To this end he seeks the advice of a self-styled professor of crim- nology, who operates a crime museum at the beach—a role played by the renowned Eduardo Ciannelli. Contemptuot of police assist- ance, Oakie plays a lone hand, de- spite the warnings of the studio publicity director (Ann Sothern), and the fact that seven attempts are made on his life. How Miss Sothern has Oakie (This is the | articles which bring into focus, ‘ the guide-posts to Hitler's per- sonality.) By MORGAN M. BEATTY AP Feature Service Writer If you don't like Adolf Hitler, you can find documentary grounds for believing he began his political career as a spy sent among com- munists by German army leaders. If you like him, you may look on his secret work as a high mission for the Fatherland A neutral investigator says Hitler was a member of a commission named by war veterans to investi- gate the post-war communist re- gime in Munich. There’s not a doubt. however, that the handsome corporal with the handlebar mustaches deserved the confidence of the soldiery. He got the Iron Cross for World War bravery. Twice he had captured. almost single-handed, a score or so of the enemy. Once he was blinded by gas, and once shot up by shrap- nel. And he certainly was ready at the drop of a hat to scream his hatred of the Russian system. Unquestioned Bravery Once communist officers were sent to Hitler's room to arrest him. He met them with revolver in hand, and drove them off, an act of un- questioned bravery. The incident got a whopping buildup in Munich beer cellars.

But, agrees Joseph, the day of the fabulous fortunes are no more That is, the fortunes of Wall Street By GEORGE TUCKER NEW YORK, March 30. — Gino DiViccel, a slim, olive-skinned Ttal- ian from the lower East Side, be- came a bootblack in the vicinity of City Hall last week. He is 14 years old and wants to grow up and be- come the head of a shipping com- pany. Bootblacking, he believes is an excellent springboard to suc- cess if you work at it. Well, I think he's got something there. The Horatio Alger heroes weren’t all shadow-fiction. It may surprise you to know that fortunes have been made by men who wicld the little flannel rag. New York, af- ter all, is a vain, half-garrulous old dude with fine airs and spends an aggregate of $400,000 a week having its shoes shined. He has approximat- ely 22,000 boys working for him. In past years the most successful shoeshine kings have been Tony Asti, who gobbled up the concession in the big office buildings, just s corporations now buy the hat check- ing concessions in hotels and night clubs, and Tony Lauria.
