 MT. Loeb was prominently men toned for appointment to a place in the cabinet of President Taft. That having failed to materiali2e, he was named Collector of the Port of New York and filled that position during the term of President Taft.

 Retiring from politics with the advent of the first Wilson adminis- tration, MT. Loeb became associat- ed with the Guggenheim interests as managing director of their prop critics.

LOVE IS A SONG

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Sept. 20 - Cperatic Helen Jepsons introduce ton to movie work was typically filled with annoyances. Miss Jep- sen, slim and comely, and Charles Pullman, also from the Met, were principals in the first and only scene of the first day of "Goldwyn Fol- lies"
 They were doing a scene from La Traviata a'-doing it over and over. The setting was beautiful, like Miss Jepson, whose dark blue even- ing gown was the most vivid spot of color on the stage. The other wo- men and the background players all wore pastel shades, making it cas- fer for the color camera to pick out the star.
 Don't Act Like Stars
 Kullman and Miss Jepson were singing with full orchestra. But things went wrong at least 10 times while I watched and listened, and the two singers would start anew. The lights went on and off time and again, being saved during waits. But neither Miss Jepson nor Kull- man acted like an opera star Both smiled, sat and sang on order. For all I know they're still there, still meeting the thousand and one tech nical obstacles of merchandising but at least Goldwyn's $2,000 600 extravaganza has been launched.
 Every picture about Annapolis has that scene wherein the upper classmen twit the freshman and make him go through farcial antics for their amusement. Hold Elm Navy!" is no exception. We find John Howard giving elaborately ser

Beau Brummell's Nerve.

Beau Brummell, Britain's leader of
fashion, died in 1870, but the world is
still chuckling over his escapades and
colossal nerve. Asked by beggar for
penny, he said he never heard of
such coin, Here's quarter" Re-
turning from trip abroad friend
inquired what scenery pleased him
most, and ringing for his man, he said,
Pray, tell his lordShip what scenery
We liked best" But the climax of his
impudence was the meeting of the
crown prince and heir to the throne,
walking with a duke, and saying to
the duke, Who's your fat friend?" at
time when the heir to the throne,
his former chum and pal, was angry
with him.

Harry S. Wender. local attor.
ney. who represented the South.
west Citizens Association, also
entered plea at the closing ses.
sions for a status quo in the
fares. He indicated that the
poorer people could not pay more
money for transportation. and
that the company should first
come into the hearings with
clean hands by rendering eff
cient service before asking a
boost in fares.
The testimony Of these and other
citizens who have appeared before
the Public Utilities Commission
during the hearings have been
consigned to the record, and it
will be at least two months before
any decision is made.
Within 80 days the Capital
Transit Company, Public Utilities
Commission engineers and civic
groups will file additional briefs
but there will be no additional
argument.
The hearings are closed, and the
decision as to the street car and
bus rates for the District is now
in the hands of the Public Utili
ties Commission.
