 When a decision was to be made, Colonel Bob" sat in the background at the conference of Longs lieu tenants, appraised the situation from every angle and quietly passed his advice to the Kingfish.' Long respected Maestri's political judg- ment.
 Longs death elevated Maestri to leadership of the powerful Louis jana machine. He is credited with making young Dick Leche Cover, nor and with ironing out difference es that threatened the organiza- ton.

CT youngsters, Freddie was ring leader in the goings-on.
 By then he had been around quite bit-had gone to soccer and ice hockey games, gone on the school room tours to points of interest met Shirley Temple, Jane Withers, Jackie Searl and other film juv- eniles and was quite fellow. His teacher used English and American textbooks side by side giving him the new point of view while re-, taining the old. And Freddy was, as Aunt Myllicent says, very quick at adjustments.
 But then came the fight. It seems there was a boy who used to yell taunts over the Bartholomew wall, including: You're sapl" Fred die felt fight coming on-and com bat was arranged for next day.
 Hero Alter FiUe Rounds
 Miss Murphy thought fight would do him good, would get it out of his system" and so did Aunt Millicent. They raised no objec- tions.
 At the appointed nour, Freddie and adversary repaired to the va cant lot. The carnage lasted 25 minutes, or five three-minute rounds with two minute rest intervals, be- fore the enemy decided Freddie was no longer a sap. They are friends now. but
 Ray Sperry, who was referee, lost no time in getting back to the studio to spread the word around the set. Freddie was a hero when he arrived in person.
 Well, you see,' as Freddie told his erstwhile opponent, you should have known that I've been taking boxing lessons every day from Jackie Fields. Jackie's the former worlds welterweight champion, you know"

 A resolution adopted by delegates from "A countries says a way must be found to bring under impartial survey the economic grievances and other iniquities from which the anxieties and fears of nations grow and which account in large measure for the fateful race in armaments."

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 17.-There is no Horatio Alger touch to the success story of New Dreams new Mayor.
 Although Robert Sidney Maestri became a wealthy property owner before he was 30. it was no effort less, overnight result but a product of years of hard work, thrift and an uncommon judgment of land values.
 Twenty-eight years ago Maestri, l9, was earning $7.50 a week keep ing books. He sold furniture on the side and put his earnings into real estate. Today he is considered the city's largest property owner.
 Entered Politics As FaUOr
 He entered politics 12 years ago as a favor to a friend-Martin Behrman, who had been Mayor from 1904 to 1920 and in 1924 was attempting a comeback. With Macs tri directing his campaign, Behr- man was elected.
 Four years later fiery young lawyer named Huey P. Long had just been elected Governor. Be- tween Long and Maestri developed

 Co-featured with Dorothy Wilson, who enacts the role of the girl whom he loves and marries, Dunn gives the most colorful perform ance since he appeared in the male lead in Bad Girl" which catapult- ed him into stardom and which Miss Delmar also authored

HOLLYWOOD. Cal, Sept. IT, After two years of Hollywood, Fred die Bartholomew has become. com pletely one of the gang, and as nearly "Americanized" as an Eng lish boy could be.
 Some say it was working with that young "toughie," Mickey Room ey, and that equally audacious fel- low, Jackie Cooper, in a picture called "The Devil Is Sissy
 Others insist, like his Aunt Myl- licent and his teacher, Miss Mary Murphy, that it is merely the re- suit of Freddie's aptitude for quick adjustments.
 Fight Made Him
 But mostly the completition Of this Americanzation process is at tributed to Freddie's famous fist fight, his first in Hollywood-and his last of record
 When Freddie came here to make David Copperfield" he was the pro- verbal stranger in a strange land and he was 10 years old besides He came with a scholarly back ground and an ability to sling null ti-syllable words in his clipped Eng fish accent, to talk like a grown up when occasion arose, or to play like kid at every opportunity.
 He was decidedly cricket but he was different. He was a little gentleman in an Elton collar a curly-haired tyke entirely surround ed by American slang, American skyscrapers, strange American sports and numerous other American phe- nomena, including children.

'RAFFLES'IS
 'CH|vALROUS;'
 GOOD BURGLAR

LONDON, Sept. 17-"Raffles, a real-life counterpart of the fa- nous character in fiction, is back in prison once more-and his chi valrous confession has saved a maid in distress.
 The maid, a domestic servant in country house, had her good name restored when Rallies" cheerfully admitted burgling her house along with whole series of other rob berries.
 Previously she had been dismissed, under suspicion of theft. Now she is back in her old job.
 Rallies" otherwise Anthony St. George, alias Arthur James Wilkin- son. was up to his old tricks when police caught him = burgling the country homes of aristocrats. The victim in this case was Lord Glen dyne.
 St. George is getting little grey now. He's been at it a long time, running around from one fashion able country estate to another one of the most sought-after men in England-since 1924 But he's just as dapper, just as polished and pleasant-voiced as ever He stood at the dock with his smart-cut lounge suit faultlesSly pressed, his hair brushed sleek anc glossy and an old-school tie-the badge of a gentleman in England perfectly knotted.
 And when the judge sentenced liim to twelve months. Rallies dipped him a bow with the punc- tilious grace of an Elizabethian courier.
 St. George won his soubriquet of Rallies of the River" years ago when he robbed a luxurious house. boat and played host at gay par ties attended by actresses, cele- brities and smart society.
 Between times. Rallies" made nocturnal prowls around the coun- (ryside in search of loot to buy champagne for the next party
