Four years of separation and reflection failed to dim the love of Miss Mary McClintic, daughter of Representative James V. McClintic, for Richard W. Leibert, organist at the Palace Theater, so late yesterday they eloped to Baltimore, were married and today are embarked safely upon their honeymoon somewhere in New York. It was the second time the two, Mr. Leibert, now 23, and his bride, 19, had eloped.

The first was in 1922, when they motored to Upper Marlboro after a brief acquaintance and were married. Upon hurrying back i home, however, their romance was wrecked on the rocks of parental objections. Mr. McClintic had the marriage annulled. Although Mr.

McClintic agreed at the time that he would interpose no objections if the couple waited until Miss McClintic attained her majority, they decided to take no further chances. Accompanied only by Mr. and Mrs. Emery Dougherty, old and trusted friends, they went to Baltimore shortly after 3 yesterday afternoon, reaching the license bureau a few minutes before it closed. The next stop was the rectory of Old St.

Episcopal Church, only a few blocks away, where Rev. Dr. Arthur B. Kinsolving performed the ceremony. Still unwilling to risk new parental interference, they boarded a tram a few minutes later, announcing that they would wire Mrs.

parents when the train neared New York. Mr. McClintic, who is a Representative in Congress from Oklahoma, is recuperating from a recent illness at Mot Springs, Ark. Mrs. McClintic is living at their apartment in the Chastleton.

Mrs. Leibert was in her junior year ft George Washington University and it is understood her parents had wanted her to graduate before being married. GOVERNORS GO HUNTING. Trumbull of Connecticut Guest of Florida Executive. JACKSONVILLE, December 7 John H.

WHEATLEY. Probable action by the National Capital Park and Planning Commission, at its meeting here on Friday, on two sections of the development scheme will bring to a focus the all-important question as to who is going to pay for this improvement when it reaches outside the borders of the District of CPlumb'a. The particular plans which will bring this question up will be the submission to the of a scheme for the development of a regional system of highways and one for regional continuation of the park system of the National Capital. There is no question of the fact that money will be needed, and much of it, to carry the beautification scheme into Maryland and Virginia. Col.

U. S. Grant, 3d, executive officer of the commission, said that the matter of footing the bills would have be faced, but that it was probable the commission would not attempt to decide this question, involving three separate political entities. The commission, it Is believed, he said, would confine itself to laying out the plans for the regional development, set the boundaries beyond which the work should not go. and then leave to Congress the matter of finding out who is to pay for the improvement outside of the District.

Provision for Funds. Os course, there is ample provision in the amended park commission act to give the commission authority to take the funds appropriated by Congress for its development work and spend them for the purchase of park lands and playgrounds in Maryland and Virginia, but the commission has consistently refused to use any of this fund, which amounts to $600,000 a year, for the purchase of any lands outside of Washington. The reason for this is that all of this $600,000 is furnished by the taxpayers of the District. As long as this money comes from District taxpayers the park and planning commissioners have felt that its use should be confined absolutely to the purchase of benefits w-lthin the There have been efforts to have the oommission purchase lands outside of Washington, but with this policy adopted the commission has insisted on carrving it out. both in letter and spirit.

The Park Commission act provides for the appropriation each year of 1 rent for each inhabitant of the United States, as determined by the "receding census, and this fund is he used by the commission for the purchase of lands for park and playground purposes. But Congress has never allowed the full amount. Virginia has provided for the annolntment of a commission to act tointly with the National Capital bodv regional planning in Arlington and part of Fairfax Count'es. and Maryland has taken steps which, it is expected. will he made official by the legislature when it convenes at Annapolis next month.

Payment to Be Discussed. Parts of Montgomery and Prince Georges Counties in Maryland will be included in the regional plan. Just how mueh will be discussed this week when delegates from the two States will meet officially with the commission for the first time. It is probable CAFETERIA Under Original Management FRANK P.

Y. Avenue 1330 Street Convenient downtown shopping environmen delicious food reasonable prices. Ask the Cashier About Accommodation $5.50 for $5 I the question as to who is to pay for the development in the so-called metropolitan area outside of Washington will be thoroughly threshed out. While the commission has refused to use any of its appropriations for the purchase of property outside of the District, it has used some of the District money to prepare plans and collect information necessary for laying down a broad regional scheme. This Includes the hiring of a corps of experts, who have been working for some months.

The morning session of the commission Friday will be given over to the approval of plans for highway changes, which had been recommended by its co-ordinating committee, and finally approved by the District Commissioners after a public hearing of property owners whose land was to be affected. In the afternoon the commission will begin its regional plan discussions, the first of which will be consideration of a regional highway system which has been tentatively laid down by the experts. This will consist of laying down vhe main arterial streets through the entire regional area, picking certain streets in the District of Columbia and deciding where they should connect with roadways in Maryland and Virginia, and where they should lie laid down in these respective territories. After laying down these arterial streets and highways, the comnvssion will attempt to lay down the feeders and interconnecting roads. Traffic Survey Made.

This plan has been made through a study of the recent traffic survey made by a private corporation for the local Public Utilities Commission and augmented by the studies of traffic at certain points by experts, to determine where present traffic volume starts, what routes it now follows and where it goes. This part of the study has been general to some extent, as there has been no effort to make a traffic survey along any of the proposed regional highways. The question probably will take up the entire afternoon, leaving for Saturday the dtscussion of the regional park system, which will attempt to tie up the park system of 'he District with the proposed regional park system of Maryland and Virginia, recommending extensions md lands to be purchased. This is he report that will bring up the matter of payment, which finally will go to Congress unless the can he prevailed upon to urge their State Legislatures to provide the funds. It is the purpose of the commission to lay down a broad parkway scheme for the regional area now, so that prompt efforts may he made to purchase the land in advance of commercial development and thus save hundreds of thousands of dollars.

PUNCH PARTY DESCRIBED AT TRIAL Coast Guard Vessel Given Ingredients for Affair by Bum Runner Say Witnesses. By the Associated Press.

BOSTON, December 7. punch party in the galley of a Coast Guard patrol boat, to which a rum schooner contributed peach brandy, vermouth I and White Horse Scotch, was describ- ed yesterday by two Government witnesses before a naval court-martial board trying Chief Mate Robert E. Taylor on charges of trafficking with rum runners. Taylor formerly commanded the patrol boat CG-130. Edward W.

Doten and George A. Carpenter, both chief mates and former members of the crew of the 130, told of the punch party. Thev said that one time when the patrol boat was tied up to the Arsene a vessel on rum row, choice liquors were passed aboard and mixed up for punch. The party that followed, the witnesses related, was held in the gal-. ley and was attended by the skipper and mate of the rum ship as well as the crew of the patrol boat.

Doten and Carirenter both testified that they had received money from Taylor. The former said he had re- ceived S2O at one time and Carpenter said he had been given S4O. Taylor, the third of a group of I four Coast Guard officers to be tried i here, is charged in nine specifications with conduct and trafficking with rum first things, probably recommend the extension of Rock Creek Park up the valley into Maryland so as to preserve the watershed. Mr. Olmsted has been assisted by employes of the commission.

Maryland is particularly interested In preserving the watershed of the Northwest Branch, a tributary of the Eastern Branch of the Potomac River, as at Burnt Mills is located one of the water supply stations for Montgomery and Prince Georges Counties. If this plant is to be continued, the area through which the branch runs must be preserved to insure a full supply of water at all times. There has been a move on foot for some time for the purchase of along this section, but nothing been done. It is probable the State Legislature will get his problem at its coming session.

BRITISH MANSION TO BE SOLD House Given Her on Marriage in 1895 Likely to Become Home of Auto Club. By the Associated Press. LONDON, December 7.

House, the magnificent 50-room mansion which was presented to Consuelo Vanderbilt by her father on her marriage to the Duke of Marlborough in 1895, will be sold and probably will I become the home of a new automo- I bile club. The sale price is reported to have been set at between £70,000 and 1 which is much below the cost of the house, one of the most magnificent mansions in England. The marriage of Consuelo Vanderbilt and the Duke of Marlborough, one of the great social events of its time, recently was annulled by the Roman Catholic Church on the ground that Miss Vanderbilt had been coerced into the marriage.
