4 Social Success

MIR KEELY'S mission to Shelby was a distinct
1F1 social and professional success. He rather
leaned to bigshots and allotted his beds to those
who seemed likely to do him the most good in the
papers but his dinner parties quite democratic
He invited ordinary journeymen and even yearlings
to dine with him and the meals were memorable be-
cause Shelby a T-bOne town and his private chef

jim Keely whom the newspaper hands never had
been permitted to know before. He told stories well
and he had had some amazing experiences in his own
time reporter in the west.

YUGOSLAVIA-LAND OF REVOLT
RY MILTON RRONNER
SEA Service European Manag

MA Service European Manager
T ONDON, oct. 15.-Born out Of
IL the worlds greatest conflict
and hailed as a nation that at
last gave freedom to the millions
of south Slays who had struggled
in vain through centuries for lib
erty, Yugoslavia yet is a seethlng
mass of clashing populations, as
diverse in culture, religion, and
aspirations as the heterogeneous
groups that made up the shat
tered Austro-Hungarian empire.
Revolt has brewed among the
minorities almost since the day
that the former Austrian prov
inces united with Serbia in 1918
to form the new monarchy.
And this spirit of revolt may
burst into a fame that will sweep
the country, kindled by the pistol
shots that ended the life Of King
Alexander I in Marseille, France.
Seven areas fused to form
Yugoslavia, with a territory of
5000 square miles and a popula-
ton of 100000. Into this union
came Serbia, Montenegro, the for
mer Austrian provinces Of Bosnia,
Herzegovina, and Dalmatia; the
former Hungarian province Of
Croatia Slavonia; Slovenia, and
the Voydovina.
The dominant partner was Ser
bia and from the outset the Serbs
have tended to regard the other
areas as subordinate provinces,
needless Of the lesson taught by
the fall of the Austro-Hungarian
empire.
ID EsENTMENT has grown to
IN revolt, speedily crushed, time
after time. But in 1929 King
Alexander 1 struck ruthlessly. A
coup d etat eliminated in estab-
lishment of a new constitution in
which there was only one ma
tional party with Alexander as
dictator. And into prison went
rebel leaders, and many of them
remain there.
The fire of rebellion burns most
fiercely in Croatia, whence came
the assassin, Petrus Kelemen.
Surprising the Serbs in culture
and economic development, the
Catholic Croats of Croatia Slav-
onia and Dalmatia, numbering
three millions, clamor for auton-
omy. But always Alexander had
refused.
With less vigor, other national
tiles within Yugoslavian borders
have demanded tightening of the
Serbian yoke, but futilely. But
always this diversity of races and
their aims hangs as threat over
the royal palace at Belgrade, as
the Serbs rule over Croatians,
Dalmatians, Montenegrins, AL
banians, Bulgarians, Macedonians
and SloveneS within their borders.
Il
A BEAUTIFUL land, primitive
IA and picturesque, is Yugo-
slavia. This very primitiveness is
its great attraction for the trav-
eler who seeks his recreation
where few overlapping tourists
pass and where a dollar or a
pound still will buy a reasonable
amount of the native money.
But blended with the primitive
there is a startling air of mod
ernity at its best in many parts
of the south Slav country.
For example, there is Bled,
pearl of mountain lake, $500
feet above sea level, surrounded by
the Slovenian Alps, some of which
tower to nine thousand feet.
Here was the summer home Of

mended action covering invest
ment trusts and banking and pub
lie utility holding companies and
suggested that federal incorpora-
ton might solve these and other
corporate ailments at the same
time.
The federal power commission
has been on record for two years
in favor of regulating utility hold
ing companies, and the federal
trade commission has amassed
formidable pile of evidence Illus
trating the need for such action.
President Roosevelt went on rec
ord for utility holding company
regulation during his 1882 cam
paign, but has not urged it upon
congress since being in Office. He
probably will do so next winter.
If he does not, the senate may
initiate its own action.

A NATIONAL incorporation

government powers similar to

Regulation Of investment trusts

DATTLE-SCARRED Jim Reed
ID is in the political arena
again. and no one in the middle
west is being watched more close
~ by the political prognosticators
of the administration.
Reed can, if he wants to, wreck
Democratic chances to capture a
Republican senate seat in Mis-
souri,.
The reason for Jim's change OF
heart. his constant vituperation
against the New Deal, has puzzled
old senatorial friends who know
him as a rabid campaigner for
the under dog.
Jim jumped from the modest
salary of a senator to the status
of a millionaire.
First, he made a fair-Sized for
tune practicing law. On top Of
this, his brother died, leaving him
several public utility companies in
Iowa. Finally, his new wife has
made over a million as big-time
dreSSmaker.
A real noveau richie, any gov
eminent move to dip into income
makes Jim see red.
THAT may explain his state
i ment that there IS no real
unemployment in United States
except for people who didn't want
to work.
That also may explain the tele-
gram Reed sent his old friend
Bennett Clark. The senate was
considering shifting the electricity
tax burden from the consumer to
the utility. which, of course. hit
Reeds companies in Iowa. SO he
sent a six-page, single-spaced
telegram of protest to Senator
Clark.
Had any one sent such tele-
gram to Jim Reed in the old days
he would have stepped on the
floor of the senate and exposed
the sender.
