NEW YORK, Dec. 6.-Eugene
". Brewster and Corliss Palmer
his "inspiration' girl today re-
tired 10 the seclusion Of their
Morristown, N. J. home.
It was made known that Brew
ster was deeply grieved over m
interview in which Mrs. Brewster
No. 2 told how her husbands
srdor cooled when he learned that
she was to become q mother.
Brewster refused absolutely to
discuss that or any other phase
Of his case today.
LOVES CHILDREN.
However. In q hitherto unpub-
lished interview that Universal Serv.
ice had with the Brooklyn publicist
and lawyer. he said:
love children very dearly.
The claim may be advanced that
Mrs. B. No. . thought I didn't.
The only thing that ! did object
to when ! learned that ! might
expect to be a father again was
her violent antipathy against be-
coming a mother. She, not I,
rallied against that situation.
1t is set forth by a person close
to Brewster that additions to his
family either when he was the
husband of Mrs. B. No. 1 or Mrs.
B. No. always were hailed with
delight by the publisher. In an
interview before a ukase OF silence
was proclaimed by his legal ad
visors he spoke of his four chill
dren with apparent delight. In re
counting the exploits Of his son
Raphael, he displayed q seeming
interest that many fathers lack In
sons achievements.
It was said by an authoritative
source today that Brewster, although
not contemplating any defense II

wife and in which she seeks SIS, ,00(
alimony, nevertheless will resist an,
attempt to bar him from access te

BATTLES FOR CHILD.
A friend quoted Brewster Al
having said when the first storm
cloud appeared on his amatory hori
zon:
Mrs. B. Number 2 can go. l can
easily afford to do without her
rather than do without Corl.ss.
But the chiid-well. ] have had a
hard battle to undergo not to hurt
him. l will do anything in the
world for him and in SO far as I
am able viii do anything to
smooth the path for Mrs. B. Num-
ber 2, for she simply doesn't under
stand me, herself. or anyone else.
1t was definitely proved TO per
s.stent questioners that Mr.. Brewstel
had paid but a hurried visit to hi
luxurious furnished sanctum IL
Brooklyn today and had then re
paired to Normandie Heights, Nor
ristown, where he has purchased I
home for his beloved Corliss an,
members Of his family and where h
maintains an apartment.
