    Jolanda Weds
Soldier Count
in Royal Hall
_:
Italian Princess Becomes Wife
of Obscure Nobleman Af
ter Surmounting Pa
rental Objections.
Rome. April 9.—A tall, slender, olive
planned girl, who, in the legends of ,
Italy, was “born to be a soldier's
bride,” fulfilled the prophesy here to
• lay when the Princess Jolanda, eldest
daughter of King Victor Ennnnauel
and Queen Elena, was married to
t bunt C'alvi Di Bergolo, a war veter
an. and a captain in the Italian army.
There were two services, one civil
and the second religious, in accord
ance with the ritual of the Roman ,
i atholic church. It was the first time
a religious nuptial ceremony had1
taken place in the royal hall of the
quirinal palace, formerly the throne 1
hall of the popes.
This was the first royal marriage in :
Italy In 27 years and the first in
Europe since the Princess Mary,,
daughter of King George of England, i
was married, 14 months ago. !(
The Princess Jolanda, a ljeautiful j
girl of 22. had been reported en- j
gaged to scions of two royal families 1
- first the prince of Wales, and later ;
to the crown prtneo of Belgium. Such i
a marriage contract would have a
large element of international policies
and diplomacy involved in it. The
wedding today was the. culmination
of a genuine love match, for the bride- i
groom is not .a member of royalty, i
He belongs only to the Piedemontcz !
petty nobility.
King and Queen Object.
Serious obstacles arose when Count |
Di Bergolo began to pay court to the 1
pretty princess. The king and queen ,
objected. But then Jolanda solicited
the aid of her grandmother, the for
mer Queen Elena, of Montenegro. She
proved an excellent diplomat, and the
parental objections were swept away. '
Italy's court was In mourning for 1
the late Queer. Elena, who died ;
shortly after the engagement was an
nounced, but the mourning period
was suspended for one day for the
nuptials.
After tho double ceremony Jolanda
received congratulations and her
cheeks were suffused with blushes of
happiness and excitement.
The wedding was a quiet affair,
compared with the nuptial events of
royal families in pre-war clays. Seven
hundred invitations were sent out, ;
l ut no representatives of foreign roy- |
al families were present.
Wedding Gifts Simple.
Owing to tho hard limes through 1
which Italy has been passing, Jolan- ,
da had requested that there be no
elaborate wedding presents, but that
the money intended for this purpose
should be turned over to charity. Con
sequently, most of the gifts were sim- ;
pie, useful articles. Count Di Berg- ,
olo’s gift was a great saphire, rec
tangular in shape and set in a ring
of platinum. Among the other gifts 1
were a pearl necklace, a grand piano,
a victrola, a silver fr^it service, a
table service of solid silver, china
of exquisite ancient make and de
sign and the like.
Simplicity and solemn dignity form
ed the keynote of the ceremonies. The
soldier-groom wore his uniform and
medals. He is 13 years older than his
bride.
Benito Mussolini, former socialist |
and editor, founder of the fascist!, and
now premier of Italy—a man noted
for his blunt speech and rigid disci
pline in public affairs—figured in the
civil ceremony. In his capacity as no
tary of the crown, the premier con
ducted the civil rites. During this
ceremony, Jolanda—who might have
been a reigning queen except for the
\agarics of love—renounced all her
royal rights, including that of succes
sion to the throne, her title of prin
i"-s and the qualification of royal
highness.
Icing at Wedding.
Among those present at the civil ,
reremony were King Victor Emanuel; i
Queen Elena; the parents of the j
.room; Princess Aage, sister of the |
room; a brother of ttie groom;
Marchioness Della Valle, aunt of the!
bride and Eady in waiting io Queen
Elena; the brothers and sihterH of the
l ride; President Tlttonl, the Crov.V i
llegistrar and thd army and anvy 1
officers; members of the diplomatic |
corps; members of parliament: mem- ;
brrs of the royal household: the
Dowager Queen Margaret; Duke and
Duchess of Aosta: Duke and Duchess
of Genova: Count of Turin; Duke of
Pnglio: Duke of Bergamo; Prince of
Udine; Duke of Ancona atm others.
After a wedding breakfast the
i ouple left on their honeymoon which
will be held near Pisa. Eater the
oouple will live quietly in their 10
room villa at Pine Kolo—their future
home. The princess will turn house
wife and conduct her ow n home Just
tike any woman in the lower ranks
of society.

Harding Back
from Vacation
Returns to Desk al bite
House After Five Weeks
in South.
Washington,’ April 9.—President
Harding was back at his desk today,
invigorated by his five weeks' vaca
tion in the south and ready to shoul
der again the accumulation of of
ficial business.
The president and Mrs. Harding ar
rived in Washington shortly after
noon yesterday from Augusta, tla..
where they spent last week.
Mrs. Harding was said to have
shown only the slightest evidence of
tatlgue from the 16-hour journey, and
her improved health was further
shown by the fact that she walked
through the station to the automobile
at the entrance, whereas on leaving
here she was driven direct to the pri
vate car in the railroad yards.
The president is taking up the im
portant matters now before him with
the intention of disposing of as many
of them as possible in the next two
months in order to clear the way for
the proposed western trip. The mid
dle of June is now sot as the tenta
tive time for the beginning of the
trip, but the president has not yet
definitely decided whether he will
carry out the proposed tour to the
Pacific coast, with a possible exten
sion to Alaska.
While Mrs. Harding lias greatly
benefited by her five weeks tn the
south, the president is deferring a de
cision on the western trip until he
feels assured on the advisability of
her undertaking such an extended
journey as the one contemplated.
In addition to various angles of
the political situation which are ex
pected to receive the president's at
tention In the next few weeks, the
immediate questions pending are the
sugar price situation and plans for
disposition of the government's mer
chant fleet.
A preliminary report from the tar
iff commission on the sugar question
is looked for in the next week or
two, while time required for the
preparation of data to be submitted
to the president on the merchant
marine problems mdk' defer action on
that for several weeks.

Light Cruiser Omaha
Proves Speedy Vessel
San Diego. April 9.—Although one
of its boilers was not working, the
new light cruiser Omaha made an av
erage speed of 34.1 knots, or more
than 38 miles an hour, for more than
nine hours on a trial run pft the Cali
fornia coast, according to word re
ceived at naval headquarters here Sun

Mellon Defends
a Lower Surtax
Secretary ot‘ Treasury Points
to Increased Collections
l tuler New Rate.
I_
Washington, April 9,—A *70.000,000
increase In the March collections of
Income ami profits taxes as compared
with the March collections of last
year, on which the higher income sur
tax rates applied, gives a practical
answer to the tax problem and "shows
clearly what course further revision
should take," Secretary Mellon de
clared in a statement last night.
Forecasting in his statement possi
ble efforts by the treasury to have
congress further cut the surtax rates
on incomes, Secretary Mellon assei led
that the March collections of t4i>3,
000,000 had fully justified his predic
tion that downward revision would
have the effect of increasing rather
than decreasing the federal revenue.
The secretary viewed the increase in
collections as proof that the downward
revision had acted as a stimulant to
business.
liven the present surtax rates, which
range to a maximum of 50 per cent
and give a combined maximum nor
mal and surtax of 58 per cent, Mr.
Mellon said, are tending to hamper
business and causing the large tax
payers to seek every possible means
of avoiding the realization of taxable
income. The March collections, he
said, had ’'confirmed hia conclusion
that if readjusted to the maximum of
23 per cent recommended by the j
treasury the surtaxes would better
accomplish thejr purpose and yield at
least as large and probably larger
revenues than the existing rates."

“365 days a
year
whether there are
any roads or not”
Ira Wilson &. Sons, Detroit, who
use 16 Heavy Duty Pierce-Arrow
Trucks, hauling milk from a 120
mile radius, write as follows:
“Our business demands that our
trucks be on the road every day,
365 days in the year, and they have
to haul milk whether there are any
roads or not. We have tried all
makes of trucks, and Pierce-Arrows
climb hills on high gear where other
trucks have to shift into low gear; do
it every day, and at much less cost.
“Our first Pierce-Arrow, which
w as delivered to us on October 15,
1920, has just been overhauled for
the first time (Nos’ember, 1922)
after having run over 80,OCX) miles.
We expected to spend a lot of
money for new parts. But we spent
less than $25.00 for new parts and
this was for bushings in the chassis.
The rear axle and transmission were
perfect, and we could find no place
to put any new part in the motor.”
Pierce-Arrow Trucks are being op
erated successfully in 174 industries
and trades. Let us show you how
much more economical and profitable
