YOUTHFUL ROBBER
GETS LITTLE CASH
Collects SIS Cents From Bellboy
Steals Car, but Stalls It
and Flees.

A youthful robber, who posed as a
hltch-hiker to trap a victim early to-
day, must feel as if he'd been slapped
by the hand of avenging justice.
The youth, about 81 hailed George
P. Paulos. Mayflower Hotel bellboy,
near Porter street and Klingle road,
and asked to be driven to Route on
the road to Baltimore. A few min
utes later the robber forced Paulos
out of his car, searched him and
drove away
For his trouble the robber found
he had netted SIS cents and a wedding
ring, which Paulos said was of little
value, except as sentimental pos
session. To add to his grief the
bandit stalled the automobile about 20
yards away and was forced to flee on
foot.
Andrew Pizzini, 3003 D street, told
police two young white men grabbed
him at the west end of the P street
bridge last night and robbed him of

A. S A GREAT court lawyer, Rob-
" ert Houghwout Jackson Is
~ unique among the New Deals
a attorneys, the most brilliant
OF whom are valued Is legislative
drafters, policy-staters, researchists,
administrators, Constitution analyzers
and undercover composers Of briefs.
Combat before judge and jury thrills
Jackson, the small-town advocate from
upstate New York who became
Assistant Attorney General in charge
of antitrust litigation, and he has
no envy for the role Of legalistic
thinker which so well suits Tom Cor
coran, Ben Cohen, Jim Lands, Thomas
Eliot and Herman Oliphant.
Soon he will state the case for
the United States in one OF the most
gigantic suits in the country's history,
when the Aluminium Co. Of America
comes to trial, charged with being
a trust in restraint OF trade.
Jackson will be out to win. He has
consuming ambition coupled with
extraordinary ability which may yet
point him toward the White House.
He is only As and behind him is 4
long record Of public triumphs.
Mellon TaxEvasion Case
Won Jackson Fame.
The same love Of battle which
brought him fame in the Andrew
Mellon tax-evasion case and which
gained decisions for the New Deal
upholding the public utilities holding
company law and the social security
act might well bring him the votes
needed for, as first long step along
the political road, the governorship
OF New York
Jackson, who entered the Roosevelt
administration as counsel for the In.
ternal Revenue Bureau, joined the
Department of Justice at the behest
Of Tom Corcoran, who was planning
the defense IN 1885 OF the suit brought
by the Electric Bond IL Share Co. at
tacking the public utility act.
Electric Bond e. Share was beaten
in the Circuit Court of Appeals in
New York 1t was a Jackson as well
as Corcoran victory.
Appointment Gave New Deal
Capable Court PIeader.
JackSon'S arrival at the Justice De-
partment was happy day for the
New Deal program. Until then the
New Deal had lacked capable court
pleaders when it needed barristers Of
genius The combination Of a diff-
cult cause with indifferent advocacy
led act after act to be declared un-
constitutional
In the Supreme Court decisions
blessing social security and the labor
relations act Jackson's triumph is
manifest He did not carry the fight
alone. He had the collaboration OF
Charles Wyzanski. another brilliant
addition to the Justice Department,
who has since gone into private prac-
tice. But the tide has turned and
Jackson stays on hand to keep the
New Deals legislation dry
Yet Jacksons ability is not limited
to the court room. He is planner
as well as an advocate. Jackson, Cor
coran and Cohen were the Presidents

laws. His justlncation OF the Supreme
Court plan before the Senate Judiciary
Committee was considered its ablest
defense, and had he had more to do
with the planning Of the Supreme
Court bill itself its lot, perhaps, would
have been happier from White House
point Of view.
With the Supreme Court struggle
q memory, Jackson can turn now to
= lifelong lcve-busting trusts. Since
he set up law shop in jamestown,
N. Y, 23 years ago, Jackson has
damned large corporations. In an
interview he summed up his outlook
thus:
MY legal experience made me 4
liberal. As attorney for banks, saw
the manner in which country banks
were wrecked by the bonds sold them
by alleged big business. I refused
to believe the bunk of speakers sent
out by big business to address local
chambers Of commerce and other nag
waving corporations"
