Meteorological Report
LONDON (UP) Th Earl of Rom
berry. possewsor of ona of the finest
ixt collections tn England, hu come
forth to settle "for once and for all"
an old controversy about the authen
ticity of two George Washington por
traits, painted by Stuart.
The dispute arose when It was an
nounced that Knoedler's, famous
London auction house, had acquired
the original of Gilbert Stuart's paint
ings of "The Father of Hts Country."
The Earl of Roseberry replied, rath
er tersely, that the Knoedler canvas,
painted In Philadelphia In 179S on
commission of Samuel Vaughan, who
was a friend or Washington, was by
no' means the original of Stuart's
Washington portraits.
"X possess a letter written and
signed by George Washington mak
ing an appointment to sit for the
portrait and there is a footnote
signed by Stuart on March 0. 1823,
saying that this was the only original
portrait he ever made of Washington
t except one he owned himself," the
earl announced.
The one which Stuart referred ot
as retaining In his own possession is
a full-length portrait which has been
In possession of the Pennsylvania
Academy of Fine Art in Philadelphia
since 1811, the Earl of Roseberry atd,
"The other one, which Stuart's
fcotnote said was In the possession
of Samuel WllKams of London, has
since come into my hands." he added
London art critics, after examining
the facts, ruled In the earl's favor,
awarding him claim to Stuart's only
original portrait of Washington ex
cept the ona on view in Philadelphia.
After Stuart painted the president
In 1795 be proceeded, however, w

It Is usually one of these replicas
that appears at an auction. Andrew
Mellon is said to own one of
true replicas.

AT
NICE. France (UP) A Hindu's
hypnotic boldups with an "all-powerful
eye" which leads cashiers and
clerks to pay up without a murmur is
mysitylng the French Riviera.
A Hindu magician strolled Into a
travel office, gazed at the cashier un
til he submitted to hts will and
handed over 4000 francs (about $375)
from the till.
"I could not resist his eyes," the
cashier told the police.
On another occasion, the Hindu
walked Into a bank, threw a bundle
of ba nknotes on the coun ter and
asked the cashier to change them for
no'es of larger denomination. The
cashier found there were 100 francs
more than the Hindu 'had bp id.
"You are an honest man," the
Hindu said, "and as a reward I will
read your hand."
The cashier said the Hindu took his
left hand, gazed into his eyes, and
began ordering him to take money out
of the cash box.
"I felt I suddenly lost all my will
power." he said, "and It was only five
minutes after he had gone that I re
called I had given him money. I was
hypnotised."
A cashier in a hotel at Cannes told
a similar story. The Hindu Just
gazed at him and he gave up 880. It
would have been more, but that was
all there was In the till.
But the Hindu's greatest triumph
was to hypnotise a Riviera barman
Into giving him a drink without pay
tng.

PARIS (UP) The Paris tout
have formed a union.
Tipping "the winner of the next
race" for a small fee la no longer a
profession open to all comers.
Due to the depression, there have
been too many recruits In the Union
of tlpstera who infest the horse rac
ing tracks In Paris snd vicinity, so
the "old-timers" hsve banded to
gether to keep out the undeslrsbles.
The tipsters plan to Issue a special
union card, wltbout which no tipster
would be alloV'XI to "work." Racing
societies are ssld to be agreeable to
the project.
There la even talk of forming an
academy where apprentice tipsters
would receive a thorough training in
the proper way to "spiel," these
youngsters being allowed to take the
place of the oldsters who die or go
broke by backing their own tips.
"Tipping race winners and making
the public buy your tips is a fine
art." aald M. Polowlcz, president ol
the new union. "Not everyone can
do It, and lately we have had an In
vasion of novices, a variety of un
employed people of all kinds, and
plenty of Russian princes and gener
als and former cavalry officers, all
fighting for the few clients that are
atlll left to us, so we decided to keep
them out."
The usual fee for a "euro winner"
Is 1 or 3 franca (7 centa or 14 centa),
but the upper strata in the profes
sion, fellows who wear gray spats,
top hate and a pair of prism binocu
lars,, ask and get as much sa 10 francs
(70 centa) for "certainties."
