deft Lothario, who broke honey.
moons for new marriages and
''courted" constantly.
Three of his wives have been
found, and the latest revelation Is
that he paid ardent court to three
sisters simultaneously.
Paulette Lorayne Grafton, In a
statement copyrighted by Star COM
pany, analyses Grsftop's methods
as follows:
How does Don do TT The sting
Of my suffering is not so sharp as
that OF Peggy Davis or Ellen Nc
Intyre. ! am better able to snslyzs
the man and his methods than they
are.
Great on Mother Stuff.
"In the first place. Donald is
great on the mother stuff. see
that he took Peggy Davis mother
to live with them. have heard
that he obtained from her a photo
graph inscribed by her, To My
Dear Dom
His motto seems to be Get In
with the mothers
Another one of Don's methods is
his solicitous politeness. He always
rises when he meets a lady. When
he gets a crush on a girl she can't
walk from the Palace Theater to
the Hotel Astor. Don, the gallant
cavalier, must call a taxicab.
Don is Just as good at getting
jobs as he Is in getting wives. He
has held some jobs In which he
drew a salary Of 81 900 a week. but
he did not seem to hold them long.
He seems TO get tired Of jobs just
as he does of women. but he never
fails to get another one. wonder
who Is kissing him now and think
ing he is the greatest thing that
was ever born?"
Ethel Mary Muir, a dancer. adds
to the tales Of Grafton's courtships
this story:
When. after three years, during
which he visited me In almost every
large city was playing, / finally
and for the thousandth time told
Don that would not be his wife.
that he was too old for me, and
that / did not love him well enough.
he told me he would make me
jealous"
Owes II All to Nell.
ITO accomplish that purpose. he
paid court to my elder sister, Nell.
II was Nell who all along had kept
guardian watch over me. i would
have been No. had II not been
for Nelrs wise warnings.
80, when he sent he- flowers
and candy and told her he was
desperately in love with her and
wanted her to marry him, Nell be-
came angry and sharply called him
down.
Having failed there, he tried TO
win my younger sister. But she
laughed at him and called him
daddy. That made him so mad
he quit.
Then Nell one day learned Don
was on Long Island with Dolly
Lorayne. whom she knew. She
heard they were married.
"One day shortly afterward DON
telephoned us. He invited my sis.
ters to visit Miss Lorayne. They
accepted. He told them when they
went to his Long Island place that
he did not love Polly and thaq he
would divorce her to marry kne.
Nell told him what she thought of
n man who had proposed to her

three sisters at one time and was
counting when married.
During the three years we knew

WAGE CUT
United Press Leased Wire

CHICAGO, March 6.-Dcmand bv
railroads for an additional 10 percent
cut in wages of more than 100000
men, was considered today by the
United States railroad labor board.
The board at the same time heard
claims by shop crafts that they were
entitled to II per cent increase.
All classes of railroad men are af
fccted by the petition for the wage cut
except yard and train service men
They are negotiating directly with the
employers.
The railroads are requesting restora-
tion of practically the same wage scale
as was effective prior to creation OF
the railroad labor board in 1920.
The roads will be given five days to
present arguments sustaining their
contention that wages should be re
duced.
In circles close to The railroad
board, it was expected that at the con
clusion of the bearings the board will
cut wages of all railroad labor except
the train service brothcrhoods and the
yard men approximately 10 per cent
This would mean a total yearly droI
of more than $l00,000,000 in the pay
envelope of the railroad men.
