At the same time Bartbelmess ' characterised as unfair the tac- ties used by Miss Hay over the enstody of the child. She was ntctured la news stories from New York Christmas day as teat ' ed by a Christmas tree waiting f for the child, only to receive telegram from her ex-husband that little Mary would not arrive for sereral days. ' ' "We separated !n May, 125.' be said. "The child's mother le her when she waa only tbr years old. She left the child flat. "Eventually we agreed the was to hare the baby six months ana I an equal time. In October that year the child's mother took her and kept her fire months. Since then sh has had her at one time for four-months and 'another for two. Each time she sent the baby - back of her own free will. . "Finally, a few months ago. told her she bad never exercised her rights had never kept the child for the full time and I thought it was inadrisable to be shipping her back and forth across the continent. "I didn't send the little girl before Christmas because she seeded some new clothes. The difference In California and New .York climate demanded different clothes. Another reason was she bad a severe .cold and I did not want her to go east in such a con dition. l "The baby didn't want to go. he hag told me so many times. "I hare never said her mother was unfit to care for her, but I certainly j feel I hare her interest at heart more than her mother has."

All Capital Outlays Pruned From Budgets "In view of the economic con ditions within the state it was the feeling of the board that the ex penditures to be made from state sources In the blennium 1931 and 1932 should.be held within the mounts provided by the state during; the blennium 1929 and 1930. In order to do this-it was necessary to eliminate from the board's budget all capital outlay requests regardless of their neces sity, with the exception of the one contingent request for 150,000. "While no other capital outlay items hare been Included In the budget of the board, these out lays are urgently necessary pn the campuses of the state's insti tutions of higher learning. The building committee of the board has, by careful Inspection of these campuses, determined upon a min imum Hat of capital outlay expen ditures that should be provided tor within the coming blennium. "These items total S2.04C.71S. It will be noted that of this total $400,000 has been approved by the building committee to be met from student dormitory rentals in accordance with chapter 224, laws of 1929, which provides tor the sale of bonds for the erection of dormitories. The elimination of this $400,000 brings the amount listed for capital outlays from state sources to $1,040,712.
