ATLANTA, Ga., Oct. 11. (By th
Associated Press.) Mrs. Onezima
de Bouchele announced tonight that
she would return to her home
New Orleans tomorrow and con
tinue the fight to obtain the names
of the persons she said Asa Lr.
Candler Sr., Atlanta capitalist, told
her brought him reports reflecting
on her and which caused him to
break his engagement to marry her.
'Sympathy for a lonely old man,
whose children had grown away
from his and a. companionship I
craved, rather than love, inspired
mv ensrasrement to Asa (j. oanaie.
Sr.," said Mrs. Onezima. de Bouchele,
beautiful New Orleans divorcee,
whose engagement to the Atlanta
capital st was abruptly terminated.
She wan awaitlncr arrival of her at
torney to confer over charges of
indiscretion alleged to nave oeen
made aeainst her bv Candler. "I
do not want a- single penny of
Candler's money, she asserted,
"but they will have to pay and pay
dearly for their attempt to wrecit
mv reDUtation with insults.
In a public statement yesterday
Candler had informed her It would
be impossible for him to marry as
he had received information that sne
had Invited two men to visit her
rooms in a local hotel during the
confederate reunion here in 1919.
Diacloaure la Demanded.
"Mr. Candler shall tell the world
that the slander of unprincipled men
is not the reason he has cast off the
woman whom he asked to be hie
wife," she reiterated today. "He
must disclose the slanderers. Tell
him and the world that women are
not always fortune hunters thatf
heritage of pride does not succumb
to material desires. This shall be
done."
Mrs. de Bouchele, whose announce
ment of her engagement to Candler
several months ago attracted na
tional attention, is typical of the
rreneh type. Her eyes are grayish
blue and her hair auburn. She is
wealthy and is said to have de
scended on both sides of her family
from the French aristocracy.
When Mrs. de Bouchele attended
the Confederate reunion in Atlanta
as chaperon-general, she related,
Candler entertained the ladles of her
court, sent them candy and flowers,
placed his automobile at their dis
posal and otherwise "acted as any
gentleman would."
After she had returned to her
home in New Orleans, a correspon
dence developed, she continued, and
the capitalist told her "how his
daughter before her marriage had
always met him at the door and
placed her arms around his neck;
but that now it was 'hello, father,'
as she passed him to embrace her
husband."
Rngffed Elements Attract.
The Louisiana woman took a trip
to Switzerland on her return Cand
ler met her at the pier in New
York, she said.
"Those rugged elements of his
character, which enable him to rise
from a comparatively low station in
life to the height of financial stand
ing, attracted and fascinated me,"
she said.
"While he did not have a back
ground of generations of courtly
refinement, he possessed all the ele
ments of a gentleman. He was, I
thought, the ideal type kind, con
siderate and solicitous of my wel
fa re.
"The most outstanding ruin which
confronts me today," she continued
after a pause, "is that the strong,
masterful personality is plastic,
molded into shape by the wills of
others. At heart I believe he yearns
for the Utopia we had planned, but
he was overcome by the desires of
others. And the worst of all is his
lack of faith in me.
"That he would be made to be
lieve in the face of proof the state
ments of dastardly slanderers; that
1 should be condemned without a
hearing these things have seared
my soul. And from this wound has
risen the determination that the
honored name of my ancestors shall
not be blackened without defense,
even though there is only a woman
to bear the sword."
loans Men Distrusted.
Left an orphan early in child
hood, in New Orleans, where she
was born, Mrs. de Bouchele attended
the Holy Cross and Ursuline con-
, vents there. Later she finished her
education at Notre Dame in Canada.
-.She then returned to New Orleans
as a reigniny beauty.
- After a marriage, which ended un
happily, she became convinced that
the "young man" is incapable of
' "fidelity to his marriage vows," she
1 said, adding that she became a
"man-hater" until her engagement
, to Candler occurred.
Until she has conferred with her
attorney, Harry Gamble, whom she
. expected to arrive today, Mrs. de
Bouchele said she would be unable
to say definitely what court action,
; if any. would be taken.
Candler's only reply to her pub
i s h e d statements was issued
through his attorneys after he was
said to have left Atlanta yesterday.
; He asserted that confidential in-
formation given him by friends had
made marriage with Mrs. de Bou
chele impossible and that he would
r.ot disclose the names of the informants.

Annual Conference In Seattle De

Peeling Vital Issues.
PUGET SOUND BUREU, Seattle
Wash.. Oct. 11. The question of
axes, much discussed just now
throughout the state of Washington.
promptly made its appearance in the
second annual state forestry con
ference, which convened this morn-
ng at Seattle. Reforestation, gen-
rally conceded to be a state tunc-
lon, will cost money.
Legislative appropriations nave to
be sustained by taxation. Whether
the state can stand for more taxes
to perpetuate the timber supply, or
whether the possible alternative of
long-period bond issue will be
acceptable, are points to be threshed
out before tomorrow afternoon when
the resolutions committee of the
conference will make its final re
port. Lively differences of opinion
were declared at the opening ses
sion.
Taxation of timber lands, a state
policy in regard to the administra
tion of national forests within the
state, fire prevention and the abate
ment of the smoke nuisance, are
among the other problems under
consideration by the conference.
Hugo Winkenwerder, dean of the
school of forestry at the state uni
versity, is presiding over the conference.

DETROIT, Oct. 11. Development
of aeronautics In America is possible
only under federal supervision and
regulation of flying, -speakers rep
resenting ail branches of aviation
declared today in addressing the na
tional air institute here.
The institute was preliminary to
the annual meeting of the second
national aero congress, opening here
tomoiTOW in conjunction with the
national air races..
. Emergency Fields Needed.
Licensing of pilots and aircraft,
supervision of landing places and
insistence upon emergency landing
fields, education of the business and
general public to the safety and
desirability of aerial development
and regulation of the legal rights
and liabilities of aircraft, all under
federal regulation and supervision,
were among the suggestions of the
various speakers.
The speakers included Charles F.
Redden of New York, president of
a commercial aerial line; E. P. War
ner of the Massachusetts Institute
of Technology, and Dr. Joseph S.
Ames, Johns Hopkins university;
J. Rowland Bibbins, manager of the
department of transportation of the
United States Chamber of Com
merce. More than 12.000 pounds of first
class mail is delivered from three
to four hours earlier each day than
would be the case if the postoffice
department had no air mail service.
Assistant Postmaster-General Hen
derson said.
Mlfht Flying Possible.
Mr. Henderson further explained
that "to get from the airplane all
that it may offer in the shape of
postal service it will be necessary
to fly at night."
' "With this thought in mind," ho
continued, "we have for the past
four months conducted an exten
sive series of experiments and study
on the subject. Our experiments
and study have reached the staga
where it is, I think, safe to con
clude that it is entirely possible to
fly at night. We expect within a
few weeks to light as an experi
ment our Chicago field, and I pre
dict within six or eight months we
will be able to fly from Chicago
to Cheyenne at night.
, "If we are successful in this it
will mean that we will be able to
make a transcontinental flight from
New York to Chicago in the dav
time, Chicago to Cheyenne at night,
and from Cheyenne to San Fran
cisco during the early part of the
second day.. We should be able to
establish and maintain a schedule
of from 28 to 30 hours between New
York and San Francisco if this night
flying experiment proves out.
