Famed Sculptor Turns
PI0Sterer To Keep
Family From Starving

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 11.-Once
upon a time he fashioned the statues
of three nations. Now, Humberto
Pedretti, world-renoWned Italian
sculptor, is keeping the wolf from
the door" by working as a day la
borer-a decorative plasterer.
Even for the sake of my beloved
art | could not permit my wife and
five children to starve," he smiled,
taking another daub of cement and
applying it to the interior wall of an
office building.
Pedretti, once the toast of kings
ard queens who nose dat his bid
ding, now takes orders from a red
faced construction foreman.
Doesn't Complain
"Why not?" he unused, 81 have
been at the top. 1t is the equal
scheme of things, that should
travel to the bottom. Il will make
me appreciate and understand life,
my dear friend.
"And when l return to the heights
! may even more clearly portray, in
the masterpieces l know | am des-
tined to do, the things shat my eyes
and ears have missed"
A frown of irritation passed
across the sculptor's forehead. Dis
painfully, he gazed at the torn rem
nants of his smock, splashed with
mortar.
at is too bad, though, my friend,
for an artist to be subjected to
this" he paused and then pointed
to the freshly plastered wall. at

parent dislike for art has driven mo

"Americans like tawdry art. Some
thing that is decorative but cheap.
