STARS SOB AT
LAST RITES FOR
DAVID BELASCO
Simple Services in Gotham
Synagog Attended
by 5000.
BY HARRY FERGUSON
United Press stan Correspondent

NEW YORK, May 18.-David Be-
tasco was buried Sunday by friends
and fellow workers in the theatrical
profession who said Of him that ''he
was the interpreter TO the American
people Of their own emotions"
They praised him as a man who
had-perhaps more than he himself
kneW-helped TO mold American
thought. man who fed the ma
tons eagerness for entertainment
by producing plays within the wide
range that lies between "The Girl
Of the Golden West" and cts a
Wise Child"
They praised the technical per-
lection he brought TO every produc-
ton with which he was associated,
no matter how shoddy the material;
and they lauded him for his seven
h ty-six years of labor which ended,
~ in the midst of many new plans, on
his deathbed Thursday.
5000 at Synagog
Five thousand persons we're in
and around the Central Synagog
where unpretentious ceremonies
we're held They included Lenore
Uric, the vivid, ck-haired
!. actress whom Belasco raised to a
pre- eminent place in the theater
. by giving her such vehicles as
Lulu Belle" and Nina"
Mayor James J. Walker, an in
innate friend Of the producer, was
there; so was Edward Childs Car
penter, who wrote many of Be-
lasco's successes; so we're Lee
Shubert and George NJ. Cohan,
Belasco's rivals in the theater, but
s. his close friends in the outside
world.
Cantor Isidore Wernstock chanted
two hymns, and then there was
silence broken only by restrained
sobs from the congregation. Miss
Uric dabbled at her eyes with a
b handkerchief, and her husband, Sid
ney Blackmer, slipped his arm
around her.
- Rabbi Jonah A. Wise delivered
a brief eulogy, telling how Belasco,
a Spanish Jew whose ancestors we're
. the Velascos of Barcelona and
whose name somehow became
anglicized to Belasco, was ardent
in the Hebrew faith.
Buried Near Daughter
The chief eulogy was delivered by
Edward Royle, the playwright.
Actors and playwrigllts," he said,
knew him well, and I believe an
actor considered himself a success
when he could say: 'BelaSco sent
for me today
For myself, I can only say: Fare
well. David, my friend, until we meet
again"
An organ pealed the funeral
song. and the procession, led by
Mrs. Morris Gest, Belasco's dauga-
ter. wound slowly out Of the sy11a-
gogUe. :,
Burial was in Ahawath Chesed
cemetery, Brooklyn, where Belasco's
other daughter is buried in a tomb
in which a flame burns perpetually,
because, when a child, she was
afraid of the dark.

ROOSEVELT
Capital WiSeacres Watching
Governors Moves on Relief;
His Plan Still a Mystery
BY GEORGE r. HOLMES


There is keen interest in the
Capital in the unemployment re-
lief program Gov. Franklin D.
Roosevelt plans to present to the
special session of the New York
legislature in few days.
Governor Roosevelt is considered
the foremost candidate for the
Democratic presidential nomina-
tion to oppose President Hoover
next year.
President Hoover has already
announced his program for deal
ing with the emergency.
The Hoover Plan
1t consists, as thus far revealed,
simply in mobilization Of local re-
sources, under governmental direc.
ton. He has appointed Walter
s. Clifford, successful executive of
the country's greatest utility or
ganiZation, and a distinguished
committee of three score outstand-
ing citizens to direct a national
drive for funds to provide jobs
for the jobless and relieve dis
treSs during the coming winter.
What is contemplated is a ma
tional drive. comparable to the
annual Red Cross roll calls or the
Liberty loan drives during the
war period.
Firm Against Dole"
II Mr.. Hoover has anv other
! plans in the making for meeting
the winter crisis they are yet to
be revealed. He has taken a firm
stanC against anything remotely
approaching "the dOle". or dip
ping into the Federal Treasury
for direct aid to the needy.
Governor Roosevelt, too, has
taken position in opposition to
the dole. But he has indicated
that he plans to go considerably
further than Mr.. Hoover in bring
ing the legislature into the pic
ture.
Plans UndisclOsed
Advices reaching Washington
from Albany indicate that Gov
ernor Roosevelt intends to call
upon the legislature for emer-
gency action, but whether this
will take the form of special
tax upon wealth or a direct ap-
preparation is yet to be revealed.
Friends of the Governor here
appear confident he will propose
remedies considerably more ad-
vanced than any the national
Government has proposed.
During the past few weeks the
White House has been fairly inun-
dated with demands that Con.
gress be called into special session
to deal with the economic prob
lens Of the coming winter.
No Extra Session
To all these demands President
Hoover has turned a deaf ear.
The White House reply to all in
quiries is that Mr.. Hoover will not
call special session under any
circumstances.
He will deal with the matter in
his own way when Congress regu-
larry assemblies on December 7.

Smoke was rolling from the hole in the
hill Going to the entrance, he found
the woman cooking on battered stove.
The cave. under steep cliff, with
jagged rocks for q ceiling and the bare
ground for q floor. was divided into two
compartments. In one of these was an
old wooden bed. Boxes served as chairs
and tables Boards were the other beds
The mouth Of the cave was walled up
with rocks. timbers and clay. But
when it rained, Mrs. Hinkle explained,
sometimes even the stones and the
boards that served as a door failed to
keep out the water.
And as the leaves are falling, the
trees no longer shelter the cave from
the wind, and so Mrs. Hinkle readily
consented when Farley said he would
take the little ones back to town"
Despite the hardships, the children
seemed in perfect health, Farley said.
