CABINET FACING BITTER STRUGGLE By DAVID M. CHURCH (I.N.S. Staff Correspondent) LONDON, April 29—Parliament reassembled today after the Easter recess with the labor movement facing a bitter struggle over the budget and the Irish boundary dispute. Reparations will be brot up but this does not offer much difficulty as all political factions are supporting the Dawes plan. “There are strenuous weeks ahead but I am returning to work full of hope and encouragement,” said Premier Ramsey MacDonald. The cabinet was summoned this morning to give final consideration to the budget—labor’s first budget in the history of England—which Chancellor of the Exchequer Phillip Snowden introduces in commons later in the day. It was considered probable that the so-called McKenna duties upon foreign motor cars, films, musical instruments and clocks would be lifted entirely or modified. Liberal members have already announced their intention of opposing such a reduction. Manufacturing interests have opened a campaign in favor of maintaining the McKenna duties in the interests of home industries. The frontier dispute between the Free State and Ulster is causing the cabinet anxiety. The Free State has sent a note to London asking for complete enforcement of the Anglo-Irish treaty. Negotiations over the boundary issue are deadlocked, but it is expected that Colonial Secretary J.H. Thomas will soon ask for special legislation which will enable the labor government to intervene. AMERICAN HEIRESS’ WEDS BRITISH PEER ASHEVILLE, N.C., April 29—Amid all the splendor that America ca and England could offer, Miss Cornelia Vanderbilt, heirs to the $50,000,000 estate of the late Geo.W.Vanderbilt, at noon to day was dressed in All Souls church near here to Hon.John Francis Amphorbia Cecli formerly Mr. Vern Melvin and Mr. Merwin LaRice attended the auto races at Ascot park Sunday. Mrs. McClintock and Mrs. Penhall were Westminster visitors Saturday. MARY P. NEILSON SUES FOR DIVORCE SANTA BARBARA, April 29—Mary Park Nelson of New York filed suit for divorce today against Raymond Neilson, her famous naval officer-businessman-artist husband in a complaint redolent of the studio life of Bohemian Paris and New York and the smart social life of Bar Harbor and New York, charging cruelty and frequent love affairs with his pretty models and fashionable sitters for the portraits which have been exhibited on both sides of the Atlantic. Mrs. Neilson stated in her complaint that when she married Neilson he was an officer in the navy. That was in 1906. Later he resigned from the service and went into the real estate business and then decided that his mission in life was to paint. Here the trouble began, according to Mrs. Neilson. For her husband, she said, had no money with which to study art and support his family, so she used her own personal allowance, granted by her father, to pay for his art training and to send him to Paris. It was in Paris that the first of a series of sensational affairs with models was alleged to have taken place. The death toll from autos is increasing in the state of Washington. Four times as many men as women are killed.
