Frank Jmney’s Wife Says She Is Not Angry Smiles as She Discusses Plan of Imogene Wilson to Join Comedian in England —but Cables Him. By KATHRYN LEIBMAN. I’nivrraal Service Staff Correspondent. New York, Sept. 19.—While Mrs. Frank Tlnney today smiled and said she was not angry because Imogene AVilson intends to salt tomorrow to meet Tinney in England, from an other source It was learned that she not only communicated her Intense displeasure to her husband by cable but that someone In Baldwin, L. I., also sent an undersea flash to the English government. Whether it is her purpose to put stumbling blocks in the way of "Bub bles" landing at Plymouth was not made clear. Miss Wilson was warned of the move, and said she was taking the atrical costumes and "props" with her to prove that she Is going abroad to seek professional engage ments and that her objective is Paris, not London—that the British metropolis is only a stop-off on the way. Wife Merely Laughs. Aboard the Columbus, the ship on which she and Tlnney's valet both have passage booked, she is expect ed about sunrise tomorrow morning. She has arranged for privacy, un disturbed by photographers and other intruders, peepers and qulzzers. Mrs. Tinney commented: "It must be thrilling to have your sweetheart send for you from across an ocean.” There had been a rumor that this would lead Mrs. Tinney to sue for alienation of affections. She laughed: "AVhat good would that do me? All the girl has is a few trunks, and I don’t want those. But If Frank wants to spend his money I wish he t would pay our boy's tuition at St. John Academy. "However, I guess he will do that. Frank is generous, you know.” No Divorce Suit. Mrs. Tinney was not the least sur prised or angered by this latest show of her husband’s devotion to the for mer Follies girl. She said she was far past that state. She added: "AVhat’s the sense of getting one self upset? Love will always find a way. And If Frank and Miss AA’ilson love each other—well, that’s all right With me. I suppose it all happened because the romance in our love wore off and so Frank sought it else where." AVhen asked whether she still loves her husband, she answered: "I will always hold a good thought for him, but I don’t suppose that is love.” Though a separation suit Is pend ing. Mrs. Tinney balked at the sug gestion of a divorce, saying: 1 "Divorce Frank? I should say not. ^ ft will be only after I am dead that Miss Wilson will have a chance of be romlng Mrs. Tinney. And maybe not then." FOSTER ATTACKS ALL CANDIDATES By Associated Preas. Fargo, N. D., Sept. 19.—Severe lenunciation of the economical policy >f the republican and democratic par ties, as well as the independent ean Bidacy of Senator Robert M. La Fol lette was made in an address here tonight by William Z. Foster, workers party candidate for the presidency. Foster stopped In Fargo enroute to the Pacific • coast where he Is scheduled to make several addresses In furtherance of the workers party campaign. “There Is as much difference be tween the policies of Coolidgc and Davis as there Is between the words 'tweedle dee dum' and 'tweedle detum,’ said Foster. “Each party Is absolutely controlled by the Wall street capitalist. The American yvorker Isn’t represented In either of them." “Senator La Follette Is the candi date of the middle class of America," he said, “but this middle class is eon trblled by the smaller capitalist. The la, Follette movement is merely a movement of the smaller capitalist to gain material advantage along with the over-powerful capitalist of the east. But, I warn you, if La Follette ever wins his way to the presidency he will be at the service of the capi talist. large and small." When In need of help try Omaha Fee Want Ads. _ AI> V KKT1S KM ENT.

Real Home of Sheiks Has Many Lures in Heart of African Desert London, Sept. 20.—The real African desert has a dozen shapes, a dozen aspects, a dozen colors, a dozen at mospheres, for It is a world of peo ple, not merely a wilderness of geog raphy. When you slip through the moun tains which rise from the African shores of the Mediterranean, it is early morning, with the sun shining coldly like a moon, and a wind which pierces a whole thatch of overcoats. A jagged ribbon of white edges a dis tant peak. It is snow, and that ex plains why the mountains are green and carpeted with wild flowers. The road runs among vines, which are many in Tunisia, and then among olive trees. With its green-grey air the olive tree completely personifies the spirit of resignation. Once you are fairly in the desert meetings with tribes and companies of Arabs are constant. They are coming up from the south with the advance of summer and the passing of vegetation. Atfer hours In the sirocco of the Sahara orr faces were sore and our eyes red with its glare and its flying sands. A darkish patch rose on the far sky line, and as we came near to it we saw palm trees, and then the oasis. The change from the sands, dun and dour, to that of greenery and growth was, though the example Is petty; like leaving a gravel walk for a rich lawn carpeted with grass and daisies. Here was a place flowing with water, and yet the thirst of the desert was near. This was nothing like the oasis of the stories, for a whole river runs through it, and several thou sands of people, mostly Arabs, live upon it. It has streets of houses and shops, and is the rendezvous for all the activities of the region. Its mar ket is alive with sheep for the siaug ter, with beast of burden, led by the grumbling camel, and with raiment, plain or gorgeoui’, such as Arabs wear. It is a capital of the Sahara. Figs and dates, grapes and olives grow here; It even aspires to cultivate the difficult tobacco plant. Flowers bloom brilliantly In the early spring, and only die away when the sun be com#s so hot as to consume them. The Europeans of the oasis take flight to the north before then, and the Arabs are left in solitary posses sion. They stay indoors most of the day, dozing perhaps, but follow their pursuits when the dark curtain of night shuts off the brazen sun. The oasis cannot help being as hot, about midsummer, as the nether world, but even so its river of life flows on, coming from some secret cavern of the desert, and passing Into the sea when It has given its refresh ment. Its waters are slate-grey in color, tepid In temperature, entirely empty of any sort of fish. A stranger wonders at the lazy for getfulness of the terrible desert on the part of th» people of an oasis. No doubt it is the complacency of habit, the security of a bountiful supply of water, and all that means. Maughan Is Modest About His Epochal Daum-to-Dusk Flight San Francisco, Sept. 20.—Modesty is the greatest characteristic of Lieut. Russell L. Maughan, whose sensational flight across the conti nent betwen dawn and dusk definite ly revealed the possibilities of the airplane. "Anyone could have done it.” said Maughan almost as soon as the con gratulations began to pour upon him from thousands of enthusiastic Amer icans in all parts of the country. Maughan Is hardly a handsome man. He bears a striking resem blance In the stamp of his features to the rawboned backwoods type popularized during the covered wagon days and previous to those days by such men as Lincoln. Not tall, he yet lends the Impres sion of height when he Is dressed In military uniform, his wide shoul ders and slender figure accentuating his five feet nine—possibly, 10. Maughan's face Is a study in hu man types. His home Is In Utah. Seventy-odd years ago his ancestors pushed their way across the contl BRITAIN ADMITS RUSSIAN RIGHT tty Awidulsd Prrtt*. Moscow, Sept. 19,—Soviet official*, express satisfaction over the sucre.-s of the expedition on the nrrncd trails, port Krasny Oktiabr (Red October), In planting the red flag on Wrangell Island, of northern Siberia, taking formal possession in behalf of the soviet republic. They believe this action will settle the status of the Island, which has been In dispute for more than a half century. They regard It as an Im portant base for a wireless station und depot of supplies In event of war. It now develops that flreat Britain recognizes Russia’s l ight to the Island In the recent negotiations In London. Although the soviets have never had *he opportunity of surveying and appraising the resources of the island, the government Is prepared to lease It to Americans or others for devel opment, provided Russia la given ad equats participation In the revenues. A good part of Wrangell island is barren, but other portions produce ex cellent furs and fish. It also has a certain potential value In the ev<nt of the laying of Intercontinental rnli wuy between America and Asia. r John Quincy Adams’ Descendant at White House Washington, Sept. 19.—The grent TTaniloon of tho first occupant of the present White House was shown through tho executive mansion today by President Coolldge. He was Officer Thomaa H. Willett, rilreet descendant of" President John Quincy Adams and one of a detach ment of Portland, Ore., who called to pey their respects to 1'real dent Cool idgo. 1,earning of Willett's ancestry, the president singled h'JM out of the group und Insisted upon aj' "I'tlng him In person through the executive man sion.

The man might he one of those pioneers—to see him in repose. A return to that original stock, he has been called, and during the half-hour In xx’hlch he gave thg thousands who had assembled at Crissey field, when the flight was completed, a chance to see hitn, there were many who called attention to that fact. ".Vaughan looks like a back-woods man. No wonder he was able to last out the day,” one man said as the avlatpr leaned over the balcony of the headquarters building, telling the crowd it was nothing as far ns he was concerned—merely evidence that American flying Is on as high a plane ns that In any other country. "We need money from congress now more than anything else if our branch of the army Is to continue Its progress,” he said. "You know there are only three scout planes like mine In the army' today. Congress has provided for 25 more, but that Isn't many. We should have more—they're good ships. "Nevertheless, In spite of our ob solete equipment, the 1'nlted States holds every record.

Miss Carrie Holmes, 3186 Ames ave nue, who operates a store at Thirty third and Ames avenue, was standing in the doorway of her establishment when the accident occurred. "I can’t say hnw fast the boys were going," she said, "but I know they were going a good deal faster than automobiles are usually driven.

TRADE DEMANDS ARE BROADENING N'ew York, Sept. 19.—Dun'a tomor row will say: "Whlls the general business situation continues In the main to reflect cautious buying with more attention being paid to current requirements than to future needs, there has been a perceptible broaden ing In demand In many quarters. The conservatism being so widely prac ticed lias been to a considerable ex tent offset by tha early advent of cool weather which, following Imme diately a spell of the summer’s high est temperature, proved to be a most potent stimulant to retail trade. "The active consumptive demand for practically all kinds of seasonable commodities has been promptly re flected In Improved buying In the wholesale market while thle Improve ment Is not altogether uniform, there being few departments that have not been benefited more or less from the gain already established to some ex tent In iron and steel, lumber, dry goods, hides and leather and other Im portant Industries and there are numerous Indications that a wide spread paucity of supplies caused by the hand to mouth buying policy practiced for several months past will have to be remedied at an early date."

Its terror Is directed at hon est, law-abiding citizens, negroes, Jews and Catholics. These groups In Kansas compose more than one-fourth of our population. They are entitled to their full constitutional rights; their rights to life, liberty and pur suit of happiness. They menace no one. They are good citizens, law abiding, God-fearing, prosperous, pa triotic. Yet, because of their skin, or their race, or their creed, the Ku Klux Klan in Kansas is subjecting them to economK boycott, to social ostracism, to every form of harass ment. annoyance and every terror that a bigoted minority can use. “And the leaders of two major parties in this state lift no hand to defend these people. “I want to be governor to free Kansas from the disgrace of the Ku Klux Klan., And 1 want to offer Kansans afraid of the klan and ashamed of that disgrace a candidate who shares their fear and shame. So I am in the race to stay and win.” WIDOW OF CARUSO HAS NEW DAUGHTER New York, Sept. 19.—Gloria Caruso, i daughter of the late Enrico Caruso, has a half sister, Jacquelin Dorothy Ingram.
