What Others Think

John Dillinger's father and members of his family
appearing in person the stage of Indianapo
lis theatre this week. They attracting record
crowds
'T don't like to do it but need the money" said
the elder Dinger.
Fair enough. No should blame the notorious
outlaws father or members of his family. If the
American people willing to pay out good money to
make it profitable to capitalize family connections with
life of crime like Dngers, to encourage promoters
to take such attractions the road in competition
with legitimate and wholesome entertainment pro-
grams, then the American people have only themselves
to blame for the results.
If the glorifcaton of life of crime is to be made
financially profitable in this country those on whom
blame must properly rest the box office patrons
who contribute to such profts-Mankato Free Press.

THEY ALL DEPEND ON The

One of the best wsys TO look
at the railroad problem is in the
light of it's influence on other 10.
dustries and ON employment.
No industry, in normal times,
is go heavy o purchaser of ma
terials and supplies as the rail.
roads. The bulk of their pur.
chases are from the heavy indus
tries-those which provide the
most jobs and Investment oppor.
tunities, aud. which touched the
deepest lows of depression.
Steel, iron, coal, lumb Der, chemi.
cals-all of them have depended
ou the railroads for a heavy per-
centage of their total sales. By
The same token, many employees
of these industries have been
dependent on the railroads for
their jobs.
The railroads themselves are
among the heaviest employers
Of the nation. 10 addition, much
of their labor is highly skilled,
and commands wages that are
far above the average. No class
Of workers is better paid; and
most of the great lines have
pension systems whereby the
rail workers are assured of an
income in their old age. Not
the least menacin0 factor in the
rail problem is that the very
existence of the pension system
has been imperiled-no business
can pay out money it hasn't got.
These few facts serve.to iudi.
cate why so many believe that
legislation which. will give tha
rails fair deal is absolutely vi
tai to the recovery Of all basic
industries. We can't starve our
great basic industries and ex-

Of the Apple Blossom festival at
Winchester, many Of her riding
and hunt friends came up to
town and found their way to the
Heigh-Ho on Thursday and Fri.
day nights. Dupont Circle and
vicinity looked kinda horsey.
Lenore Uric, who has been en-
tertaining in Pagan Lady" at
the Belasco Theater this week, also
dropped in with Mabelle Jen-
nings for a whirl on the dance
floor. Miss Lenore has what it
takes to focus attention and was
the cynosure Of all the Heigh-Ho
regulars. Richard Whitney, presi-
dent Of the New York Stock Ex-
change, who has been advising
Congress on the regulatory legiS-

rhythms of the Macias band and
Marty Rubin's snappy lyrics.

Merry at roika
You can't be too careful of these
hot-blooded Poles.
The other night, Gen. Josef
Haller was a guest at the Russian
Troika. He'd just visited the
White House, laid a wreath on the
Unknown Soldier, and been photo
graphed all over the place.
So a party of forty Of his
countrymen and other friends
and himself capped off the cele-
bration at the Connecticut Avenue
spot. All was going very merrly
until the floor show went on.
Then out came Serge Apagoff,
the whirlwind dancer, wno'S just
insured each leg for $4,000.
Abagoff brought his usual quota
of daggers and began that dance
of his.
When he came up to General
Haller's table with two daggers
pointed, menacingly At the group,
it was too much for one gentle
man. He calmly pulled out a
revolver and said he'd fight it
out with Serge. It took mite Of
explaining before he understood
that the apparent assault was
just part of the dance. I'll bet
those $15O,O0O pins of Abagoff
were shaking a trifle, too.
Speaking of the Troika, every
one wants to know who the mys'
terious nightly visitor is. He
comes. sits in far corner. Then
goes to the bandstand and plays
violin with the orchestra. Gives
the men ten dollars and leaves.
Who is he? Do you know?
That rotund gentleman you
may have seen during a Troika
session is Max Heimoff, sometimes
called the hermit of the night
clubs For Max spends practically
all of his time in the place.
Comes in at eight o'clock in the
morning, leaves at five the next
a. m. Never goes out, socially.
Friends finally persuaded him to
take an auto ride last Sunday.
That'll serve as his amusement
for the next six months. What
a man Heimoff.
