Painter, y Admits Killing
 Girl Aged 4

NEW YORK, Aug (AP)-Si- mon Elmore, 57-year-old WPA project house painter. with a po- lice record of drunken hrawling and. wife beating, was reported by police to have confessed to the;, murder of 4-year-old Joan Kuleba near South Beachs $. l. He also confessed to an attempt ed criminal assault upon the child, the police said.
 Elmore, a hard sullen-appear- ing man, startled the summ CT colony at South Beach by appear ing in the rear of a group of cottages lining the marshland and announced that he had found the body of the Kuleba child. His announcement was made while policemen were grapping in the Narrows of South Beach for the body ofA the girl who had been missing since the morning of the day before after she had gone to the beach from the nearby home of her aunt, Mrs. Grace Lesandi.
 Little Joan was strangled with the shoulder straps of her red bathing suit and left face down in the cellar door of the aban- doned shack in the lonely marsh. She was the only child of a Man hattan electrician of small means and was extraordinarily vivacious and attractive.
 Elmores confession is reported by detectives to have been made after he had been confronted by William Prick, a chauffeur. The chauffeur told the police he had seen Elmore with Joan on the beachfront at South Beach be- tween l2:l2 and 12:15 pm. Thurs day afternoon. Elmore was walk ing south along the beach hold ing the child by the hand, Prick said
 Prick said that he paid little or no attention to the child and the man at first. Yesterday, how ever, he saw the picture of the child and another of Fillmore in a newspaper. He was certain that they were the two he had seen on Thursday
 When taken to face Elmore, he identified him without hesitation as the man he had seen with the child.
 When Elmore heard Prick ident ify him he showed the first signs of emotion that he had display ed since he was seized. He flush ed and broke into sobs. q can't stand it any longer. I want to confess he said.
 While the police declined to give out exact quotations from the story that they say Elmore told, enough of his reported ad- missions were given to reporters to permit more or less accurate reconstruction of the story which the police call his confession.
 Fillmore said he went to South Beach from his home at about II o'clock Thursday morning. He

was neither noble nor Slav. He
was simply friend whom Rembrandt
cajoled into his studio where he had
turbans and other properties" which
he used to dress up sitters to make
them famous characters of history or
fiction. Rembrandt painted the great
est series Of portraits of all time. He
was fond Of painting himself, 81 self
portraits being on record. The recent

important men, he put half their faces
In shadow and their vengeance ruined
him. Then his dead wife's relatives
tried to take away his son Titus and
the legacy she had left him. So he
moved into the slums. but there he
created most Of the works which have
made him immortal.
Fox and Wolf Hunt" by Rubens-
This shows the life Rubens loved to
paint. Only nobility and members oY
society were fitting subjects for his
brush. He was truly q master In the
grand style; large pictures, grandiose
subjects. robust expression distinguish
his monumental work. Peter Paul
Rubens was the greatest painter of
the human female body that ever
lived. Painters worship his pictures,
but the impressive size and weight Of
his women are less popular with the
masses. This Dutch painter. who was
also an ambassador, first to Spain and
then to England, had an income of
500 day. His studio was paint
ing factory" 40 or so artists working
under him painting parts Of many of
his pictures. He left 5000 paintings,
more In oil than any other painter.
Avid for culture, he had someone read
to him while he painted.
Young Woman With Z Water jug"
by Jan Vermeer-
Jan Vermeer was the painter of
light" His favorite subject WIS q
woman In the light of a window.
Lemon yellow and turquoise blue col
ors are in nearly all his paintings
His pictures are so much alike that it
Is fortunate that there are 50 few Of
them in existence. Many we're lost
in q shipwreck 800 years ago, 50 q
Vermeer is one Of the rarest and most
valuable objects of art In the world.
Only 81 Of them are known and II
one were offered for sale, it PROBABLY
would bring q million. This painter
Is regarded by many as the most per-
feet technical painter that ever lived.
Each Of his works Is nawless.
Bohemian Girl" by Franz Halls
The painter Of laughter" was 4
painter OF portraits and nothing but
portraits. He loyed the noisy tav-
ems Of Holland and was their sbest
customer" He painted many pic
lures under the influence of LIQUOR
and The Bohemian Girl" may have
been one OF them. for it looks as if it
was turned out during the shortest
possible time. 1t has nothing OF the
labored or the artificial about it. It is
fresh, spontaneous, impermanent.
Halls became the leading portrait
painter Of Holland, but before his
death, had sunk into poverty and had
to appeal to the city for aid. Given
coal and some money. he was allowed
to paint a strange masterpiece, The
Governors OF the Aims House." SUBJ

SURVEY LAUNCHED
Brookings Institution Given
100000 to Finance
Complete Study.

The Brookings Institution Is en-
barking on . thorough study Of the
relationship between Government and
industry, it WAS revealed last night
in an announcement from Pittsburgh
that the Maurice and Laura Falk
Foundation had awarded the insti-
tuition 100000 to finance the survey.
DR.. Leverett S. Lyon, executive
vice president of the institution, who
will direct the study, said last night
that the survey will not concern it
self merely with the current relation
ship, but will trace development of
such connection through the Nations
history. The objective, he said, Is
constructive rather than critical find-
ing on which future public policy
might be recommended.
According to the announcement of
the Falk Foundation, the Brookings
Investigations will cover Federal and
State activity in the regulation of
monopolistic industrial practices. pro-
duction of governmental agencies in
competition with private enterprise,
governmental promotion Of special
interest groups such as consumers and
labor organizations, and support OF
selected industries such as the coal
industry under the Bituminous Coal
Act.
Research also will be made to deter
mine the effects Of governmental meas
ures on prices, volume Of production.
wages and hours, labor conditions, the
flow Of capital and returns on money
invested in industrial enterprises.
In announcing the grant, Director
]. Steele Cow Of the foundation said:
THE growth Of Governments inter-
est and participation in industrial AZ
fairs has been especially marked in re-
cent years. The direct and indirect in
fluences Of legislative acts, government
tai regulations and the social programs
OF Government on economic affairs are
deep and far-reaching. >"
DR.. Lyon said the grant is effective
Tor two-year period but that it Is
hoped to complete the work sooner.
Consideration already has been given
to the approach and the scope Of the
inquiry, he said, with the likelihood
that two or three more research ex-
perts will be added to the present staff
OF the institution to expedite the work.
