But tt has not! ‘The shipping board today ts keep ing on the payroll huge staffs of employes, in some cases 20 times the Recessary number. The board has 450 employes at Landon. Twenty men could efficient: Jy handle the whole European opera. tions of the board, Board offictals admit that CONGRESSMAN MAS FIGURES A force of 120 still is maintained ft Boston. Only five shipping board YVesels have sailed from that port fm the whole history of the organi. gation. Several hundred employes are on | the rolls at New York. Their duties could be handled by 20 men. ‘These figures come from a con gressman who ts in a position to know something about board affairs. Inquiries at the board headquar at ters apparently struck officials tn a tender spot. A high shipping board executive @ediared he had no idea how many ‘were employed at London, Boston or New York. He referred the corre spondent to another official in a building two blocks away. ‘This official said he had the fig ures but added that it might cause him trouble if they were given out LOEW’S PALACE HIP New Pisying: Werth Wayten Four; Lyle & Emerson; Lilian Biegler & Company; Burt Adier; Lamb @ Geedrich.

Nine out of ten will Chin Chow” or “Mecca dite.” But his greatest drama—in which the New York producer i» himself the hero—ia not for the public. On this be has lavished expenditures with a more prodigal hand than on any of hia stage productions, It fe the drama of a son's search for his parents. For three years and a half Morris Gest has been struggling to rescue his father and mother from Russia. Four times he has crossed the ocean in his efforts to reach tfiem. Terror, hunger, sickness, want, were the lot of the parenta—just over the line. Wealth, comfort, health and hap piness were the gifts the son, only a few miles away, had to offer them. For Gest, on his last trip, was within 20 miles of them, Now Gest has received word that his brother, with his wife and child, lhad escaped and were in Warsaw. | The parents were still in Odessa. The cable added that, despite much | money Gest had forwarded, his rela- | tives were penniless, T can't give up hope,” says Gest. “I am encouraged that father and mother are in Odessa and I have es tablished some communication, “But you can’t imagine what it in to have plenty and know that the mother who brought you into the world and cared for you as a child, is suffering, or that the father who you out on life with his blessing, {9 starving.” Fifteen years ago Morris Gest, now one of the world’s largest the. atrical producers and son-in-law of David Belasco, was just beginning to get @ foothold on the ladder of Morris Gest’ s ‘Big Drama Seeks to Riccue Parents Morris Gest, All thru his career his great devo. tion to his parents has been a dom inant trait. “I had planned to bring them to this country, but then the war came,” he says, “When we leave our home to start on life we never know where Destiny is going to lead us “I have found that the man or | fame. woman who keeps the memory of his mother and father alive in his stimulated b; Mexicoand American oll men relative to t the agreement between atured the early tradini n Petroleum Equipment high at $9, u p by the off advance.
