall, built in 1790 by William Paca, leader , of the Revolutionary cause in Maryland, signer of the Declaration of Independence and Governor of
Rumors involving tnis particular estate have apparently been ‘kept alive by Mr. Stilwell’s reputed acquaintance with Herman L: Rogers, who has acted as spokesman for the Duke, and by recurring reports from abroad that the ex-King and
his bride, the former Wallis War-
field Simpson of Baltimore, are considering a residence in this country. Since his abdication, marriage and establishment of a temporary residence in Austria, various reports have associated the ex-King with negotiations for the estate of William B. Leeds at Cove Neck, IL. I, the castle-like residence of Sumner A. Parker near Brooklandville, Md., 10 miles from Baltimore, the 1200acre North Wales Club near Warrenton, Va. and other Eastern properties. Mr. Rogers, on the Duke’s behalf, has denied some of the stories but has never denied that the. Duke and Duchess are looking for a residence in America. >

Saturday. Judging probably will be | completed tonight, officials said. A night show is scheduled in front of the grandstand at 8 o'clock. Tonight's program also includes a horse show in the Coliseum. Tomorrow has been designated Governor's and Legislators’ Day. Livestock judging is to be continuad. All saddle horses have been moved from the Cattle Barn this year and every stall is occupied by cattle.
Counties Vie for Honors
Counties vied for recognition with exhibits in three divisions in the Agricultural Building—agricultural, home economics snd horticultural divisions. Crowds visiting the Indiana University Building saw 28 displays illustrating new developments in science and education. | They also attended a twelve-and-a-half hour daily stage program, including music by the Hoosier Music Festival symphonic band, the I.

New Horse Barn Dedicated
Officials from outstanding fairs and exhibitions over the United States and Canada visited the E. 38th St. exposition over the week-
| end.
A drawing card yesterday was the dedication of the new Saddle and Light Horse Barn, which opened the 1937 horse show program. The ceremony gave special recognition to veteran light horse exhibitors of 30 years ago. A huge crowd witnessed the activities. Breaking a 14%-inch ear of corn over the concrete inscription plaque, Governor Townsend said: “rd rather do this than dedicate a battleship with a bottle of champagne. I think this ear of corn is more valuable than champagne and this building more valuable that a battleship.”
‘Thrill’ Driver Injured
Thousands attended the formal horse show opening in thé Coliseum last night. Thousands more Wwitnessed the “Soaring High” review in front of the grandstand.
Capt. F. F. Frake's stunt program thrilled grandstand crowds in the afternoon. Miss Jean DeLuca received minor head injuries when an auto she was driving overturned after she had completed a T0-foot jump from a ramp over another car.
Capt. Frake crashed an airplane into an improvised house in the center of the racetrack. Head-on auto crashes, a flying “death leap” by Jimmy Sweet as he drove a car through a flaming board wall, auto races and a ride over exploding dynamite by Miss DeLuca were other features on the program.

FAIR SIDELIGHTS
Four reasons officials cited why this year’s State Fair is the biggest ever are increased interest in scientific farming, better financial position of farmers, encouragement of youth in farm matters through 4-H Clubs and favorite weather conditioris, There are 70,000 4-H Club members. The Fair board issued 9000 free tickets to club leaders.
Coach W. H. Thom directed physical education demonstrations on the stage in the Indiana University Building. Livestock contestants must pay room rent for their animals. Box horse stalls are $5, pony stalls are $1 a week. Cattle stalls are $2 and no reduction for two in a bed. Sheep and swine get off for $2 a week.
Benny Kauackes, Chicago, appeared at the hospital after having lost his voice riding a whirligig. His companion said, “The same thing happened to him in Columbus, O., several days ago. Doctors were unable to find his voice.
One man appeared at the hospital and asked for iodine to covér the cut on the leg of a prize hog. Nurses obliged him and he invited them over to see the patient.
There are 115 City policemen at the Fair Grounds. Inspector John Mullins is in charge.
Although there is much of the carnival air about Indiana State Fair, a check failed to reveal a single gas balloon on the grounds.
O. L. Reddish, Hog Show manager, reported this year’s is the largest hog exhibit since the national hog show here in 1929.
NEW PARLYSIS CASES FEARED
More School Openings Are ~ Delayed as Frost Is Awaited.
CHICAGO, Sept. 6 (U. P.) —Postponement of school openings spread today in anticipation of higher temperatures which officials feared vould bring new cases of infantile paralysis, already general throughout the nation. : Fair and warmer weather was
forecast for most of the Middle West
by the U. S. Weather Bureau at Chicago. - 1 Health authorities in Chicago, first to'order postponement of school reopening, indicated the vacation would be extended to the first of October unless there is a decided break before that time in the number of new cases being reported. School openings also have. been postponed in Toronto, Ont., Buffalo, Milwaukee, Waukesha, Wig., Council Bluffs, Ia, and San Diego County, California. Surveys showed more than 1000 persons stricken in the United States and Canada, with approximately 300 deaths, during the last two weeks. Health authorities said cool weather of the week-end might retard spread of the disease but a real frost is needed to end the danger. A medical staff in Michael Reese Hospital, Chicago, worked throughout the week-end classifying persons who have recovered from the disease and are willing to donate blood to save others.

The Chinese foreign office announced that China has decided to make a formal appeal to the League of Nations against the Japanese aggression. The Japanese drive toward rich Shantung province in North China began with an attack on Chinese positions in Machang, north of the Yellow River. Japanese continued to extend the war front in Southern China. Chinese sources said Japanese warships had shelled Sanwei, 80 miles norta of Hongkong and had tried to land troops.

TOKYO, Sept. 6 (U.

Minister Hirota’s appearance before the Budget Committee followed an address to the emergency session of Parliament by Premier Prince Fumimaro Konoye who declared that Japan will finance her undeclared war without borowing any funds abroad. The Premier asked Parliament to approve his economic program, which will make Japan virtually a totalitarian state like Germany and Italy.

He is confabbing with monocled generals. For Hore-Belisha is a man with a load of trouble. He thrives on it. First it was murder on the high roads. Now it is the Army. Explanation is needed, Hore-Be-lisha is one of the youngest men in the cabinet and one of the most ambitious. Like his fellow-Jew, the late great Lord Beaconsfield, he is said to harbor the dream of being Prime Minister of this England. Long ago he started preparing himself for it. He went to the correct prep school. Then he had a fine career at famous Oxford University. Among other things, he pinched off one of the greatest student honors —he became President of the Union, the celebrated literary and debating society of the university.

In 1931 he became Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Trade. In 1932 he was advanced to Financial Secretary to the Treasury. In 1934 he joined the cabinet as Minister of Transport.

the sum total of persons killed and wounded sounds like the figures of losses in a fair-sized battle. There was an outcry that this murder must cease. : So Hofe-Belisha devised various methods whereby pedestrians would have safer passage across roads and streets. One of his inventions was a black and white post, topped with a hig orange colored china

both to pedestrians and to motorists where the former had a right to cross and where the latter must slow up. The poles became universally known as “Belisha beacons.” When Premier Chamberlain took over the reins from Stanley Baldwin, he reshuffled the cabinet. DuffCooper had been a failure in the war office. The great trouble was that the army did not succeed in recruiting enough men to keep it up to strength. It fell short by 25,000. The Navy got all the men it wanted. So did the Air Force. But young men fought shy of the land forces. Now Battling Red Tape
Premier Chamberlain had a bright idea. Hé would promote his “young man with a load of trouble.” If he wanted more trouble, he would find plenty of it in the war office. So Hore-Belisha became leader of the Army. He found the rule-in the Army was that a man enlisted for seven years and was then in the reserve for five years.
