heard of rate. The left-overs took
to opening little shops and get
ting jobs as walters and chau1-
feurS.
With them came many pre-
tenders to nobility, with fake
titles, monocles, heraldic symbols
on their haberdashery and pedi-
grees too deliberately certified to
be convincing.
They fooled the burghers, get
ting money, soft jobs and wealthy
brides, greatly to the dismay OF
the authentic princes and dukes
and duchesses, who had pioneered
the new field only to see it taken
over by self-made and Self-titled
noblemen.
Hence the new "Nobleman's
Club" formed in New York to
safeguard legitimate titles, expose
the fraudulent and get the real
blue blood clear from the baser
strains.
They will weed out the 5000
genuine titled aristocrats in the
city from those of more dubious
brands, providing interested per-
sons with accurate data in field
which Consumers Research does
not cover.
DUBIOUS TITLES
The supposed foreign nobility
in New York has been estimated
at from 10000 to $4,000. That
leaves quite a spread for make-be-
lieves above the above estimate Of
5000. Undoubtedly there are quite
a number of personable foreigners
still making pleasant social sue
cess in New York, long after their
patents of nobility have been shot
full of holes. The engaging prince
Mike" proved that our native
gentry doesn't care so much about
the actual genuineness of the title
so long as it's holder is plausible
and amusing.
Even before the start Of the
depression, European noblemen
in the U. S. A. were beginning
to buck hard times. From 1925
down to today, want ads in the
newspapers are of quite common
occurrence.
Incidentally, one baron, an
Italian nobleman of sound title,
put on a high pressure sales
campaign in Boston, in 1928,
trying to sell his title for $780,
600. At last accounts there were
no takers.

bought foreign titles, although

SANTIAGO DE CHILE

Visitors to the west coast OF
South America invariably bring
home vivid reminders of Santiago
de Chile, not so much in the form
of tangible souvenirs, but in inter
esting comparisons and bright
memories.
Here is a city that is not only
the political capital but a business
center as we'll. It has all the
charm and social life always found
at a political and diplomatic cen
ter, plus the hustle, hustle and en-
terpriSe that invariably marks a
commercial district. Great, new
commercial palaces draw more
comment than do the glorious old
buildings that were erected at the
behest of Spain.
Typical of the magnificent
structures of the old days is the
building that is now the official
palace of the presidents of Chile.
It's glowing, tiled courtyards, heavy
iron-studded doors and enormous
richly decorated rooms all tell a
vivid story of Colonial Spain at
its zenith.
UP-TO-DATE CITY
But the new banks, the offices
of the shipping and nitrate inter
ests tell a new story of the power
Of modern business and enter,
prise. Chile is up-to-date in other
things, too. For over 10 years sick
ness payments and old-age pen
sions have been in effect and
more legislation along these lines
is pending.

Finding Jobs

Local welfare and relief officials have been forced by
the action of Congress curang relief funds to reduce
the number of individuals relief and also to cut the
number of employees administering relief
Judging from the remarks of welfare workers and
those especially interested in the relief problem neither
the number employees the number of cases would have
been cut at this time except for the arbitrary reduction
in the appropriation and the limitation placed on the
amount to be expended for administrative purposes.
THERE ARE MANY WAsHINGTONIANs HOW
EVER, WHO, WHILE NOT WISHING TO CREATE
HARDSHIP FOR THOSE WHO ARE WITHOUT
WORK, ARE CLEARLY OF THE OPINION THAT
SOME ACTION MUST BE TAKEN TO REDUCE THE
VAST RELIEF LOAD BEING CARRIED IN WASH
1NGToN.
They ponk out that business here in almost every line
is booming.
The Government payroll, largest single item in
local business, is at high peak; retail business is
shouting steady and important gains
YET with all these induces pointing to prosperity the
relief load continues at high point
THE LAYMAN SIMPLY DOESN'T UNDERSTAND
WHY, AND THAT IS THE REASON THAT THE
PLEAS OF THE WELFARE WORKERS FALL ON
WHAT MAY SEEM TO BE STONY GROUND.
Despite the reductions in the number of welfare en-
ploye there would to be enough left to tackle the

} topography of Santiago de Chile.
One is Santa Lucia hill in the cen
ter of the town.
Close by is the very smart shop
ping district with its imported
American sports clio thes and
French fashions and de luxe per
fumes. The 400-foot hill is dotted
all along with bridges, roads, path
ways and walls. It is a rather
strange-appearing hill, but 1t is
typical of the contrasts that mark
Santiago.
At the other end of the city is
a much sleeper incline, almost a
small mountain, known as Serro
San Christobal. Several fine
broad roads and boulevards lead
to this hill.
TYPICAL
The Alameda de las Delicias Is
wonderful park and driveway that
is typical of the new Santiago
since it wrested away much Of the
commercial power that once be-
longed to Valparaiso. Once a river
flowed where this magnificent
thoroughfare now stands. The
land was reclaimed and the two
mile park and double driveway
built, splendid piece of engineer
ing and enterprise.
One can wander for hours
through the streets, turning into
many old Spanish houses with
flower-filled patios, Splashing
fountains and, of course, the in.
evitable overhanging balconies.
And for contrast one turns to the
new buildings that radiate from
the centra' plaza now in process
| of construction.

@QeCOraC1OQS 1Or American SO1uACAo
politicians, writer's and indus
trialiSts. The men on whom they
have been conferred have shown
great restraint in Haunting them,
but the fact is that America is
by no means so averse to titles
and nobility as its libertarinan
traditions would indicate.
Any one of our yeomen is apt
to brevet another with a high
sounding moniker on the slightest
provocation. Witness the annual
spawning of Kentucky colonies;
or the title Of Judge" clinging to
a man who may have been cross
roads justice of the peace 40 years
ago.
Note also the prevailing maya
zine rates for the memoirs of any
busted prince or princess who may
head this way. For years home
spun Congressman have been thm-
dering against this sort of defer
ence to foreign royalty. In 1881,
the rampant Tom Helm wanted a
congressional amendment to for
bid any American ever to accept
a foreign title.
Canada, from the beginning, has
had a public issue involving titles.
In 1919, it decreed their abolition,
but backslid two years ago and was
again on the kings acceptance list
after much public clamor for and
against.
KNIGHTHOOD
In England, there is a recurrent
uproar over the beStowal Of titles,
It is true that knighthood has been
conferred on whisky distillers, iron.
mongers, gamblers and vaudeville
artists, but it also has been given
with great discrimination to artists
and writer's.
Back in the days of the Crusades
and the Holy Roman Empire, it
was the rock-and-Sock battler who
was tapped with the Kings sword,
with knighthood bestowed with
this formula:
Rise, Sir John. 1 receive
thee into the noble company Of
knighthOOd. Be thou brave,
loyal and faithful until death,
Worship the Holy Trinity and
never fail to help damselS in dis
treSS."
In the days of Charles I and
Charles II, they were sometimes
bit careless in comforting knight
hood. Charles I, after drinking
five or six big flagons of sack, was
served with a huge roast beet
which was greatly to his liking,
Happily "jingled," he drew his
sword and knighted the chunk OF
beef. That was the origin of sir
loin steak, as the King had mum
bled thickly, 81 dub thee Sir Loin.
It was Charles II who knighted
the cutthroat Morgan, the bucca
neer of the Caribbean. They
brought him home in chains, but
he flashed a glitter Of gold and
jewels, intimating that he hac
other "bones buried" So they
turned him loose and made him a
knight.
Last year, Sweden supplied
happy little epilogue to all such
royal doingS by knighting
gnarled and wizened old farmer
because all his life he had worked
hard and had raised better COWS
and better turnipS than any Of
his neighbors.
